   Small Latin cafes with good tasting food may seem like a no brainer to find when you're on Bergenline Avenue. I'm here to tell you that is NOT true. Bergenline Avenue it's true is made up of tons of these spots but very few offer what Las Americas Cafe has: Cheap prices, variety of food options, large food portions, and delicious authentic food!

   Depending on which day you go depends on what you're food options are. For the most part I think they do a good job offering at least 6 different main meals for the day. Each mean ranges from $6-8 and comes with a choice of two sides: rice, beans, fried plantains, French fries, etc.

   It is a cafe setting so if you're coming to sit down and eat don't be alarmed that you're service isn't 5 star worthy. This establishment is made to come in for a quick bite to eat or take out some food which was the case for me.

   For $6.95 I had myself a delicious meal. Carne con Papas and my two sides were Arroz Moro y Tostones. I was expecting the meal to come in one aluminum container but was shocked to see one tray for the rice and an additional tray for the meat. Saying these were large portions for the price is an understatement!

   The rice and meat were so fresh. The rice you could tell was from a fresh pot made that day because it was still soft and tasty and the meat was tender and not chewy and filled with flavor! Delicioso!

   For those nights where I don't feel like cooking after a long day at work or don't want to wait 45 minutes for a delivery Las Americas is my go to spot and should be yours too!
