Recent Reviews
Frida’s restaurant is one of my favorite places in town. Their smoothies literally save my life, always fresh ingredients and a clean environment. The food bar with beef stew, chicken, rice and beans etc is phenomenal, and great when you’re in a pinch and need a quick delicious meal. They have essentials as well, it really can be a one stop shop. I come here at least once a week for my smoothie, they know my order by heart lol. I highly recommend stopping here!!

Fridas looks small and simple from the outside, but inside is spacious and the food and service are great. Everything they served was perfect but my favorite was the heuvos rancheros.

I'm so glad I tried this spot out! It's exactly what I was craving - authentic Mexican flavor that hits the spot! The tamales were a highlight, and I loved trying all the different varieties. And that green salsa? Chef's kiss, indeed! The service was top-notch, too - everyone was sweet, helpful, and made me feel right at home. I'm already planning my next visit and can't wait to recommend this gem to friends and family! 💞
