PASEO ARTS DISTRICT
FRIDA southwest
It is no coincidence that FRIDA southwest sits at 500 Paseo, located in the most treasured historic Paseo Arts District. We celebrate nature, culture, art, and the flavors of Oklahoma, Santa Fe, and northern Mexico through exquisitely executed cuisine, crafted from the finest locally-sourced ingredients.
Join us for an unforgettable dining experience that blends art, culture, and culinary excellence.
