Delicious Mexican food in an upscale classy setting. When first entering the restaurant, we immediately noticed how beautifully it was designed; Modern, classy and bright. The atmosphere truly set the vibe for our dinner. The staff was extremely attentive and friendly. We ordered the table side guacamole and it was delicious, would recommend! We were all pleased with what we ordered. The dishes are masterfully crafted. The chicken mole was a touch dry but had exceptional flavor. The ceviche was fresh and tasted great. This was our first time here but we’ll certainly be back again.

This was my first time dining at Frida Mexican Cuisine in Torrance, and I’m already planning my return visit! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, with beautiful décor that felt both upscale and authentically Mexican. But what truly made our experience unforgettable was our incredible server, Frank. Frank was absolutely phenomenal! Friendly, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He took the time to walk us through the different dishes and explain what made them special. We were a bit overwhelmed by all the delicious-sounding options, but Frank’s recommendations were spot on. He clearly has a passion for the food and genuinely wanted us to enjoy our experience. Now let me talk about the drinks! I ordered the Adelita Margarita and ended up ordering it twice because it was that good. It had the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and smooth, with a fresh citrus flavor that made it dangerously easy to sip. Highly recommend it if you like a refreshing and well-crafted cocktail! Overall, the food, drinks, ambiance, and especially Frank’s top-tier service made this a standout experience. If you’re in the South Bay and looking for amazing Mexican food with a touch of elegance and hospitality that goes above and beyond, Frida in Torrance is a must visit. Fingers crossed I get Frank again next time!
