Excellent. Food delivered had some temperature problems but they fixed it right away and manager took care of our desserts Prices were more reasonable than expected. Seems less than their place at the Pearl Chairs were hard but they let me switch to a padded one, my back can't handle some of the seatings Service was great, food yummy.They should always not expect a long rectangle table of 5 to share chips and a small salsa finger bowl.

Updating here to say that the grilled menu remains on the menu and is just incredible. This time, my husband tried the Carne Asada, and I had the Shrimp and Chorizo. Both blew us away.This is officially the better La Gloria location. The menu is a hybrid of the Pearl La Gloria and the formerly amazing but now closed El Machito. The atmosphere is even better than the one on the Riverwalk, thanks to the very classy and beautiful folk art everywhere and the gorgeous live oak trees that they maintain on the property. The outdoor seating is so peaceful, but it's also gorgeous inside. The staff is so friendly and attentive. The coconut mojitos are my favorite! The fresh tortilla chips are a beautiful touch and not at all greasy. Great homemade tortillas. I can tell they use a special corn for the corn ones. Their salsa is understated but addictive. Very similar to food I've had in Mexico. High quality ingredients. I cannot say enough nice things!

Newer place for Chef Johnny and like the others it did not disappoint! The indoor seating is minimal but the outdoor area is large. Great place to have some drinks and let the kids enjoy the outdoors- weather permitting of course. The tacos were just perfect servings and the rice and beans were delicious and perfect portions! They were made to focus on the main dish and not just large servings of rice/beans like other Mexican restaurants. The service up front for seating can be a bit more friendly and warming but the wait staff made up for it. The drinks were tasty and refreshing!

We came for dinner on a Saturday evening. We were greeted and seated immediately. The staff is friendly. The ambiance is relaxing but a bit noisy inside, echoey. It is recommended to sit outdoors where there is live music and a beautiful setting. Complimentary house made chips & salsa arrived quickly. The food is pricey for being traditional tex-mex food, but it is tasty and well seasoned. Try their ceviche verde, its pretty good! ! Try their margaritas or their Jamaica Mescalito they are awesome!! Needless to say, we had a satisfactory experience, and I will be coming back again.Come check them out for yourself!!

Great service and wonderful charro beans as well as refried beans. There was a slight taste of bacon in the beans.Which was a delight. The enchiladas were also very good and tasted like they were made at home.The restaurant is decorated for the holiday in Mexico called Day of the Dead.so there's plenty of refprincess and metallic statues throughout the restaurant.Plenty of parking and and indoor as well as outdoor seating.

I visited La Gloria Brooks with my family recently, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. My son ordered tacos al pastor, but they were barely filled with meat, and the pineapple tasted old and oddly fishy. The lemonade was also stale, like it had been sitting around for too long.To make matters worse, our waitress misheard us and for my order brought out tacos asadas, which looked so unappetizing and I had to correct the order. However, we never received the corrected tacos al pastor. our whole party had finished eating and I was still waiting for my order, we just decided to cancel the order. Honestly, I'm glad we did, because my son didn't even finish his tacos (they were that bad). I tasted them, and the ingredients didn't seem fresh at all.The only saving grace? Their chips and salsa were great and the ambiance is beautiful. Unfortunately, that's not enough to make up for the rest of the experience. Definitely won't be returning. Sad to say that Chef Johnny Hernandez is valuing quantity of restaurants over quality.

I forgot to take a picture of everything because I dug right in! As with the Pearl location the food is yummy and the drinks are delicious. Unlike the Pearl location, this one has plenty of free parking. There's a lot more of Chefs Johnnys style art at this location providing more photo ops. Manager came by our table and explained they are expanding this location to include and outdoor grill. El Machito (once at the quarry) is making a comeback at the Brooks location.

Date night is always a good night, but when you come here, expect a nice experienceBeautiful evening allowed us to sit outside. Our server was AMAZING. Wanting to try something new, the time our server used to explain the menu was greatly appreciated. Tacos Al Pastor, man, if it was a bit less dry, it would be magic! The arroz del día and charro beans were perfect. They did not overdo it with salt and we didn't need to add some. Had the shrimp cocktail that came with crackers and hot sauce. Those who put salt in their food before trying: try this before putting hot sauce because it has a kick! Spoke to, the manager who mention that the recipe comes from Vera Cruz. Shrimp cocktail with a nice kick! Yum Can't wait for next time

Drinks were on point. Ordered the House margarita, Paloma and cantarito which were all great. Our bartender was very attentive. This place has a great vibe.
