Gloria's Restaurant

We have been going to Gloria's for over 3 decades, at least once monthly for breakfast and dinner, sadly, we have decided to take our business elsewhere. The quality of the food and the service has deteriorated substantially, I feel leadership has to take the responsibility for this, it reflects directly on everything. The atmosphere has completely changed, interaction with staff is not very pleasant, the smiling, friendly service has left the building.

My server was amazing!! The food was ok. I can’t believe they make us pay top dollar for ready crisp bacon. It was awful. My daughter didn’t even hers and she loves bacon so I ordered her a side of sausage too. My eggs, toast and home fries were good though. The owner is something else though. From what I gather, the daughter is the owner and the mom helps out. I overheard the mother getting mad at servers (the servers were amazing and working their butts off while she stood at the door). I spoke to a couple at the table beside us and they said their grand-daughter works there and the owner steals the servers’ tips and totally rips them off. They get the new servers to do all the “dirty work” for them and don’t share tips with them. If you’re an owner, you shouldn’t be getting tips! When the mother got mad at a server, the daughter walked by and they started talking in a different language. Both tables thought that was extremely rude. I probably won’t be going back after learning how they run their business and screw over their staff. I think the labour board should definitely have a look into this

Visited Gloria's Restaurant for breakfast with my family and can say I was thoroughly impressed. The restaurant was completely full, however our wait was only 5 minutes. All the staff seemed to be extremely friendly and attentive to customers. Great experience and will definitely be returning on my next breakfast outing.

The place was nice, clean and staff very friendly. Breakfast was ok but the bacon wasn't homemade

The vegan breakfast options were amazing. As were all the pies.

Recipe for the best breakfast; 1) Eggs Benny were perfect with poutine style home fries! 2) Waffles with Nutella, strawberries, and bananas. 3) Fruit plate ?

Staff are very friendly great portions and little to no wait for a table. The eggs benny was amazing as well as the ham and bacon breakfast poutine. You get more than enough for the price. We couldn't finish everything. Will definitely return in the future.

The reviews made us come visit this historic restaurant which was established in 1952. Family owned Canadian style food. The restaurant was full and the wait line was long which further fuelled my craving and now even more curious to try the food out. The main reason also was the fact that the reviews mentioned Vegan menu! A whole page for Vegan options! How wonderful is that ! It’s good to see the way people view and accept new ways in food and habits. Inclusion is most appealing. Sadly I was not impressed by the service or server Cathy was extremely unresponsive, excruciatingly slow and for each and every thing it took a long time. We spent more than 2 and half hours in ( eating food took max 20 minutes) many tables around got filled served and paid during our time in. Plus the only non vegan dish I ordered was veg skillet ( mixed veggies with house fries and scrambled eggs) was only fries and an chewy omelette cut in pieces ? It was loaded with fat grease and Carbs no soft fluffy Scrambled eggs no vegetables visible, just so disappointing. The poutine was good the gravy tasty and portion size huge. The vegan French toast could do with some more flavour and the whipped coconut cream was a bite size portion ( they could have been generous with it) the strawberries too was scarce. Overall I would vegans was better. They don’t serve any fresh juices which is a shame for any brunch place. Mimosas made with canned juice! This place is ideal for lots of grease Carbs and unhealthy food options. Felt like one of the unhealthy American diners. Would never go back Totally waste of my tummy space and health and money and time!
