Food is always so yummy. Service is very great. Managers are polite. Atmosphere is calm and nice.

Unfortunately, our experience at Gloria's was very disappointing. When we arrived, we stood at the host stand and were not acknowledged by the staff, despite there being employees nearby. We waited to be greeted and seated, but no one came over to assist us. What made the experience even more frustrating was seeing open tables available while we were still left waiting without any explanation or acknowledgment. We ultimately felt ignored and unwelcome. We were looking forward to enjoying the Latin food at Gloria's, but the lack of basic customer service completely overshadowed the experience. Hopefully management can address this with the staff, because guests should at least be acknowledged and given an explanation if there is a wait or seating issue. read more

Visiting from out of town and was taken here and my dish was So Delicious Delightful ~ Grilled Shrimp with Spanish Rice and Sautéed Vegetables even sautéed mango with garlic butter sauce Divine their Chips and Salsa came with 3 different sauces a spicy red sauce a green avocado sauce and bean sauce.

We really like Glorias. They have consistently excellent service. The food comes out hot and it is tasty Tex-Mex and genuine Latin cuisine. The chips are good and the bean dip and salsa are excellent. Today we split chicken and skirt steak fajitas. They were excellent! The biggest problem with steak fajitas is when the meat is tough or chewy, making it difficult to eat without pulling the meat out of the tortilla. The meat today was delicious and tender. Service was fantastic. Our server, Oscar was fast and attentive enough to make sure we were enjoying the meal, not too intrusive. The atmosphere feels more authentic than many larger chains. There are a lot of tables and it is not quiet, but not really noisy either. It was easy to carry on a quiet conversation. Would highly recommend. I have no idea why their Yelp rating isn't higher. read more

My husband and I made a 25‑minute drive to dine here, arriving around 6:30 p.m. in perfect patio weather -- 83 degrees. We requested patio seating, only to be told it was closed, despite seeing another couple already seated and being served outside. No explanation was offered, which was disappointing and confusing.This isn't the first time we've visited and noticed a pattern: long waits for us, while guests who appear to share the same background as the hostess are seated immediately. It's hard to overlook when it happens repeatedly.We're generous tippers and consistent customers, but this visit made it clear that it's time for us to move on. We'll be dining in Las Colinas from now on. read more

Well 1st of all, I am in Dallas visiting my best friend ( my youngest Bruda) and his family. After a nice long walk and a swim in their Pool, we wanted to grab a bite to eat. My Sister- in Love (Lorri) picked the place...she chose Gloria's restaurant. It was such an Amazing day that we decided to sit outside and enjoy the ambiance, scenery , and atmosphere. The food was definitely on Point; I ordered a shredded chicken Chimichanga, refried beans, Spanish rice and of course some French fries. Everything was Delicious, the service was superb and the Vibe was Everything. Overall experience...5 stars for Sure. Our sever was Mila; she was excellent. I wanted to take some pictures of the outside but my phone got Too Hot. read more

The food was great. The service was excellent. I always find reasons to go there. I've been there three times and never had a bad experience. The bar side is loud but it's just people having a great time and just being so friendly with everyone. The place is always clean and just a delight. read more

Gloria's Latin Cuisine - Gloria's special. Yum - Tex-Mex Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I can't believe I've been sleeping on this place. I've been for a casual lunch, but never for dinner. Completely different vibes. Arrived on a Friday night and the restaurant was busy, but we didn't have to wait long for a table. For starters we were given chips and multiple dip options which were all great. I also order fajita nachos for the table. Highly recommend! The best fajita nachos I've had in a while. They put a lot of meat and plenty of cheese to where every time you take a bite of your nacho you get string cheese pulls. Yum! I also got the Mexican Martini which is a margarita and martini meshed together. Interesting combination and not too sweet which is how I prefer my cocktails. Not sure if I would order it again, but it was a nice drink to sip on. For my entree I chose the red snapper tacos with corn tortillas. It was fresh and lighter option! I will say I would have liked it to be seasoned a bit more, but overall it was good. Definitely would suggest more seasonings though. Good food and a great spot for date night or catch up with friends. Casual or more dressy looks work here. Good patio also! read more

Gloria's is GREAT for a cheap(er) date night! My boyfriend and I went this past weekend and had a wonderful time! Great value for the price and portions. Our server brought out new chips and salsa before we were even out! Great hospitality! read more

Good and flavorful food. It is a chain but seems quality. The dining space is loud and the tables are all packed in a large rectangular room. It is unique to have both beans and salsa with chips. Service was not great. read more

I don't preference mexican food much, and this is my first time going to this establishment. From start to finish, walking in and leaving out, everything was pretty good. The service was quick and respectful.The food came out fast, and the food was pretty good. I had the combination plate that had the fajitas, the chimichangas and a taco with rice. What captured my attention was that the chimichanga was so flavorful and juicy that I never experienced that before. I was able to cut the chimichanga with my fork.I didn't have to pick it up.It was just that tender and it was packed with a lot of flavor. The fajitas were great. The taco was great and I had a really great time with a wonderful person. The ambiance is pretty cool. And this was during lunchtime, so I would say enjoy lunch, but probably have a better time in the evening. This will be my go to when I want some really good mexican food. Recommend. read more

Food was just "ok". Nothing to brag about. Drinks was great though. Service was good, atmosphere was cool

Wanted to try something new and landed on this place. The ambiance was very welcoming and cozy. When the food came I was wondering if the nachos would be good based off appearance but they were perfectly stacked. My entree was carne asada rice and beans. The meat and rice was cooked very well although the beans were a little loose. I was also disappointed because I ordered a dirty Shirley temple and she said no we don't do that and brought me a regular one. No alternate option was offered she just brought me the soda. A dirty Shirley is literally a normal Shirley temple with a shot of clear. How can you not do that? All in all I was pleased with everything else. read more

We went here for Taco Tuesday, during lunch so there was no wait. Only a few patrons were there at that time of the day. They have a special of 2 tacos and a shot for $8. We got that and added an extra taco for $2. They're small (street tacos) which is fine. They just lacked flavor. I got 2 chicken and a steak. They all tasted the same. I added the verde sauce they give with the tortilla chips which made them edible. I can't speak on the drink bc I handed that to my cousin. I don't drink. read more

Food is delish, never had anything bad off their menu. Drinks are some of the best in the DFW..

Got invited out to Gloria's on a Sunday afternoon. I've heard about Gloria's plenty times before but this was my first visit. Wasn't too hungry and wanted a small salad or something healthy. There was nothing available like that on the menu so I opted for the flautas. Both our meals came out very quickly so that was a pleasant surprise. The flautas were okay, nothing spectacular. The most memorable thing I had was the MELT DOWN!! O.M.G!!! My date informed me before ordering that the restaurant limits this drink to 2 per person because it's THAT STRONG!! If you're a light weight like me, be fair warned!! This will definitely get you tipsy and having 2 will definitely get you....well, many things you just may regret. This is just a disclaimer for light weights. My date also had one and he was fine. No plans to return but the drink was a surprise pick me up an a nice ice breaker for a first date! read more

In all fairness, I love Gloria's and have been to this location numerous of times, so this review largely reflects today's visit only. Perfect patio weather on this late Saturday afternoon, so decided to stop in for sips and eats on the patio. When we arrived, there were a few hostess at the stand, they greeted us and when we asked if we could be seated on the patio, we were directed out of the side door to the patio by a hostess. (Unfortunately, I did not get her name.) There was plenty of seating on the patio, so as the hostess was about to sit our menus and utensils down at a seat in the full sun, I politely asked if we could actually have a seat underneath one of the umbrellas. She became extremely irritated, snatched the menus off of the table and then proceeded to throw the menus and utensils down on the next table over. No exaggeration, she threw them down and walked off without saying another word to us. I was stunned as I've never had this type of service at Gloria's before. Unfortunately, this completely soured our dining experience for the evening and honestly has me questioning if I return to this location in the future. If something that small sets her off, as polite as I was and always am, she should definitely reconsider her position in the hospitality industry. I will say, our server Felipe, was great. Attentive and kind. It's a shame that the hostess's disgusting demeanor overshadowed his service. read more

While I enjoy coming here for the chips and bean dip, I am not pleased this go around. I was given a drinks menu but none of the prices are correct. When ordering the staff does not alert you about the price change. So not until I received my receipt did I know my item cost more than what I thought. I think this is very unprofessional. If the menu has changed there needs to be an updated menu. Very unhappy about this. read more

Gloria's is one of my favorite restaurants ever! I've been to multiple Gloria locations in the DFW, and they never disappoint. The service is always quick, the waiters/waitresses are always friendly, and most importantly the food and drinks NEVER FAILS. I've been able to try their sangrias and margaritas, they taste so good and they leave you feeling wonderful. I've also had the chance to try their nachos, shredded chicken burrito, and their breakfast omelette . And of course, their famous bean dip, salsa, and chips. Everything taste so good! It's so much goodness going into that food and environment, and thats why I love it. read more

First off, this place is great! My wife and I came here for dinner, and the vibe was awesome! We have not been to Gloria's in a while (A different location) and so glad we came. For appetizers, we ordered the Pupusas, handmade corn tortillas stuffed with cheese and pork, and Platano Frito, which is ripe plantain, fried and served with black beans and sour cream. Of course they also bring you chips and salsa, and everything was great. For entrees, I could not make up my mind. I literally narrowed down my choice to 7, than 5, than 2, and I finally ordered the combo enchiladas. Don't judge me, as I really try to watch what I eat, and enchiladas, are a great comfort food. For those of you that have not tried the Mariscada, Gloria's famous seafood soup made with shrimp, scallops, red snapper, mussels, lobster tail and vegetables, YOU NEED TO! My wife loved it, and was blown away on how much seafood was in the soup. You must, I mean must, have the Churros. They are stuffed with cajeta, vanilla custard, and chocolate, drizzled with dulce de leche, served with vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate. One of the best desserts I have ever had. Service was great and our overall experience was awesome! Stay hungry my friends... read more

The whole experience was great. The chips and salsa/black bean paste was delicious as was the guacamole. Our meals were super good as the flavors were spot on. Overall it was an excellent lunch. A bit pricey but well worth it. read more

We've started coming here once every couple of weeks for lunch and I just cannot rave enough about how good it is. We're always seated quickly and the restaurant is so clean and nice. The wait staff are spot on bringing you chips, salsa and that delicious bean dip within the first 30 seconds of sitting at the table. The wait staff takes great care of us and they have a really solid lunch menu. My sister and I are able to share combination fajitas for ONE and still be miserably full by the time we leave. This makes it very reasonable cost wise well. An all-around great experience every time we've been. read more

I finally checked out this place after hearing positive experiences from others. I ordered from their lunch menu their small size of chicken tortilla soup, that comes with their bean dip and complimentary bag of chips, salsa and lime. For dessert, I ordered the tres leches cake. The bartender appeared rushed and barely spoke before showing me where my order was. The chicken tortilla soup was full of flavor, fresh and filling. The bean dip was delicious as well as the chips. The cake was moist and flavorful. I look forward to checking this place out again. read more

Glorias is always a favorite. This location is literally directly underneath my office so I popped down for a quick lunch the other day. Sat at the bar and had this ceviche trio. I enjoyed it as usual. I will say, I remembered the ceviche having a little more flavor variation. Two of the kinds had almost the exact same flavor. But it was still delicious. The service is always A1 at Glorias, even when you're by yourself just having a quick lunch. I appreciate that. Out of the two locations near me I much prefer the one in Montgomery plaza in Fort Worth, personally, but this one is still adequate for some good Mexican food. Try their swirls. read more

I asked for a great margarita/chips place and ended up finally going to one. We went to Glorias tonight and it was amazing! The margarita was strong, the chips, salsa and bean dip we spot on and my server Enrique was great. I got the Pescado Acajutla and it was so yummy. The drinks are a little pricey, but to me they were worth it. I hate paying $$ for a watered down all mix margarita but these are NOT that. read more

For years have heard of Gloria's, now i know why. Excellent atmosphere and high quality, flavor packed food. The complimentary chips are possibly the best I have tasted. The plantains and pupas are 'don't miss' I look forward to a return visit read more

Gloria's is a Latin food restaurant chain located in the Highland's Shopping area of Arlington. The menu is very Salvadoran so far as having pupusas and plantains featured on their menus. Atmosphere: Inside definitely has an upscale vibe with nicely uniformed staff and a wide open white table clothed tables. Big windows allow lots of light in. That being said, it is most certainly a casual dining experience without the need for fancy dress. 1 Star Service: Although this is my first review, we have actually been to Gloria's many times in the past before I became a Yelp member. This is a testament to the quality of their food and the service we have received. Hostesses are always pleasant and smiling, as is the wait staff. 2 Stars Food: This is a nice change of pace from your typical Mexican and or TexMex restaurant. As stated above Pupusas are a top item on the menu and Fried Plantains are served with many meals. Our favorite item however is actually free. We come for the Black Bean Dip that they provide with their Chips and Salsa. It gives a unique contrast to your typical salsa. That being said, we have always been pleased with most every item we have ordered. On this day I chose the Fajita Beef Chimichanga and the wife ordered the Spinach Enchiladas. I felt the chimi could have used a little more time in the fryer, but it was still good even though a little on the cool side. The wife's enchiladas were top notch she said. 1.5 Stars Overall: 4.5 Stars It's nice to have a change of pace when you still want Latin cuisine but not necessarily Tacos and Burritos. Gloria's is that fresh air in the Mexican food segment. read more
