In spite of a majority of foreign patronage, this was an enjoyable meal with great food. The waiter created a 'special order' with no problem. More

I don't like Mexican food and I have lived in Mexico for 16 months. So when my partner accepted the 2 for 1 flyer from the young man in the wheelchair at the door to Fridas I wasn't interested. However, he really wanted to go and so I thought, "it's only one meal." Was I ever wrong! It was Wednesday... More

We LOVE Fridas Mexican Restaurant and Bar. I have been there several times and have also been pleased with my meal. If you are in the mood for Mexican food, this is the place to go. Plus, it is right next door to the Nim Po't. More

After 16 years I keep coming back to Fridas! I love the new plates on the menu like the Tangerine Chicken and the Pechugas Tia Delia... however you must not leave town without trying the Nachos Fidas and Nachos Mixtos! The ambience of the place is what I love the best is like friends are always waiting for you there!!!!! More

Fredas has a great location, pretty good food, and a nice collection of Mexican decor. It is a nice little place to take a break from shopping at the next door Nim-Pot. Check the 2 / 1 daily specials for bargain food that is pretty darn good. They attually understand that a place of nachos is more that stale corn... More

we came here for a light dinner and drinks and to enjoy the atmosphere. The crowd was highly varied, but it was a cool vibe. Staff was attentive and I really enjoyed my margarita. Food was pretty good, too. Overall, we liked the place and its a good spot for some nightlife. More
