The location is great and outside seating was very nice. Good service. Although Happy Hour is advertised check before because although we arrived at 5pm the happy hour was not available. Also I had the grilled Baja tacos that were very good. My wife and friend has the Mazatlan Burrito and were disappointed. Lots of not fully grilled onions and only a few very small shrimp. My other friend ordered the Salmon salad and had to set aside much of the lettuce that was wilted. He politely mentioned this to the waiter. Also the prices reflect gourmet food and our expectations were perhaps over heightened.

I like the vegetarian options for guests at my table but the food could have been seasoned better. Everyone at my table had to add salt and pepper to their tacos and enchiladas. However, the soup had too much salt in it. The service staff was pleasant and accommodating, however, we won't be going there again because the food just wasn't up to par.

We visit Frida's when we are in Westwood. The guacamole is delicious, as well as, the chips. This time I had the salmon salad. It was delicious except that the lettuce had too much water and there was too much water at the bottom of the salad.

As Mexican restaurants go this one is disappointing . The food was barely ok. The combo plate, a soft taco, a crispy taco, and an enchilada, was not up to par. The enchilada was a folded over tortilla with hardly any filling. In a city of terrific Mexican food this one does not hold its own.

Food was ok, not great. I ordered 2 carnitas tacos w/ black bean for $15! Half of the meat on one of the tacos was a Glob of pork fat, not meat. When I showed the waiter, he just shrugged. Then my friend ordered a burrito, and asked for some pico de gallo...little did she know that the small little dish of salsa was $5!!!! Outrageous! When mentioned to the waiter he said that it is listed on the menu as a side dish, he should have mentioned it when she ordered it.

The food is excellent! The service was very basic, but fine. It is not inexpensive, but not ridiculous - $100 for two of us with no appetizers and one drink each. Again, the food is really good! Frida is a great location in Westwood Village with easy walking to theaters, shopping, and just across from the Hammer Museum. We will definitely be back.

I took some out of town guests to Frida in Westwood before we went to the Geffen Playhouse. I have never been treated so rudely by our waitress. They asked for queso and she looked at us like I was crazy and then threw some thing at us we said it wasn’t correct and she said she would take it away but we have to pay for it. We spoke to the manager who was nice enough to correct the situation but we were treated extremely rudely by the waitress. Overall I would never come back to this restaurant again. I do go to the one in Beverly Hills which has never been a problem and I will continue to go only to Beverly Hills.

We enjoyed a really good dinner on Saturday night. We went early (6PM) b/c we had a show after. I was surprised that it wasn't very crowded, maybe it picks up later in the eve. Our server Luis was great, attentive but not annoying. Food was delish. My husband had the enchilada suizas and I had tacos (pork, but not carnitas, forget the specific name) at the recommendation of Luis - both were fantastic. We had a couple margaritas too, and some guac to start. Overall good experience!

Frida's served my purpose as a central location for our group coming from different parts of SoCal to meet. Service was friendly. Food was OK. . just OK. Food and drink were average/unremarkable and I felt, overpriced for the quality served. On the positive side, the place was empty, even at lunch time on a Sunday. So it was a good environment for our gathering. I will add that upon leaving, we were shocked to see the "B" grade from the board of health displayed in their window.
