Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Feels very authentic with nice decor and good staff. Special thanks to waiter named Juan who is very friendly and recommended some dishes to us. It was a pleasure to eat here. Place worth visiting :) On the picture food enough for two girls ;) Croquetas with spinach and fish were especially good"
"We went to this place for lunch 11:30, but the daily menu was not offered, they only offer daily set menu after 1pm. We went back after 1pm, ordered two lunch from the set menu. It tasted very good, but the portion is not big. This place got very busy around 2pm, a lot of locals come here for lunch."
"Clearly a bit of an institution in Córdoba. Great place, very friendly, lovely decor and feel. Good value menu del dia. Good portions, very fresh and tasty. Excellent habas con Jamón plus carrillada. Desserts a bit bland and tinto con casera very watery but would definitely return."
"We found this place last minute while looking for something to eat and drink right in the middle of siesta time. It’s a charming bar with a long-standing feel and a surprisingly varied menu. We tried the salmorejo, fried anchovies, and grilled squid, all were delicious. The staff doesn’t speak much English, but communication wasn’t an issue, and they do have an English menu available. A great find for an authentic bite!"
"Great experience of eating nice food in a company of the local’s chef, who decided to help himself as well one table next to me. Very civilised and friendly place."
"We stumbled across la Gloria hoping to get some traditional food, without realising it was a historical legendary place within Cordoba. After looking at the decorations it sparked curiosity and interest! The owner was friends with the bull fighting champion of 1967 and passed on his positions to the owner of the restaurant and now it’s a monument to his success. The food and service was brilliant although it was very busy we were looked after and enjoyed our meal and wine."
"We just walked in to ask if they have any vegetarian food. One of the staff members assured they would give us veg food, so we decided to try. Sangria was amazing. One of the best. Gaspachoand batata brave were very flavoursome. But the real here was Fried aubergine with honey. It was out of this world. Never imagined aubergine this way... Blown away. Amazing chef and staff. Don't miss out."
"Great to find somewhere authentic and decent to eat packed with locals at lunchtime. I had the €11.50 lunch special starting with a delicious salmorejo soup."
