Nestled on Avenue 50 in Highland Park, Gloria’s Cuisine LA is a heartfelt homage to Southern Mexican flavors, brought to life by founders Marco and Alejandro. Hailing from Chiapas, Marco named the restaurant in honor of his mother, Gloria Hernández, infusing the space with familial warmth and tradition. Since opening in 2016, Gloria’s has become a beloved neighborhood staple, celebrated for its elevated Latin recipes and American classics.
The menu is a vibrant tapestry of California's bounty and Southern Mexico's rich culinary heritage. Signature dishes like barbacoa tacos, enchiladas suizas, and the Gloria’s burger showcase the kitchen's commitment to comfort and superior execution. Each plate tells a story, inviting diners into a world where tradition meets innovation.

Why We Love Gloria’s
At Civil, we are honored to be part of Gloria’s curated beverage program. Their dedication to quality is evident in every cup, from our La Unión MX Rosita coffee to their house-made café de olla. A standout is Gloria’s Matcha Iced Latte, crafted with our ceremonial grade matcha from Kagoshima, Japan, oat milk, and a house-made syrup infused with vanilla, anise, and a dash of powdered clove
Gloria’s is more than a restaurant; it's a community hub where every detail—from the food to the drinks—reflects a deep-seated love for culture, family, and hospitality. We're proud to collaborate with a team that shares our values and passion for excellence.
