Appu's Cafe - Long Beach

We stopped here after two weeks working out in the Channel Islands eating mostly processed foods and wow, what a treat! So much flavor packed into the dishes. We had the mushroom masala and maharaja burrito and thoroughly enjoyed the healthiness and homemade quality of the food. The masala tastes like it could cure covid—rich and reviving. The mango lassi is spectacular! Thank you, Appu’s, for the very friendly service and a wonderful meal.

Amazing hidden gem! Food is fresh, delicious and healthy! I'm not even vegan and it was great. Owner is super friendly and wonderful.

Very polite a pleasant service Appu is informative kind, and the fresh food is vegan and delicious. He definitely has customer service as great as the fresh healthy and delicious food. Great first impression.

Very delicious and affordable! I really recommend Appu's. Yes it is in a medical office building, but it is worth seeking out this gem. The burger was a delicious twist on the formula, not like your standard veggie burger, full of great flavor and smooth consistency. The side Salas was fresh and equally full of flavor. The mango Lassi also was a delight. Service was friendly and attentive, outdoor seating is spare but nice. Eat here, you won't regret it!

Friendly owners, great menu and fresh ingredients! Hope to come back to try more of their food. This time I ordered the vegan Maharani burrito which was good, but the main ingredient was turmeric rice I prefer when there's a balance between rice and the other ingredients so I'll try the Healthy Mex burrito next time which supposedly is prepared with less rice.
