Gloria's Latin Cuisine

Gloria's is always very good. The Queso Fundido con Rajas is my go-to. It is decadent, flavorful, and filling. It comes with fresh tortillas, so long as you order flour. Gloria's for some reason gets store bought corn tortillas! Such a shame! Their black beans are vegan and come free with multiple salsas and bottomless chips--this alone keeps me coming back again and again! The plantains served with sour cream are so tasty. If you catch happy hour you can get a great deal on a margarita or mimosa. The interior is very upscale and full of life. Reflective surfaces, a water wall, colorful lights. It's great for a special occasion. The servers are always incredible! And they have dancing on certain nights!

You are in San Antonio , Texas and want to have the best pupusa Gloria's Latin cuisine is the Pam e to be. These pupusa were literally a meal. I had 3 pupusa cheese, porc and porc and cheese. The margarita was so refreshing and strong. The best drink. They have all day happy hour. Do not hesitate to ask question to your server . Their cocktail are good. I had a beer and a margarita.

Fantastic food, wonderful ambiance, and really great service from the staff- especially Zoëy!

Apparently this is what a medium cooked steak looks like now. This is also after I had zapped it in a microwave 45 seconds! I usually love Gloria's but rethink about ordering steak from here

Terrible service. A blatant lack of concern and responsiveness to customers when they express their frustration. Food took 35 minutes to come when a sense of urgency was shared on the onset. Had to go searching for the server when she wouldnt come by the table for 20 minutes straight. Food was okay. But appetite was tremendously reduced due to wait time and crude attitude of the staff. Will not be back. Very off put by the entire experience.

David was a great server. Prompt and attentive. Food was fresh and tasted great. The vegan refried beans were good too. Nice atmosphere and ambience (music was a bit off). Definitely returning on the regular!

Friday date night and stopped by here after watching a movie. The manager and our waiter were great. The chips, salsa, & bean dip was a good starter. Ordered drinks and the pupusa to share and the pork and cheese were the best ones. Will definitely come back, the ambiance is mixed dress up or down family with kids or no kids.

Stopped by Gloria's on Sunday to order a to go meal, got my usual blackened snapper. It's normally good but I feel like I was served fish they knew was bad. I should've realized something was off by the strong smell when we got in the car. I didn't think much of it but my husband immediately noticed the smell didn't seem right. I ate some of it anyway and got sick. So disappointed because this fish never should've been cooked or served to begin with. They lost a loyal customer!

Ambiance: clean, roomy, cool and comfortable- 5/5 Food: I ordered the Chile Relleno while my wife ordered the asada tacos. We both enjoyed our food though she felt it was too much so didn't finish her tacos. I liked my Relleno but have had better - 4/5 Service: polite waitress and checked up on us once during service. Wasn't outstanding but neither was it bad so 4/5. Overall impressions- nice atmosphere, good food and reasonably priced. Would definitely return. On a side note: my wife had been here before and she loved the Salmon salad.

We had 2 of their salmon lunch plates. It's one of favorites here. Today's lunch portions of salmon were a lot smaller than usual. Their chips and salsa is great. Their bean dip is delicious. The service was OK today. The waitress was on slow mode today. She got things to us as it pleased her. Otherwise, if you're at the Rim, the restaurant is a must try.

Met up with some friends for birthday celebrations. I ordered Salmon Costeño which was actually very good. It is nice to have other Latin cuisine options in addition to Mexican. My group of friends and I decided to stay for the Salsa Night.. in hopes we can get some dancing in. I have to say, music was a bit disappointing.

Was from out of town and familiar with Gloria's in San Antonio but not in Dallas. Went with family to Dallas location and immediately greeted friendly, seated at a table together without difficulty. Menu had large variety, and order was correct with seven of us, refills were generous, and server was very attentive to all tables and clearing empty dishes. Food was served hot, fresh ingredients! Location is handy in North Dallas area and the restaurant is clean and fresh appearing. Need to make this a stop on your travel or on dining plans.

It's National Margarita Day, and we headed to @gloriaslatincuisine for dinner tonight. Thursday is one of the all-day happy hour days. Dad had Lemonade, and Hubby and I had Mango Margaritas. Love their complimentary chips and salsa and bean dip. One of the best in town! Dad and I shared the Crispy Taco Dinner. Hubby had the Mariscada soup and Tropical Salad with shrimp. I had a bite of the lobster tail and the ginormous shrimp. Yum! Unfortunately, we didn't have room for the churros, which is fantastic. Kelly was a great server, very attentive. Highly recommend!

Salvadoran and Tex-mex cuisine . Fine dining , elegant upbeat music , classy decor and wam soft lighting. Great staff and delicious food! Highly recommended it.

We love this place, the dishes flavor its fresh and consistent! The service it's superb and you can have both ambiance's the intimate feeling inside and the casual patio outside. Importantly Management it's always around !

Great ambience. Delicious food. Churros were warm, fresh, and delicious! Our server was good, friendly and very attentive.

What a beautiful restaurant! It is just so aesthetically pleasing inside. I love it! The food was okay! The ceviche is great. I got the Gloria's Special and the pork papusa was a little hard to cut through and not much meat. Didn't seem fresh. At other places there is usually a sauce that goes with fried yucca but there was not here and the yucca portion was so small. The flavor didn't really stand out. Pretty average. The service was great and drinks are yummy! Makes a great date night or girls night

Ambiance is a hugeee wow factor. To the bubble tank and chihuly glass piece when you walk in. The bar and friendly demeanor of the bartenders will draw you in. Once seated you are surrounded in this modern Mexican decor. Chips, salsa, and beans will keep coming out! The menu is moderate in length and a huge plus is a whole vegetarian menu. Don't forget about the tasty alcoholic beverages and nonalcoholic. The food had good presentations. The flavors went well together but some items were a miss. Overall, a good place! Recommend!

Food was cold, green enchiladas were drowning in green salty sauce, and the refried beans were just terrible.. Margarita tasted like exposed frozen ice. Terrible, terrible, terrible! The servers were very sweet.

The food at Gloria's is always great no matter the location! I got the brisket tacos. The service felt a little rushed but we did get there right at opening, and they didn't have the pomegranate mimosa available. We sat outside which was really nice given the weather. I would come again just a few hours after opening in case I wanted pomegranate.

During the week, they close at 9. By 9:30, they are already want you out. The manager this Thursday night has no social skills. I recommend you go somewhere else for a relaxing night out. Stressful environment if this one manager is on call. I have been there before and it's pleasant.

Finally, another Mexican restaurant that doesn't taste like Tex-Mex. Took 5 people there today. The service was great. Very nice waitress. The food was delicious. The overall prices were ridiculously low. The margaritas were priced very decent. I got the Chimichunga burrito with rice and beans. Was $11.00. Try getting that at another restaurant. They had a choice between lunch or dinner prices.

Went here with my family and was definitely a great experience. I haven't been to Gloria's since 2021 (and I've never been to this location). Our server was great and the managers were active and making sure everything was great with us. Per usual the chips, salsa and bean dip were superb! THAT BEAN DIP is next level to me. It's addicting I can continuously eat it. I had the brisket quesadilla and DELICIOUS. I also had the house margarita and it was delicious as well. I'll go back. For sure!

Gloria's is such a great place any time of day, any day of the week! I have been here for lunch, dinner, and work events. Their chips and salsa are fresh and delicious, and the black bean dip in one of my favorite things about Gloria's! The service was great, our server knew the menu and gave us good recommendations. She knew how to explain the items and how they are served which was a big help in deciding because I wanted everything! We went for lunch and got the chicken taquitos and the green chicken enchiladas. The taquitos were hot and fresh, very crispy, and I love the sauce they serve them with. My husband got the enchiladas and they were excellent! The only complaint was that the chicken was a bit overcooked but not enough to take a star away. If you dine inside it can be a more on the dim side so if you need more light when you eat request sitting near a window or outdoors. They have a full bar with bar seating are great for special events. The lunch portions were perfect, had I gotten an appetizer I would've probably been way too full. OH, and their margaritas are amazing!

After our original plans fell through, my work team's holiday dinner was moved to Gloria's. I had never been here before, so I was looking forward to checking it out. Since we were a large group, we had special seating towards the back of the restaurant adjacent to the bar area. The restaurant is still quite spacious, and has patio seating too. Our waiter came by for our drink order first. I choose their draft IPA, Voodoo Ranger, but they also had Modelo, Dos Equis, and Shiner. We were provided chips and salsa, and bean dip while we looked over the menu. I opted for the Churasco Tipico. After a short wait, our food was brought out. The sirloin was cooked perfectly. The beans were great, and the cilantro was a nice touch. The rice was okay. I liked the addition of the yuca and plantains. I thoroughly enjoyed everything on this plate. It was especially nice since the meal was on the company's dime. Another pleasant surprise was that the pints I ordered were only $5. This is less than most restaurants these days. I enjoyed our visit, and would definitely come back again.

Give it a try! Honestly eating here was not planned, I came here after shopping on a Saturday and they were able to sit us asap. It was around 1pm and they were serving brunch... $3.50 mimosas (pomegranate, orange juice, and mango) nombreee I was super happy plus the food was actually delicious! The portions are no joke and the pricing is phenomenal. The service was fast and courteous. Someone from management (I assume) dropped by our table to check in and let us know about the nightlife ambiance at Gloria's: Latin music, live music, and dancing.

Very clean, organized and calm ambiance. They were 3 hostess welcoming my wife and I when we walk in. Immediately we were noticing how the decorative walls and colors around the entire restaurant. Tables separated at a great distance for more privacy. Server was very attentive, We ordered the mix fajita for two. At the beginning they mistakenly gave us just shrimp, but then they corrected the order and everything tasted delicious. Service is excellent. This is a really 10 stars restaurant.

There are several options in the area but this one stood out. It seems this is a TX chain as they have locations around the state. The service seemed to me, friendly and thorough, and they also have time to check the menu, ask questions, etc. Gosh they have such a great menu it took us a while to decide what to order.. I opted for the Seafood Soup (Mariscos), and my +1 had the Churrasco with rice and beans and chimichurri. Both dishes were received rather promptly and hot. Super flavorful all around! We sat outside and thankfully the patio was covered, it made for a comfortable set up outside in the beautiful weather! Great menu, great service and reasonable prices. Check them out!!

Food was amazing. If you're vegan be careful the black beans have chicken stock in it. Our waiter hated his job, and it showed.. but other than that the food was amazing and I loved it. 1 frozen margarita messed me up

If you like good food then you already know about this place. Came here after a movie at Santikos and my boyfriend loved the food so much, he can't wait to come back. It was his first time at Gloria's and now he's a sucker for the black bean dip. I was the same way my first time here, so I can't even blame him lol. The mojitos and swirl margaritas are some of my favorite things about Gloria's. After way too many chips and salsa, we both ordered the Enchilada Combo. The chicken was tender and the sauces on top were all pretty good. I've been here so many times that I've tried a lot of things on the menu, yet every time I come, it takes a minute for me to decide. Everything is just so good! I've never been disappointed at Gloria's and this location is no different. Lots of parking nearby, but depending on how busy it is, might take a while to find. I suggest parking at Santikos and walking over.

Food was good and the place has such a nice vibe. I went there on a sister date, I would definitely recommend for a date date.

Service is always great and the have the best salmon plate I've ever had! It's not on the menu, but ask for the "Serrano Salmon" it's delicious and not spicy at all.

Decided to try something new. Fairly new restaurant at the Rim. Not to be confused with the local La Gloria's. Upon arrival, greeted and seated promptly. Arrived approximately 630 on a Saturday. Way too early for the live entertainment. The casual atmosphere with Latin music playing certainly gets you in the mood. Waitress was helpful, patient, bilingual & attentive. We started off with drinks, the drinks here are good. Drinks here are good, along with the tostadas and cheese dip. The chips are served with chili & bean dip which was pretty good. Definitely the spot for happy hour drinks. Decided on the chicken mole enchiladas. Presentation was amazing, beautiful facade to disappointment. Chicken was dry & the sauce tasted as though the cinnamon bottle fell in. Way too much cinnamon in the mole. Rice, nice and fluffy, yet bland. The black beans were not bad. Would return for appetizers & drinks only.

Nice ambiance with the lighting and fire place. Could actually be a nice date night spot. The employees were friendly and courteous. There is an outdoor dining area that's covered for the cooler evenings and open for warming temperatures. As my friend described, a upscale Mexican restaurant. I'll be back for sure. The food was pretty tasty overall. Check it out!

I would come here just for the mint limeade! The food is excellent but the fresh mint limeade is top level!

This is hands down one of my go to places! Last year we moved to Virginia and had our going away dinner here and then we just came back home for a visit we had our get together dinner here again. This place is beautiful all around, the music and aesthetic are perfect. Never a let down here from the complimentary bean dip, salsa, and chips to the drinks! We had a party of 8 and had a 10 minute wait for the table on a Tuesday, not bad at all. We were serviced right away with drinks and all. Everyone LOVED there food and the drinks untouchable with their all day Happy Hour. My favorite is the skirt steak quesadilla with a margarita, trust me you need to give them a try.

Short answer: Gloria's Latin Cuisine is amazing. I came here on a Thursday around mid-afternoon. Were we behind a large party that was being sat down. The hostess was nice enough to mention that we would be next to the large party and that she will move us further so we wouldn't be bothered. That was very kind and considerate of her. We were sat down and about 5 minutes later, our waitress/server greeted us. My mother-in-law does not speak any English, so the server did not skip a beat and jumped right in and spoke Spanish to my mother-in-law, explaining the various dishes and combinations. Amazing service! I order the carne asada plate with rice, plantains and yuca and a side of chimichurri sauce. I'm not sure how other Latin cuisines grill their meat, but Gloria's carne asada was something else! You could definitely tell there was some smoke flavor to it. Whether it's artificial or not, it was delicious! My mother-in-law got the cheese pupusas with a side of curtido (Salvadorean Slaw) and the they soft and tender with melted cheese oozing out. Just the way they should be! Overall, I would absolutely come back here! My only reason for docking a star is the portion to price ratio. My plate of carne asada with maybe 5-7oz strip was $19!

We absolutely love Gloria's!!! My husband who is Salvadoran was looking for a place that made pupusas. He's tried other places in San Antonio and he always says Gloria's is the BEST!!! The cheese one is so good and perfectly cooked. We've had other things on the menu but keep coming back just for the pupusas. We've only eaten inside the restaurant once which is nice and clean and the service is great but we normally just do take out since it's always busy here. Highly recommend ordering the cheese pupusas or the chicharrón ones.

Came here for a Bachelorette dinner. Very nice interior. This place turns into a club/latin dance area after dinner hours. Dinner Entree was good. I got the carne asada plate. Steak was cooked to perfection. The rice was okay. I loved the platano and yuca fries. So delicious. I also ordered the ceviche trio, i loved two of the three, felt like one of them was a bit too fishy and was missing some flavor the plantain chips were a bit stale for me and a bit hard to chew, I'd prefer the tortilla chips for my ceviche next time. I ordered two strawberry mojitos because they were that good. Service was excellent, our waiter was attentive, and definitely on it with refilling our drinks. He kept em coming! I'd recommend this place to anyone for good food and a fun night out right after. The live music here was awesome! Sound system was great! I'm giving 5 stars because we all had a great time from start to finish. Love the convenience of having a nice dinner and coming right back for dancing!

Very friendly service. It was a bit loud to have a conversation. Food was good and came out quickly. Pleasant atmosphere and very clean.

With Tex-Mex spots on every corner in San Antonio, Gloria's Latin Cuisine is like a refreshing breeze of authentic Latin flavor spicing things up with a taste of something truly special! Starting with bartenders last night, 12/20/24, who have perfected probably every cocktail on the menu but especially my favorite, Mexican Martini dressed with tajin and the best Mexican Candy shot I've ever had. They elevate chips and salsa to a new level of deliciousness, pairing the most vibrant, flavor-packed salsas with fried plantains and crispy fried yuca, yum!! As an entree, I ordered the Carne Asada, and was the BEST I've ever had, hands down! No kidding. Next time I'm stopping in for tapas since there are so many I want to try under Para Empezar. I can't leave without mentioning the modern vibe and a great spot for friends, Girls Night, or a date.

Long term customer. Service has went down hill, they use to have a happy hour on Sunday and now have taken it away to make more $$! Recently, we went in for happy hour bottle of wine on Sunday, our server was fighting us that there was no happy hour on Sundays anymore. After telling her that there is a sign outside staying on Sunday wine bottles were half price, she gave us attitude and said the manager was okay with giving it to us at half price. How is that possible if you advertise happy hour for bottle of wine on outside placard? Bait and switch???? Our bar server never came back to check on us after we challenged her. I've notice they lost a lot of customers..

Excellent great service, nice staff, excellent food and drinks, friendly and safe ambiance, great to celebrate birthdays, weddings and anniversaries

Ambiance: 5 Service: 5 Food: 5 Drinks: 5 So much better than the dated and uninspired Tex-mex of San Antonio. Try their margaritas with a shot of tequila on top and order the a la Mexicana dish. Enjoy!

Very stylish Mexican establishment at the Rim. The interior is very modern and sleek. There is a happy hour as well. Both times I've been here I've had the sopa de pollo and it's been excellent. The soup has a hearty broth, lot's of veggies, rice and a good helping of perfectly prepared shredded chicken breast. The chicken fajitas were well done as well.

I still give Gloria's 5 stars. We come here often because the food and service are consistently good. My kids cannot get enough of the black bean dip. It is delicious! My favorite is the Salmon Costeno. The sautéed vegetables are always great. Other entrees we like are the nachos, Carne Asada, and anything with a pupusa or tamale. I haven't had a bad dish here. The restaurant feels upscale, but the prices are reasonable. The quality of the food is high.

The managers here are terrible. I was missing a food item one time and I went to tell the manager and instead of replacing the item she told me she was going to check the security cameras. I ordered again yesterday after a long time hoping for better service. I ordered takeout and when I was about to walk out the door I noticed I was missing chips and salsa. I told the host and she told me to go find someone who could help me. Then I came home to open up my 18 dollar burrito and was met with minimal chicken and rice. I told the manager and instead of offering solutions and apologizing for his employee he decided to argue with me for ten minutes over the phone. Do not recommend this location!

Went twice. Once food and drinks were ok, staff a bit too busy to replenish drinks. The second time, I got food poisoning... Never going back.

Sorry Gloria's, had to give this location a 3 for stale chips, forgetting plantains on one of the orders and the super spicy salsa that I normally have in Austin was off. However, the tamales and black bean dip rescued the appetizer round and my steak was done medium rare as requested! A couple of people had the sour cream enchiladas and was pleased.
