Met some friends for drinks and wound up having dinner. The dining atmosphere is very nice and the service was impeccable. Our waiter was very knowledgeable of the menu and I asked what his favorite item was and he share it was the Shrimp Tacos. I ordered them and the three (3) shrimp tacos were loaded with flavor and definitely filled me up and hit the spot. Due to COVID-19, it felt like the menu was somewhat limited but still decent. Living in San Antonio, I'll definitely be back to this location to try some of the other menu items to introduce other friends to Gloria's.

This was our best meal in Austin in terms of getting everything right. It is a large place with plenty of seating and enough staff to make the service prompt when you needed it. The menu fit everyone's diverse needs, and every one of our meals was perfectly prepared. I had the Pescado Gloria, which was perfectly done and just the right mixture of fish, soup and rice. We shared a bottle of Malbec that was reasonably priced compared to some of the other restaurants. Overall, the cost was lower than I expected given the really high quality of food and service. I'd go back there again and again if I lived there.

We stumbled across this restaurant as we we able to find a parking place nearby (not easy in Austin). We were very pleasantly surprised by the food and the efficient, friendly wait staff. The Latin cuisine was similar to Mexican but the flavors were more subtle and less spicy which is very much to my taste. I would recommend this place to others visiting Austin and will return there myself next time I am there.

We were visiting friends in Austin when they suggested a stroll around The Domaine and lunch at Gloria's. We were a group of seven that arrived without reservation very close to noon, but were seated with only a very short wait. Chips and salsa appeared on our table only moments after we sat and our drink orders were also taken in very short order.
I had the Chicken Enchilada with Verde sauce and it may well be one of the best Enchiladas I've ever had. My wife had the large Tortilla soup but would have been perfectly satisfied with the smaller size. Our dining companions were also very satisfied with their selections as well. Service was excellent with drinks and chip bowls being refilled before we even had to ask.
This was an excellent meal that I would highly recommend to anyone local or visiting from out of town.

We were seated promptly. Waiter—-Jesus R— took our drink orders literally as we were sitting down. 10-12 minutes later tea appeared. He asked if we needed more time with the menu……I said yes 2-3 more minutes. 15 minutes later my husband flagged down an employee who happened to be the manager, he asked if we needed something and my husband replied, yes we need to order. He was on spot…..took our orders, no pad or tablet, repeating it back dead on. About that time our waiter appeared with a startled look. Manager came back and refilled all 4 empty tea glasses (August in Texas). After that we were well taken care of because both of the, continued to check on us as if a competition. Food, average.

Had a very good lunch of tostadas and chili rellenos. Tostadas were crunchy, not soggy. Relleno was very good, but not battered if that is what you are used to. Iced tea was very refreshing but margaritas are delicious too. Service was good. Chips and salsa were great and the black bean dip that comes with the salsa is so good!

We booked for 12 at this eatery for our Granddaughter's 21st Birthday lunch.. Everything went well, the waitress was outstanding. All the food came off at the same time - Excellent Flavors, very extensive menu and good prices.

We stopped by here for lunch on Saturday. Nobody in view was wearing a mask, except customers; not the front desk staff, waiters, or bussers. We asked to eat on the patio with a masked server. They told us they only have one masked server, and he only works inside. We left. If you wish to follow health guidances for Covid -- eating outside and with masked servers - this is a lousy place.

A delicious experience !
From the moment you walk in, and receive a extremely nice welcoming.
To the amazing Dessert.
It is hard to describe the great time we had !
Just a symphony of flavors !
Chips,Salsa,Refried Beans. Just to Start.
Then you go to your main plate.
Succulent Carne Asada Made to Perfection.
The “Gloria’s” enchiladas. A dish you end cleaning totally the plate.
Those Bananas, and Rice. Second to none.
Everything just Incredible Good.
And the Desserts.
Oh Boy, “The Desserts”. So delicious.
A place that definitely offers amazing value.
In every way.
Don’t miss it.
I’ll bet will be in your favorites list.

My wife and I were in Austin for Valentine's Day, and we dined at Gloria's. It was FANTASTIC! The food was delicious, the service was first class, and the selection and quality of the margarita's was excellent! The atmosphere was also very nice. I would highly recommend Gloria's.

A very large restaurant next to Macy’s at The Domain. Large selection of mostly Tex-Mex and Mexican dishes. The food was tasty. The service by Ashley very friendly and gracious, and the food came out really fast. The hostess that took us to our table, however, not friendly at all; barely acknowledged us. Get a seat next to the windows; the salon itself could use more lighting and better decor.

Stopped by for late drinks and sat at the bar. Bartender gave his top three cocktails and made us two of the three. Both were amazing, would definitely go back for drinks alone. Did not try the food, but everything coming out looked and smelled amazing

I had dinner at Gloria's with a large group of people. Everybody raved about their dinner and mine was good too. Our waiter did forget to key in my dinner so i had dinner after everyone else but it was still great.

All being in corporate America all day long the one thing that I can look forward to is going to my spot of relaxation which would be this spot. The staffing is personable and friendly but my two favorite would be Jackie & Daphne those two are for sure to make your day a whole lot better...
The food is on point and the Margaritass are for sure to have you feeling them..

There was a 40min wait to sit inside, so we chose to sit outside.
The atmosphere was the best thing about this place. The food was just okay. . . the drink was okay . . .
I had a BLAST because I was with friends - but I feel like it's an overrated joint.
You're paying for atmosphere - and it's a nice one.
