I was on my way home and wanted to pick up a pastry or snack to take home with me. I decided on a guava and cheese empanada as well as some banana bread. It can be hard to find good gluten free options but I thought both were very tasty! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is a small place but so far every time I've been there has only been one or two other people inside and I was helped very quickly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

was so excited about an all gf kitchen but the treats definitely fell flat (cookie was so hard) but my fav food in the world is mozerella sticks so i was SO excited to order - those did not disappoint! so id go for food instead of bakery items. staff was very kind & they have lots of to-go meals for purchase as well. read more

This place was a fantastic find. Two people in our group are celiac one of which is very symptomatic. Everyone enjoyed their food. Burger, Sandwich, Empanadas, and of course dessert. Wish we lived closer, but they do ship their frozen items read more

This used to be my go-to spot every time we visited Miami (about 5-6 times a year). I always made sure to order extra so I could take food home with me. Sadly, I've had to stop coming. The prices have skyrocketed for what you get, and the quality of the food has really gone downhill. It's always great to find an all-gluten-free spot, and I love supporting small businesses, but I've received burnt food too many times to return. It's just not worth it anymore. read more

As someone who is newly gluten free, I appreciated this spot SO much. This review is solely based on carry-out. First, the BEST tiramisu I've ever tasted in my life - so used to my favorite desserts taking a hit when made gluten free, but this far exceeded my expectations. The Maui Sammy was a HIT. I love a good bacon, egg and cheese and this one was just made right. They use the perfect bread for their sandwiches. I'm sure I speak for many when I say I'm so tired of gf sandwiches being half the size of regular sandwiches. Last, the tomato, mozz, basil sandwich with prosciutto was also great - a little on the salty side, but delicious nonetheless. A fully gf bakery is a dream come true, so I'm excited to return to Miami for this gem!!! read more

Everything in the place is gluten free. We had lunch and everything was really good. Did not try bakery items.

Not so much a dine in place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is super cramped and not much interesting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, they're an exclusive gluten free facility and it's all delicious. They also offer shipping and I think we'll be doing more of that option. Service truly was good too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Minus the one star for the lack of ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Worst bakery experience ever! Was referred to this bakery and to say it was a horrible experience is an understatement. We ordered multiple sweets to try them. The location is a small quaint locating that has a couple display cases. The person working was kind, but later in the call I made to the location lacked care. The orange pound cake was so hard. It was super dry and tasted old. No way this was fresh. The chocolate chip cookie was like sand. It crumbled when breaking a piece off. This was as if the cookie has been sitting in the open air for a long time and dried out. The carrot cupcake was so dry I could not eat it all. It tasted as if it was cooked, frozen, and then put out to eat with frosting. It lacked carrot consistency and was not good at all. The orange truffle was more like a bittersweet blob of cocoa powered with orange flavoring. No consistency to The chocolate. I called into the location after getting home and trying these desserts. The person said they were all freshly made this morning. There is no possible way and I told him that. I went into detail with all the items we purchased. There was a lack of care and he just continued to say it was all fresh. I told him there was no way! There was not mention of stopping back in to make it right, refund, or anything else. I told him I would be posting my honest review and he said okay, thank you. Did not care at all. So here it is. He said that Dora was the Grandmother from the location but no longer there. I read some reviews and if appears there was a change in ownership. I highly suggest if your looking for a fix to a sweet tooth or a craving, stay clear alway from this place. High priced for old stale food is exactly what you will get. Horrible, horrible, horrible. Find yourself a different location to visit or you too will be disappointed! All those that have referred this place have been advised and said they will no longer refer as well. read more

One of my favorite things to discover during a trip is dietary-friendly spots, which took me to Dora's gluten free eatery for take out. I had to sample a few items. Spinach croqueta was tasty and hard to believe it was vegan. Burger was huge, took 10-15 min to make, and definitely enough for 2! The gluten-free bun and bacon were the highlights; the meat tasted fresh but lacked flavor. Topped the meal off with an alfajor (sugar cookies stuffed with dulce de leche - cookies were okay but the filling was dynamite). Service was so/so; ambiance was quaint (though there was a slight odor). Really appreciated that the staff wore a mask! All in all, I'm glad Dora's exists and they fill an import at gap in the area. The high price point is consistent with the ingredients, but I needed more flavor in the burger and more dairy-free options (or maybe just more dulce de leche?!). read more

When you're celiac, finding dedicated GF places are a needle in a haystack... thankful for places like this. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's cozy, so not for large groups but great for picking up sweet treats and sandwiches when in Little Havana or surrounding areas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be back! read more

For anyone with dietary restrictions, this place is a true gem, especially for my gluten-free friends. At Dora, you never have to second guess your order because all their dough products are completely gluten-free and made with fresh, natural ingredients. The service is quick, and every dish is made to order. While the wait can be a bit longer, it is absolutely worth it. And the portions were just right. Prices are on the higher side, but that is expected for a dedicated gluten free shop. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beyond the food, there is plenty of seating and a charming bakery where you can pick up some treats to take home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Enjoy a delicious meal, completely guilt free! read more

Fiancé and I ate here everything is 100% gluten free and the lady at the counter was super nice. Loved the sandwich with the croquetas!

So many gluten free options, got the brownie and it was delicious! Will definitely be back to try their other options

It's a treat to have gluten-free goodies down the street and a little bit dangerous. Every part of the menu is solid. The cupcakes are small and tasty. Nothing is too sweet where you miss out on taste. It's true bakery fare. The chicken fingers hamburgers do not disappoint. I hadn't tried the pizza yet. The service is excellent. I can order on DoorDash and they bring it to the parking lot without question. I only wish they serve salads so I would feel better about eating the cake pop. read more

Dora's is a lil shop almost hidden amongst the business in its row, but once you spot its neon open sign and Dora's logo on the glass, you follow the row to enter the alley that leads to rear parking(so old-Miami with that layout .) Once you walk to the shop, and open the door, the great smells of a bakery hit your nose. I'm newly GF(gluten-free) and long-time dairy free and I was elated with what I found here. I got a tres leches cake that was absolutely , positively THE BEST! I have not had any tres leches cake(to which this Miami-girl LOVED growing up and use to have all the time as a kid) for over a decade as I developed a dairy allergy many years ago. This took me back to my childhood and made my heart and taste buds really smile. I also got a passion fruit tart to which really missed the mark. The passion fruit taste artificial and it was overall a "clawing-type" over sweetness. I will definitely be back for another tres leches cake and I want to try the tiramisu as well; I saw a tiramisu cake that was dairy free but the bakery is quite pricey so I gave myself a one cake at a time maximum. The cashier and guy in the back were really sweet and helpful. These kinda of places make GF more tolerable, however much it takes a chunk out of your wallet. read more

The very best gluten-free tiramisu I have tasted in a very long time. I highly recommend it!

Super gluten free friendly. The employee said they aren't even allowed to bring in non gluten free lunches to prevent cross contamination. Everything is 100% gluten free, even the beer. We ordered the chicken nuggets and the Dora burger. The nuggets were crispy and hand breaded and absolutely delicious. My only complaint was that they didn't have BBQ sauce but the Buffalo sauce was tasty. The burger bun was probably one of the best we've had and was t crumbly like most. The burger was very tasty. The chef also let us try all the flavors of the croquetas, which were also tasty. Our fave was the spinach, with the tasty plantain coating. Service was amazing as well. And the desserts looked divine but we were stuffed. Definitely check this place out. Super gluten free friendly.

I have beenn wanting to get croquetas from this place since last year. After being diagnosed with a stomach issue, I had to look for some gluten free options and found Doras. After a long transitional period in my life and a dear friend bringing me some croquetas, I finally got a taste !!! They are delicious ! Everything the hype waS about for this place, it lives up to it. My only issue with the croquetas from this place in particular is that they are extremely burnt. I am not used to a dark burnt taste in my croquetas but if you take off the outside layer, doent taste like burnt. My friend also got the guava rolls and he lOved it. No pics of the croquetas as my kiddo loved it but I attached a photo of the box that's gotta count for Something! read more

We tried 5 pastries and they were all SUPER sweet. Like ridiculously sweet. The worst offender was the chocolate covered Oreo which had an incredibly thick layer of chocolate that drowned out the Oreo and just felt like a sugar bomb in your mouth. The "best" pastry we had was the orange loaf. Although it has way too much icing that overpowers the whole thing and is super sweet, once you remove that, you have a decent bread. Other things we tried: - cookie with oreo pieces: Underbaked and too sweet - brownie: not a real brownie, more like a chewy piece of fudge. Too sweet - cupcake with cookie pieces: an insane amount of SUPER sweet frosting. Can't taste anything except sugar. Really disappointed not gonna lie. It's so hard to find good gluten free pastries and I was excited for this place. read more

My friend and I wandered into Doras looking for something warm and savory. We each ordered a latte, quiche, and a dessert to split. Coffee: It was Nespresso. I shouldn't have to say more but I will. First, this is an establishment how is there no real coffee maker. Dora's is also a cafe! What cafe doesn't have real coffee!? And in MIAMI!!??!! Baffled. I drank my Nespresso latte but I didn't love it. Quiches: they were very tasty. We had the caramelized onion and the date/chorizo. My only complaint is the size, they are small. I'd rather a full slice than a shallow mini. Croqueta: we asked for ham and received spinach. My friend enjoyed it, I didn't--the spinach didn't taste seasoned and gave me previously frozen vibes. I would get the large quiche of I was hosting, otherwise I won't be back. The staff was amazing and kind! read more

The best service ever! Ive never felt so happy about the way I was treated. Food is ultra fresh. I'm not gluton free but was in the area so I stopped in. I loved the taste and texture of the breads. They use a blend of gluten free flours. Everything is made from scratch. The sandwich was very filling.the bread reminded me of an old fashioned KFC biscuit. I did enjoy it. I would reorder. Croquette was tasty and crooked crispy. Just dont go into this expected anything like a Cuban croquette.this is thinner, smaller, crisper and was a prosciutto although you can get a vegetarian one. I would skip the reorder. The cinnamon roll comes without nuts. Although the taste doesnt suffer for the loss of nuts I do miss the occasional crunch. Same crumbly texture as the sandwich bread but more dense. Extremely sweet. I'd skip the reorder. . The juice was great. Nice full kick from the ginger. I thought it was just natural juice and cbd but found it had honey in it. Won't reorder just because I'm avoiding sugars. Take with a grain of salt because I'm a coffee snob but the coffee seemed over brewed. It was very bitter. I wouldn't reorder but I am fussy with my coffee. I would like to revisit this place. It's a great place to go with friends. It's a great to go for a quick bite lite lunch or dinner. Its very cozy and welcoming in a simple way. Customer service is off the charts excellent. read more

I was really excited to get the $71 cake I ordered for my Moms 60th birthday 4 weeks in advance. I've been buying gluten free birthday cakes for her for years but we recently moved to Miami so I had to find a new GF bakery. Unfortunately the cakes texture and taste was as if it was uncooked. Very wet and grainy and it was red velvet but the color was more brown than red and the flavor of it was just not red velvet and not very good. The frosting was about the only thing that i could eat. No one else at the table could eat more than a bite or two. This cake could not be called a cake at all if I'm Being honest...it didn't even taste like It was baked. If they were going for a flourless style cake it was more in this category...but still very very bad and mushy and the texture of raw cake batter. Like I said, of the 8 people eating the cake, no one took more than 1-2 bites each. The rest of the entire thing went in the garbage. I Can't speak for their other products but please don't waste 71$ on their cakes. read more

It's great Dora's is still open but I think delivery may not be ideal. The last time I ordered we had a bad experience but I figured it was growing pains with a new chicken sandwich. Today we ordered pizza and the prociutto and arugula sandwich. It was playing ham and nothing else. The pizza was also not what I remember. I think in person things may be different. Good luck. read more

The best bakery in Miami! They just came out with the first 100% gluten free burger in all of Miami and all I can say is.. WOW. So tasty and filling. Their croquetas are probably my favorite thing on the menu... made with jamón serrano, parsley, onions, and their homemade breadcrumbs! Their alfabrownies are to DIE FOR; dulce de leche in the middle of two fudge brownies coated with with chocolate ganache. Another one of my favorites are their sugar cookies and ham and cheese quiche! Everyone needs to give this place a try! read more

Fabulous food. We very much enjoyed our two meals here. Gluten free certified. Lovely for a change.

I went to this restaurant with very high expectations based on the rest of the reviews I saw on here. I was extremely disappointed- we ordered a burger, a sandwich, a ham croquette, a spinach croquette, a guava empanada, an aflabrownie, and an individual frozen key lime pie since they didn't have any fresh ones available. Not only was everything extremely overpriced, the flavors were not good. Honestly below average. The bread is good but the actual dishes are not. For example, the burger didn't taste well. The meat was undercooked and the sauce was flavorless. Cheese was mid. The croquettes are not worth ordering since they were pretty flavorless and with almost no ham at all, although they had a nice crunch. The empanada was probably the best thing we got, but could use better cheese. The brownie alfajor had a huge white chocolate layer that made it hard to eat and waaaay too sweet. The sandwich was ok but too small for the price and not better than anything you can make yourself at home. The key like pie was also just ok after thawing. Overall, I left feeling sad and disappointed. Definitely not worth the money. Also, not a great place to eat at, it's more to go. Space is very limited, and the food takes long to be served. I give it two stars bc they have variety in the menu but again, nothing is great so it doesn't mean much :/ read more

Very disappointed with the chicken sandwich. The smallest pieces of rubbery chicken with 1 crap onion ring and a little sauce. To be fair the empanada was good but still terrible sandwich. read more
