For over ten years, Cafe Frida has been pleasing patrons of this Upper West Side establishment where the food is as good as the decor, inspired by the art of Frida Kahlo. Bring friends along to enjoy a full evening. Read Full Editorial
My Review by matt via GrubHub on 6/30/2014
very good food. very authentic
Rip off!!! by Trio T via Insider Pages on 9/18/2012
The dishonest use of SPECIAL OF THE DAY would have made Frida Kahlo`s unibrow split in two and slap the owner in the mouth. The waiter neglected to mention some important information about the SPECIAL pitcher of blood orange margarita.…
Real Mexican by UWSgirl via Citysearch on 9/14/2010
As a little girl I lived in Mexico for a few years and felt in love the food and the culture.
When I found Cafe Frida for the first time, it just took me back to those days, from the decor, the equipales (traditional chair style from…
Fit Right In at Fridas by Diana N via Insider Pages on 3/14/2010
This is my favorite neighborhood hangout when I'm working in the City. The guacamole alone is worth the price of admission. They make the best margaritas. Come for Brunch on Sunday. It's so much more than tacos and frijoles.
Not Mexican at all by CSMobileUser4 via Citysearch on 3/9/2009
I been there a couple of times, both times I thought the menu is over priced and the portion are to small , I would recomended to anyone and the food is more like texmex than traditional mexican
Best guacamole ever by Jessica W via Insider Pages on 7/24/2008
This place has the best guacamole in the city. They make it tableside so you can choose which ingredients to leave out (like cilantro--which I hate), and also hot hot you want it. They mix it all up in a large stone bowl which you can…
Some of the best Mexican in the city and great cocktails! by jsp424 via Citysearch on 4/28/2008
I went to Cafe Frida on Saturday with some friends for some quick drinks. I decided try try the sangria (because it's my favorite) and ended up staying for dinner! We figured if the drinks were great so must be the food. The salsas were…
Museum and good food makes a great time by agapitog via Citysearch on 4/11/2008
Went to the American Museum of Natural History and wanted to have brunch first. This place was a wonderful find. Ordered the guacamole, the fajitas with chicken and steak, the quesadillas with shrimp, and maduros. VERY flavorful and…
great food by rey m via Insider Pages on 3/29/2008
Great food and a great atmosphere, what more can you ask for. If thats not enough, they have a courtious and friendly waitstaff and the prices are reasonable. You will have a great time.
Great Mexican Food! by belle654 via Citysearch on 6/20/2007
Doesn't look like a mexican restaurant from the outside, but inside the decor is entirely mexican. Great guacamole and steak fajitas!
Best Birthday Celebration ever! by restauranthopper2 via Citysearch on 5/9/2007
My 3 close friends and I wandered in to Cafe Frida the other night. We hadn't originally planned on going there but the restaurant we wanted to try out was closed for a private event. The staff were all very friendly and the place was…
Ruse hostess by vivital via Citysearch on 3/18/2007
We were around the area and decided to walk-in after hearing that the food had improved to justify the price after a disappointing visit a few years back. It took a good five minutes to be seated even though there were three open tables…
Great food/service. Increase side portions just a bit to be really excellent by noids via Citysearch on 3/17/2007
Went for Friday night dinner. Had reservations and were seated promptly, though even without reservations I don't think the wait would have been more than 10 minutes. The waiter came by quickly with the menus and water (glancing at other…
Great Creative Food by nycskier via Citysearch on 2/26/2007
My wife and I stopped at Cafe Frida for Sunday brunch on a February weekend. We were promptly seated and found an imaginative menu in front of us. Most of the menu items were above the standard "Mexican" fare. The food was great- rich…
Mediocre food, terrible service, poor value by bdc56 via Citysearch on 1/12/2007
A friend and I dined at Cafe Frida on a Thursday night. I arrived early and ordered a margharita at the bar, tried to pay with my credit card but the bartender asked, "sorry sir, do you have any cash? i would prefer it." Nice honest…
Unexpectedly good service by zippity_doodah via Citysearch on 10/27/2006
I read all the reviews and basically expected the waiters and waitresses to beat me up when I entered the restaurant, but the service was actually fabulous. Perhaps the restaurant is making a concerted effort to improve or I just caught…
really good food, questionable service by jsac via Citysearch on 8/12/2006
This spot is an old reliable for my wife and I since we live a block away. It's always crowded here and service is average at best. The food however is very good and ambiance is nice. Definately worth trying.
Guarenteed Horrible Service by jtribs via Citysearch on 6/4/2006
Have been twice (not by choice) and both experiences were extremely negative. First exposure was a Friday night party of 5. Hostess immediately interrogated us about our dinner plans/expectations for dining. As soon as we sit down they are…
GREAT despite a few minor hiccups by denpq via Citysearch on 1/9/2006
I loved this place and would go back again. The food was deliciously fresh. The decor was warm and fun. I'm sorry I didn't get the sangria...it looked fabulous. This would be a great restaurant to go to with a group of friends. It's…
Great Ambiance- and that's pretty much it. by poisoniveeaac via Citysearch on 10/21/2005
They brought my mother a chicken enchiladas instead of cheese and then it took her 10 minutes to explain what the error was to the waiter and bus boy who then finally had to tell the manager who was also confused and my mother is fluent in…
