We stumbled on this place by accident and so glad we did. Has all the Mexican vibes and love the salsa music that was playing in the background. The service was amazing! The hostess got us seated quickly & our server gave us all the best recommendations. We're from south Florida so we have Mexican food often, and this really impressed us! The cabrones tacos sampler, is a meat lovers dream, the flavor combinations were out of this world. The fajitas were sizzling and fresh, the meat and veggies were packed with flavor. We will definitely be back to try more read more

I have been on a very long search for authentic street tacos and I have finally found the one. The al pastor street tacos that I ordered were delicious and they were only $4/each. I got three and I was full by the first taco, which is probably because I ate so much guacamole and chips! If you come here, which you totally should, try the guacamole and the street tacos. I only tried the al pastor, but I am sure everything tastes divine. I will be going back a lot so I will update the review accordingly. Our waitress' name was Kata (nickname for Katalina). The service she provided was fantastic and she also spoke Spanish which I loved. I felt like I was back home speaking with my own family. The ambiance was amazing as well. They have a beautiful mural of Frida Khalo which is perfect for photos -- it's so beautiful! The spot is quiet when I went today around 1500 (3pm). I loved it that way because that's what I prefer, but if you're into live music and more people then they have this option for you as well. I believe they have live music every Friday of the month. It's live mariachi band and you get to enjoy some yummy drinks and of course the delicious food. I am literally so crazy about these tacos -- it's the best I've had in this area all together. read more

Decided since weather was questionable we went to Fridas since the first time we went we really enjoyed. Wrong decision for us. Started with our server Rina R. We ordered a pitcher of margaritas and queso dip. Our queso came out quickly but not the drinks, when she did bring out our drinks she poured my husband's fine then mine she spilled all over the table then laughed and left our table, didn't wipe up the mess she made or replace what she spilled. Luckily I had a paper towel in my bag and I cleaned the table. After half hour went by she came out to take our order, my husband ordered carne asada "Rare" with corn tortillas, I ordered 2 chicken Tinga Mexican street tacos. While waiting for our dinner my husband was scooping a tortilla in the queso as I spotted a long black hair in the queso, needless to say we did eat anymore queso. Our food came out my husband had no corn tortillas as he had ordered, she laughed again at him and said I'll get them. His steak was well done not rare! My taco I took a bite out of and I felt a Hair!!! Really??? I have never had this happen to me before and tonight twice! I was so disgusted and couldn't eat my food!! Rina our server just thinks it so funny and laughed again!! Margaritas are good they get the 2*. Our server gets a -1! So disappointing and disgusting!! read more

OH MY LORD, We had the best time here. I'm not into Mexican cuisine but the dishes we ordered were Amazing. Our server RINA was a delight, experienced & helpful with my order. No matter how many times I go to a Mexican restaurant, I cannot figure out what the dishes are, UGGH I have an app from "allevents" & they put Frida's an an event. The event was a MARIACHI BAND This intrigued me so, I made a reservation (YES, reservations are back) YAYYY! at least in Florida they are. I booked late so we were the last ones to book GOOD THING! The place was PACKED. (This restaurant is always full with a "waiting list") Frida's is a large restaurant with booths, tables, bar & my favorite area on the veranda which is hard to get in. I don't know if & when the offer this was 10% off appetizers. The prices were also inexpensive, $10-$20 (Of course a little higher for seafood specials BUT, they were no higher than $25) Now, back to the *MARIACHI BAND* It was AWESOME!!! They went table to table. They even asked if you wanted to request a song. SORRY, my pictures & we started to eat before I remembered to take pictures they do NOT do the place justice (my husband's head was in the way) but, hopefully you can enjoy the the pictures ALSO, the gentleman singing had an AMAZING voice. They were even funny asking questions. If & when you go or they have this "EVENT" again, DO NOT pass it up. We TIPPED the band (of course our server also) read more

Strange menu. My chicken enchiladas were good. Hubby had the taco sampler and didn't like it esp the vegetarian one. I'd rather go to fresh guacamole or Anejo's. Won't go back. read more

Food was lacking we noticed the ground beef had the texture of canned meat and the sauce was definitely sloppy joe with some lime juice while edible and not bad ....it wasn't good authentic eats. Service was fantastic I was great full for our friendly and attentive waitress who made sure she kept our drinks full and passed by the table twice to make sure we were all set. The style of the restaurant is nice I just wish the food lived up to expectations (you can do better at home ) read more

Been by this place many times, but never stopped. What a mistake! Plenty of parking in the back. We were greeted promptly, taken to our table. Nicely decorated place with Mexican music playing, but not too loud. Our order was taken, and we received a basket of chips and some freshly made salsa. The chips were warm, and very flavorful. Our food came in a reasonable amount of time. I had the enchilada lunch special. The enchilada was loaded with chicken that had lots of flavor. It came with rice and beans, and the homemade beans were some of the best I've ever had. My wife had the Taco Salad, and it also was loaded with chicken. Our server checked back a couple of times to see if everything was OK. Do yourself a favor and eat here some time. read more

Cute place, love the modern Mexican vibe. The food was beautifully presented and that is about where the positives end. The fajitas were very greasy and did not have much flavor at all. The oil made the peppers and onions soggy. The rice was very dry and kind of crunchy, guacamole was dark and also not much flavor. The taco cones my friend ordered were also greasy but it was the hair baked into the shell that was the real low! Drinks were not refilled and overall service was lacking. We were all disappointed. Redeeming factor: frozen popsicle case on your way out! Could be a great place, need to work in food prep. read more

The birria tacos were absolutely delicious! Sometimes birria seasoning can be overwhelming or too salty but they got it just right. It truly tasted homemade. The meat was tender and not greasy or fatty. The consommé dip was perfect but don't sleep on the green sauce, it was the perfect kick to each bite! Wish I got a picture but we were too hungry to wait! read more

Thought this would be a typical Tex mex place, but it was so much more! Yes they have tacos, churns o and burritos, but they also have a fun Caribbean twists.

Who knew there was just excellent Mexican in Daytona (Ormond)? Ok, I did as I love Mexican and have been to a number of different places, each good in their own way. This one is solid as the menu has a vast assortment of goodies. It appears to be simply, but there's a lot of diversity. I decided to try the Camarones Borachos (Drunken Shrimp which was my nickname in High School) and it was a spicy dish with a nice amount of shrimp, a brown sauce full of flavor and a boatload of rice. I also tried a chalupa with fried avocado which was a complete disaster (overcooked, hard, and dry) so be warned. They have some beautiful murals on the walls and it's a good size inside despite looking small on the outside. Other diner's had other items and everyone enjoyed their meals. Look closely at the menu as you can mix and match and choose different proteins (chicken, steak, veggies, etc.) and different vessels (taco, chalupa, burrito, etc.) to create a seemingly endless amount of combinations. It's far away from the speedway, but close to the northern beaches on Rt 40 (not far from the bridge). It's a good choice if you want to avoid the crowds, especially at 3p in the afternoon, which is when many end up leaving the beaches and crowd the other areas. read more

First tim e dining at Frida's today and I was definitely impressed. We came during non-peak hours so it was quiet with only a few tables occupied. My first impression was that it was really beautifully decorated with colorful murals and furniture. It was bright, clean and inviting. We were seated quickly and began to check out the menu. What an awesome variety of options. I liked that they offer the standard fare like enchiladas, burritos, and fajitas; while also throwing in some interesting options like grilled cactus and two different styles of tamales. Tortas and zinchronizados, pozoles and more! Their cocktail menu is definitely something I will be back for since I wasn't in a drinking mood today. I was really hungry and since they offered the tamales and Chile rellenos as more "a la carte" I just decided to get one of each. And rice and beans. And maduros. YOLO, right? LOL I figured they'd put at least the tamales on one plate or maybe they'd all fit on one large plate. But no, they each came on separate dishes and I couldn't help but laugh when my meal spanned half the table making me look like a a crazy woman because they were all quite large. At least I have lots of leftovers :) I thought the food itself was pretty good. The Oaxacan tamale was a clear victor in the battle of the tamales as the Mexican style one with chicken was more typical, run of the mill while the Oaxacan style with pork was larger, moister and soooo full of pork. Yum, yum, yum! My son ordered a chicken sandwich, but being a kid with pretty boring taste he ordered it plain without all the good toppings. They accidentally sent it out with additional toppings which they quickly fixed, but I'm betting it would have been really good with the sauce I saw on it and the rest of what normally comes on it. We visit family in the area occasionally so this will definitely be on my list for next time. We love Mexican food and this place really stood out with their menu. The service was excellent as well. read more

We decided to try the new Fridas Mexican restaurant in longwood used to be the old Habaneros. Opened a few months ago and we've been wanting to try it, but it's been busy each time we ride by. On Saturday after a day of shopping around 4pm we noticed it was not busy at all, so we decided it was prefect time for us. This place was beautifully renovated. They have beautiful Christmas decorations, a huge Christmas tree right in the middle of the dining floor, it was beautiful!! We sat at the bar, they have 2 big screen tvs, in time for some football, which was great. We really enjoyed, nice bar selection. The food and the service was, great. 5 star. I definitely recommend and we will be back to FRIDAS Mexican restaurant. Stop by if you're in the area! Hopefully it won't be to busy, since is new gets pretty busy around dinner time. ENJOY read more

Under the circumstances of caution and safety in dining out, this place was friendly, accommodating, and polite. Menu offered variety and useful information about the selections. Ample outside tables, waitstaff was attentive and appreciated the business. Place started filling up later in our visit, but we never felt crowded. The selection of dishes were not the usual list of enchiladas and tacos, but various combinations that compelled us to try new things. Fried avocado, mole enchiladas, and chorizo queso, just to start. Reasonable total of $75 included dinner for four, drinks, appetizer and 20% tip. read more

Came to this restaurant during Ormond burger week on Sunday, May 4. We were a group of 10 people and one server. The atmosphere is nice in this place. Our server was very friendly and our drink order came promptly. The burger itself was tasty but dry. I think the saving Grace on the burger was the grilled pineapple in it and the pieces of Al Pastor within the burger. As mentioned, our server was very friendly and did speak both English and Spanish as do I. My wife wanted a single birrilla taco and while the menu states tacos come in three on a plate with rice, I asked our server if it was possible to order just one taco. I asked her in English and in Spanish and each answer in both languages was "yes, you can". As mentioned, we were in a group of 10 and those around me heard the question and answer. When our order finally comes out, we were given the plate of three with rice instead of a single taco. I asked our waitress why this happened and she said you can only order in three and it comes with Reiss. My rebuttal was I asked in both languages and she affirmed I could order just one taco. Needless to say we weren't happy and she didn't take it back. We were stuck paying for the plate we didn't order and no apology was offered. read more

New place in a location that hasn't had good luck with keeping businesses open. Looked really busy but was seated right away. Took our drink order. When the drink order was served, it was wrong. We ordered raspberry margarita and mojito. We got regular margaritas. I got mine changed to the mojito. Candyce stayed with the regular margarita. She said they did not skimp on the tequila. Candyce had 2 enchiladas with saffron rice and refried beans. I had the trio enchiladas with chicken pork and beef. Rice with black beans. Both meals were very good They also make guacamole fresh at your table picture of that. Not bad but still has the newness jitters. Very nice looking and clean inside. read more

We tried Fridas for the first time mid afternoon today. My Wife and I were the only people at the bar. Bartender quickly put menus in front of us and then disappeared. Never took our drink order. We waited 15minutes before leaving. Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

So this restaurant is still new. And it seems to have some hurdles to being a great go to. Kudos First : the food was yum. It was good. Everyone was happy with thier dishes and our last minute dessert splurge churros were fantastic. And omg you need a single margarita to have your eat all the food buzz. The servers were sweet. They tried. But we didn't get our appetizer queso.... no water refills, the table was cleaned after we got there.... So go. Try it. It has a lot of potential. Enjoy your food. Don't try and pet the cactus. GET THE CHURROS. read more

Decided to try this new place as we were all in the mood for Mexican food. We were seated right away by a friendly hostess which was nice. The server came over an took our drink order right away which was nice. She also brought over chips an salsa which was good. But honestly that was the only good part besides the service. The food wasn't that great. Maybe it's just what we ordered but it wasn't very good. I had Chile verde which the server ended up taking off the bill as I couldn't eat it . It was very nice of her to do that. Maybe I should of ordered something else that would have been better. I guess the search continues. So wanted to like this place especially with all the great reviews. read more

I was getting my brakes done on my car across the street when I realized it was time for a snack. I am so glad that I made the choice to go to Fridas! It started out with a drink and some chips, but I ended up inviting my friend to come join me when she got off work so we could order some food together. Everything was incredible! I live in Palm Coast, but I would drive to Ormond Beach just eat here again. The bartender was wonderful and he made amazing drinks! Thank you all for the awesome service and great food! read more
