The tacos were tasty overall, though I personally found the al pastor meat a little dry and not quite al pastor as I expected.

The service is good.

That's really nice outside. You know on a warm day it's good. But like I said, the food was really good this time. I really enjoyed it and it was worth the drive.

My sister got the nachos while I got the quesabirria tacos everything was delicious, good portions with and fresh flavors plus the food came out fast! They have a bar area and a family-friendly section and on Friday nights they have a mariachi band playing! This was a really fun place.

I can't tell you how many times I drove by this place without even knowing it was here. There is a…read moresmall cluster of restaurants that honestly don't have the strongest reviews. La Gloria is the exception. Reviews glow, but since you have seen my score, it's clear there is room for improvement. Once seated, we were served a Tostada. This was a single small fried tortilla with beans, cabbage and salsa. Probably cost less than $.25 in material, but sells for around $7. Now whenever, I talked to my God Mother, rest in peace, about a new Mexican restaurant, her first question was always the same, "How were the Frijoles?". These beans were creamy, well-seasoned and flavorful. The best refried beans I've tasted in some time. I still say the appetizer is overpriced, but I also see why they serve you one free for dining in. We started with chips and salsa. I still say, they should be free, but at $4, it's a little tough to complaint, but I will. The chips came on a dinner plate. A dinner plate of chips would be about the same size as a restaurant basket of chips, however, there was a large bowl big enough for soup with the smallest amount of salsa in it. So now, 25% of that surface space is gone. This bowl which most likely holds 16 oz has about 3 ounces of salsa, in it and 1/3 of the plate space is empty, So you have enough chips for one person and barely enough salsa for dipping. The salsa was also tart, no heat, no seasoning, we were very disappointed. Last, if you charge me for chips and salsa, it better be bottomless, but once the chips were gone, they removed the plate and bowl without offering to refill either. There were a couple items that looked good to me, but they both had squash. Sorry, I've never heard of squash in Mexican food, unless it's vegan, but maybe it's popular in the region this family is from. Rather than ask if it could be removed, I decided to go with the Carnes Asada. The food took a while to arrive, but they said everything is made from scratch and fresh, so I anticipated a meal worthy of El Presidente himself! Now, clearly this place was not without its flaws, but this was the best Carne Asada I've ever tasted. I was really skeptical, because it was thick cut and when Carna Asada is thick cut certain things tend to happen, it's not cooked evenly, the meat isn't seasoned well enough, so bites end up being bland. No, this was juicy, well-seasoned and cooked evenly, flawless. It also came with a generous scoop of guacamole, that didn't really impress. It was also served with Fried Cheese, no idea what that is, sounds like something served at the fair on stick. I got several tortillas that were hot and fresh and a small cup of whole beans that could have used some crumbled cheese on top. There was also a large portion of rice, but the flavor was a bit fishy. I don't know if they used a seafood broth, but for me it was inedible. There was also a smoky, spicy salsa served, but again, it was a tablespoon. Stop being so cheap with the salsa! This also would have been a far better salsa to go with chips than what was served. Glad I tasted everything, but not sure I would order it again. I didn't eat half of what was served do to taste which means I overpaid. If we do make it back, it would probably be for happy hour. That way we could sample a couple other items in a smaller portion for less. Would I recommend this place, sure, but not without the above cautions included. I like to clean my plate and feel like I got a deal, neither happened here due to some questionable choices in flavor or seasoning. The people could not have been nicer, but I can't say we left completely satisfied.

You can only choose between shredded chicken or shredded beef, with no other meat options. Based on the server's recommendation, I ordered their best selling green enchiladas. I was expecting a traditional green chile (verde) sauce with a bit of spice, but instead it was loaded with cream, which completely overpowered the flavor. The shredded meat was also very dry and lacked seasoning, making the dish even more disappointing. To make matters worse, the service was quite slow, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. Overall, this was the most disappointing Mexican food I've had in the area.

To-go orders get small samples of salsa but if you want to drown your food in it you'll want to dine in. Location is somewhat convenient a little hard to get in/out of during rush hour. Staff is terrible! No one girl at the front has ever been nice or welcoming. My experience is they are very impatient and seem annoyed when asked questions. I would have given them a 5 if the girl at the register didn't make my last experience so terrible. I'll never go back just to be treated disrespectfully no matter how good their food is.

This was my first time having real teriyaki chicken and it did not disappoint! I got the spicy crispy combo with pico and rice (chicken katsu and spicy teriyaki chicken). Lots of food for a good price! I would rate my meal a 10/10! I have nothing bad to say about it and I think it's perfect just the way it is.

In long I've been wanting to try this place for a couple years, and having errands run late while we were in the area gave us the perfect opportunity to get in. There's not too much parking, but there IS an accessible spot by the door, and it's okay, anyway...'cause there's not too awfully much seating. 4 tables inside, 4 more outside, next to the pleasant whoosh of traffic on 99. I'd sit anywhere for this food, though. We had carnitas sopes, which were light and airy but still sturdy enough not to droop when you picked them up. Stacked so high with toppings that I had to wipe my beard after pretty much every bite. Carnitas had great flavor, and all the veg were tasting and chewing like they're super fresh. The quesabirria tacos were excellent. A little crunch and a lot of chew to the tortilla, great flavors throughout, and solid consomme. The salsa bar is kinda basic but does the job--pickled carrots, radishes, cucumbers, limes, couple other things. Red, green, and hot options in the cooler below the veg. The staff here are super nice, and the one single-occupant restroom is clean enough, huge for sure, and fully accessible. Narrow doorway but easy to pass through.
