“ Some of the best Mexican food I’ve had in a long time. Visiting from Northern CO and I’m so glad we landed on Frida for dinner. Margarita was good, but the food was top notch. Some of the most flavorful fajitas I’ve had. Full of flavor, perfect spice level and plenty of it. Will definitely be back next time I’m in town. ”
“ This place is one of the rarest spots I found for AUTHENTIC Mexican food. I'm sooooooo picky. First impression walking was I thought it was pretty and it looked clean. Staff smiled and seated my party of 13 right away. I always judge a restaurant their chips and salsa because wity experience, it tells me what kind of food and effort the food will taste. The chips and salsa was really good so I was looking at the menu and was impressed with the options. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu because everyone in my party raved how good everything was. The rice was soooo fluffy and flavorful and beans were smooth and good.. staff was so accommodating and friendly. Another pretty young female waitress from another table was soooo sweet to little son, she made him feel really special. I will definitely be Back when I come again to Glenwood Springs and be recommending it to friends and family. ”
“ I must say it was an incredible experience! The food here is undeniably the best Mexican cuisine I have ever tasted. Each and every dish are incredible with flavors. Though slightly pricey, every penny spent is absolutely worth it. The chicken flautas are perfectly crispy in texture and the accompanying spicy sauce took it to another level. The chicken fajitas were also outstanding. In fact, every dish on the menu is a standout. I definitely recommend this restaurant. ”
“ My go to Mexican restaurant while I'm Glenwood. Delicious bites, good service, and wholesome food. Haven't had a bad bite here and the guac in particular is scrumptious. ”
“ I always love coming here. They will warn you that the plate is hot, and that keeps my delicious chicken chimichanga, rice and beans so hot. And you know there is no better way to eat your meal than it’s super hot and fresh! I’ve been coming here for a few years now but this maybe the first time I have reviewed!! ”
“ They’re not kidding about their Mexican food being authentic. Soooooo good that I want to come back here from North of Denver just to have good Mexican food. My husband and I shared the shrimp ceviche tostadas, chile relleno, enchilada, rice and beans. I also got an horchata and my husband got the Luna colada. Every single thing had great flavor. I asked where the owners were from because this is my fav style of Mexican food; they are from Michoacan. Aside from all that goodness, the atmosphere was also very cute! Well done. ”
“ I eat here all the time. In fact, I am at the bar right now. Great spicy margaritas. Get a grande. Everything I have ever had is great. It can get super busy. Mind your shit. Don't take up a table if you don't need it. Move to the bar. Simple courtesy. This is a local establishment with local workers. The restaurant has lasted years where others have failed. It's a neat place, with great employees that care. I just had a tasty flauta plate ”
“ Everything was really delicious, from the salsa, the house margarita to the flautas, tamales and the pork green Chile! It’s a smaller restaurant and parking is limited- definitely recommend calling ahead for large groups - the restaurant atmosphere was very nice- loved the balconies built in with metal sculptures of mariachi musicians- great use of empty space to make you feel like you’re actually visiting Mexico! ”
