    Vegan Burrito Soya Pastor
    Holly K.

    I've been going to Super Cuca's for years and am glad they've fully developed a vegan menu! This is a great place for vegans and non vegans! My boyfriend (not vegan) got the soya beef in his California Burrito and couldn't believe it was vegan. He went back and got another California Burrito with animal meat, and confirmed that the soya beef was better than the animal meat version!! Wohoo!! He credited the texture and seasoning. I like what I got & appreciate the variety of veggies. Food is delicious & affordable. Service is quick. There is covered outdoor seating, but extremely limited parking. Super Cuca's is inside/shared space with a small market. Red & green salsa included!

    Super Burrito with chicken
    Erika V.

    Five stars, because they didn't do anything wrong, but I wouldn't say this is one of my favorite burrito spots. I tried the super burrito with chicken for the first time, and though I prefer shredded chicken, it was still delicious. Maybe next time I'll ask no onions. I had this delivered via Uber Eats, but I have walked by the establishment and it looks super welcoming and clean.

    Vegan Super Nachos and Vegan Burrito Soya Pastor
    Alina H.

    I enjoyed the vegan Mexican food here was delicious. You get a lot of flavorful food very fresh for a reasonable price. The salsa and chips on the nachos were great and the potatoes inside the burrito were yummy.

    #1 Chorizo Burrito

    Super Cucas absolutely saved our rainy day. We ordered two breakfast burritos and both were generously sized, flavorful, and clearly made fresh. The chorizo burrito was mucho bueno. The veggie burrito was also delicious and hearty, but my one tiny complaint: surprise celery made an unexpected appearance. If celery had been listed, I would've asked for it without... I'm just not emotionally prepared for crunchy plot twists in my breakfast burrito. We'll absolutely be back, but next time with a very specific "no celery please" note.

    Huuuuge burrito! Sooo good. I love Mexican places like this. I seek them out everywhere I go. This one hit the spot with the hometown Cali burrito. Highly recommend and honestly a fantastic price for how large this thing is

    It seems like every person I chatted with in Santa Barbara was familiar with Super Cucas, so I'm hoping I just came at an off day? The food, while having massive portion sizes, just simply didn't hit for us. We tried a few different things, but nothing was standout, and overall the food felt as though it was lacking in flavor and quality. The asada tacos were a bit of a mess, and the quesadilla seemed to need a lot more things in it. The carnitas super burrito was decent, but not amazing. Not terrible, but just had higher hopes than what we experienced!

    The food is outstanding but the screaming and yelling from the crew made sitting inside nearly impossible- glad they are happy but wow it's loud - the cashier was singing so loud and the kitchen was just whooping it up ;) just a little bit more peace please

    Chorizo Super Nachos
    Natalia B.

    Not bad. Not bad. Not bad at al. Plenty of meat on the 'chos, and there wasn't too much cheese to chow. I'm lactose intolerant now so honestly that was for the best.

    Dry chicken. Soggy nachos

    Wow that was awful! I got chicken nachos. Chicken dry as hell. Beans from a can and they didn't even melt the cheese to make it nachos. Chips so soggy. Not recommended.

    Carnitas Burrito Breakfast
    Olive M.

    You have to try the carnitas breakfast burrito! It's everything a breakfast burrito should be - big, hot, and filling! Eggs, cheese, carnitas, and potatoes all come together beautifully. My only complaint is that I paid $1 extra to add beans, and there were barely any in my burrito. Other than that, would definitely recommend!

    Hmmm..... Where to start!?!…read more It was cool watching all the cooks in the open kitchen, the staff looked happy and I was so impressed with the scale of business coming out of such a small kitchen. I did notice that workers were going back and forth to a house nextdoor picking up stuff-- cooked food, veggies and such... The restaurant itself is pretty cute-- open seating inside, nice outdoor seating. The older gent who took my order was sweet and kind. I was looking so forward to this place. But sadly, it simply wasn't worth the wait or cost. This is a picture the remaining portions---yes we ate most of it because we chose to not eat ANYTHING before getting there and the hungry anticipation took over--- we really tried to like the food, but it was just not great. #1 beef taco-- on the white plate--dry dry dry. No flavor. Just dried out beef jerky shavings on a tortilla. Didn't eat it. #18 Julia child's favorite --on Black plates- weird pork meat with crunchy peppers, and globs of melted cheese-- not great. Over-hyped. No flavor, no sauce, pork was soft, had no chew- it was strange. We had a special tamale item on the banana leaf. Chicken mole-- way too sweet, no sauce on top, and somehow it was super wet-- moist and too soft. We ordered a chili releno, but the guy didn't hear, so we didn't taste that-- I asked for some of the crema that comes with it and was charged 75¢ for a small 1oz portion-- tasted like hot cream. Watery and lacking body. No flavor. Cinnamon coffee was served in tiny cups-- super hot, no cream. Asked for cream-- and one of the guys said " no cream" was rude and wasn't interested in helping ---we only got one lid, so I mentioned that there is no way to carry scalding hot coffee with no lid-- someone finally brought the smallest amount of milk. Old coffee with cinnamon stick flavor-- not even good. Guacamole was really sad. Super whipped smooth shinny avocado with tons of pico in it. No citrus, no salt, just crunchy pico-- zero avocado chunks or flavor. The avocado is served on and with fresh tortillas -- the tortillas were great, but they are served with everything, so it felt like a waste. NO LIMES!! The salsas were decent. But NO LIMES!!! Negro Modelo especial beers were ice cold, refreshing and delicious-- the beers had limes. We paid $68 for the food and drinks- I left $10 for a tip. I don't really feel like this was authentic Mexican food at all. I am not sure what to call it. It seemed like it has been "gringo'ed" down-- no heat, no chiles, no spice, no flavor, no limes, no love. Glad I can mark this joint off the list.

The pulpo was perfectly cooked--tender with a great char and packed with flavor. The chicken mole was rich, balanced, and deeply satisfying, with that classic complex mole flavor that keeps you going back for another bite. What really stood out, though, was the service. It was phenomenal from start to finish--attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming without ever feeling rushed. The staff clearly care about the experience they're giving guests.

The food then came out 15 minutes later however one of the five items was the wrong entrée, and the rest of the items did not have.the right modifications. I believe the order wasn't put in at the time we ordered. We did not mention the modifications and were also missing a item that we did not tell the server about the second time around which is why I think the order wasn't placed originally:/ they did comp a dessert, but we were so full from the delicious food that we didn't eat it. Overall I would go. Back. Staff was friendly, and food was good, mistakes happen. Side note there was some "partying" happening in the restroom so if you go with your family don't let them go unattended.
