"Was looking for a quick meal to grab when I stopped here starving. This Venezuelan eatery offers all the typical fare you?d expect (at great prices) and even has a couple notable specials like 2 of their Engy Hot Dogs with a fountain soda for only $3.99 after 3p.m. I decided to go for their ?You Can?t Eat Just One Empanadita? special to start which includes 3 fried empanadas of your choice and a fountain soda for $3.99. The empanadas were mediocre, nothing special to rave about though I really enjoyed their house sauces served with them which you shouldn?t miss out on! For my entree I decided to get their Steak Pepiarepa $8.99 since I had never seen anything like it before. Their Pepiarepas are fried arepas cut into chunks, cabbage, tomatoes, ham, boiled egg, mustard, ketchup and their house ?engy? sauce so kind of like a deconstructed arepa served in a bowl with your choice of protein. I think I would have preferred ordering a normal stuffed arepa to this even though the flavors and combination were somewhat tasty. Some of the ingredients (like the arepa and steak pieces) were over cooked making it chewy and the whole thing taste pretty second-rate. I did come 30 minutes before closing which I usually try to avoid and maybe is why my meal came out just okay. The staff was very friendly and it was an inviting eatery, but I can?t see myself venturing back any time soon."

"Came here for dinner on Sunday night and it was BUSY to say the least! Although this is the second time I've tried to eat at this Gloria's, I apparently didn't get the hint by making a reservation beforehand! The whole meal that we had had tasted great,our server was so nice, and we had a good time. The only thing that wasn't good were the drinks. We started off by ordering somemargaritas on the rocks the Spicy Mango and Spicy Pineapple Margaritas. One sip in and my drink was entirely too sweet sowas my friend's. We didn't want to complain but they were just too sweet to drink. Our server was so nice and offered to replacethem. We ended up ordering two Palomas in Moscow. When we tried those drinks we realized that the margaritas weren't a fluke butat that point it was the bartender the Palomas were too sweet as well. Come to find out from our server later, their regularbartenders weren't working that night and the two they had were fill ins. That was a let down. Because I don't like to wastealcohol ????(and our server had kindly said before he brought the Palomas out that we couldn't swap again) I slowly drank mydrink but it took me a while, even after finishing my meal. Besides that, all of our food tasted great. We shared the Pupusasand the Combination Fajitas. The Pupusas were hot and delicious and the slaw was just right. The Fajitas were also really good,the steak cooked just right and both the corn and flour tortillas tasted great. The rice and beans that are usually an afterthought at many other Tex Mex and Latin restaurants were also really good the rice was so flavorful! For dessert we endedeverything out with the Flan (mainly because it's my one and only favorite dessert and I hadn't tried it at Gloria's before),and it was so decadent and creamy! That was one of the best Flan's I've ever had ???? Besides the bad drinks and they were bad the rest of my meal was really good and our server was very attentive and super nice. I will def"

"I would rate this place 0 stars if I could, we went today with a party of 10 we made reservations 2 days ago, we get there and they say they don?t even have our reservation so it takes about 20 min to get seated. We then get seated and no one comes around to give us anything we ordered 2 trays of appetizers and drinks and our orders and an hour later they gave us 2 rounds of drinks (because we asked 1 basket of chips ? FOR THE WHOLE TABLE? and our appetizers AFTER we went and complained to the owner. (The table behind us came after us and got their tray of appetizers first. it was my grandmas bday and the food only got worse. The carne asada was green! The carne adobada was both overcooked and undercooked at the same time, had no flavor was half bone and my cousin received a piece of tin foil in the beans. The pollo en crema was gross, they served us spoiled salsa! It was sour and had a spoiled taste. And everyone got sick afterwards. And they had the nerve to charge us $300!!!!!!!! For that horrible experience!!! Took 2 hours and nobody finished their food except for 1 person. 4 out of 10 plates we only took 2 bites and left it all there! The waiter was rude and disrespectful and the owner even knew my grandma said he remembered her and even danced with her a little. If that doesn?t at least deserve decent service idk what does. BEWARE!!!! Stay away!!! Gross food, incompetent service, you have to pay for parking, and you get food poisoning and OVERPRICED!! My family and I were all very mad and dissapointed. Never ever ever going back."
