On the Grid : Gloria's Caribbean Cuisine

"Crown Heights is filled with wonderful Caribbean cuisine, and Gloria's is definitely one of the cornerstones. Appearing on shows such as "No Reservations," it's no secret that the roti, doubles, curry, and callaloo are all incredibly unique and delicious. The space is kind of small inside, so sometimes the best move is to grab it to go and take it to a bench on Eastern Parkway on a nice Summer evening. Don't forget to wash it down with some fresh grapefruit juice." - Kyle & Annie Turman

The Best Restaurants in Crown Heights - Eater NY

"Gloria’s permanently closed following a tragic, decades-long legal battle last year, but owner Gloria Wilson’s Trinidadian fare remains available from this second location in southern Crown Heights. There’s no menu listed, so come prepared with your order or follow the recommendation of whoever’s working the counter, as one should. Nourishing, tamarind-packed doubles are a reliable bet, or opt for the gargantuan oxtail dinner (around $15 for a large), which comes with plantains, rice and peas, and a choice of two sides." - Luke Fortney, Emma Orlow, Robert Sietsema

The Best Caribbean Food In Crown Heights & Bed-Stuy - New York - The Infatuation

"Just north of Empire Blvd. sits a third-generation roti shop named after the family’s matriarch, Gloria Wilson. Gloria’s recently suffered tremendous generational loss documented by Gothamist. During its heyday, Gloria’s had three locations, and is currently operated by Gloria’s grandson, Bryan. Another institution best known for Trini-style roti and pholourie (fluffy fried balls made with split peas served with tamarind sauce), Gloria’s is a must-visit. My order here is usually the goat buss-up (paratha), but as an alternative, I’d also recommend the boneless chicken roti. The best way to eat this is in its traditional Indo-Caribbean style: with your hands and with plenty of pepper. Pair it with tamarind for a sweet and spicy flavor along with an Apple J, and boom, you’ll feel like you are at a Carnival fete.

The Best Caribbean Food In Brooklyn’s Little Caribbean - New York - The Infatuation

"Located on Nostrand just north of Empire, Gloria’s is another third-generation, family-operated business named after the family’s matriarch Gloria Wilson. My go-to is the curry goat buss up shut (paratha roti) with pumpkin, potato, and plenty of pepper. I’d recommend pairing this with a mauby (a bittersweet Caribbean beverage made from bark & anise) or a red Solo (kola champagne). Another favorite is oxtail with rice & peas and plantain." - Shelley Worrell 31
