Beautiful restaurant! As a graphic designer, i appreciate that the restaurant, website, and menu are so visually tied together. I came here with a work group and we were seated somewhat quickly. First off - their house-made salsas and black bean dip were incredible! I could've made a meal from those alone! We had delicious cocktails and passed around a sampling of appetizers - pupusas, tamales, and plátano fritos. I ordered a trio of tacos that were great, along with a prickly pear margarita (amazing!). The brisket taco was the real standout of the group. Overall, my experience at Gloria's was great - delicious food, attentive service, and fair portions. read more

NEW LOCATION * NEW LOOK * STUNNING! This new build of Gloria's will transport you from Plano, Texas right into a Mexican resort. From the moment you step into they foyer, yes there is a foyer and enter the main building the decor, the music, the live plants, the colors - ALL of it are straight out of a tropical resort. We chose to sit on the covered patio, think lanai. My husband and I couldn't get over how much it reminded us of our vacations to tropical resorts. The famous chips, salsa and bean dip has not changed, thank goodness! The menu hasn't changed, but we were able to partake in the brunch menu on this Sunday morning. I stuck with my favorite Tropical Salad with fresh mangos and berries topped with grilled chicken. My husband enjoyed the brunch menu Breakfast Tacos with fresh fruit and enjoyed the hearty portion with brisket. Our kiddos stuck with the kid's menu grilled chicken and chicken nuggets - all were pleased. They were especially thrilled the kids menu comes with a scoop of ice cream! The service was the usual friendly and speedy but not rushed. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will be back to this beautiful new location! read more

Tried Gloria's for dinner the first time in their new location and was disappointed. Let's start with the chips and salsa - chips were fine, but the salsa was watered down. Not a good start. Ordered a frozen swirl margarita and normally this drink would give me a buzz. Not this time. Couldn't tell if there was alcohol in it. Maybe they're skimping on the Top Shelf? Ordered enchiladas- beef with red sauce, and chicken with sour cream sauce. The chicken was moist, but both sauces were bland. Like seriously-no taste. The rice on the plate was shaped liked a hockey puck and had the same consistency. Didn't order dessert. Was pretty put off by the food. I really hope they get their act together and stop cutting corners. The new place is nice, but I feel like they're trying to save $$ to pay for this new location. I'll try again in a few months. They got 3 stars for nostalgic reasons and a hope they get back to what made them so good before. But for now, cost cutting is the primary menu item. read more

Checked out the new Gloria's in Plano. It did not disappoint!! Samuel, our server at the bar was awesome! He greeted us right away. We ordered 2 delicious top shelf margaritas on the rocks and they did not disappoint. They were delicious. The chips and salsa, black bean dip, and green sauce are always delicious. Ordered queso and it was on point. Main dish was chicken and beef fajitas for one, which was plenty of food for both of us. Everything was delicious! The restaurant is beautiful and super clean. Very spacious and plenty of room for groups! Plenty of parking. You can't go wrong with Gloria's. Top notch service and food!! read more

I recently visited the new Mexican Sugar location in Frisco for lunch, and this was my first time experiencing the new space. First impressions--beautiful. The building is stunning, the décor is elevated, and the layout is much more spacious compared to the previous Gloria's location. You can definitely tell there was a full renovation, and it gives a more modern, open feel. I arrived right around opening (11 AM) and chose to sit at the bar. There were a few guests already there enjoying drinks and chips, which created a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The bar staff--two gentlemen--were kind, attentive, and professional. I ordered a glass of Chardonnay, which came out promptly and was excellent. However, the timing of the food service is where things fell short. I ordered shrimp tacos, yet a guest seated next to me--who ordered after I did--received his entrée (which appeared to be a steak dish) well before mine. Considering it wasn't busy, this was a bit surprising. I did have to follow up on my order before it was brought out. When my food arrived, it was good overall, but it could have been warmer. I also added mixed vegetables, and this is something I want to highlight for safety purposes. The vegetables included greens like spinach with stems that were not properly trimmed or cut. I actually had a moment where I almost choked, which was concerning. This is definitely something the kitchen should review, as it could pose a risk if not prepared carefully. Overall, I would rate this experience a 7/10. The ambiance, drinks, and overall quality of food were solid, and I will absolutely return--Gloria's/Mexican Sugar has always been one of my go-to spots in Dallas. With a few improvements in food timing, temperature, and preparation details, this location has the potential to be exceptional. 7/10 read more

They closed their Frisco location and opened up here in Plano next to Eddie's. This location opened up about a month ago - stop by! This location is so fancy with the decor! This truly feels like a major upgrade with the lighting and amount of decorations. The ratio of meet and cheese on the steak fajita nachos is quite nice - it's a very filling meal. Shout-out to our waiter, Daniel, for making conversation with us. Overall a friendly place with good food. I've been to Gloria's in different locations before and this is my first post! read more

Food was amazing! We ordered the steak flambeado and the Carne Asada, both super tender and seasoning was on point. Beautiful place. But the best was our waitress Estefani, she went above and beyond for us. Great customer service, will definitely come back when visiting the Dallas area. read more

This is my new favorite Gloria's!!! I'm already at Gloria's all the time, but this new restaurant is amazing! I love the colors they chose to decorate with. The plants are nice touch. The restaurant is bright and very spacious. The bar area has so much room for seating. My Al Carbon tacos were perfect. I would say, one area for improvement is how they season the grilled vegetables. They tasted off and soggy. Other than that, we left the restaurant content, full, and satisfied! I cannot wait to go back. read more

excellent service. food always on point. HONESTLY.... any glorias has THE ABSOLUTE best service! I travel the world & nothing comes close. my favorite dish is glorias super special. You also cant go wrong on any drink, including the mocktails. read more

Can't really go wrong with the food at Gloria's! I do like this new location as opposed to the former location. This one feels new and frankly is in a better and soon to be booming spot. The staff is friendly overall. I love how modern the ambiance and smells new just walking in. The only issue I have overall is that it takes a little long to get your check, especially if you have a big group of people. However, I do understand it's more of a social spot, maybe just not as work lunch fast. read more

Definitely disappointed tonight here at Gloria's. I usually come here with basic expectations because I know what I'm going to get. Seems like since they moved locations the quality has gone down. The service was average, not too attentive but polite. The food was not hot and you can tell it sat in the back for a while before it was served. The esthetic of the restaurant is nice and the modern. Timing from the kitchen would be great. I really hate eating lukewarm food. Most likely won't frequent this place read more

Beautiful new location! Really loved the inside, it's so much brighter than the previous location across the street. Service and food amazing as always. read more

My husband and I have been going to Glorias for a very long tine. We loved the new Frisco/Plano location, the food tastes fresh and the service is excellent! I guess they have changing their menu items, the black bean dip was my favorite! I got take out yesterday and the black bean dip cups were less than half full. The previous time, the black bean dip was so garlicky I burped day! Please dont mess with my dip! read more

From out of town on business. The ladies at our hotel recommended this restaurant and it was worth the recommendation. The chips, salsa and bean dip was great. Had chicken and steak fajitas they were delicious. Also had a frozen Margarita but not sure if there was alcohol in there. Thought the margarita was a little pricey for the size of glass. Our waiter was fantastic he made sure we had water in our glasses. Asked if we needed anything. The manager also came by our table; she also checked on all the tables where we were sitting. If we come back to the area, we will go back. read more

Ambiance is horrible! When this location was in Frisco, I would have given it 10 stars out of 5! The patio was GREAT! The food was great the service was great! Now the only part that Ican say is great it the bar area. Beautiful! Something you would expect in UPTOWN. BUT:......the Frisco location was more fun! Food was better and Service was better. I will get food for takeout, but I will never return for in restaurant dining! read more

Gloria's never misses! The new location in Plano is aesthetically pleasing and such a vibe. The servers are always kind and accommodating. Most of all the food is consistently delicious. My coworkers and I always come here when we are celebrating or just need a mood boost. We always have a good time and always happy with our food and service. Last time I came, I had the steak and it was melt in my mouth good! The new mocktails/alcohol free drinks are really good. We love the chips and black bean dip too. read more

The ambiance was very pretty. The service was amazing. We had a few different people check in on us while we were there to make sure everything was going well. The food was amazing as well! I got the fish tacos and my boyfriend got the Carne Flameada. Both were good but my boyfriend's dish was amaziiing! If you like Carne Asada, try this dish too. read more

Service was great and I liked the outdoor seating. The fajita beef was very tough and hard to chew through. The chicken was also tough too, but thankfully no bad or fatty parts like the beef. The steak Chile relleno was very good. The steak quesadillas were fine. Nothing special, but tasted good. More meat is always nice with those. The verdes enchiladas were good, but needed a drizzle of sour cream across them or something. I had to get some sour cream from someone else's plate to help give them some cream to balance out the tomato taste. I love verdes enchiladas, but this one just needed a bit of cream to me. The rice was very bland sadly. Needs some seasoning. Salsa and beans were good, we enjoyed those very much. read more

This was our first time at this Gloria's location in Frisco. We had eaten previously at Gloria's Addison location. This Frisco location will soon be moving across Hyw 121 to Plano! Our servers were Alex and Juan. They did a good job in attending our table as reflected in the gratuity. The food came out very timely. All the food was delicious! A supervisor stopped by and asked if everything was satisfactory. Other restaurants could learn from this basic courtesy. This is a busy place on Saturday afternoons. I'm looking forward to the opening of the new Plano location. read more

Beautiful new building , service and food for anyone. Server was prompt, helpful and knowledgeable. All in all a great lunch.

We went here for dinner after visiting Kidzania at the nearby mall. It's less than a 5 minute drive from the mall. We are big fans of Gloria's and have been to many of their locations. This location and the experience did not disappoint. We were seated immediately and within seconds our waitress appeared. She had a relaxed attitude when I said we need a minute to get settled and decide on drinks. Sometimes you get an attitude like "order now" but Christa was really nice throughout our meal. Eventually, we decided. I went with the "top shelf" margarita and it was excellent. Dangerously excellent if you know what I mean. As in gone in seconds and give me another! The wife had a Mexican martini and it was excellent too. I ordered the Chile Relleno with fajita chicken and it was excellent. The pepper is not deep fried but grilled so it had a smoky flavor. The chicken was also smoky and tender. The pepper is stuffed with cheese and chicken so it was a big meal. The dish also came with rice, beans, and an extra enchilada. I chose cheese with chili con carne. It was excellent. For $17 it was a ton of food and really good quality. Very pleased. The wife had a grilled chicken breast (sorry, forget the name). It came with an extra enchilada and rice and beans. Chicken breast can often be dry or overcooked. Hers was perfect. The chicken was moist, tender, smoky, and had great flavor. It was outstanding. Our server could not have been nicer. She was super efficient. Very friendly and helpful. Christa was absolutely great and I would ask for her again. The ambience is similar to other Gloria's restaurants--modern, clean, comfortable. There is a very large outside eating area for when the weather is nice. Overall, we had a great meal and a great experience. We do not go to Frisco very often, but I would definitely return to this Gloria's. read more

The brunch menu is awesome. It was a very hard decision on what to order. We are definitely going back next week because there are a few more items we need to try. The eggs, tostones, and eggs a caballo were delicious. And BTW, the service at the bar was excellent. The ambiance was great and not overcrowded. read more

Always so good. Consistent and always fresh. Plantains and yucca are also lso so good. Service at this location is also so good and helpful and efficient. This location has a really nice outdoor seating but it can noisy with the traffic. read more

First time at the new location. So beautiful and it just feels better. Employees were great. Minimum menu today because of Mother's Day, but of course I asked for something off menu, and server said "I'll make it happen". Food is so great! read more

I've been going to Gloria's since I moved to Texas in 2003--and I've never once taken a picture of my plate or left a review. Why? Because when something becomes a ritual, you stop documenting and just live it. Every visit has been the same glorious rhythm: walk in, order my margarita (strong and perfectly balanced), and without hesitation, ask for the Mariscada. If you know, you know. OG fans still call it The Siete Mares. It's not just a seafood soup--it's a warm, flavor-packed embrace from the Latin food gods. The kind of dish that silences a table. But today, we decided to shake things up. We added the combination platter to the mix--because sometimes life calls for options. And it delivered. Every bite was bold, intentional, and comforting. And yes--when my everything comes with me, he doesn't browse the menu either. He gets the Mariscada. Because that's what real ones do. Gloria's is more than just a restaurant to me. It's a memory keeper, a chill vibe. A place I've gone back to over and over for 20+ years, and they've never let me down. Not once. That's rare. If you're new here, get the Mariscada. Then come back for everything else. #HayiaSophia #HayiaSophiaFaves read more

Came in on a Monday at 1pm. Bar was dirty guy next to me told me the people left a while ago. I just pushed up the signed tab and water and waited. Boy did I wait I needed to send off a contract and when I asked a passing waiter he said no WiFi. No worries I have hot spot but no hello no water no give me a sec from anyone. So 10 min later still nothing which is unfortunate love supporting Latin owned businesses but won't deal with terrible service. Told my husband to meet me somewhere else if we are going to run up a tab I want it somewhere they will appreciated it. We work from home so frequent the bar often to work and eat (drink ) several days a week. read more

Let's just go straight to the food. I've had many pupusas in my lifetime, and you can taste the love & experience Gloria puts in her food. Soft, warm tortilla on the outside, and deliciousness in the inside. The banana wrapped tamale was perfectly portioned in regards to the rice and protein balance. The bean rice was moist, not overly cooked or dry, and flavorful. Service was great. Plenty of seating, and welcoming vibes. There's plenty of parking and shopping around the area. When it's done right, there's really not much else to say about this place. People rave about this place, and I can taste why. read more

Worst service I have ever had at Gloria's. Came in sat at the bar and ordered a drink with intention to also order food. Was given the drink but was never given a menu or even asked if I was going to order food. I had to flag down the waiter after about 15 minutes to ask him if I can order some food. Once the food was ordered, no server ever came back over to ask me if everything was good. Never offered me any water. Was never asked if there was anything else I could do for me if I wanted another drink whole time I'm sitting at the bar absolutely no service towards me. However, other couples sitting at the bar were getting all the attention. Been sitting here for over 20 minutes no one has ever come over to take my check and my card has been sitting out the whole time. It's not even that busy at the bar. There's no reason why every customer sitting at the bar should not have the time and attention as other people. I should not have to constantly flag someone down for service. Definitely will never be back to this location. read more

We had enjoyed the prior location for the good food at a reasonable price, and we had lunch on the 2nd day of the new location's soft launch. The space is different in a good way, not cramped with high ceilings and lots of light, an upscale feel making for a more valuable experience. read more

Love Gloria's! It's been a staple for me for a dozen years now (in fact, one of my first conversation with my now husband was how Gloria's sangria swirl is the superior dfw drink).

I went to the new location on Preston Road. The atmosphere is very sterile and plain, sort of like eating in a cafeteria. The chairs looked like they came from Target or Walmart. The patio was very plain - in no way resembling a real patio. The food was still very good so we will continue to go there, but not with as much enthusiasm. read more
