I came here with my Colombian friend that helped me pick the best options so I could get a variety of items that she rated top notch. I love hotdogs and had to get the Colombian version of one. It's one of the most unique hotdogs I've ever had. It's topped off with garlic sauce, pink sauce, pineapple marmalade, crushed chips, mozzarella, and a boiled quail egg. Omg it's one of the BEST I've ever had! I died and went to culinary heaven. Trust me get one! We also ordered the empanadas, which were just as good. Among the other items we ordered we got a cheese and ham arepa, as well as the bandeja paisa. No complaints here but just praises as the food was savory and scrumptious! They do have a full bar with a variety of drinks to choose from as well as Colombian beers. I was too full to indulge on the desserts but the dessert bar was esthetically pleasing and smelled incredible! The service is great, very attentive. The restaurant gave a homey and cozy vibes. Dress code is casual. They do have complimentary parking. I am definitely coming back to enjoy and try more of the exotic plates they offer. It's not often you see Colombian cuisine, worth a visit!

Las Americas Cafe has been around for nearly as long as I've been alive - since 1982. This is an…read moreold, small, humble, hole-in-the-wall Colombian "cafeteria" (more like a restaurant and market) that has served as a sort of hub for the Colombian community in Atlanta for decades. Years ago, one of my former coworkers, of Colombian descent, recommended this place to me and I've also read about it online through We Love BuHi (IIRC). We visited this place for breakfast/brunch on Saturday and I saw firsthand why this business is still around: it's popular among local Colombians and Hispanics. Several groups/families visited around 10:30-11:00am to dine-in. At one point, the dining room was at capacity and the staff had to set up a temporary table in the market space for a family to eat at. I estimate the cafe can seat about 25 customers comfortably. It's not very big. I was looking forward to eating here, but came away underwhelmed with the food. Unfortunately, it just wasn't that good. There were also mix-ups with service/orders, though the staff, both online and in-person, were welcoming and friendly (so I don't like giving this place two stars). One of the best things about Las Americas are the prices. The food and drink are super affordable. Most items on the menu are under $7 which is incredibly cheap for a restaurant. However, you also get what you pay for. The food is fairly simple and basic. Our table ordered a variety of items off the breakfast menu and every dish that came out kind of looked the same. They were all some sort of combination of rice, beans, eggs (usually scrambled), steak, and arepas. So, not a whole lot of variety, but they seem to have all the staples covered. We were told the credit card minimum was $6 though it was inconsistently enforced. If you're looking for a more full-fledged Colombian restaurant experience nearby, I recommend Casa Vieja next door (https://www.yelp.com/biz/casa-vieja-restaurant-atlanta), La Casona (https://www.yelp.com/biz/la-casona-colombian-restaurant-atlanta), or Las Delicias de la Abuela (https://www.yelp.com/biz/las-delicias-de-la-abuela-doraville). Those are more sit-down type places whereas this is akin to dining in a no-frills convenience store. The market portion of Las Americas consists of shelves stocked with packaged food products, no produce. There are, however, a couple keep-warm display cases at the ordering counter stocked with ready-made snacks and pastries like arepas, empanadas, croquettas, sausages (I saw some that looked like blood sausages), and chicharrones (fried pork belly). I was all set to get the Mini Bandeja (plate of rice, beans, chicharron, fried egg, and arepa for $7.99) from the restaurant's all-day menu, but was told by the lady behind the counter that the kitchen was out of avocados, maduros (fried sweet plantains), and I think perhaps other stuff. What a bummer. How can a Colombian restaurant *and* market be out of those important ingredients at the beginning of the day on a Saturday, especially with several produce-selling markets in the immediate vicinity? So I instead got the Perico, Carne y Arepa (scrambled eggs with tomato and onion accompanied with "beef roast" and arepa for $6.50). There was a miscommunication at the register so I had to be rung up twice to get everything I wanted. It's important to note that Spanish is the primary language spoken here. One of my friends ordered the Calentado con Carne y Arepa (heated beans with beef roast, rice and arepa for $7.48), but instead got a plate of beans mixed with rice and scrambled eggs with tomato and onion. Yikes. The food was fine, but again, simple stuff. Cheap food. You can only expect so much out of a steak that comes with a meal totaling $6.50. Low quality, dry, and tough with little flavor (seemingly no seasoning). Same with the arepas. You should eat all of the different foods together instead of separately to maximize enjoyment. Relatively fresh jars of salsa were prepared for multiple tables. The salsa, which was a salty, mildly spicy, green and oniony type salsa, was much needed for both the steak and arepas. The scrambled eggs and beans were okay on their own. Some of my friends ordered off the special blackboard menu which included Caldo de Res (beef soup), Caldo de Pollo (chicken soup), tamales, and avena fria (Colombian oatmeal smoothie). The Caldo de Pollo, served with bone-in chicken, looked colorful and decent, but again, no avocado. Several of us tried the house coffee, including myself. Las Americas' coffee is mixed with milk and sold in "small" and "large" sizes with barely a price difference: $1.25 vs. $1.35. The coffee maker looked like an old, run-of-the-mill, office coffee machine. No one liked the coffee too much. One of my friends commented that it tasted burnt. A lot of milk was mixed in, "watering" whatever flavor there was down. I'd be willing to return to try the antojitos Colombianos (Colombian snacks, like those in the displays).

Came here on a Saturday for Brunch with a group of Elite Yelpers. @Daniel. B put together a great…read moregroup outing and he did call ahead and let them know we were a party of 25-30. Upon parking, the restaurant is a little place in the middle of a "strip mall" with other latin/hispanic restaurants and tienda (stores) for the community. The did update their store sign. There are two doors to go into but seems as though everyone uses the 1 by the iron gate. Upon entering it is a very small place with a wall for retail and 2 display cases with snacks and small plates like empanadas, papa renellas and other hispanic grab and goes. I will say this separately - little to no english is spoken, so be prepared to bring a translator or point at the menu for what you want. They do take credit cards and have a modern POS system, which is nice, but at times the $6.00 min isn't always applied to all orders. Items were good pricing and you will get out cheap. I had the Mini Badega and I will say it was good, minus the tough steak. The eggs were fried perfectly with runny yolks. The arepas were different from what I have had at other places, but it was ok accompanied by the steak. Arepas here were thin and large like a tortilla vs. the small thicker versions I have seen. Others in my party had gotten their orders mixed up and wasn't sure if they got the right plate, which all comes down to the language barrier and this restaurant not having the infrastructure to support a large group. I will try again if I am in the area, but may not be highly likely. I highly recommend the fried eggs and the chicharrones were really good and salty (not the healthiest though).

I have to say the food was pretty good. Everything came out well. But let me tell you, the service was absolutely horrible. Our server checked on us one time in the 2 hrs we sat there. After he took our food order he just disappeared. We waited over 25-30 min for our order when other tables that were sat after us were getting there food. The server never came to check to see if we needed water, soda or drinks. We tried to get his attention but he never turned his head in the direction of our table. The ambiance was very cool though. I loved how the restaurant was set up. I'm not sure if I'll be back again because of the poor service.
