Frida’s Place — Restaurant in Lake Elsinore

I was honestly so excited to try this place out. I just moved into the area and wanted an athletic place in my rotation. Nothing gives me more joy than to introduce my family to places we can love and keep coming back to. It gave off home cooked food with a great atmosphere. My experience left a lot to be desired. There is no seating arrangement, it's a first come first served, which has people hovering over tables. The wait was an hour and a half, for ok food. There was no organization in the kitchen nor the front staff. After we ordered at 11:27, they called number 54, our number was 66, did not get called until 12:45, not to mention they trickled the food to our table. My husband liked his quesobirria and said it was good. The pozole was way too salty, the broth had a strong tomato taste and I ordered chicken, they gave me pork. The quesadilla was ok. The passion fruit agua fresca was delicious. The food portion where fair for what we paid. The organization at this place was horrendous. It's like a food truck trying to be a restaurant, it's just not working. This was my first and last...

Went to the mariachi festival at a local park and was craving street tacos. I'm so happy I found this place. As I arrived I was doubtful because it doesn't look appealing since it's very small and next to a market you can almost miss it. Very small parking lot and the sign is not very visible. It does not look like a restaurant at all. Small place with about 3 tables inside and 2 tables outside. Do not let any of this discourage you from trying the food. You will not be disappointed. The food is great and even better the prices are beyond fair. The workers are really nice and welcoming. My kids and I couldn't stop saying how good the street tacos were. Best we've ever had!! We tried the chicken, pastor and asada tacos with red and green sauce. The meat was cooked so perfectly and the tacos had enough meat. Both of the hot salsas were delicious. I liked their napkin holder and salt shaker. Cool painted walls. Good music is played too. Go try them out you will not be...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Frida’s is such a gem! The Guadalajara-style food was absolutely delicious. We tried the ceviche, carne asada tacos, shrimp cocktail, and the rice and beans — everything was so flavorful. I have to give a special shout-out to the beans — they tasted just like my Nana’s, so comforting and authentic.

The outdoor seating added to the charm. It was warm, but honestly, it felt like part of the experience — like we were somewhere in Mexico, soaking in the vibe. The ambiance was super cute and inviting.

Don’t skip the agua frescas either — they were so refreshing and the perfect complement to the meal.

If you’re craving truly authentic Mexican food with a outdoor setting, Frida’s is a...
