Cantina bar Happy Hour and chips and salsa.
Lindzy G.

Came in walking the strip here on Greenleaf old town Whittier and stumbled across this restaurant gem called Super Mex. I ordered to drink a El Cantarito. It's so delicious it also has a very smooth taste to it not overpowering flavors and the tequila used for this is Teremana. I'll be honest this drink will definitely creep up on you if you have many to follow based on how smooth and refreshing this blend is. The music and atmosphere is perfect for nightlife and just time to hang with friends. The food is delicious and our service here is very attractive. Must try!!! I also had the OG Cadillac Margarita and it was very well made. Must try for a night with family and friends.

The family wanted mexican food so we decided to visit Super mex. The food was delicious and the quantity was enough to satisfy a big appetite. The staff was great and very inviting for our first visit. I would recommend Super max and will be back again.

The staff were super friendly and willing to assist. They were on point with 1-1 service. The food was buffet style. All you can eat. The banquet space was perfect for a special occasion. Plenty of room with round tables. They have a screen to show presentation.

If you're looking for a great spot that seamlessly blends warm hospitality, delectable cuisine, and a casual but lively ambiance with plenty of TV monitors , look no further than Super Mex. We came for Friday night dinner and took in the Dodger game, and we weren't disappointed. The staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive that set the tone for a great dinning experience. This was our first time here and the staff went over the menu, which added another layer of enjoyment to our dinning experience. The waitress brought us complimentary chips and salsa that were a great start. Now let's talk about the heart and soul of Super Mex, the food. The menu boasts of an array of classic Mexican cuisine that transported our tastebuds to various levels. Each dish we ordered was a culinary masterpiece with a perfect blend of flavors and textures that showcased management's commitment to quality and authenticity. In conclusion, Super Mex goes beyond just being a restaurant but an experience. It succeeded our expectations not only by satisfying our palates but created a long lasting impression of an amazing dinning experience. The spot is definitely a Chef driven culinary destination that has encouraged return visits. We'll be back with family and friends!!

Jasmine Mendez -very happy hostess and very efficient Thank you for your service...

Surprised and a bit bewildered.....?‍ Going to one of my go to's as I have been, for the very first time, it's like, I was feeling ghosted by every server....oh well. It is that month (October) I mean, the bartender (Margarita) at least showed interested and was taking my order but felt at the end, all fell short.... ALL in all, a shout goes out to Oscar (manager), for getting my table reserved...! Ty Oscar! Tonight was a night of short handed service at Super Mex....hope tomorrow will be a change... Have a good evening everyone...

super mex burrito had salad in it. It was only supposed to be lettuce. Just an fyi in case anyone is allergic to carrots or red cabbage.

The food was ok, but nothing great. The meat was dry. My friend had a salad with her meal and it was not fresh. It came out with red edges. It was old. The manager did come and replace her salad. When I got home and heat up my leftovers, I realized that they had used salad in my burrito. It was only supposed to be lettuce. I hate red cabbage. I won't be returning because all of our meals were not that great for the price we paid.

Receipt of my order.

I was driving home after a long stressful day and had the craving for some fajitas and decided to stop by Super Mex. This was a second chance visit for this place since the first dine in experience was 5/10, but I did enjoy the fajitas. Soon as I walked in through the take out door, it seemed really quiet and nobody was at the register. I figured they must be busy in the back. After a couple minutes I did start contemplating on leaving when an employee appeared to take my order. (The employee was polite and therefore, I did leave a cash tip) My order. *Chicken and steak fajitas. *An extra order of flower tortillas because when I asked, I was told my meal only came with 3 tortillas. *A plain beef tamale which I specifically told the employee, no sauce no cheese. When I got home and began unpacking our dinner I first realize that the plain tamale I ordered had both cheese and sauce. Next, I wasn't given my extra order of tortillas, which I did pay for. Then I'm diving through the already empty bag and none of the condiments that typically come with the order were included so no salsa, no guacamole, no pickled onions. Nada... I will not be giving this place a third chance.

Very well put Mexican restaurant. Food was amazing ! The cantarito drink at the Cantina was amazing !! Margarita the best server, very helpful and friendly ask for her ;)

I had my first meal at the enchanted indoor garden in Mami Felipa Cocina today…read more Food: The green chilaquiles did not disappoint. They were fresh, crunchy, with ample green tomatillo salsa that was flavorful, making for a very authentic bite. The beans were very good and complemented the chilaquiles perfectly. Authentic Mexican flavors showcased well. Service: The waitress was friendly, attentive, and joyfully answered my questions about the menu. I also asked about the traditional colorful head piece located behind glass next to the register and learned that it is a Chinelo, a traditional iconic carnival character from Morelos, Mexico. It is clear, the restaurant owners are proud of their heritage and are sharing it with everyone. Ambiance: The small but cozy restaurant features an incredibly vibrant, maximalist indoor garden vibe that immediately makes you feel like you are dining inside an enchanted greenhouse. Dense artificial greenery blankets the walls and ceiling. The cozy, casual neighborhood layout is packed with personality, featuring playful multicolored floral tablecloths, festive flags, and unique lived-in accents. It's an energetic setting for a lively meal.

This restaurant is in such an obscure location, I can't believe I was going to a Burrito Track across the street for so many years not knowing this place existed. Friendly staff and prompt service. The unfortunate negative is it's location and I'm referring to parking. There must be 8 business crammed into this lot. With a bar to the right and a laudermat on its left finding a parking spot is like winning the lotto. Now layer in one driveway and you have to make a 3 point turn just to navigate to leave. The short answer is I will absolutely go back to this place as long as there is a parking space to be had.

We came here because my cousin DJSP was the featured DJ this Sunday, so I did my Yelp research and to be honest, I didn't know what to expect because the most recent reviews were a couple of months old, no recent food photos and menu photos were outdated. However we were going either way because it was also our featured DJ's birthday. We made reservations but that was difficult too as we called for several days until someone actually answered the phone. I was a little surprised because the food we ordered were all pretty tasty, decent portions, and reasonably priced. The service was ok. Orders took a little time to arrive, but they made sure we had chips and salsa and with a full crowd and a limited number of wait staff, they made sure we were still being attended too. It is very loud here with a full restaurant of diners, the live DJ and football games going with loud cheering fans, so if you have sensitive hearing, bring some ear plugs.

Second server super helpful . I asked for the owner and apparently there's a new owner Porke I've never seen this owner before . I knew it was a kitchen staff member . The prices did not match what we were charged and a 4% fee in cards is crazy !!! Anyways overall I used to love this place before it became what jt is now sadly !

This time, I tried the shrimp and birria tacos. It's the first time I had the shrimp, and I was surprised that it was cut into little bits and pieces. It threw me off, and I prefer it to just come as it is. It would be easier to eat. The taco shells were crispy and more on the hard than soft side. The birria was pretty good, and I tried a little bit of the al pastor meat, but the part I sampled was too tough for my liking. The green salsa was great, but the red one was too spicy for me. I was full after 2-3 tacos, but eventually managed to finish 4. They're quite meaty and full, so it doesn't feel like those tiny tacos that are more like a snack. It's like mid-sized, and has plenty of toppings on it. I think the quesadilla is still one of the best things I've had from Tacos y Que and would recommend it to anyone who hasn't tried it yet.
