Casa Las Glorias - Mexican restaurant in Cedar Rapids - 2245 Blairs Ferry Rd NE, USA

The CR area is filled with Mexican restaurants yet its hard to find a good one. Hate giving bad reviews but this is just my honest opinion...People here seemed friendly but as we were sitting down our server came over and asked us what we wanted to drink, I haven't even touched a menu at this point my butt barley hit the seat. The chips were okay the salsa lacked a lot of flavor. Got a $16 "jumbo" margarita which truthfully wasn't that big but seemed to be never ending because it wasn't very good. The menu had interesting items on it a lot of them not being authentic Mexican food what so ever. We ended up just ordering cheese dip and leaving because there wasn't a lot of options on the menu and none of that sounded good. Our server never came back to fill up our chips or even finish checking us out. If you like this place thats great if you are craving actual Mexican food I'd recommend going else where.

Nice place, enjoyed the patio and great server. Food was fine American Mexican kind of food. Seems like more of a happy hour margaritas than a place I would want to have a full meal. Picture of nachos and side of guacamole. Banana and orange margaritas.

Went to this place for the first time about a month ago after moving here last spring. First thing I noticed was all the flies everywhere. How does your restaurant have flies in the middle of December? I can only imagine how filthy the kitchen must be for that to happen. The food quality was mediocre at best, but the icing on the flan was the "convenience charge" on my credit card. Really, you're going to charge a fee to use my credit card instead of putting a crowbar in your wallet and paying for the annual membership yourself? My understanding is this is part of a family of restaurants in the area, and I won't be going to any of them if they're anything like this one.

I chose Las Glorias as our pre-movie dinner spot after seeing a picture of the enchilada sauce, and I’m sure glad I did. Being from California, I’m not the biggest fan of tomato-heavy enchilada sauces — but chile was the star here. Didn’t realize how constant the craving for this style of sauce has been until I took that first bite. Utterly delightful. Rice was flavorful and just the right consistency (though the addition of peas and carrots still throws me off). Refried beans were standard (could’ve been mashed a bit more but to each their own). Guac and salsa were lovely and fresh. Taco was tasty, but the shell was subpar (would’ve preferred an actual corn tortilla). The place was super busy on a Saturday night but the young staff were very fast and attentive. Also wheelchair accessible! Stopping in was definitely worth missing the first half of our movie. I’ll be back again and again.

5 stars for the excellent service, 3.5 starts for the food. The enchilada and quesadilla were decent, but the Chile relleno left a lot to be desired. The sauce was too red and reminiscent of Italian food with the flavors. Chips were warm and salsa very tomatoey. The place was vibrant and super nice environment with lots of repeat, local customers.the prices were great!

Strong drinks and great food! My margarita was too strong for me, but that's not a bad thing - my husband thought it was perfect! Love that the combination platter options let you pick and choose between a lot of things...everything I've tried here is yummy and super fairly priced. I also appreciate that the staff here are really prompt and friendly!

Very friendly and prompt service. Salsa is good, perfect amount of heat. There were 4 adults and 1 child, our party went for lunch. Kids menu was nice size. I got the green pork, my wife got Rio Grande. We got our food very promptly. It was very hot and delicious. My pork was tender, and my wife's beef was very tender to. I forgot to ask for corn shells but that wouldn't change anything. The only down side is their selection of hot sauces are kind of minimal. I would also like to see a bigger selection of items with chorizo. Thank you for a great lunch, I will be back.

It’s a great restaurant for your typical Mexican or Tex mex food. The salsa is awesome! Food is very good and the steak is tender and juicy.
