Reviews for Frita Batidos Detroit in Detroit, MI
We ordered catering for Halloween today, and it was excellent. The meats are so flavorful and tender, and everything was... delicious. We got the create your own sandwich bar with 2 meats - chicken and ropa vieja - both yummy. The beef is sweet andsavory and the chicken is spicy and in a green sauce; both slow-cooked to perfection. We also had plantains both ways - fried ascrisps with avocado spread and shrimp ceviche, and twice fried - sweet with an herby garlic sauce. I highly recommend the shrimpceviche - it was absolutely perfect, and what I'd order just for myself next time! The crispy plantains are so addictive andsalty sweet. Yum! We also had the "best snack ever" which is this cheesy, tomato-ey rice and beans. Very good. Lastly, we hadthe mini churros which were pretty great - they arrived still warm! They look and taste pretty much like cinnamon sugar donutholes. We didn't get the chocolate dipping sauce this time, but I bet it takes those over the top. The mayos that come with thesetup were delicious as well - no complaints on food or service - everything was great. Communication was open and clear anddelivery was right on time. Looking forward to ordering again and stopping in myself as well! Read more
Very great food. The loaded plantains were really loaded! Seasonal Cubano Coffee was on the sweet side.
We went for a late lunch and got there just as a game was getting out at Comerica park, but surprisingly there weren't many... people in here (people were probably full of whatever they ate and drank at the game, or it was just that it was between lunchand dinner). The atmosphere was nice with the "white and wood" décor. We sat inside at one of the long, picnic style tableswhich had a center covey for water with cups, and sauces. The food was really great, and I appreciated the "authentic"ginger-line drink in a bag with a straw. Even though you order at the counter and seat yourself, they checked that everythingwas good, and cleared our (disposable) plates when we were done. This is a great pick for downtown. Read more
A true hidden gem! The chorizo burger was the best burger I've ever had in my life. The food is so good here I can't stop... thinking about it. The fishbowl drinks are massive and are a very good value, they're enough for 4 people at least! Amazingservice and a hip interior. I recommend going here before a show as it's very close to the Fox and the Fillmore. Read more
First time here but won't be our last. This place is really great. Got the beef frita all the way and added bacon and also got... the loaded plantains along with a margarita and a mojito. The drinks were very good made with fresh ingredients. The burger wasgreat even if I had to eat it with a fork and knife cause it was so loaded and messy. I can't wait to come back and try theircuban sandwhich and other items on the menu. Read more
I ordered a Custom Chorizo Frita, Inspired Cuban, Churros Español, Fresh Lime Batido for carryout (Total $41). I loved my... Frita! With the fries + other added toppings, it's a very filling meal. The Lime Batido tasted sweet + sour (like key lime pie)which is one of my favorite flavors, and the Churros are huge + awesome! Easily shareable with 4-6 people. A critique is theyforgot my Batido. So, I had to wait for them to make it. Also, the Inspired Cuban had a sour taste with one of the meats..? Ittasted fine, but not pleasant. If it's your 1st time dining here, you'll need to find somewhere to park, since the restaurant isdown an alleyway. (I did not know this, but I made it there). Otherwise, good experience! Read more

A perfectly cooked burger with an excellent sauce, super thick bacon, and garlic fries that are to die for! Don?t skip the... batido either, they?re amazingly creamy and refreshing, Passionfruit is my favorite for sure. The staff is always super friendlyand it?s a must visit every time I?m downtown.
