Gloria’s Latin Cuisine is one of those places that instantly feels like a celebration the moment you walk in—lively energy, friendly staff, and the kind of menu that makes it hard to choose. But let me save you some decision time: get the chimichangas. Seriously. The chimichangas here were the standout of our entire meal. Perfectly golden and crispy on the outside without being greasy, and packed with flavorful filling that stayed juicy and hot all the way through. The texture was on point—crunchy shell giving way to tender meat and a well-seasoned interior that tasted fresh, not bland or “prepped hours ago.” The toppings and sides pulled everything together too: the sauce added just the right amount of richness, and every bite had that balance of savory comfort food with bright Latin flavors. If you like a little kick, they also have options to level it up, but even as-is, the seasoning is excellent. Service was another win. Our server was attentive without hovering, checked on us at the right times, and kept drinks refreshed. The food came out fast, and everything was presented nicely—no sloppy plating, no lukewarm plates. Overall, Gloria’s delivered a great experience, but those chimichangas are the reason I’ll be back. If you’re craving something crispy, satisfying, and full of flavor, this is the move. Highly recommend!

Came for dinner with some friends and I was surprised by the ambience! It’s really classy with plenty of space. The food was delicious and I can’t wait to come back to try different plates. I will say the guava margarita was strong if you aren’t used to liquor.

Overall wonderful experience dining here. I've been going to Gloria's for years and have dined at a few of their locations, and today was my first time going here, and like the others, this one is consistent and knows what they're doing. The restaurant was full as usual for Friday night dinner, but my mother and I were seated with no wait. Service was great and our waiter was with us within seconds of being seated, and a few seconds later we were given our chips and dips. The dining room was very upscale, and presentation was on point. We ordered the fajitas and carne asada. Both were brought to our table by one of the chefs, and everything was delicious. The chicken in the fajitas were full of flavor, and all the sides were very high quality. The carne asada was amazing, I have never had such a good skirt steak, it was tender and juicy, and the seasoning was perfect. Pricing is very good for what was offered, and I left happy. I look forward to dining here more when they move to the new Plano location!

My family has gone to Gloria’s in Frisco for many years, and most of the time I ordered carne asada. The meat is tasty, and comes with yucca and plantain which I like. But in my visit last week, I wanted to have something other than beef. So I tried serrano garlic salmon. It was delicious: the salmon, the elote, and everything else! The portion is just right, too, not too much. It’s definitely a worthy option for me besides carne asada next time 😊 By the way, our server, Claudia, was also great: attentive and friendly 👍 PS: Another recommendation: try ceviche trio. It’s a refreshing appetizer.

Gloria’s is always Great! Hostesses are always welcoming and cheerful. Staff is attentive and walking the extra mile. Domingo provided excellent service and helped me with the menu. Kid’s menu is a great value, comes with dessert. Atmosphere is always jolly. And Abel, the manager always stops by to ask if everything is being taken care to our satisfaction. 100

What a great meal! I grew up on the Mexico/ Texas border and east Mexican food majority of my week. It was refreshing to try other Latin foods and such great flavor! Que Rico! The appetizer and the dessert stole the show tonight - the orange roughy ceviche (Wowsers!) was so light and subtle- i could of eaten 7 pounds of it I thought! Then we had the Carna Asada (skirt steak) and the smothered steak. Both packed with flavor, and cooked to order perfectly. But the dessert... oh man! Growing up on the border Tres Leches has always been a favorite of mine, in fact it was my grooms cake at my wedding decades ago... but these guys... these guys some how figured out how to add another milk in and keep it firm! If you go to this restaurant... get the Quatro Leches cake -a must have!

I recently revisited this place after a long time, and I was delighted to find that the food remains as tasty as ever with consistent quality. The service was commendable, and the ambiance added to the overall pleasant dining experience. Definitely worth coming back to!

Frequent visitors and this place seldom misses. Always greeted with a friendly staff and smiles. Went for brunch and had the spicy sopes and wifey had the brisket & eggs tostones. Very good dishes. Pomegranate Mimosas at $5.00 were awesome. I do want to give special kudos one of the managers, Jazmin. Met her today for the first time and she talked to us for about 10 minutes. We talked about Mexican dishes and the Gloria's brand. Such a wonderful person she is. Just one of the reasons why we frequently visit the Gloria"s family branded restaurants. Another great experience. Wishing Jazmin much luck with her pregnancy. (:

I’ve been coming to Gloria’s since I moved to Texas back in 2003. And let me tell you I’ve never taken a picture, never posted a review, never needed to. I just walk in, order my margarita, get my Mariscada (OG Gloria’s fans know it as The Siete Mares), and roll out with a full belly and a happy soul. That’s been the rhythm for years. But today? Today we switched it up. We added the combination platter to the table and it did not disappoint. Perfectly balanced, flavorful, and satisfying in that way only Gloria’s can deliver. And yes, when my everything goes with me, he gets the Mariscada too. Because that dish? It’s sacred. Steaming hot, rich, soulful seafood magic in a bowl. Gloria’s doesn’t just serve food, they serve tradition, consistency, and a kind of culinary comfort that’s hard to put into words. This place is more than a restaurant it’s a ritual. A place that’s stood the test of time in my life. And after all these years, they still get it right. Every. Single. Time. #HayiaSophia #HayiaSophiaFaves

We ere visiting Frisco for a gymnastics meet. A friend suggested Gloria's for an early dinner. The atmosphere was bright and inviting. Tge music was upbeat and fun. Our waitress was nice but I noticed throughout service her attentiveness declined. I had to ask several times for refills on drink. The food was tasty and flavorful. I had the red snapper and rice. I ordered veggies on the side and it was delicious. The restaurant was clean, including the bathrooms. I would definitely return.

They were able to handle a super large group of 13 at lunch. Food came quickly, drinks kept full. Queso was super yummy. Tropical salad really needs some cheese. But fruit and dressing was delicious. Chicken was good. Overall a good meal with good service.

The atmosphere was really good, it was lively and chatty. The music was there but wasn’t too loud either. The staff were really nice, and the food arrived relatively quickly. I think the presentation of the food was above and beyond, my fajita came in smoking hot, but the taste was alright.

I had a good experience in Gloria’s. From the moment we walked in the ambiance was warm and inviting. The staff were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, which made us feel well taken care of throughout the evening.

Gloria’s Latin Cuisine absolutely *understood the assignment* — from the first bite of those enchiladas to the last chip dipped in salsa, we were fully in our happy food era. The tacos were flavor-packed little masterpieces, and don’t even get me started on the chips… dangerously addictive in the best way. The whole vibe felt warm and inviting, like dinner at a friend’s house who just happens to be an elite-level chef. Our whole family was obsessed, happy.

We visited for the first time at this new location yesterday about 5pm. I had high expectations because the Addison location was always great. It was busy so we decided to sit at the bar. I feel we spent a lot of time and energy trying to get the bartenders attention. We understand it was busy, but you can bartend and be attentive to paying customers. The food was OK. But on top of all that, the vibe and atmosphere was off. There were no good interactions with other people at the bar that I noticed. I felt the bartenders were more task oriented. No “thanks for coming in” when we paid our bill or was leaving. We won’t be back.

Nobody speaks English at the bar and are very rude it's not very nice! They have little girls being host-ess and not very professional! I recommend Cristinas. Way better atmosphere and the servers are amazing.. This is only my personal option but for the price you might as well go to Cristinas in Firewheel..

I’ve dined at several Gloria’s locations throughout the DFW area and have generally had positive experiences, which is why I was looking forward to visiting the new Plano location. Unfortunately, my two visits have been disappointing. During my first visit, shortly after opening, a guest in my party ordered the fresh blackened red snapper. The fish contained several small bones, which raised concerns about preparation and quality. We did address this with the manager at the time. On my second visit, the overall experience felt noticeably below the standard I’ve come to expect from Gloria’s. The service was not welcoming, and our waiter was inattentive. We were a party of six, and although I understand the refill policy for the aguas frescas, we requested a refill for horchata and never received it. Additionally, the food seemed overly bland and portions appeared smaller than what I’ve experienced at other locations. I truly hope this location improves, as Gloria’s has a strong reputation across DFW. At this time, however, the Plano location does not reflect the level of service and consistency I associate with the brand.
