Superica
– “where sunshine spends the winter” – also known as Tex-Mex cuisine served in an Old-West-inspired atmosphere alongside music inspired by Austin.

The cuisine is a combination of 1950s Tex-Mex and the wood grill that has taken the food to another level by way of fajitas and more. An “evolved Tex-Mex menu,” includes the classics: tacos, nachos, tamales and enchiladas plus more intricate dishes such as wood-grilled fajitas and shrimp tacos always served with just-made flour tortillas, all while paying homage to the traditions and recipes that have been a part of the Texas culture for decades.

    Asked our waitress/server for straws, as well as another employee after 10-15 minutes we had to ask the hostess for some. Also had ordered drinks that were meant to be frozen but received them on the rocks, was still delicious but didn’t want to throw a fit or make a big deal about it but now have a reason to come back to try them frozen!

    We had a reservation for my birthday for a table of 8. We did not get seated for 25 minutes, and they offered our table one guac or queso due to the delay. The guac was very small with maybe 8 chips total, so it didn’t really make up for the delay. Our server was pretty impersonal too. Food was good. Not the best fajitas I’ve had, but still pretty good. Salsa with the chips was good too. I don’t know if I would go back because I saw some similar reviews about wait time and service, and that was subpar for my experience too.

    The food and drinks at Superica never disappoint, and our server was fantastic. He handled a group of 13 with class and speed. Had to give him an additional tip. The noise level in Superica needs attention. One of my guests had to leave because the volume of the entire restaurant was bouncing off the walls and she got a migraine. It kind of felt like we had just left a concert when we exited the building. Love, love, love this place for the vibes, the food, and the service, but the noise level definitely made some folks last-time customers.

    We dined at LaLucha next door first for appetizers and drinks. We were celebrating my Sister’s Birthday and the fried chicken, biscuits and fries did not disappoint. The Best fried chicken we’ve eaten at a restaurant. We had dinner at Superica and I absolutely loved the ginger margarita and chicken fajitas. Very tasty and good! Will definitely be back at both restaurants.

    8 of us for lunch. Queso and nachos were good. Tortilla soup was tasty but would have liked thicker broth. Rice, beans, enchilada very good. Others liked tacos, tacos al carbon, other items. Server Kimberly was very good.

    The dips provided with the chips are the best part! I will go just for the salsas! Margaritas are good, but not too strong. Alittle pricey for slower service, but worth a try at least once.
