We had dinner at Frida Cocina Mexicana at Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour. The setting is casual and unpretentious — more of a laid-back lunch spot, but it worked fine for a relaxed evening meal. Service was friendly and very quick, which we appreciated. The frozen margarita was refreshing, and the food was tasty and came out fast. Overall, it’s a nice place if you’re looking for a simple, quick, and satisfying Mexican meal in a central location.

Prime location, food is so so. Suitable for work gather or groups. It’s a little pricey but understandable due to location rent and costs etc but you will be sitting right in front of water which is nice. I won’t go into detail about the food because it’s somewhere between acceptable and not bad…, will leave it to your own judgment.

My go to Mexican restaurant in Auckland! I am originally from Texas where Mexican food is amazing so it’s really difficult to impress me but Frida tastes amazing every time! I usually get their carnitas tacos. They are also the only place I’ve found so far that actually has a margarita machine! Love their frozen watermelon margaritas. Only thing that I don’t enjoy there is their rice, but that’s fine by me!

The food was amazing!!! Packed with flavour and culture it really felt like I was on vacation. Dessert and drinks were also just as amazing and staff were all friendly and attentive!!!

Food was amazing, coming from Latin America and living in Australia this is so far one of the best Mexican restaurants in this side of the world I have tried. The pork belly was beautifully cooked and birria tacos were made with corn as promised. Actually quite surprised it doesn’t have better reviews, maybe people is not used to authentic Mexican cuisine and are more into the tex mex stuff???

In summarise the food did not convince me. That staff was very friendly, it was fast to serve, the location is very nice. But because this is a restaurant and food matters, I can not give more than 3 stars.

Vergílio Tonelo (☆ 3/5)

Went here with a colleague for dinner while we were in Auckland for work. I enjoy Mexican so we thought we would give this place a try. Lovely staff - all really attentive. The wine was nice and we got served a lot of food the price really - however the flavour did lack a little for a Mexican restaurant if I’m honest. I did enjoy mine to an extent, it was all fresh and served very quickly which was good - but I likely wouldn’t dine here again unfortunately. Located in a great spot for people watching though and the cocktails did look good!
