    Ambiance: A cute casual sit-down restaurant. Service: The servers were friendly! Our food came pretty quickly after ordering. Food: The salsa for the chips was great! It had a very Smoky and rich flavor. I ordered 2 tacos à la carte: The smoked elote chicken was good, but a bit too salty for my taste! The beef fajitas taco was great. I wish the tacos came with additional salsas like traditional taco joints.

    First time here - very attentive staff. Plates were reasonable for the size and it was absolutely delicious!! I would definitely come back.

    I cant believe this! I ordered Cabo Fish and Ocho Maya plate to go. I was super hungry, As I was driving, I ate almost all of 1st one, I felt some meat smell in the beginning and assumed its fish. I had to stop driving and park the car to open and actually see what I was eating, I think it is either pork or beef, It is surely not chicken. I dont eat beef or pork, I surely did not taste chicken. I am a hindu and I dont eat beef. I am extremly angry for this location to make me eat beef/ Pork.

    Nachos

    Food was freshly made and a nice waiter (Diego) immediately brought drinks and suggested an appetizer. I ordered the veggie tostadas, nachos and veggie burrito to go. Then I ordered every single vegan taco. I was pleasantly surprised when they came out because all the vegetables were seasoned well & cooked perfectly. The nachos were delicious because they were piled high with toppings and not soggy. I also noticed they generously added slices of avocado! My favorite taco was the "Rico Ocho". It had potatoes and a nice chili sauce. The waiter kindly brought me extra sauces to go with everything. I recommend the vegan tacos and tostadas, since not only are they healthy but tasted rich with culinary culture that isn't easy to find. 5 stars for the wonderful variety of vegetarian options & great customer service.

    This is a counter-service establishment and you get your drinks so it's great for larger parties!! I love the stubborn sodas, so yay!! The food was good but the brisket tacos had more onions than brisket so my kid hardly touched that and the beef Colorado tacos were so spicy she couldn't finish the first bite! She ended up eating a chicken quesadilla so she didn't go to bed hungry. The rice is great when dipped in the black beans! It's a nice place e to try! I

    Chips and Salsa
    John B.

    A local chain restaurant embedded in Dallas' sprawling suburbia. I don't know that every single thing is necessarily bigger in Texas, but the tacos here definitely were. My taco platter included two large tortillas, neither of which could quite hold the fillings they came with. Fortunately, things mixed well with rice and beans and some chips that were left over after I went through the salsa. Many vegetable-based options were offered, and I was quite happy with the ones I chose. It was tough to pick between the tacos and some of the more creative options, including a chickpea torta and a non-cheese quesadilla. This certainly exceeds my expectations for a taco chain in this area, and based on what I ordered, the rest is probably delicious as well.

    It's a cute local taco place with a good assortment of vegan options. Tried two of their vegan tacos-Madre Tierra Taco and Pura Vida Taco. Of these too I loved their Madre Tierra with kale and Uruguayan sauce-warm,delicious and flavorful. Pura vida was ok as I prefer my tacos warm than the ones with cold fillings. Looking forward to trying out their other vegan tacos. Customer service was good and the restaurant was clean.

    Ocho Burrito with Chorizo
    Josh M.

    Walked in close to lunchtime with a craving for some breakfast burritos on a gloomy day. I was met with smiles and the recommendation to try the chorizo and I went with bacon for good measure. They almost forgot to toss the salsa in the bad but close call was adverted and flavor what salvaged. As for the burritos the eggs were fresh and tortillas nicely charred but some fine tuning might be needed for an extra visit for breakfast. Potatoes were still a touch crunchy and both came with corn which made for an interesting addition but not one I'd make on my own accord. Otherwise salsas help to boost the flavor and the chorizo was a nice addition. Not bad but not my top spot for breakfast burritos. On to the next!

    Smoked Chicken Elote Taco and the Brisket Taco (with little sweet plantains hiding under all that meat).
    Cassandra R.

    My son is a nacho lover. I wish I'd grabbed a photo of the tower presented to him, but it looked so good we took a dive in and never looked back. Stubborn sodas are on tap and that's an easy win for me (well, really for him because I will say yes to sugar easier than corn syrup). I took a cute photo of my Chicken Elote Taco but the plantains hiding under the brisket was the best. I'm also 100% biased toward plantains. The Elote chicken taco tasted... chemically? Weird? I'm not sure. The brisket wasn't bbq brisket. It was stew-style brisket. It was good, but not what I originally expected. But you know already that I don't care because of the plantanitos. Overall, it was fine. We would go again, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get there.

    Nachos with brisket! So yummy!

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.

    First timer here!…read more Food 5/5: first time trying Brazilian food and it did not disappoint! The portions are perfect as a first time timer. I love the appetizer dishes. You are allowed to order 3 dishes each round for the apps. They come around with the pasta and meat portions. Bad thing is that you can never say no! Ambiance: it felt so cute and cozy!

Took care of us and always checked in :) Parking: free parking around the building!

    Until my most recent visit, Casa Pollastro was one of my favorite restaurants in the DFW area…read more Unfortunately, I did not love this last visit. First of all, I got an email inviting me to come visit the restaurant with a buy one get one free, but it kind of seemed like they were annoyed that we were using it. This could be just my anxiety, but I felt like we were treated a little bit less warmly by some of the staff than other tables. For example, a manager of some type was walking the floor. He stopped at the table before us and checked in on them, skipped us and went to the table after us and checked in on them, and then only on his way back to wherever he was going, he stopped reluctantly and acknowledged us. It definitely made me feel like we were not as welcome as the other tables. Second, I don't like the inclusion of the picanha for the higher price (vs. what they were doing before which was an upcharge if you wanted the steak), because the protein that I like at Casa Pollastro is the chicken. I don't really love their steak and do not want to pay $10pp more for it. Lastly, what I had loved about this restaurant in the past was that it felt like I was enjoying a meal at a family home, served with love and care. I think that they've made some changes which are smart for a restaurant, but it took away a lot of the warm and fuzzies for me. It felt like they're trying really hard to be a high-end restaurant but what I remember from this last experience was coldness and putting profit first. Now I can't be mad if they want to grow up as a restaurant and this is just part of the growing pains, but I will mourn the loss of the experience that we loved so much that we chose to have our engagement party at this restaurant. We will not be back.

All three of the people that came by to refill coffee and water and to check on us (multiple times) were very nice. We were fortunate to arrive at the perfect time for a Saturday morning, as we would find out in just a few minutes, as we watched the wait list grow. This being our first time, we weren't sure of the seating situation. I walked to the back, where the to-go pick up was located, to find that we can sit anywhere and that someone would come and help us. We did, and they did. I suggest you stop in and give Curuba a try. Very reasonable prices, lots of menu choices, wonderful staff, oh, did I mention the coffee? I love dark roast coffee, "Just black, please". This Columbian coffee is dark, rich, smooth and flavorful with an aroma that hits the senses with every taste. If you're a dark roasted coffee fan, stop in for a cup to go. You'll be back. And even better, the coffee comes from Columbia. They purchase it from a local importer (I believe). They provided the url via QR code. We believe in the "Buy local" philosophy. It's nice to see businesses doing business with local businesses. THE BAD: It's a small restaurant. Making a reservation (Open Table) is likely a good idea. We happened to find it at a slow moment on a Saturday morning. OVERALL: We're fans. I'd love to take our friends and family for lunch, or tell them about our new find. However, there are some things better kept to oneself.
