   Food and drinks were very good, and our server was nice. However, it was clear to my group of "women of a certain age" that the host deliberately seated us in the "irrelevant" section in the back, behind the wall of shame, hidden away from the attractive young people. Now, don't get me wrong, we liked the table we were given because it was quieter and my hard-of-hearing friend could actually enjoy her conversation LOL. But next time, seat me with the A-listers and wait for ME to request a quieter table!

   What a great place! It was our first time there. It’s a short walk if you’re visiting the MoMA. All the food we ordered was excellent. Drunken Mussels app, Baja tacos, and chocolate lava cake for dessert. The kids menu offered grilled salmon, which our kiddo loves. The margarita’s were delicious. Our kiddo had a watermelon lemon-aid that comes with an ice pop. This was a bit hit. Our server Jorge was friendly and attentive. The ambience was comfortable and inviting. Lovely restaurant, go check it out!

   Loved the food & decor. Service was gracious & professional, albeit sometimes slow (we arrived @ 6:30 & didn’t pay our check until 9:30, which was much too long). Also, it was too loud—granted, it was a Friday night with two birthday celebration.

   Frida Midtown was great food, festive atmosphere, and fun without being too noisy for conversation. We were a party of six and ordered multiples of appetizers. Everyone loved the food and variety. The octopus (pulpo) was my favorite followed by the duck tacos! Fabulous.

    Food was incredible, however, freezing cold air blows on you throughout the entire meal. I asked the manager to address this issue. Manager said she turned it off and that she didn’t know what else to do. Nothing changed. I don’t think it’s much to ask the manager to learn how to control the air.

    Frida MidtownResponded on December 28, 2022Yes, we even offered to show you that the vents were OFF on our end. We the managers only know how to use the controls. Vents are connected through the roof which we do not have access to BUT we will ask the owner to train us for that as well.

    Very common food items ,,, it needs more creativity I’m not sure why the restaurant it’s named after Frida and offers Peruvian food.

    Frida MidtownResponded on December 12, 2022Thank you for your review, our restaurant is named after a person close to the owner. A lot of people are named Frida and they are not necessarily from a specific area.

    On arrival for our reserved table for four diners, we we told we had to finish our dinner in 1:45 minutes because the restaurant was busy and had to accommodate other guests. No notification, of this restriction on website.

    Frida MidtownResponded on December 12, 2022Dear Cliff, Thank you for your review. We are surprised you leaving this review based on a "time limit" notification more so because you STAYED for exactly 2 hours and 58 minutes. Our manager Michael notifies all guests as we have a commitment not just with you but with every single client that chooses to dine with us. A table of 4 for example has 2 hours unless you are late for it and do not notify us. Our time limit policy is on the "BEFORE YOU GO" section when you make a reservation with us.

    Nice energy and our server was quite nice. However, we found the food to be good but not amazing and our sense was pricing is way to high, especially for appetizers. Have to add that the Ribeye Frajita entree was quite good.

    Had lunch outside with a friend on probably the last weather-appropriate day for outside dining. The highlight was definitely the waitstaff who were delightful, particularly Jorge who was over-the-top friendly, attentive and accommodating. Also, the food was fresh and the preparation delicious. And the prices were reasonable given the quality. My friend I would both recommend it as the best overall experience we’ve had in the cuisine category in the area.

    Deafeningly loud. Food and drinks excellent. Kitchen too small? Need a backstage bar? It took 45 minutes from the time we sat down to have cocktails land on the table. And an hour for the appetizers ( ordered at same time as cocktails) to be served. The front of house staff was working SO hard and were uniformly warm and gracious bit for a meal where we had to cocktail, some guacamole, our entrees and no dessert to take 3 hours?

    Frida MidtownResponded on November 3, 2022Dear Brigid, Thank you for your review. We are sorry you had to wait. On the night you dined with us we unfortunately were short staffed, which almost never happens. We are so happy to read the rest of the staffed tried their best. We hope to have the opportunity to make it up to you in the future.

We ordered the guacamole, salsa and chips as our appetizer and we both ordered Birria beef as our entree. Delicious.
