    The food and atmosphere at Frida is second to done. The host and bartender service is also some of the best in this area.

    All of the food and margaritas were very good. Our waiter Claudio was terrific. My only issue was that the music was ridiculously loud , so it was impossible to hear your conversations or the wait staff.

    Our experience at Frida was fantastic. The reservation process was simple on OpenTable, and we spent no time waiting to be seated. Although we had to wait a little for anyone to come visit our table, the hostess picked up on it and took care of us right away. She checked in repeatedly to make sure we had everything we needed. Even sitting next to the bar and front door, we never felt overwhelmed with noise or a crowd. The drinks were outstanding. The Rivera was a smoky cloud of yum, the Empress fit for a queen, and the Aji Amarillo Mezcalita went down warm and smooth. Bottles of Jarrito’s pineapple for the non-drinkers rounded off our drink order. The food truly amazing. The esquites were creamy and spicy, the guac chunky and so easy to devour. If you enjoy ramen, their Birria ramen cannot be missed. I cannot skip fish tacos if they are on the menu, and they were among the best ever. My wife and daughter devoured their birria tacos, and my picky teenager proudly exclaimed as he scraped the bottom of his Lomo Saltado, “and I even ate the vegetables!” Alas, we were too full for dessert, that’s for our next visit!

    Depends on who is going . But too noisy, not very good service and the food was not much to write home about.
