Restaurante La gloria de Gloria

Very tight limited space BUT wow some of the best ribs, chicharron, and morcilla in town! Really delicious food for a decent price. The portions are giant so you can definitely share a bandeja paisa between at least 2-3 people. Will definitely be back here soon!

What a wonderful neighborhood institution. This is. Welcoming authentic Colombian food. Everyone Raves about the chicken and I can see why. The beans were great. Also. I stuck to the basics but everything else looked great as well.

The bandeja paisa (with 1kg of chicharrón!) is for 2 people and it comes with a small dish of morcilla with arepa, plus a beans and meat soup. The whole pack is 81k COP. I'm not sure if there are any other options since there is no menu or anything, and everyone just seems to order the bandeja paisa. I think it's quite expensive since you can find better bandejas for much lower prices (a bandeja that is basically not just chicharrón), but the quality of the chicharrón was really good anyway. All in all the place is recommendable since it seems to be quite popular even among locals, but I think it may be overhyped. We managed to sit down immediately but we were lucky, the queue afterwards was very long. The staff is amazing, the manager of the place is one of the most lovely people ever! Everyone is efficient at their job and they are super friendly too.

It's a shame that I chose to believe what Google reviews showed. This was the most disappointing colombian Bandeja Paisa we've had in 14 days being here. Why? The meal was about 50 percent chicharron, Very little meat, a tiny amount of salad, lackluster frijoles. The worst part? It was DOUBLE the price of any other bandeja paisa I had tried in envigado, Sabaneta, Rionegro, or llano grande. They try to distract you with aguardiente shots from the moment you get there, but that was just a weak ploy. My wife and I will never be back here when there are MUCH better options near by. El Portal de Miry is leaps and bounds better.

They were amazing. Food was delicious. Staff even better. I didnt have cash, they let me go to the ATM and come back, were chill about it. They also gave me a lot of free shots.

🇺🇸the portions are amazing just make sure you bring cash. The costumer service is incredible the best I have experienced in Medellin. They were very attentive and offered me shots. The food arrived fast considering the reviews. I recommend 12pm on a weekday

Great option for Paisa typical food. Long line to wait a table, chicharrón was long and big, with some fat but it’s ok. Frijoles has garra and the morcilla was delicious and fresh. The bandeja paisa comes with French fries and salad

If you are a tourist you will not regret stopping by here! The restaurant is small but they accommodated 20 of us and the service was phenomenal. Seriously I only had one meal here and I can not wait to make the trip back. The pork belly with the avocado and salad is so good it’s insane. Please drop by to give these people my love!!
