Tried Frida Tacolandia in Dallas after getting a recommendation, and I'll be honest--I was a little skeptical walking in since it was pretty empty for a Thursday evening. But trying new spots is our thing, so we stuck with it. Right away, the music was blasting and set a great vibe. Service was outstanding--felt genuine, not just because we were one of the only tables there. Now the real test... the food. And it did NOT disappoint. Everything hit exactly how I hoped it would. Authentic flavors, well-seasoned, and just overall satisfying. Definitely adding this taco spot to the rotation. Glad we gave it a shot. read more

We were so happy to stumble upon this place on a late Sunday morning. It's such a bright and cheery atmosphere inside and the service matched that attitude. The food was delicious and I felt it in my soul. The salsa that came with the chips and salsa was SO tasty and was served warm!!! We also got the cucumber agua fresca that wasn't super sweet but was super refreshing! 10000/10 stars we will be coming back!! read more

I went here spontaneously with my family and we all enjoyed what we ordered! I got chicken enchiladas and although I preferred it when I added hot sauce on top, it was still pretty good. The service was very friendly. My husband and I are coming back for the birria tacos (SO GOOD) and to try out the chilaquiles and menudo. And yes, there is Frida everywhere - it's entertaining to look at. read more

Wow! So glad I came here to get authentic Mexican cuisine during my work trip to Dallas! Coming from the northeast, I knew tacos would be a must for this trip. I ordered an agua fresca de pepino (cucumber lime), which was refreshing and tasty. The house chips and salsa were great! We enjoyed eating them and looking at the fun, colorful decor of this place while we waited for our order to come out. The birria tacos with consume were delicious! The chicken tamale was flavorful, moist, and perfect when paired with their house hot sauces. The chile relleno was perfectly crisp and filled with fresh melted oaxaca cheese. It was my coworker's first time trying chile relleno or tamale and I was so happy to be able to introduce her to them at a place with such authentic and flavorful preparation. The service was also wonderful! Our waitress was happy to answer questions, give us time with the menu, and she was eager to hear our feedback, which was entirely positive. The menu had titles in English and Spanish but descriptions in Spanish, so I just translated the descriptions as best I could to my coworker. She was so happy I found this place on Yelp, as was I! read more

Greeted at the door! Chill vibe! Loved the fresh, homemade chips. The Platillo De Birria Plate was delicious. Very fresh, flavorful and juicy. The only reason I had to give it 4 stars is because I wish the taco was a little softer for texture purposes. Would definitely go back! Maybe even try their famous Birria Burrito. read more

*I only tried the Birria Tacos* In a culinary landscape cluttered with expensive interpretations, this establishment soars above the rest through intellectual rigor, soaring creativity, and reverent originality. Frida's engages Mexican cuisine as a living, breathing, dynamic tradition--honoring its roots while thoughtfully adding to its expression. It resists both nostalgia and gimmickry, presenting dishes that feel precise, confident, and deeply intentional. This is not performance, but mastery--culinary work that expands the conversation without ever speaking over it. read more

Thank you Yelpers! I trusted your review as a visitor from the North and you guys came through for me. This is the first time I ever had birria tacos. Where I'm from, they attempt to make it but I'm always left disappointed therefore I don't even give them a chance anymore. Birria tacos with consume have been trendy and as a foodie, I must have it. We walked into a heavily decorated dining room and people were in masks, sitting in the booths, waiting for their food. We were greeted immediately. I didn't see birria tacos on their menu but the woman behind the counter was happy to take my order. She was so nice. Apparently the 3 orders ahead of us also purchased birria tacos. We sat about 10 minutes inside waiting for our order. Sit down when you eat it. It's messy but worth it. The meat is tender, so flavorful, and oozing with cheese. The consume is the winner here. It has that "cooking all day" taste with shredded melt in your mouth meat in it. So good that I slurped on the consume after the tacos were done. I wanted to bathe in it or at least boil some ramen noodles and eat it like soup. So delicious. It's has little heat and an explosion of flavor. The location is quite sketchy. There were police vehicles in the parking lot and a few with its siren on in the neighboring houses. This is not normal where I live so I felt a little concerned but I didn't experience anything negative. This is truly a Mom and Pop shop to support. read more

We were not disappointed. The fajitas were a combo of beef and shrimp, and both were very tender. They come with the typical sides. The enchiladas were some of the best I have had in a long time. Clearly hand rolled, stuffed, flavorful, and delicious. I also got a side puffy taco, and it was awesome. We really enjoyed our dinner at Uno Mas. We will be back.

I decided on the milanesa de pollo after looking at some photos and my partner got the chicken enchiladas. We snacked on complimentary chips and salsa on the meantime. The milanesa de pollo was beautiful, with generous pieces of chicken, a smattering of charred corn, and a fresh arugula salad to alleviate some of the deep-fried guilt. Sadly the enchiladas were less enticing -- the tortilla wrap was kind of rubbery and the chicken was unseasoned and stringy. The service could also be more attentive, since we ran out of water for a bit. Not a bad choice if you're in the area, but maybe do some research beforehand on what people recommend.

Came in on a whim on a Friday night around 9pm with no reservation. We were instantly taken aback…read moreby the ambiance here. My wife and I agreed it felt like we were back in Mexico City. Chris our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. He took his time walking us through the menu and explaining what made El Carlos Elegante so special. The drinks were perfect. My wife loved her Desert Flor while I thoroughly enjoyed my Modelo Micheleda. Her Surf and Turf one hitter was exceptional. I have to say my Crab Cake was just ok. It tasted a little pasty and very heavy on the bread. The Pulpo was absolutely amazing. Perfect texture and the sauce it was served almost had me licking the plate. The El Machete was incredible from its presentation, to the freshness of the corn tortilla, to the quality of the meat inside. Definitely recommend this. We really liked our Okra + Shishito course, we just wished it had more okra in it. The two things I loved about the Al Pastor was of course the sauce it was served on but the fact that I got to enjoy it like a steak. It was served sliced on a bias like flank steak. Typically Al Pastor is finely chopped and served in tacos and burritos, so this was a different eating experience for me. And of course it was delicious as well. We cannot wait to come back and try more of the menu.

I was genuinely excited to bring my friend here for her birthday after such an incredible…read moreexperience back in December. That visit checked every box -- the food, service, ambiance, and overall hospitality were all exceptional. What really stood out to me then was the attention to detail. I had casually mentioned that one of my cocktails wasn't quite my taste, and Harry personally reached out afterward to say they'd gladly adjust it next time. That kind of thoughtful follow-up leaves a lasting impression and is exactly the sort of hospitality that elevates a restaurant experience. Unfortunately, this recent visit felt like a completely different restaurant. We decided to do a combination of à la carte dishes along with the Experience menu after being told this version would feature entirely off-menu items, which genuinely intrigued us since Ihad also done the Experience previously. At the start of dinner, we were asked about allergies and dietary restrictions. I clearly explained that I have a mango allergy and do not eat beef. Our server then asked whether I ate other meats, and I clarified yes -- and even specifically mentioned that if the machete dish was beef, please still include it because my friend could enjoy it and I really wanted her to try it. He confirmed it would be the sirloin version, so we happily agreed not to modify that course. So imagine our surprise when one of the first dishes arrived dressed with a mango vinaigrette. Thankfully, we barely caught him quietly mentioning "mango" as he set it down. We immediately looked at each other thinking, "Didn't we just discuss the allergy?" It was disappointing, but unfortunately also representative of the overall service throughout the evening. Our server seemed disengaged, inattentive, and often not fully listening. Empty glasses sat untouched, opportunities to order additional items were missed, and at one point we were simply handed the check without even being asked if we wanted anything else. We also ordered a bottle of sparkling wine and ended up pouring it ourselves for most of the evening because our glasses were rarely refilled. I completely understand not leaving the bottle tableside if walkway space is limited, but repeatedly needing to get up ourselves to retrieve it felt out of sync with the level of service one expects from a Michelin-recommended restaurant -- especially at this price point. Then came the machete dish. Instead of the sirloin version we specifically discussed, we received the vegetarian potato version. When the server asked how it looked, I politely explained that we were disappointed because he had specifically told us it would be the sirloin preparation. At minimum, I would have expected another protein substitution given the earlier conversation about what I could eat. I'm also still unclear whether the Experience menu was truly "off-menu" as described, since several dishes -- including the halibut -- appeared familiar. Had that been communicated differently, we likely would have skipped the Experience altogether and simply curated our own meal. At the end of the night, spending over $500 while pouring our own wine, nearly being served an allergen we explicitly disclosed, and receiving dishes different from what was promised made for a deeply disappointing experience -- especially after such a phenomenal first visit. It honestly felt sad more than anything because I know how wonderful this restaurant can be. I'm not sure what changed in the last five months, but the difference was significant.

A very cool vibe
