by Berry Brim on After returning from our trip to Los Angeles, my wife and I were eager to try the new Gloria's, at Austin's Domain shopping center. In particular, we were interested to see if it bore any relation to LA's famous Salvadoran restaurant of the same name. The place was quite busy when we arrived, so we waited about 20 minutes before being escorted to a cozy table-for-two. The host and hostess were very cordial and professional, and this location was obviously a fancier version of the original Gloria's - if there is indeed any relationship at all between the two. LA's Gloria's is a 20-year-old building with the simple kind of interior, much like Austin's many Mexican restaurants and their few Salvadoran cousins. The original Gloria's is an authentic, one-woman-operation kind of place, with a simple, streamlined operation that produces the kind of food enjoyed by the average, everyday people of Gloria's native El Salvador. The Domain's version of Gloria's, however, is lavish by comparison - fine carpet, curtained walls, lovely furniture, beautiful lighting, and a carefully balanced sound system playing characteristic Latin music. With a full bar and a fun-loving happy-hour crowd, this Gloria's bears very little resemblance to the LA original. In reality, the only similarity between the two appears to be the menu items. Carne Abobada and Suppe de siete Mares (Seven Seas Soup) are the premier specialties of LA's Gloria's, and, sure enough, they are found on the menu here at The Domain. Authentic Papusas and tamales are also a draw at both restaurants, but our wonderful waiter, Alex, insisted that there was no relationship between the two restaurants. Though the similarity in menus is uncanny, perhaps he was correct - nothing else is the same. Alex served us promptly and professionally. He is one of the rare waiters who just know when to appear at your table. His timing was impeccable and sometimes he already knew what we needed before we asked. Surely Gloria's is lucky to have him there. Our papusas and tamales were fresh and delicious, and the Mojito Cubano was perfect. Everywhere we go, we request our mojitos to be made without syrup - only the rum, mint, fresh lime juice, club soda, and ice - and Gloria's handled our request most gracefully and served a perfect drink. We couldn't go to Gloria's without ordering the Carne Adobada and the Suppe de siete Mares. Both were finely-made and delicious, but the soup included a small lobster tail, sliced long-wise, and it was difficult to dig the meat out of the shell. Nonetheless, we enjoyed great food and exemplary service in a pleasant atmosphere, so you can expect that we will return to sample their other offerings. I hope you get an opportunity to experience Gloria's at The Domain.
by Carmine Labier on WARNING REVIEW RATED R OMG lol how did I ever end up here to be able to give The Clermont a review. Somehow, my friends talked me into going to their "last" night in business which wasn't really true. However, I abide and I can't decide if it was the best night of my life or by far the worst. I have to review this place because it's a beverage place so I have a reason to lol. As I walk into the entrance of The Clermont, I looked towards the bar to see the best entry to get a drink quickly as it was really crowded and it was only a Tuesday night. However, to my disgust, there was a naked pot bellied woman on stage dancing with her legs wide apart. PUKE It was rather interesting because they had karaoke and adult entertainment (is that the correct choice of word?) going on at the same time. I didn't get a chance to get a drink when my friend ended up bringing me a kamikaze shot with a can of PBR lol. And so the night starts. PBR?!?!!? Oh well, it started to do its job. As I looked around, the crowd was interesting. There were all types of people there but the worst of all were the old and novelty strippers walking around flaunting their extra amount of cellulite. PUKE The night continued with me drinking gourmet PBRs out of a can when we finally got a table that sat all of us. After we sat down, we started talking to each other when some guy approached me and asked me if I had a f*cking problem. HAHAHAHA, too bad they didn't have glass bottled beers (I'm not implying anything). Later on that night, one of his buddies tried to steal one of my friend's purse. We got it back and he said, "my bad" lol but we weren't there to get into a fight. What a crowd. So going on, my friends that I hadn't seen in months decided that it would be funny to buy me a lap dance from the infamous can crushing breast Blondie. OMG. I didn't even realize they did it until it was too late. I tried to pull a ninja move to run away but she was bigger than me and I was quickly knocked back down in my chair. Here is where I began to poop my pants because if you haven't met Blondie, she's this big scary (pardon me) black woman with bleach blonde hair and a lot of extra weight. Before she begins, she takes her towel/shirt/bra/whatever it was and lifted her breast and wiped off the sweat. PUKE I didn't know what to expect so I was scurred. She comes up with one breast in each hand and just starts to beat the crap out of me with them. Thank GOD I managed to keep her off my lap. After a few seconds of being hit by golf balls filled breast I told her to move onto one of my friends and she starts beating on him and of course I had her beat the guy who bought me the "dance" as well. After she was done crushing our faces with her rocks she picks up an empty beer can and crushes it with her breasts and autographs it for me. I didn't know if it was safe to touch or not but I kept it. After about five minutes of being face crushed, all of our faces started to itch and burn. I think we caught the herpasiphilidagonerrialaps from her. My face continued to burn the next day! Anyway, we stayed there until about 4 in the morning. When I got home, I used a whole bottle of AXE soap to try to rid myself of the smell with no success. Okay, I don't even see where I am going with this review. But I gave this place 3 stars because it gives me really fun memories but at the same time I now have nightmares. It is a must go! lol http://twitter.com/10_k
by Christine M. on Ha...ha... It's a joke, right? I went on a Saturday night, and there was a $10 cover. For what? A top-notch DJ, I'm told. Turns out, I could well have been that "top-notch" DJ if I found some crappy Kanye West CDs and jammed them into a stereo.
