My wife and I took our kids here and we absolutely loved it. There is an excellent family that owns it--they are so nice. Enjoyed talking to them and loved the food. We went in to get a small, late lunch, but also got the small passion fruit pie, and now we are really looking forward to trying a lot of the other baked goods/sweets. Very good!

Really nice woman at the front helped us pick out our savory items. We got empanadas and they were great - thick, nicely fried, good flavor, tasty and not too hot sauce. I got the mocha cake. It was fluffy, soaked in syrup with plenty of not too sweet whipped cream icing. They have the bubble gum flavored soda that is hard to find, homemade fruit drinks, and a alcoholic fermented drink, among others. Cute store with outside seating available. Nice for a date or work lunch.
The place is beautiful and clean and the coffee is very tasty. Great service.

I wanted to try EVERYTHING- it was so hard to pick, but settled on the Arepas with shredded chicken and my daughter enjoyed the cachitos. ?

After having empanadas in Puerto Rico last year on a work trip, my wife and I thought we’d never find its equal back in the states. At Lemon Yellow, we found something better!!!The empanadas were hit and fresh. I had cheese and then ground beef. Both were crispy, hot and the perfect blend of savory sweet! By far the best I’ve ever had!!But it didn’t stop there!They had several other options and a bakery case of goodies! Everything I tried was a wonderful combination of light, fluffy, sweet, flaky! All the right flavors and textures in perfect harmony!!If you live in Tyler or you’re passing through, Lemon Yellow Latin Bites is an absolute must!!!
If we could've tried one of everything, we would've. Super disappointed that we were already full from breakfast because the savory menu sounds delicious. Highly recommend the tres leches, key lime pie, and alfajoras.
I Love This Place It’s Kinda Like A Hidden Gem Desert is so delicious!! 10/10 highly recommend!

The arepa and enpanada were next level! Plus they have some many great desserts I had my inner fat kid that he couldn't have one of everything. Can't wait to go back again!

I Stumbled on Lemon Yellow Latin Bites while out covering a feature for YTyler at another great place in the Mosaic district. I had the chicken salad. The flavor literally exploded on the tongue. Delish!! It’s a small little place, great for a bite of lunch or coffee and a pastry.
