Frida’s is a Mexican restaurant, bar and cafe at 31 Albert Embankment, overlooking the Thames near Vauxhall. Inspired by the colour and creative spirit associated with Frida Kahlo, it combines a rustic interior, river views and a lively atmosphere for casual meals, drinks and celebrations.
Tacos, burritos and quesadillas form the core of the food, with fillings that range from garlic mushrooms and vegetables to chicken, pork and spicy pulled beef. Fresh salsa, guacamole, rice, beans, cheese and slaw bring contrasting colour, texture and richness to each plate.
Nachos, wings and sharing dishes are useful for groups, while salads and clearly represented vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices broaden the selection. Desserts offer a sweet finish after the stronger savoury flavours, allowing the menu to suit anything from a quick bite to a complete dinner.
Tequila, frozen margaritas, micheladas and other Mexican inspired cocktails give the bar its energetic character. The riverside outlook, occasional live music and space for private occasions make Frida’s particularly suited to social evenings, while takeaway and delivery add flexibility for local diners.
