Cantina Frida

We were here for a Christmas corporate lunch. Great place with Mexican dishes! Really nice atmosphere and service. Food is very tasty. I think this is also a great place for a date night.

Best authentic Mexican food!! Great service, not a long wait time for food. Nice and warm. 10/10 would recommend. Alex was awesome. Great recommendations.

Beautiful restaurant on Beverly Drive with AMAZING food! We ordered the Mole Negro and the Molcajete and both dishes were out of this world! Very authentic high-end Mexican cuisine. Atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing. We will definitely be back!

We ordered the tableside guacamole, which came with two sauces: red salsa and green salsa. Both were delicious, and the guacamole was generously portioned, enough to serve 3-4 people. We requested hot sauce, which came with an additional charge of $3, but it was absolutely worth it—super delicious and super hot as its supposed to be! We also ordered the vegetarian fajitas, which weren’t on the menu, but they accommodated our customization. The vegetables were cooked to perfection. Finally, we had the Tres Leches for dessert, and it was fantastic!

I ordered a salad, guacamole, and tacos from this place on a busy Sunday, and I was blown away by how amazing everything was! Despite the crowd, the service was excellent, and the staff were attentive. The salad was incredibly delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. I can't wait to go back just for that! To top it off, the prices were very reasonable for the quality and portions , I had an exceptional experience, and I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for authentic and delicious Mexican food!

Celebrating 2024 New Year’s Eve here. The food is so good. I feel full after having a big soup called poloze verde Drinks are awesome too. The hostesses at entrance are so linda. Love it. 😍 Cantina Frida, , offers a contemporary twist on traditional Mexican cuisine. Diners appreciate the lively ambiance, enhanced by high ceilings and an open, airy space. The menu features a variety of dishes, including seafood and vegetarian options, with popular items like the Cantina Nachos and Chips & Salsas. Guests frequently praise the attentive service and vibrant atmosphere, making it a popular spot for both casual meals and special occasions. This little sauce is super spicy 🥵. Challenge it if you dare 🤣 🥳 Happy New Year 🎊🎆

Drinks (and service) are good, food is not. the ceviche was bland and overpriced. if you’re looking for Mexican food in Beverly Hills, this isn’t the place.

If you're craving incredibly flavorful tacos, Cantina Frida is the place to go! Every bite is bursting with fresh, delicious flavors. The tacos are always made with the highest quality ingredients, and they never disappoint. One of the standout items is the guacamole—honestly, it's some of the best we've ever tasted. It's perfectly creamy with just the right amount of seasoning, and the chips they serve with it are crispy and fresh. The service is always fast and friendly, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere inside is relaxed and inviting, perfect for a casual meal with friends or family. Plus, the prices are fair, especially considering the area. You get a great experience without breaking the bank. If you're in the mood for delicious, authentic Mexican food, do yourself a favor and check out Cantina Frida—you won't regret it!

We visited the first time last night and made reservations on Open Table. we requested a high chair in the notes for our daughter and they had one waiting for us at the table. food was quick to the table and very good. The environment was fun, inviting, and not pretentious. The waiter and management was very friendly and helpful. We will be sure to come back.

Great service by Jose, yummy food, loved the Mole Negro , Ceviche AMAZING and had to take an order of churros back home to the Kids! Loved the atmosphere. Will be back, for sure.

Great food and service! Tableside quac was fantastic and the tequila menu is extensive.

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.

Great Happy hour 3-7 pm at the bar. Drinks are really good. Tried the HH tacos and guacamole which were good. Will come Back for the margarita and Paloma and maybe try something different on the food menu. Service staff was attentive.

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.

Love this place! I went there to celebrate Valentine's Day with my friends and the food turned out to be delicious! We even drank at the bar before our table was ready.

Great food, service vibe was excellent Had an amazing experience for my wife & I anniversary

Fave place with active bar, good food and drink. Friendly bar staff. Juan the Bar Manager is terrific!

The quality of food is always a 10/10 and ambiance is a great place to enjoy a nice dinner.

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.

As always, great service, great food. Will be a forever customer. All the tacos are delicious and worth the price. Bar makes great drinks.

The food here is not good. I had the chicken mole poblano and it was a couple of chicken tenders like the kind you buy at Trader Joe's with like a jar of mole poured over it. It wasn't marinated and the chicken didn't really pick up the flavor of the mole. The "Spanish" rice was sad. It was a scoop of dry flavorless rice and looked like it came from a cafeteria. The only decent part of the dish were the maduros that had nice crisp edges. $32 for a crappy dish is not worth it. Also the "salsa" and chips is a tiny cup of puréed tomatoes, should be free not $4. Clearly this is a tourist trap.

Great food & great ambiance. We loved our drinks. We will definitely go again. Our wait staff were very friendly.

Such a cute restaurant, I've seen this place for a long time and finally came in today before a little shopping. Loved the look and vibe of this place would be great for brunch or dinner. Ordered the guac that was made table side and looked really. Ute but was extremely plain and bland. The drinks were good my tacos were okay but bf loved his burrito. Will fire be back! They had a private event in one of the front patio areas that would be cute for a girls dinner!

Tasty food and nice atmosphere. Their drinks are also really good. They are usually very busy, make sure to make a reservation in advance.

I'll have to say, this is the most disappointing restaurant I've been to in a while. The food was not good, came out room temp or cold. The kids menu "taquitos" were just cold rolled up tortillas with dried up bits of chicken. The enchiladas were not enchiladas at all, but the same cold, rolled up tortillas with some room temp sauces. I understand this isn't meant to be an authentic Mexican restaurant by any means, but this was just awful. Staff was nice though and the place was clean. However, they did forget our chips until the end of the meal and they never refilled my drink. Eeeeek! I wanted to like it too!

Great food overall although I can't believe they use tilapia for their fish tacos. Other choices were good. Service great, great ambiance. A few vegan and vegetarian options. Great drinks and great happy hour.

Very yummy food. Good service and fun atmosphere. Definitely would love to come back.

The food and the service was excellent. The servers were very attentive and the food was absolutely delicious and very authentic Mexican food. Great location the restaurant is very big and spacious.

This place is awesome. I'm not really a fan of Beverly Hills in general but this place is fantastic. Really great bar huge TV for sports excellent food the skirt steak Arracherra was absolutely great strongly recommend.

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).

Great service, cool atmosphere, delicious food, highly recommend! Relatively affordable considering it's in Beverly.

OK, let's get this out of the way, this place isn't cheap. It's Beverly Hills, after all. But man! I LIKED this upscale Mexican cantina. The Margaritas, especially the Spicy, were yummy. Definitely get the guacamole, prepared table side. My pulpo (octopus) taco was delicious, but didn't stay in the tortilla. The skirt steak was excellent. Note: the steak can be a taco or a meal. Be sure your server knows what you want. This would make a great happy hour spot or a great dinner or lunch spot.

This place is amazing! The staff is always nice and welcoming. The vibe and food here is amazing. Been back here like 4 times and it's over a 1 hr 45 mins drive for us from our home. So worth it :)

We sat outside on a cold night and we were the only ones out there. I was concerned because sometimes you get ignored when you're out there this was not the case. They all checked on us constantly We'd been there dozens of times and the food and service was exceptional as always.

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.

Delicious, high-end Mexican food, interesting cocktails, and a really cool ambiance. I have been here several times and I am never disappointed. This is a solid choice for BH dining.

Quick stop after shopping and pleasantly surprised. Best ceviche and excellent happy hour!

Cantina Frida is an amazing place. The food test delicious. The staff are very friendly. The Drinks are delicious. Beautiful Ambiance. Can't wait to be back soon.

We had a wonderful dinner. Service was excellent. We loved be the table side guacamole. The chicken mole negro was so delicious. It was like have dinner and desert at the same time.

Gr8 happy hour outside or at the Bar. Chicken & Mashed potato hard shell tacos are a must

I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. The food is delicious. The menu offers many varied choices. The presentation is beautiful. The service is impeccable. The ambience is inviting. The staff is friendly and accommodating. My favorite!!!

Great restaurant! The atmosphere was fun, upscale, yet casual. The service was amazing. So many people came to attend to our needs without being annoying. The food was incredible. Very well-made good ingredients large portions. The cocktails are amazing and the fried ice cream was so good with lots of berries! I highly recommend this place we are definitely coming back.

The food and service were great as usual! While the restaurant was packed, our table for 7 was ready for us. We were celebrating a birthday and our waiter made it a special occasion. Thank you!

This restaurant is either a hit or miss. Food is not consistent. Some of the waiters have a bit of attitude and not accommodating. Only use this restaurant as your last result.

Stumbled upon this place while looking for a good dinner spot after spending a few hours at the Century City Mall with my fiancé. We're both vegetarian so we decided to get nachos and cheese enchiladas with green sauce. Both items were incredible and we will definitely be back. Pretty busy on a Friday night and the TV is huge. The staff was very friendly too! Parked at a nearby parking garage (tons in BH).

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.

Service was fantastic. Our server was very attentive as well as the other ones that served us. The verde sauce was the best one for sure. We also got a very nice salsa with our tacos. My friends chicken mole was very delicious too! Would recommend 10/10.

Hosted my staff Christmas party tonight and Luis was amazing. The entire staff was so helpful. Totally enjoyed my evening.

The service was amazing, our servers came by often to check on us to see if we needed anything. The food came quick and it was hot and delicious! My favorite was the guacamole, they come and make it table side and it's huge!

Amazing service, Yeah, Pablo was an incredible server. The food was over the top and we had a wonderful evening. Thank you Pablo again. Wendy

Beautiful space with great food. Love that they have good vegan options and let you choose between corn or flour tortillas. I had the vegan cauliflower taco and it was delicious.

Excellent food, great atmosphere and friendly staff. This is one of my go to Mexican restaurants here in Beverly Hills. It is consistently excellent and the price is extremely reasonable! I have tried several different dishes here and all are very delicious!

Had a great time at Cantina Fridas. Great food, drinks and beautiful ambience. Great bar with tv to watch the Dodger game. I highly recommend this place.

Amazing service I can't say anything bad about this place thanks so much to Nathan for being high class! I haven't ever had a good dining experience on rodeo drive until now thanks to Nathan!!! Please give this man a raise this place NEEDS him!

Came here for girls night as friends had recommended. It was nothing short of yummy food, chic atmosphere & just the right amount of service. Loved that our evening & will be back!

Love this place! Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, or pescatarian- there's an option for you. Drinks and desserts are solid too. The atmosphere is cozy and on some nights there's live music and on others everyone is watching the game. It's a great atmosphere and fun dinner/drinks spot.

Came back in November Francisco is amazing! He's so easy to talk to and took care of us! Drinks are food and happy hour menu is to check! I also did the regular menu before and can't beat fajitas
