If I could say one thing about Café Frida that I found particularly out-of-this-world good, it would have to be the carnitas taco. The first bite into that pillowy piece of heaven was like a tangy yet savory flavor explosion in my mouth and the pure definition of a foodgasm. Although the four other tacos that I ordered (the tinga, beef, chorizo, and cochinitas) were amazing as well, they all paled in comparison to the carnitas, and I feel bad knowing that it might have influenced my decision in not giving it a perfect review.
If I had to choose between Café Frida and Café Mezcal solely based on tacos, Café Frida would win hands down. Their tacos are bigger and way more satisfying and filling in every way possible, although it has a much more limited menu in comparison to Mezcal. However, I would 100% come back again for another five taco feast - except next time, I'll probably just order those carnitas since I will never stop raving about them.
