Reviews Frida's Gourmet Mexican Cuisine

The atmosphere is rich interesting and beautiful with the Frida paintings, colorful walls and decor. I love a good ambiance for dinner! We had the most sweet server she was absolutely wonderful. I wish I remembered her name so I could call her out here. She’s a gem! The food was delicious and upscale Mexican. The flavors in the sauces are complex and a treat for a nice dinner. It’s a rare Mexican restaurant these days that serves unique and fine dining dishes. My only disappointment was the mole - you can tell it’s made with lots of care - but way too sweet and watery than it should be IMO. I will definitely come back though - overall a lovely experience.

It doesn't get any better than this! The tequila selection alone would rival any tequila shop in Mexico!! Service was amazing, food was even better and again, the tequila was very impressive! We were greeted almost immediately by a very friendly gal that came back quickly to take our drink orders. She was very knowledgeable about the tequila's and helped us make our selection. We ordered tequila and two different margaritas, one being the Ultimate Margarita which was probably the best I've ever had! I wish I could remember the names of the tequila, we ordered two extra anejo's, and they were both so smooth and spicy at the same time! Another lovely, friendly gal brought our drinks out and also took our food order. Again, she was super knowledgeable of the menu and was able to answer all of our questions with ease and familiarity. I wanted both black beans and refried beans mixed together and her answer was absolutely, best of both worlds! Nothing phased her and she smiled the entire time! Our food arrived quickly but not too quickly! Sometimes at Mexican restaurants it seems like it comes out way too fast to be freshly made. This took just the right amount of time and it was nice and piping hot! Let me just say, it was absolutely phenomenal! Every single bite of everything on the plate was delicious! I had the Camarones Gilberto Aceves which was the best camarones dish I've ever had and hubby had the Chiles en Nogada which was super unique and different. The sign says gourmet and they mean gourmet! We shared the lemon cake for dessert and it was also delicious! I highly recommend Frida's and will definitely return if in the area! This is a true gem of a restaurant and Anacortes is lucky to have them!

This place was fantastic! The chicken Riviera (white chocolate and pistachio mole) was so good and a fun version of mole. The soup was also great! Server was helpful and attentive.

The dishes at Frida's are beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the servers are friendly and professional. This is a nice place to bring visitors or meet up with (adult) family. It's a bit too upscale for the palates of most young children.

Located in downtown Anacortes, this restaurant is decorated uniquely with paintings of famous Mexican artist Frida Kahlo (a painter best known for her uncompromising and brilliantly colored self-portraits). They have wide selections of tequila, fusion Mexican food. Extremely friendly staff, great service.

Best Tequila selection around! Just ask for their tequila menu or from the tequila cabinet. Anything from Blancos to Extra Añejos, bottom shelf to top shelf, premium and ultra premium. One of the guys brought out some that are not even on the list or avaliable out on the market yet. If you are looking to sip on some rare/hard to find tequilas than this is the spot in Skagit County. Dont forget about their amazing foods also. This place gets packed so reserve ahead of time and enjoy!!!

We had a nice evening sitting outside. These service was meh. I think they tried to be friendly but they were busy and fridas. What I love about this place is the chef is more of an artist. This is different than any other Mexican restaurant. They put a twist on things they have some amazing things on their menu that I'm looking forward to trying the future. I don't know what was in the rice but it was green and was delicious it was soft it was hot and like the restaurant I had gone to the week previous whereI could barely choke it down. There were unique flavors in the coleslaw that you just kept wanting to eat it and figure out what it was. I think a little vinegary too. It was great. The vegetables in the burrito were all cooked so well. I really do honestly believe their chef is an artist. Update: this time we tried both vegetation dishes they offer. One was crepes 'something' & the other not crepes lol (I can't remember name) They were great but pretty much just sauteed veggies. The little green chip dish with black beans mixed in made a great improvement. The rice helped too. The crepes we believe are just thin egg as you can see in a close up photo included. It was alright. Neither sorted a lot of flavor. Needed garlic at least. But overall, we will be back!

Best mexican food we have had in Anacortes. I especially liked the salmon tortillas. Very nicely decorated restaurant. Service is good (if a little bit gruff).
