As a san diego native, I have very high expectations of mexican food. So don't let me yuck your yum. The portions for sheimp cocktail was good and I like their chips. But the flautus were really small. And the salsa was not spicy. It also takes awhile to get food. read more

A great hole in the wall with reasonable prices, decent happy hour and very good food. They don't have many tables and a few bar seats. The service is always attentive and quick. We ordered the happy hour margs and carnitas tacos. The camarone tacos with chipotle sauce, guacamole, and a crab tostada. The tostada was my favorite hands down. But I bet you can't go wrong with anything you order. Love coming here for a nice chill (and inexpensive) meal. read more

If I could give triple hundred thousands of negative stars. They honestly close. Ordered 4 tacos, waited 40 minutes for no tacos to arrive. There were about 10 people inside. Close the doors ! Whoever owns this business should find a new profession, this place blows. read more

The waiter with red short hair is one of the most rude people I've ever spoken to. Don't have more to say.

I got to the restaurant at 6:59PM and didn't receive my food until 7:48PM. The only thing I order was a quesadilla which to my surprise was not a quesadilla it was more of an empanada it was tiny. So if you're looking to get full, this is not the meal to get. The service was super slow. I honestly would not come here again. read more

Nice spot for drinks with authentic Mexican food, I was told it was only cash but to my surprise they were taking cards as well, which was great because is not cheap. We paid $160 for 2 people for a few drinks, 2 appetizers and 2 tacos. The Lengua tacos were Yummy but for $6 each I was expecting much more than a few pieces in a smaller than usual tortilla, really small, kids size small. Service and ambiance on the other hand was great, very friendly servers and good music selection, I would recommend for drinks and snacking but not for dinner. The place is small as well so probably not ideal for big groups. We had the crab tostada, pata tostada, and lengua tacos, everything tasted good, but again for the price I would have expected much better quality/portions. However yes we will go again for drinks with friends. read more

La Superior - Crab Tostada - Mexican Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Tried a couple of things here today which were pretty hit or miss. The guyaba margarita was great - it was well balanced and I loved the hint of heat. The cebollitas were super yummy too - especially when you squeeze a little lime on them. The tacos were just sad. Neither the carne asada or the shrimp had much flavor. Their paloma was also really syrupy. Regardless, it's a solid neighborhood spot to grab a drink - and they have decent outdoor seating, which is nice. I'd come back for the cebollitas alone. read more

Great food, perfect service. The restaurant had a real movie feel for some reason. Dark, moody but a perfect place to hang with friends. Carne asada tacos were okay (had tomatoes which isn't my vibe), wish the chicken was a little more shredded, and the carnitas were good but not fantastic. I did see a review that said the guacamole was to die for and they were not lying. I would come back just for that. read more

There's something in a name and in this case the name tells you exactly what you're going to get; a superior product. So tacos are definitely my love language and all tacos are not created equally so I'm kinda picky about where my tacos come from. I was on a date at nearby Domino Park and looked into this spot. Our server Masha was super sweet, introduced herself , shared a little of her history with the restaurant and made great recommendations. We went with a variety of tacos that included: the fish, garlic shrimp, spicy pulled chicken. While those were being made, we started with the guacamole and chips. I don't know all the ingredients that was in that salsa but Baybee when I tell you that thing had a kick to it. Even the Jamaican in me couldn't fully handle it. It was giving 50 Jamaican hot peppers. When we did get the tacos, the fish was super fresh and tasteful. The shrimps were all garlicky and succulent and while the chicken wasn't as loved and was super messy ( which I don't like)- everything was good. Bae had a Modello and I had the guava flavored margarita minus the spice. We left their on a high. Really great service, amazing food and vibes. I had only one gripe- Idk who was in control of the playlist was but it sounded like a bad American Idol contestant. Besides that, nothing to complain about. Do keep in mind they are CASH ONLY! They do have a roadside ATM that is $2 if you feel like choosing violence. When you're done, grab icecrean at Oddfellows down the street. Enjoy! read more

Ok this is an ambitious call but these are my favorite tacos in NYC. It has tons of classic Mexican street food, like tacos & flautas with amazing ambience and a no fuss meal. Be prepared with cash tho! 10/10 recommend read more

Surprised this is 3.5, because we had a great meal here! Complaints I have are small portions for tacos - like little stuff is inside the taco. Could be a heavier taco. The rajas tacos was really good and unique! The sauce is awesome. The fish taco was ok. The Guac and chips were to die for. Some of the best Guac I've ever had in my life. The chips are thick and have a great crunch. Outside seating. Service was fine. Cash only which is a little annoying. read more

The service was extremely slow. My party was seated quickly, and drink orders were taken quickly but super slow to come. I watched 4 tables that were seated after me get their drinks and food first. I even asked my server about our drink order, and he just blew me off, saying they were coming. My boyfriend's food came before our drinks came. SMH. Very disappointing. When the drinks finally did come, the server wasn't even apologetic he kind of just plopped them down and walked off. So we got the fried fish tacos, and they were doused in hot sauce. So as his mouth was on fire, he had only the room temp water they gave us. It appeared like they had more than enough workers considering the size of the establishment, so I'm not sure what the problem was. I got the chicken quesadilla, which was more like an empenada. It was very underwhelming. The one plus side was that the table next to us was given 2 rounds of shots by the table mext to them and they gave us a round and the girl said please enjoy I know your drinks took a while..... wow, even they noticed yet not our server. When paying the check, after our server ignored us, another nice young man came over to help and asked how everything was, and I responded truthfully. He was very apologetic, which is why they are getting any stars at all. Maybe it was just an off night for them, but I'm not sure. Best of luck to them. I don't live in BK, so I won't be back, but hopefully, things improve. read more

Craving margaritas and tacos? Then give this place a try. They have a good amount of outdoor seating but it does fill up during peak times. My to go tos are the tamarind margarita (4.5/5), the shrimp tacos (5/5) and the cheese fondue (4/5). The cheese fondue is a great quantity/price ratio. The shrimp tacos are so delicious, and the tamarind margarita has the best taste IMO. Enjoy! read more

Grade A for Amazing tacos and tortillas. Perfect for a late night snack !! They are open late.

Taco heaven. Loved this hole in the wall spot. The tacos were amazing and the serving team were hustling to keep up with everyone. We tried the chipotle shrimp, fried fish, steak and chicken tacos -- nothing disappointed and came packed with flavor. The chips were crispy and the guacamole came with lots of veggies diced up beautifully. If torn between the small and large Margarita go with the large, they are good. Protip - CASH only read more

TL;DR This place has mediocre food and unfriendly service. Recommend: No. Came w/ a group of friends for dinner. A few of them showed up later and the staff wasn't happy about it. Understandable, except the way they handled it was extremely unprofessional: Waiter gave us salty looks when we ordered food, manager made passive-aggressive remarks as he took one of our tables ("This is what our culture does when your party doesn't show up on time"), to name a few. I get that they weren't happy that part of our group was late. But that's not the right way to treat customers at all, in any case. Unprofessional and inexcusable. As for the food, it was okay. We ordered a variety of tacos, most of which were bland and not properly seasoned. Also got quesadillas, which were more like oversized fried dumplings (and like the tacos, not seasoned well.) The one positive was the guac. Very flavorful and paired nicely with their tortilla chips. Overall, my experience at La Superior was lackluster at best. I'm less bothered by the food and more so by the way their staff treated me and my friends. If they really don't like partially seated tables, then they should've made us wait until everyone showed up. That's reasonable for busy restaurants in NYC. But don't give us a table in advance and then act salty in front of us all night. Again, unprofessional to the fullest. Will go to one of the many delicious taco trucks in the area instead of La Superior next time I'm in Williamsburg. read more

This spot is such a taco gem! Found it by accident, just walking by the door was open and it smelled amazing. They have a bunch of different taco options with some well know tacos and others a bit more creative. I went with one Taco de Don Luis (citrus chicken and a spicy avocado sauce) and one carnitas taco. The tacos aren't very large but have a ton of meat on them. The Taco de Don Luis was amazing. So flavorful, the chicken cooked perfectly. I could have ordered a dozen! The carnitas was okay, just a tiny bit dry, it came with a sauce to fix that so it was good overall. read more

Years ago this was The Place. But over the years service had a bunch of ups and downs and the quality was always either out of this world or in a word: bad. It no doubt has to do with the sheer amount of customers they see in a night. When all is right here, this is one of the best and most affordable taco options in Brooklyn. But when all is wrong it really is a bad time, made all the more confusing because of all the amazing times you've had here. So I'll say this, if you've been once and were let down go again, on a more quiet night, order a bunch of different menu items, and find your favorites. I am partial to the steak tacos, Alambre des Res, and the rajas. read more

La superior where? I love AUTHENTIC tacos. But if i was to rate the worse tacos in the world it would be from here. I ordered Camarones Al chipotle tacos, i was looking forward to trying it out. I was severely disappointed to see the scarce taco in front of my face. I was convinced it was a joke. The taste wasn't any better, it was completely bland. It tasted gentrified. I know for a fact these tacos aren't remotely close to authentic. The shrimp was lazily thrown on a tortilla. The taco shown in the picture was untouched, that's how it was presented. A straight joke read more

I don't really write reviews but I would give a zero star if I could. The food was meh and their service was terrible (esp. our server Theresa). She never checked on us to see if we needed anything and when we asked which tacos were which after they arrived since everyone had ordered different menu, she said with an attitude "it's served as family style" repeatedly. Which then we had to re-read the menu description and transfer the tacos between plates. Also she seemed very bothered when we asked for more chips and pico (as if we weren't paying for them). And to top that off, when we got our bill it had a 20% gratuity added saying that we're a part of 5 (we were a party of 4). We so politely asked in this exact wording, "we were just curious if the gratuity was automatically added for a party of 4". She snapped quickly and said that's how it's been since pandemic and that we should not be coming out if we didn't want to tip. She came off so rude and aggressive and left us speechless. Who said we won't tip you and what a way to ruin our dinner! While I totally agree on tipping restaurant workers generously during pandemic, that doesn't mean you can show up to work with "too good for this" attitude. Hope the management realizes that servers the face to your establishment and they can make or break the dining experience. read more

Really great quality food! The flavors are amazing and stand out for each item. The prices are mixed, leaning to pricier. A lot of taco options, with veggie tacos as well.

Tried this place on a Tuesday night. Not many people around when we arrived at 7. By the time we were leaving, the place was packed with a wait. To start off, I wasn't overly impressed by the timing of the food coming to the table. It all kid of came out at once. I guess it's nice because it isn't sitting under a heat lamp somewhere In The kitchen. We tried 3 different kinds of tacos - the chicken Tinga, carnitas and fish. They were all very delicious. The sauce that comes with the tacos is a nice compliment. I found it a little spicy but not too bad. We also got the chorizo and potato quesadilla and the mushroom quesadilla. Both were very tasty. Not like regular quesadillas, but they explained that to us when we ordered so we knew what to expect. I would defiantly return to this place, when I'm back in the neighborhood! read more

Ambiance was fine, we could comfortably sit outdoors which was nice because yesterday was a beautiful day. We got drinks which ended up being okay and a couple friends ordered food and from what we tasted it was good but one waiter in particular was not having a good day and was rude to us so we decided to cut our stay short.

People that have written this place has great authentic Mexican cuisine, have probably never had good Mexican food. We stopped to have tacos outside, there was 4 of us, we spent 93$ for 9 tacos, 1 guacamole to share and 4 Modelo cans. The guy at the counter was pissed off at the world for whatever reason, when my friend asked if he could have 2 glasses of water, he replied (and i quote): "so you only want 2? Tell me now cause i don't want to have to go back again to get other glasses of water". Are you serious?! And this was also after we tipped! You would hope that at least it's worth it cause the food is amazing? Think again. Skip this place and eat somewhere else read more

Their margaritas are always top knot here. Their tacos are small but always amazing!

Worst food poisoning of my life food was good but not worth feeling like I was dying for hours after. Be careful!

I am not sure where any negative reviews come from but this place is fire. I don't leave yelp reviews but I had to for this spot. The ceviche is literally the best I've ever had in my life. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. It was a dope vibe and not packed on a Friday night which was a plus. The music was mad chill and not too loud so we could still have conversation. I would highly recommend. read more

See below picture. Just an awful, rude experience. It's clear they don't give a f*ck anymore about customer service or consistency. But who knows--you might get lucky and catch them in a good mood, have a decent taco. Mine looked and tasted like trash. The presentation of these tacos (I opened the box two blocks away and had been carrying it upright) is an accurate representation to how I was treated by staff. Bye bye Superior- see you never. read more
