Reviews
It was hard to choose a single dish with the great variety and numerous recommendations, but I settled on the Crunchy French Toast, which was a spectacular choice! The serving was very large, with four thick slices of brioche bread covered in a granola crust. The plating was gorgeous; the brioche was topped with fresh strawberries, more granola bits, lecherita (a type of sweetened condensed milk), warm raspberry coulis, powdered sugar, and the most velvety whipped cream. It was clear through both the presentation and taste that Frida’s puts plenty of care into their food. The French toast itself was buttery and not too sweet. The granola crust added a wonderful crunch and texture to the soft bread. The whipped cream and strawberries really brought the dish together, adding a creamy chill to the warm toast and natural, fruity sweetness.
I will no doubt be returning to try more items on their vast menu. Just observing the other tables’ huge plates inspired my future orders. The pancakes, crepes, and chilaquiles are all highly acclaimed, so it looks like I’ll have to frequent Frida’s for a long time!
Even though the restaurant had several patrons and seems to be popular with gringos, I think for these people….this is their only option. But it isn’t a good one.
I wanted to like this restaurant because it seems independent, but it felt dirty outside and inside the bathroom and feels like it needs a slight renovation just to make it feel “cleaner”.
During the evening, I had the WORST flatulence and I know it was directly related to the food. Was excessive all night long.
Also, my husbands chilaquiles plate with carnitas was $26! I feel like for that price I could have gone to a very high end restaurant for what I was charged.
