Great spot! Had some delicious breakfast enchiladas. Best we’ve ever had.

The food was good. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The seating felt like being put in the aisle where people needed to walk though the place wasn't full.
And the price was astronomical for what we were served. But that might just be my rural Wisconsin showing. 4 people 116.00 including gratuity.
I recommend giving it a try.

Stepping into Frida’s is like entering a space where flavor and artistry collide, much like the colors and pain of her canvases. The menu, rich and varied, offers something to delight every palate—an inclusive celebration of food that mirrors the many layers of life itself.

My first encounter with the chilaquiles was nothing short of a masterpiece. The chips were bold, crisp, and confident, standing firm beneath the vibrant sauce. The chicken was tender, flavorful, and present, like a figure in one of Diego’s murals—undeniable, alive. But alas, my last visit told a different story, one where the passion seemed to falter under the weight of busy hands. My chilaquiles arrived disjointed, a plate of soggy whispers with no voice. The chips were shattered, their edges lost, and the chicken—a mere shadow of its former self—scattered in sadness.

Consistency, dear friends, is the soul of greatness. Without it, even the brightest colors dull.

Yet, the spirit of Frida’s cannot be dismissed. The walls speak in vibrant strokes of artistry, the furniture invites you to stay, and the staff welcomes you with the warmth of a Mexican sun. Frida’s has the heart of something truly magnificent, but like all beauty, it needs care to fully bloom.

When they find their rhythm, Frida’s will surely transform each plate into a canvas of perfection. Come for the potential, the flavors that sing when the stars align, and the kindness of their team. Let us hope they embrace the discipline that elevates art to immortality.

This restaurant has always been a family favorite, but our recent visit was disappointing. There was a mix-up with my order, and I was charged extra for something I shouldn’t have been charged for. I called twice to address the issue and was told both times that a manager would get back to me, but I still haven’t heard from anyone. It’s disheartening to experience such poor service from a place we’ve enjoyed for years. I hope this feedback encourages better communication and customer care in the future.

I thought the place was good and the food is good, nothing amazing, and the only thing that bothered us was the terrible attention and attitude of the hostess.
