    Signage and flowers!

    Wow! I've driven past this place multiple times and have never been in- opportunity lost! Had a wonderful breakfast with a friend. Portions were very generous and soooo tasty! It's a busy place but the staff was on top of things like coffee refills, extra sauces- you name it! The art on the walls also contributed to the festive atmosphere!

    Very tasty.   Home fries are a regular cubed potato, doesn't seem frozen.

    This place, yes! Not our normal side of town so we don't really go out of our 'circle' but we were heading to Costco and looked for local around there. Place is very clean, very cute. Outside seating. Saw a dog also out there. Sat down right away, server was fast, friendly, knowledgeable. *Kari* Food was hot and delicious! This place is tucked into a shopping center, right where Silver Dragon was for many years. Decent parking. Decent prices. We WILL go back!

    Tartine w/ side of sausage & Veggie Breakfast Burrito
    Kristina K.

    I came in with a friend after a hike, so we were a little underdressed, but the whole restaurant is more on the casual side so we felt okay. We sat outside which was shaded and very cute! The menu is very large and we felt slightly overwhelmed but I decided on the Tartine with a side of sausage and my friend got the Veggie Breakfast Burrito. The Tartine says it comes with whole wheat bread or jalapeño corn bread, and after I ordered I realized I forgot to specify which bread I wanted and was never asked. Upon tasting, I think the bread was just regular bread, which was fine but I feel is something that I could have been informed about before hand. However, the presentation of food was beautiful! Everything we ate tasted very fresh, including the freshly squeezed orange juice, which was much more than a "shot". I loved my meal, but I do feel it was a small portion for the price. Though, the breakfast burrito was one of the cheapest things on the menu and was quite substantial. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and my time at Frida's Cafe! The menu is large and there is something for everyone. I do not feel a strong need to return but I definitely would enjoy it again if I did return!

    Artist, icon, feminist- her legacy lives on in so many ways- including heavily/loosely inspired restaurants such as this one located in Tucson. When my kid did her own research, this inspired restaurant popped up during our mini vacation. Frida's C. is spacious- but do come early in the morning on weekends. My kid and I got right in the nick of time like at 10 or so- after that let's say- 11 on, you'd be waiting outside for your name to be called. You'll find breakfast, brunch, lunch, beer, some alcohol beverages, fresh pressed juices, etc. Expect burritos, tacos and other dishes with names like 'El Gordito Diego' sandwich, 'Hummingbird Omelette', 'Frida & Diego Chilaquiles', etc. My kid liked her cheesy veg omelette with a tasty side of rajas poblanas+corn and my mushroom+provolone omelette was tasty and what took my dish to another level was the side of fresh fruit. The pineapple was sweet, the oranges- heck, there are oranges and then there are oranges- somehow, these were freaking tasty. The single pancake my kid and I shared tasted doughy and was densed. But our fresh pressed juices though were money. Aside from the pancake, service and price were nice.

    French Toast Eggs over easy and a little under done Perfect breakfast sausages Extra side of fruit and fresh OJ

    Food was ok Servers were nice enough when they did talk to me Possible they were prioritizing they're bigger tables and regulars which is fair Very cute decor in tribute to Mz Frida Khalo Little crowded table wise inside but there's more seating in the outdoor patio from what I could see on the way in

    Good morning Coffee

    I wish I could say this is the best place for breakfast but I would be lying. It wasn't bad but it had no spark or flavor. The coffee was just ok and the Chilequlles was cold but I didn't send it back because it would not have made it more flavorful. I probably would eat there again but it would not be my first choice. I do love a great chilequlles but this was not it.

    I went to Fridas Cafe at 5526 E. Grant for the first time today. The staff was friendly and the vanilla bean pancakes I got were delicious. I got the 2-2-2 meal 2 pancakes 2 pieces of bacon and 2 eggs for $12.99. I liked it! The ambiance was cool lots of Frida Kahlo photos on the walls.

    First time to highly recommended Frida's cafe. Larger than expected with covered patio that someone had a dog ; don't know if dogs allowed inside? Maybe service dogs ? Big menu breakfast , lunch & brunch . I tried the huevos rancheros with 3 eggs beautiful presentation! Ordered another tortilla to finish the beautiful sauce & egg after finishing the eggs & rancheros . They have an early bird 6-8 am specials including the huevos rancheros w 2 eggs not 3 for $5.99 a gonga! Many great looking items on the menu ! I was very impressed and will return again . Se Craycroft e one block s of grant far Sw of L shaped strip mall with chuse fitness & Ross store on other east side .

    This place is a hidden gem! We were looking for a cafe for brunch and stumbled upon it. I love that the cafe embraces Frida with the artwork and menu. We went ahead and tried an item on the breakfast and lunch side. Both were flavorful. The rancheros had a nice little spice to it but wasn't overpowering in anyway. Our waitress was fantastic and informed us of some changes in pricing due to the high cost of eggs. Understandably since egg prices are insane atm. I do appreciate that the business doesn't want to raise the egg prices permanently but need to do to the current market. Can't wait to go back!

    This charming breakfast place serves traditional and mexican style breakfast dishes. I really enjoyed the fresh orange juice and french toast. The staff here are friendly and welcoming. I always had a full cup of coffee. Overall a decent dining experience.

    Looks like lots of yummy breakfast options but what about lunch?

    They have great lunches. I think they have the best sour dough bread in town & they use it for their club sandwich. It is even big enough to share. Their presentation of every dish is fantastic. You really can't go wrong!

Neither of us had been there in quite a while and were looking forward to it. The restaurant is clean and spacious and we were seated right away and given menus. Eclectic is a perfect name. Everyone should be able to find something that appeals: sandwiches, egg dishes, salads, Mexican, and more. I'd been craving a Rueben and my friend decided to try the taco salad, which is on the seasonal menu. The waiter complimented my choice, saying the Rueben is the best thing on the menu and likely the best Rueben I've ever had, so I was excited. He offered sweet potato fries as an add-on, and I took the offer. Our food arrived soon. I am a bit late on the photos, sorry. A couple bites are gone from my sandwich and the top layer of my friend's salad was already gone. The salad was billed as chicken, beans, cheese, and a host of others things, packed into a generously-sized bowl. She was sure the meat was pork based on taste and color and asked the waiter, but he said it was chicken. My sandwich was plump with corned beef, cheese and sauerkraut. It had lots of tasty sauce but the bottom bread was so soggy that it disintegrated and was difficult to eat. I ended up separating the breads, scraped all the good stuff onto the crispy side of bread, and it was good. I was getting full, so just ate the insides of the second half, so didn't deal with the other soggy toast. The sweet potato fries were lightly crispy and should have been served hot.they did taste good and came with a dipping sauce I enjoyed. All in all, it was a nice lunch out, great company, but the food was nothing special. My sandwich, fries, her salad, two soft drinks came to $54 plus tip.

I had previously been to their Campbell location, so this time I wanted to try something completely different for breakfast. I went with the Monte Cristo with a side of their potatoes, and wow this dish absolutely delivered. First, the bread. It's thick, almost like Texas toast, which gives the whole sandwich a perfect structure. Inside, it's stuffed with delicious ham and melty cheese, then battered and cooked into that classic Monte Cristo style. The outside is crispy, the inside is soft and gooey, and every bite is full of flavor. It's the kind of breakfast that makes you pause for a second after the first bite because you know you made the right choice. And the potatoes... how do you make something as simple as potatoes taste that good? They're small, perfectly cooked, and somehow packed with flavor in every bite. My friend ordered the Duck Confit Skillet and she was definitely not disappointed. Just the presentation alone makes it look incredible, but the flavors are where it really shines. It's made with braised duck, shallots, spinach, cabernet-braised cherries, and cherry goat cheese mousse. And let me tell you they did not hold back on that cheese mousse. It was a generous scoop and it paired perfectly with the dish. It also comes with the same delicious potatoes I had, which again, did not disappoint. She ordered her eggs over medium, and honestly that's exactly how I'd get them too. For drinks, she had an iced matcha latte and I stuck with their house coffee. She said the matcha was amazing, and my coffee was exactly what you want with brunch, warm, smooth, and reliable. The staff were super friendly and helpful, which always makes the experience better. The restaurant itself is spotless and really aesthetically pleasing. It's bright, welcoming, and kind of feels like you've stepped into your grandma's cozy cottage kitchen - warm, charming, and just really cute. Safe to say... I'll definitely be back.

I also couldn't skip one of their signature items, the 1/2 bacon flight. We tried Applewood Smoked, Honey Cured, Hickory, and Chef's Choice (which was Jalapeño Ranch). Every single one had that perfect balance of crispy and chewy. My favorites were a tie between the Applewood Smoked (classic bacon, can't go wrong) and the Hickory (super savory with great depth). m so bummed I forgot our server's name because he was fantastic - super attentive, kept the refills coming while we sat and talked, and just made the whole experience even better.
