Place was nice, it has big tv's so def seems like a good place to catch a big game . Server was nice and on top of things . Ordered : Ceviche : 10/10 was fresh :) arrachera steak plate 8/10 came with guacamole and beans plus choice of corn or flour tortillas . Bean cream soup (it was on the special menu ) it was good but way too much. I thought it was going to be a smaller portion. I probably wouldn't order it again. Drink Adelita : 10/10 read more

Beautiful interior still, has stayed as beautiful as when it was first opened. Service is usually pretty good. But there have been a couple times that I have had some misses, but it was the host station. Servers were always good. I have not had the host issues for the last year or so... so maybe it was just an unfortunate time. I always prefer this spot over the old Frida. I don't know why the food tastes better here, maybe it does or maybe it's just to decor. I don't know. read more

Cantina Frida has a wide variety of succulent tacos. Their tableside guacamole is also superb. We dropped in and tried a variety of tacos: steak, lobster, shrimp, and chicken. No complaints! The restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday evening. Don't really know what to make of that. Overall, despite the quiet, I enjoyed the evening. Three cheers for the ultra-generous and ultra-chunky tableside guacamole! That was my favorite part of the meal. read more

My Beverly Hills friend chose Cantina Frida as the place to meet up again after a long time . She couldn't have picked a better spot. I had not visited before. We both loved everything about it. Our lunch started with the nachos with pico de gallo (generously served). We both chose for our main dish the pork pastor quesadillas. They were fabulous -- hearty but not heavy, filled with tender pork and tasty, substantial cheeses. The serving of three in the order was more than enough for us. But we couldn't pass up splitting the pastel de tres leches for dessert -- luscious! All of this was made even nicer by our wonderful servers, who were patient beyond belief in waiting for us to order, to finish, to decide on dessert. They both said "no worries, you haven't seen each other in six years, take your time." I don't know their names -- this was about noon- 2 p.m. on November 5. The space is beautifully appointed, and has a kind of post-modern look. and will be just right for any kind of visit, lunch or dinner. Next time I want to try the bar! read more

I've been to Frida Cantina several times in the last week. The first time was just for drinks and to watch the Dodgers game on the large screen TVs. The drink menu has a lot of interesting options and the bartender is skilled at making craft cocktails to order. They also have a happy hour until 6pm on weekdays, with quite a few food and drink options. We loved the shrimp ceviche and the chicken enchiladas which are significantly discounted. Also, the guacamole is fresh and delicious. It's a very comfortable yet upscale restaurant / bar to go to with a group or for solo dining. read more

Surprised that I never have came to Cantina Frida in Beverly Hills before. When we came, it was packed and luckily we were able to get a table. Though I came her for a meeting, it was too loud to have a conversation. The ambiance was inviting, decor was elegant and service was impeccable. Guacamole- was made on the spot with the freshest ingredients. Avocado was creamy, and just the right amount of lime and spices. Ceviche Cantina- the shrimp was cooked, it was a beautiful presentation and vibrant. The flavors were also incredible. Carne Asada- the beef was well seasoned, and perfectly wrapped I fresh tortilla. Gobernador Taco- The melted cheese was a standout on top of the fresh shrimp. It had a delicate smokey flavor that was very tasteful. I highly recommend Cantina Frida if you are looking for a fine dining Mexican food experience. read more

Valeria and Jonathan were absolutely the best! They waited on us and were so kind and attentive. The place itself was packed. I'd recommend to call before going as their was a private event and it took some time to get seated. Due to holidays, I anticipate it will only get busier with private parties. The music was a vibe. They were playing Rufus Du Sol and Fisher. After my Maracuya cocktail, nachos,and table side guacamole, I swear I was a kid at Disneyland. Easy parking next door with free city parking. Also Beverly Canon Garden is so beautifully decorated for the holidays that stopping by for dinner and drinks here and walking thru the courtyard was an absolute vibe. read more

This place is always popping! My partner and I came here for Cinco de Mayo and they even had a mariachi band playing around the restaurant. Definitely come here if you're looking for a nice place for drinks and appetizers. I recommend making a reservation because it does tend to get busy. Otherwise, you'll have to wait a few minutes for a table. Cantina Frida offers a very similar menu to other Frida restaurants in LA. Food can be a hit or miss. However they have great margaritas and appetizers for you to have a great time if you're here during happy hour or an evening. read more

Upscale Mexican food spot in Beverly Hills. There's a public parking lot next door. Very open space and cute with a bar and TVs which had sports playing which was good. Great service and tasty food. Queso Fundido with chorizo - yum Aquachile - nice kick! Molcajete - delish Dessert was this chocolate layer parfait kinda thing which was sooo good! The only thing that was semi annoying was the constant camera flashing from their in-house camera lady taking photos all night at tables. Travel_lifestyle_chow read more

Sad to say, this place has gone downhill. Unsure if it's a change of management or a change in the kitchen. We ordered the Burrito California Wet and the mix fajitas with beef and chicken. The steak in the Burrito was burnt to a crisp and very limited. The red sauce had no flavor. Would highly recommend against ordering this item. The chicken on the fajitas was extremely overcooked and dry. Steak part of the fajitas had no flavor and was definitely not Prime. Margaritas were still on point and the staff is always friendly and makes us feel valued when saying "welcome back". I work in hospitality and know that restaurants are getting squeezed these days, making profit hard to come by. Also don't mind paying a bit more to help support local business. With that said, struggle with the quality vs. price that we paid for today's experience. read more

The ambiance is great at this upscale Mexican restaurant in the heart of Beverly Hills. We walked in on a Sunday evening without a reservation and were promptly seated. They provided water and took our orders in a timely manner. The queso fundido was excellent -- fresh baked and bubbly with good seasoning and great tortillas to accompany it. I liked my enchiladas fine - they weren't the best I've had but solid. The churros were stuffed with cream and had a good caramel dipping sauce. Service was pretty decent but they did prematurely offer a dessert menu while we were still eating and took a second to refill our water pitcher. Having Sunday football on the many TV screens was a fun touch, but didn't take away from the nice atmosphere. read more

It's one of my favorite Mexican restaurants to dine in. I have been here several times over the past two years. My guy and I are return customers. Here's why... What we've tried: 1. Chips & Salsa, it's a must for us. Use to be free, but it's a $4 charge now. Chips are made in-house, fresh, crispy, and hint of salt. The salsa is not chunky, spicy puree. They offer red & green. 2. Guacamole is made table side, cost is $20, tasty and shareable. 3. Try the tacos, you can't go wrong, we've had the pastor, pork belly, carne asada, and polo. 4. Trio enchiladas, chicken (shredded) with tomatillo sauce. You get three enchiladas served with rice and beans. Try it, you will thank me later. I guarantee. 5. Camarones Al Ajillo, if you like shrimp, you must try. This is fresh prawns served in a butter garlic wine sauce over white rice. B-A-B-Y, your taste buds will dance. Pros 1. Great ambiance and location. Restaurant is nestled in Beverly Hills "Restaurant Row," as I refer to that particular area. During the Christmas season It's decorated beautifully with some great photo ops. 2. Inside, you have trees! Yes, trees (only 2), bringing the outdoors inside. I love it! 3. There is an outdoor patio area and outdoor sidewalk seating for those warm summer nights. 4. Friendly staff. Attentive. Waiters/Waitresses know the menu and are able to make confident recommendations and/or answer questions. 5. Delicious food, yes sir/ma'am, the food is A-M-A-Z-I-NG!!! 6. Nice bar area. 7. Versatile music selection, played at the right volume, you can still have a conversation with others at your table. 8. Restrooms are clean. Located upstairs. 9. TVs inside. Some seatings will have an obstructed view. Cons I honestly don't have a con. I enjoy the food, vibe, and receive consistent, great service and food. All around, Cantina Frida is a win for me. This restaurant has versatility. Date Night. Girls Nite. Guys Night. Family Night. Business Lunch. Solo Venture. Dress up or down. Heels or sneakers. Cantina Frida is perfect to fit your requests, style, and/or vibe. Let's talk price. It will vary depending on what you order, alcoholic beverages, etc. Expect to spend about $80 - $100 for two people, including an appetizer. Parking - nearby lots, under $10. Elevators inside lots can take you to the surface street. In any direction, the restaurant is half a block to a full block walking distance. I don't have an address for the parking lots. Here's my disclaimer...I'm a CA native, and I have been to a few states in Mexico; I can't distinguish from "authentic" Mexican food and CA Mexican food. I make that statement because I frequently hear how Mexican food in CA isn't authentic. For me, I consider Cantina Frida very good food (smile). read more

Food was stupendous. Would have received a 5 just for the food alone. The reason for the 3 stars is for the service. A friend and I were walk-ins last Tuesday (March 5). It wasn't busy, in fact, the wait staff were off to the side talking amongst themselves to each other which later added to the frustration. We were in the area to attend the Jean-Michel Basquiat showcase exhibit at the Gagosian. The hostess put us in a small booth. (Which wouldn't have been a big deal if it wasn't for the fact that my dinner companion is 6'3, and me being 5'8. Our knees were touching.) The host continued to seat others in the larger tables. (We understood that we were walk-ins but the hostess continued to seat other 2-tops into bigger 4 top tables after us). Our server never approached us and instead attended a table next to us and another walk in. (I know it was a walk in because we had small talk when we were walking in to the restaurant with the other table who was seated in a bigger table than us). We watched as the other table sat after us was given water, had a server approach, them, and was even given an appetitezer. During this entire time we weren't asked if we wanted a drink, appetizer, or entree. I was quietly getting irritated with the lack of any service and during this long period I let my other party know that we should just get something small and maybe eat an entree and get a drink at another restaurant after the JMB show. (I had originally wanted to try the skirt steak and the special margarita). I finally was able to flag the server down who let us know she would be right back. We hungrily waited. When she finally came to our table, which was by the kitchen and close to the servers station, she asked us what we wanted to order. We ordered 2 glasses of water, a coke, the ceviche mixto, and the carnitas. The server seemed annoyed we didn't order cocktails because she repeated "Is that all for drinks?" after telling her "no thankyou" after she already asked us if we wanted a cocktail. The food runners were amazing, in fact the ceviche arrived before our drinks (water and coke). When the ceviche arrived we noticed it only came with four chips (2 each), so we ordered more with the server. The additional order of chips never came until we asked the food runner for chips, after asking the server twice. The chips came near the end of our meal after receiving our entree. The food runners were on point! Refilling our waters, coming out with the food in a timely manner. It was frustrating to see the server pay so much attention to the older couple sitting across from us and the other walk-in table that we had light conversations with earlier. I'm not sure if we were given less attention because we were younger, or that I was wearing "arty" jeans. We just weren't given the time of day. Let's move on from the service. (I'm still contemplating making a tiktok on the experience). The food was spectacular!!! The ceviche wasn't overloaded with too many Ingredients. The recipe is exactly what you expect of a good ceviche. Highly recommend as an appetizer! The actual ceviche serving proportions are extremely generous. (Just order some more tortilla chips on the side when you make the order). The carnitas melted in your mouth. It was slow cooked to perfection. The pork shoulder meat was moist, just the right amount of fattiness and extremely tender with just the right amount of spices. Will go back for this dish alone. We ended up ordering some flour tortillas to enjoy this shared entree that we turned into an appetizer. If we were given the time of day would have definitely ordered more items. Will come back but will be making a reservation in hopes of a better experience. read more

Valet parking is very demanding. I gave the valet a $6 tip on a $17 valet fee, that's a 35% tip! The attendant kept accusing me of leaving him no tip and was very rude, refusing to open the car doors for us. He refused to open doors for us because we didn't give him a good enough tip. I asked the valet attendant to open the calculator on his phone and check how much tip I gave him. After he typed it in the calculator he saw that I gave him a $6 tip. I've never felt so insulted at a restaurant. If a 35% tip is not sufficient, what are these valet attendants expecting from me? Terrible experience. Very rude and greedy valet. Besides the valet, the food was rather bland and way too many onions in every dish. Mexican food is expected too have a certain amount of flavor and seasoning. read more

We had dinner at this restaurant last night on a Tuesday night. I ordered the halibut and it was really terrible. It had no taste and was extremely dried out. Everyone else enjoyed what they had and the salad with the strawberries and goat cheese is absolutely delicious. But while they did give us 20% percent off of our bill because of me not being able to eat my dinner it's still did not even cover the cost of my entrée and to make matters even worse, though waiter told the manager about our situation and the manager did not even have the decency to come by and introduce themselves and say sorry for the bad meal. Avoid this place on Tuesdays because that is when the chef in charge is off for the week. read more

Great food. Took such great care of our party of 27 people with incredible service and food!!

AVOID AVOID AVOID. Horrible food, even worse service from the manager (who refused to give his name but smugly said to call him "Jacob" if I write a review) who was aggressively rude. We only came back because of issues during a previous visit -- they offered "free table side guac" as an apology. Big mistake. The food was forgettable, but the real mess started when we presented the voucher. The manager blew up, claiming it was expired (no expiration listed) and tried to gaslight us into believing that "table side guacamole" somehow meant a side of guac, not the actual menu item labeled table side guacamole. He hovered over us as we paid, making sure we signed the bill and left a tip, hinting we wouldn't be allowed to leave otherwise. No attempt to resolve the situation. No apology. No accountability. The only bright spot was our server, who was kind and clearly embarrassed by the entire ordeal. I hope they find a better place to work. read more

Ambiance was great! Super cute inside and we sat at an indoor table next to the sidewalk (the wall is open to outside). Our server Pablo was very nice and attentive. We had the standard lime margaritas and they were really good. Everything was 5/5 for us but food was a 4/5. We had enchiladas suizas and fajitas and felt they were both good but lacking a little more flavor. Also no free chips and salsa but I'm sure that's the norm in Beverly Hills haha. read more

The ambiance was phenomenal, beautiful and classy. Parking was a hassle and the wait was a little offsetting. I have to consider that we were a large group, however some of our party didn't get their food for almost an hour after placing our order. The food was fancy and beautifully plated with large portion sizes but slightly bland in my opinion, I'm used to the char and spices of Mexican Food. read more
