Reviews
The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The food was incredible and hot. The bread didn’t have the traditional GF taste (off-putting, weird texture).
If we are ever back in town, we will definitely order from here again.
They also have a little section of frozen goods such as cakes, lasagna, empanadas, etc all made there.
Dora’s Bakery & Bistro was inspired by the owners grandmother Dora Milan. Dora developed gluten free recipes that helped her feel better. At Dora’s Bakery and Bistro cofounder Ana Crolla has expanded on her husbands grandmother’s recipes, creating a full menu of gluten free food and desserts.
While I am not gluten free I am up for pretty much anything and I find that gluten free also tends to align with my weight loss goals so I was game to try them. They actually have a free parking lot in the back which is like finding a unicorn in Miami so that was a plus even though it took me three times to find the tiny alley entrance. My friend and I arrived a little before 5 and we were the only ones in the cafe. The menu features burgers, sandwiches, breakfast, chicken tenders, small bites, pizza, quiche, salads, pasta, cakes, pastries, bread, pies, and desserts. You can order at the counter from the menu but they also have a cooler of food you can heat at home plus cold desserts.
Dora’s is small but cute. We sat ourselves at the only table available which was next to the hot window. I had the small ham and cheese quiche. With a water and tip it was close to $20. My friend ordered the chicken tenders that were coated in tapioca. TBH they looked very thin and dried out. My quiche was ok but the crust was drier than a desert. I had a gluten free pizza somewhere else recently that could have made me happily give up traditional dough but the quiche crust at Dora’s had me longing for the flaky, buttery kind. I had to take a swig of water after every bite to get it down but the filling was tasty. After the quiche I passed on the desserts in favor of Sweet Melody’s but my friend bought a few things and they looked good.
If you have celiac disease Dora’s is a real find for croquetas, cookies brownies, cake pops and fresh-baked pizzas. It also caters to a variety of dietary needs, offering vegan, dairy-free and organic options. However as someone who can tolerate gluten, I personally found the food was not up to par for what they charge. Still I was happy that my friend was able to eat comfortably.
The smell of the bistro, ain’t great. The environment and overall atmosphere isn’t great either.
The mozzarella sticks are 19$ for 4. However, they were really good. Would recommend.
The chicken tenders were NOT good. My daughter couldn’t even break them with her teeth. My wife ate them because….we paid for them. They had an odd color to them, and shape. Would highly not recommend.
Fries that came with the tenders were good. Kinda hard to mess this up. Would recommend.
The dubia chocolates were also very good. I’m not sure how much they even cost, but my daughter’s enjoyed them.
The pizza was terrible. Very under cooked. We didn’t even eat an entire slice.
The $15 bread is the standout insanely overpriced item. Crumbly, poor taste, spoils quickly. Just buy a loaf at TJs, it’s better.
Other reviews have covered it, but don’t expect a ‘bistro’ experience. It’s a take out spot, and to-go items that need to be assembled or heated take a long time. There’s no atmosphere for relaxing & enjoying a meal.
The strawberry shortcake was delicious. the sugar cookie was also very good!
My daughter didn’t care for the cheesecake she stated it tasted just like cream cheese. ♀️
She also ordered the red velvet cupcake and said it was savory vs sweet and threw it away.
The place could use additional seating and/ or room. It was packed with only a couple families there. It’s quite pricey there.
The people working there were fabulous. Super friendly and helpful.
I saw some comments about flavor. Gluten alternatives typically don’t compare to gluten food, this place is SO GOOD for a gluten free establishment that’s not just rice, grilled chicken and beans. My 8 year old, who is a picky eater, ate everything without a single complaint.
We got onion rings and croquettes to eat in the car on the way home and bought frozen cinnamon rolls, beef empanadas, and ham croquettes to take home. They re-heat so well in the air fryer! So so so yummy!
I wish we could mail order the cinnamon rolls to our place on a weekly basis! We seriously would. I’ve tried so many different GF bakery cinnamon rolls and these are by far the best! They are not dense and chewy, they are soft and even a little flaky! Such a surprise!
We can’t wait to go back the next time we are there, and we stalk the page to see if they will ever offer frozen mail orders!
Beef empanada and chocolate brownie and the were all delicious!!!!
So nice to have some quality gluten free options around town
