The frozen prickly pear margarita is delicious and strong! Two of them and I'm ???? Helps keep you cool through these hot San Antonio summer

Elena Hoffman

Awesome tostadas and Elotes! Also good selection of cocktails (that can easily be made virgin). Definitely street food style on a plate.

Visit San Antonio

Be sure to sample several of La Gloria’s authentic Mexican dishes like the ceviche , queso and molcajetes . Talk with Chef Johnny Hernandez if you need to accommodate a special diet ! –Race to the Alamo

This place is awesome! We are here in San Antonio for vacation. It's our 3rd day in a row @ La Gloria. The food is fresh & delicious! If you are in San Antonio, this is a must!

AndrewGroveSanAntonio Grove

Great ceviche ! Chips/queso/guacamole were all good too. Service was attentive and atmosphere fun. Will go back.

Monet Spells

Had the the Panucho Cochinita Pibil , the elote and the ceviche verde -- all delicious. But you can't go wrong with anything you order

Clark Lesley

They don't have "happy hour " but they have good tacos and Aguas frescas (try the Jamaica.) The Queso is super good and served with white corn tortillas . Be careful if you ask for chips , you'll pay.

safoodiegram

Hernandez has perfected the mexican street food scene with a bonus riverwalk view . What to order: frozen drinks , guacamole , roasted corn (elote ) & a skirt steak molcajete .

Cemil A.

Very good choice for those who love mexican foods . Everything I tasted was so delicious, I strongly recommend. Reasonable price and good service ..

Nicole Spacey

This is THE BEST food! The fried tacos with verde and the red sauce were fantastic! Try everything, you won't regret it. I regret we found it on our last night in town !

Amanda Rae

Although it is a little pricey , the food & drinks are so good! My favorite is the prickly pear margarita ! They are definitely worth the price!

Rossy Benavidez

Margaritas , queso fundido and alambre tacos are what I usually order when I go here! ???????? However, service might be slow depending on how busy it gets.

Darden Rice

Hands down, the best authentic Mexican food we encountered. Even the tortilla chips . The big pot of simmering pork amazing.

JenKudu

Queso fundido was solid. The al pastor tacos are some of the best I've had. The mangorita was okay. I disliked the chips , too thick!

Justin Wideman

I love this place. The food is always great. It's served A La Carte so be sure you pay attention to pricing and servings!

Daniel Ballesteros

House salsa is good. You can taste the roasted tomatillos and it has a slight tobacco flavor to it somehow.

Allison Morang Talon

The ceviche is fantastic. Sitting outside is the way to go.

Mat Brown

The steak molcajete was, honest to God, one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. I live in New York City .

Lauren Bernal

Food has never done it for me, but theory's are good and strong. Original, mangonada, and many of the others were awesome.

sad chalupa

A bit pricey , but definitely worth it! Love the margaritas !

Abner Aceves

Sopes are delicious. The Paloma is one of the best I've ever had anywhere. Must try.

Ramon Gonzalez

Molcajete : Puercos con Chile and a Corn on the Cob is perfect every time!

Heather Speck

Ever thought liquor in your Agua Frescas would be a good idea? Try La Sandia. "Grown-Up" Agua Frescas for sure ;)

Jack Bragan

The tacos I'll plus store were great ... Getting the food out was a little bit slow but the waitresses were very nice..

Emily Carlton

Tiny street portions, so get multiple items if you're hungry. Dorados Verdes was excellent!

Josh Richline

All of their margaritas and drinks that say "lime juice " used fresh squeezed lime juice ...watched her do it.

Mario Giacalone

Always packed but hang around the outside bar easily snag a seat enjoy some great cocktails by Armando and listen to the band

John C

the tamale of the day was substantial in size and delicious and so was the elote .

Francisco Perez

Good ceviche . The bun on the hamburger was hard. The tortillas for the tacos weren't hot. The order of my appetizer and entree were reversed.

Gina R.

I had the avocado panuchos . Great vegetarian option . Ridiculously good. And their queso is amazing!

Tiffany Clearstone

Decently good fish tacos . One is enough. Will try different one.

Shena Duns

This place is fresh and flavorful. Smaller portions so you can try more items. Feel good food.

Lisa Roll

This is a great place for Mexican street food . Love the outdoor seating .

Jaime Legarreta

Love the atmosphere and the drinks! Great for summer nights

Jantzen Foster

Margaritas are strong. They also have a tequila that can only be found at La Gloria

Ally Hernandez

Be sure to get the Hamberguesa, for sure one of the best things to get on the menu. I get it every time I'm here YUMMY!

Wes Scales

The house marg is to die for, and the mangolada is quite tasty too

Daniel Ballesteros

Everything is a la cart so order up the goodness.

Mary

Try a variety of the drinks made with fruit juices . Very refreshing and delicious with taquitos .

Bart B

great venue. fantastic ambiance. and you pay for it in mediocre food with a great vibe. do it once.

Laksamee Putnam

Great food and drinks! We recommend the ceviche and anything listed on the servers shirts .

Ellie Holmes

Portions are small so get lots if little things. Mexican pizza is HUGE. But so good. Wonder why frozen Ritas cost more though.

Maclovio Garcia

It was alright. Best part is the scenery. Had a torta and it was mostly bread . Need to upgrade wherever they get their pan!

R B

La Gloria margarita !!! Delicious! Also Baja fish tacos

Seth Sanchez

They're open everyday of the week now! I also got a free mexican coke for showing them I checked in on foursquare. :3 I think the server was just nice.

Karen Stewart

Highly recommend the prickly pear margarita . Worth every penny.

Patrick Haley

Great place for a unique Mexican meal (not TexMex ).

Tiffany Nikkel

La Gloria's is losing their mojo . There's been a steady decline over the last year or so in food and service. What gives?

Maggie C Perkins

Belly up to the the bar if you're eating alone and skip the wait.
