" Delicious food at Gloria's! I highly recommend the pupusas—my absolute favorite. They are crispy soft, and bursting with flavor. Service was quick, if not a little rushed, but the staff was friendly and attentive. The environment is colorful and vibrant; however, the seating can feel a bit tight during busy hours. I definitely recommend making a reservation if you're coming during dinner time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gloria's Cafe never disappoints when we come as a family! Each of us ordered different dishes, everything from fried fish to burritos and pupusas. Each dish had its unique flavor, and we couldn’t stop talking about how delicious everything was. The staff was friendly and accommodating even when it was packed. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking authentic Salvadoran cuisine. It’s worth the travel time for us! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gloria's Cafe provides a unique taste of Salvadoran culture through its food and welcoming atmosphere. I loved the fresh ingredients in all the dishes. The service was okay but could have been more attentive at times. The decor is charming and gives a homey feel. Overall, I left satisfied but felt like there could be improvements in service. I'd recommend this place if you are craving authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience! I love the vibrant atmosphere that Gloria's offers. I ordered the Carne de Res with rice & beans; the flavor was authentic and fulfilling. It’s evident the ingredients are fresh and made with care. My server greeted me with a smile and regularly checked in on how I was enjoying my meal. I’m thrilled to have found this gem and would recommend it to anyone looking for a taste of El Salvador. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a large family gathering at Gloria's and the staff could not have been more accommodating. We ordered various dishes to share, including the Seven Seas Soup, which was remarkable—promptly served and packed with seafood goodness. Pupusas were also a crowd-pleaser at our table! The ambiance is very homey and even though we took over half the restaurant, the staff was cheerful and attentive. It's a family-friendly place, perfect for gatherings, and genuine Salvadoran food makes it even better. I’ll be returning very soon for another family meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Gloria's Cafe was an absolute highlight of our trip! From the moment we entered, the cheerful ambiance welcomed us. We ordered the pupusas and they were out of this world - rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I particularly loved how they paired with the pickled cabbage served on the side. The friendly staff made us feel right at home, and I can't wait to return for more of that delicious Seven Seas Soup next time. Highly recommend this hidden gem! I'm giving it all fives - can't say enough good things about this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I first visited Gloria's Cafe for the pupusas and left impressed by so much more! The service was top-notch, with Jose being particularly attentive. The flavors in the pumpkin seed salsa were rich and went beautifully with the crispy pupusas. I also had the delicious tamales that rival any I've had before. It was great to see the owner mingling with guests - that personal touch sets this place apart. If you love authentic Salvadoran cuisine, this is definitely a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)
