We really enjoyed the desserts here! The flan and tres leches were delicious and not overly sweet. Definitely recommending it!

I loved this bakery when they first opened. In the last two months, I've visited 4 times. Each time the service was just horrible, to the point of being rude. The food wasn't worth it... not cooked evenly or consistently, you can by 4 of the same item and have them taste / cooked differently.Very disappointing to watch such a great start turn into something to avoid.I've been much happier with Ricon on Newberry.

Please come visit Las Americas Bakery! I absolutely love this place! If you’re looking for authentic Colombian/Venezuelan cuisine this is the place for you! There is a wide variety of different types of food to choose from! (I.e: soups, empanadas—better than Mi Apá!—chorizo (sausage), arepas, sandwiches, and MORE!) there are also bakery items, like Flan, Arroz Con Leche (rice pudding), and so much more.I recommend the Beef Empanadas, Chorizo & Cheese empanadas, and try their Arepas!If you want something sweet they sell “Chocolatina Jets” which are fun-sized chocolate bars or the Cocosette!This is a great place and I’ve always had a great experience here with food and serviceVegetarian options: They have vegetarian empanadas! And vegetarian options as well Dietary restrictions: They have vegetarian options available!Kid-friendliness: All servers have been sweet and kind to children!

This hole in a wall bakery is one of the best representations of Latin American baking in Gainesville. I bought 1 of everything on the front displays for my wife's birthday. Despite a slight language barrier, the owners are extremely welcoming and will do their best to bridge that gap with you. They serve a variety of sweet, savory, and mixed of both. They also have a hot menu. And the price is on point with everything! Their bakes are light and airy. The desserts are well balanced. The chocolate cake is perfectly layered and not overpowering. And for someone who isnt into sweets, this is its the perfect amount of sweet. This place is great for a quick dessert, lunch from their hot menu, or just want to bring back home a nice homemade loaf of bread for later. They are well deserving the 5 stars, if not more, and your taste buds. Make sure you ask for the sauces for your savory order, 100% worth it.

The pastries looked decent, however we went there and they would let Latino customers skip and not even say hello or acknowledge you if you're African American or white. Disappointed. Change your customer service.

Really nice people but I didn't really enjoy the food. I think it's just not my cup of tea.
