This place updated and expanded in September 2023. The pictures are of the restaurant and menu as of 12/23/23. (Any pictures of a small bright yellow space with blackboard menus and an upright bakery cabinet are of the pre-renovation/expansion.) Honestly, I miss the old cozy smaller hole-in-the-wall version where everyone had to squeeze by when it was (often) busy. It used to feel like a locals-only authentic Mexican place, but now it feels gentrified and it seemed like 2-3:1 of tourists:locals when we were there. I’m glad the business is doing well of course, but it feels like the locals lost a special hidden gem we had to ourselves away from the hoards of tourists. Their food used to be one of the absolute best in town and it’s still really good, but seems like it slipped a bit while also increasing in price. The menu is way bigger now which could be part of why, and also adds to how long it takes for everything now. They also now have servers doing table-side ordering and it seemed like (as of Dec. ‘23) they were still getting the hang of it, vs. the quick counter service they did before. I hope they settle back in, streamline the menu to a simpler list of their strong suits, maybe go back to counter service, and bring back some bright color again.

Gloria's Bakery is a must try. The service is phenomenal, and the food is great. The restaurant is small and quaint. Very well kept. The pan dulce is delicious. They have conchas, rebanadas, cerditos, empanadas, tres leches, and flan. You will not be disappointed. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This place was awesome in every aspect. First, the staff was very warm and welcoming. She took the time to explain what the business was all about and gave excellent menu suggestions. The food was great. I was there at the breakfast meal period but opted for the California burrito, enchilada style. The burrito was huge and very tasty. The restaurant was clean and fresh. There is nothing stopping me from visiting Glorias again soon! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes California Burrito

We had take out. Whenever people ask for best Mexican food in Flagstaff, I now know the answer! We had the spicy meatball soup and the broth is next level awesome. The few bites I had of my traditional al pastor burrito tasted like I got it from a street vendor in Mexico. So good, so good.

No manches! This is a hidden gem in Flagstaff! This place exceeded my expectations. As a Mexican-American is hard to find a place that serves authentic homemade Mexican food. So when I came in here my expectations were not high. Well, they did it! From the moment you arrive you know the place is going to be authentic because of where it is located. Anywhere there is money wires to Latin America, you’ll find great Mexican food nearby 😂 I went inside only to be greeted by smiling staff and the smell of freshly baked Mexican sweet bread. The menu is easy to read. Starting on the left side with breakfast options all the way to afternoon meals and, of course, Mexican snacks for that late afternoon craving. Now, let’s get down to the meal. I was convenient met at my table with my coffee, cream and sugar. In no more than 4 minutes my Chilaquiles plate was brought to my table…and oh boy! The first bite took me straight to my Grandma’s home in seconds! An explosion of flavor. As a matter of fact, I didn’t expect to have a side of arrachera (steak) with my meal! I combined my chilaquiles with a portion of over medium eggs and the arrachera, and yum! So good! To close up the deal I got me a concha de chocolate to combine with hot coffee…man, they did it! Great atmosphere. People of all types came in: construction workers, parents with kids, cleaning ladies, and some of our native-American friends. What a great spot to enjoy great food and meet great people. I give it a 5 of 5. By the way, the place It! very clean 😉 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Wonderful service. This place is obviously very popular with locals. We stopped here on our way to New Mexico. I had a chicken burrito and my wife had a vegetarian torta. Both were excellent. We had a flan to finish up dinner. The place closes early (6 PM).

A wonderful and delicious local spot. I feel like donut places have given up on cream filling, but Gloria is still doing it and it is delicious! Not to mention the delicious breakfast burritos. Gloria’s is a 10/10 local breakfast/ brunch joint; don’t miss out! Service Take out Meal type Breakfast Price per person $10–20

Food is so delicious! Love the sweet bread as well. The remodel is amazing, did not reconize the place when I walked in. Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
Place was really small, but very well maintained, even though from the outside it may look a bit dusty & old. Food was amazing, & authentic! I will say though that the torta didn’t have enough meat & I also think that it’s very rare to eat a good mole, but my friend surprisingly liked his! The agua de fresa, OMG i totally loved it, couldn’t have enough of it, i didn’t even want to finish it. The cortadillos were very moist & tasted exactly how i remember the cortadillos i used to eat back home! It’s my favorite pan dulce. Totally recommend this place no doubt, hopefully am able to come here again to get more of this delicious food Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20
