Who's Frida?
Frida's is St. Louis' vegetarian restaurant serving vegan, raw, low glycemic, gluten and oil free options. While we have a standard menu from you to choose, we also have a custom menu that allows you to choose ingredients for sandwiches, smoothies and juice. Our concept is to provide the healthiest food possible without compromising taste and satiation. Whether you are a carnivore that is seeking to eat a few more fruits and veggies, someone that follows a low glycemic lifestyle or a raw foodist, we have something for you.
So, who is Frida? My cat, of course. Hey, Natasha here, I'm so glad to finally have a deli that encompasses the foods I can stand behind and feel good about making and serving. I spent a lot of my youth in rural communities in MO and IL and decided at the age of nine, meat was not for me. To my parent's surprise, it was not a phase. After a 17+ year marketing career specializing in event marketing and consumer product goods geared to the nightlife industry as well as a 20+ years in and out of working in restaurants and bars (I couldn't stay away, really), I have followed my passion for health and food and opened Frida's in July 2012. Rather than just being a vegetarian restaurant, we are a health food restaurant. We use whole foods, we sprout, and we never use butter. We believe in clean eating and that's why we don't have a fryer or a microwave and we don't even roast with oil. We even press all of our sandwiches in parchment so you don't get greasy hands or unwanted and unneeded fat in your meal. We make healthy just a little bit healthier!
Big hug!
