I finally dined at Superica and enjoyed my meal. My party of 3 arrived after 9:00 p.m while attending an event at Sports & Social. Anytime I have visited there is always a long wait for a table. We decided to sit at the bar for a drink while waiting. Luckily seats became available and we ordered our meal at the bar. I decided on the Ginger Margarita and Al Pastor Tacos. My friend ordered chorizo Queso for us to all share. The Al Pastor tacos which are pork are very flavorful and moist. The huge chunks of grilled pineapple was a nice sweet touch. The charro beans were very filling and not salty. Skylar was our bartender and he was very friendly and kept the conversation going with us. Really nice staff here. I would return again when in the area for brunch or lunch. It's a nice casual Tex mex restaurant. read more

Superica - Al pastor street tacos with charro beans - Tex-Mex Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

I HATE leaving a poor review! Lunch yesterday was a disaster. Quesadillas... Dry, no cheese. Terrible. Sopa de Tortilla. Someone must have dropped an entire salt shaker in it. I passed it around the table for everyone to try. It was inedible. It tasted like salt water. Tacos pastor were on fire. The salad was the only good item out of 8 ordered. The server...hello? Where are you? Disappeared. Had to flag him down to order. Flag him down to get water. Flag him down to get the bill. Flag him down to remind him the kids wanted their popsicles. And it was not busy AT ALL. This was our second try. This was worse than the first. Too many good/great Mexican options in this area to come back, ever. I see several reviews about the salt...but I'm telling the tortilla soup was inedible. Would have told my server...but...he never came back to see if everything was okay. A disaster. read more

I've dined here on multiple occasions and always great service. Most recent visit was Saturday 21Sept2024 at the bar and the service was exceptional once again. Lajoya was pleasant, welcoming, and attentive to my order request. I always enjoy the food and service here. read more

Super rica is probably the worst tex mex or mexican restaurant i have ever experienced in the triangle. Not sure what type of restaurant they are trying to be. Their portions are really small and ridiculous. Service was ok. But charging that much for the amount of food they serve should be a crime. Taste was bland at best. read more

A bit pricier than it should be when considering the quality and portions received in my opinion. While I didn't hate the experience, it's not an establishment that I'd rush to visit again. Comparatively speaking there add much better alternatives that are more reasonably priced. With that being said, service was prompt and the staff was attentive as well as accommodating. Management was attentive and vested in ensuring that my party's needs were being met. Bonus points for being very clean with the exception of the one female bartender who I observed sneezing into her hand without washing or cleaning. read more

This is a 3-star for the recent visits / trends, not overall. Have been here a few times and the burritos / quesedillas were fine. They give you chips and salsa which is s nice touch. Portions were good. Recently unsure if there has been a change but there was a creepy bald bartender, who stood out -- lacking customer service and seemed like it was an extra chore to do his job we had to ask him for everything and some things twice. And he wasn't busy just avoiding working. Service may vary dramatically as the other waitresses and one of the older waiters were all attentive and what you would expect for NC. read more

Nice spot in the developing upscale Fenton complex. Attractive and clean interior, with music that makes conversation a little challenging. The service was attentive and prompt. The food was excellent from the tacos, to quesadillas, to the chicken relleno, all three really enjoyed their dinners. House margaritas were tasty, but modest. read more

My daughter sent her food back due to hair. Not only did they not comp the meal but charged us twice to get the second one made. I asked them to take off the second meal when we saw the bill. If you notice the kitchen, no one is wearing a hair net. One another note, I asked for second beer and it took so long I asked another waiter to check on it. They eventually sent two beers to our table when I only wanted one more. Overall not happy. read more

i was actually blown away by our experience at superica! we went as a family of 4 on valentine's day so you already know it was packed. i did make reservations and we were seating within 2-3 minutes! the hostess was so sweet along with the other employees we talked to. our server was awesome and gave us the rundown since it was our first time. it was definitely hectic but all of our food came out pretty quickly! the classic queso was sooo good. my husband got the diablo shrimp tacos and we both agreed they were delicious. i ordered the steak fajitas and i think they are some of the best i've ever had. great portion size and they come with unlimited beans and rice which i thought was cool! the only that was slow to arrive were the drinks - i got a no-jito with was NA and we got one of their daily special iced teas! our server let us know they were a bit backed up which was no problem to us. both drink were great!! overall we had an awesome time and will definitely be back!! read more

We decided to stop by Fenton and try this place. We had tried to get in once before but it was busy and had a long wait. The restaurant has some Tex-Mex vibes with a great bar and open seating area. It's a nice atmosphere with eclectic decor. The menu is varied and has lots of great options. We tried multiple different options and loved everyone of them. Make sure you try the salsas. The green tomatillo sauce is incredibly flavorful and not spicy. The server was very knowledgeable in the menu and helped with our selections. He was attentive to our needs and friendly. Overall a great time. If you are in Cary or Raleigh and want to try a Tex-Mex, stop by. You won't regret it. read more

Bottom line: I enjoyed my meal at Superica at Fenton, even though Tex-Mex is not my usual go-to type of food. The Steak Fajita Quesadilla was great and I'd definitely get this one again in the future. Good service this visit. The Deets: I met up with some work colleagues at Superica in the Fenton complex in Cary. I had got some great positive feedback on the one located in Atlanta, so I was looking forward to this experience. We got there promptly at 5pm when they open the doors, and were immediately sat at a booth. The place filled up FAST during our visit, it was not empty for long at all! Observation: there was a double door next to our booth that is connected directly to the outside but apparently not for use and locked, however I would say 3 out of 5 people going by it tried to open it and come in...needs a big sign on it saying go around to the main entrance to enter with an arrow if they don't want that door used. The inside of the restaurant is good sized with tables/booth/bar and an inside patio type area near the host desk that would need some heat going to it if used in the winter time. Menus, water, drinks were taken care of in timely fashion. Their menu offers quite a variety of Tex-Mex dishes (see pic). We started out with some great guacamole as well as the chips that are brought to the table. The guacamole was delicious and a great way to start our meal experience. For my meal, I am one that Mexican/Tex-Mex is not a go-to type of meal personally so I kept it pretty simple...I went with their Steak Fajita Quesadilla entry on the menu (fresh made tortillas, Monterey jack cheese and Cheddar cheese, lettuce, guacamole, sour cream, I skipped the jalapeños). I am glad I ordered this one, great flavor, simple, with more texture than usual quesadillas you get other places and a bit of a crunch to it that I liked. The steak and filling were just right. The accompanying beans and rice were good as well, nothing over the top but good with the meal. One in my group got the Grilled Chile Relleno and it looked so amazing I had to nab a pic of it as well as my dish. All during our visit our server was positive, attentive, and helpful. For Tex-Mex not being one of my fave type of meals, I did have a good experience here at Superica at Fenton Cary and would definitely get the quesadilla choice again in the future. read more

Superica is a Tex-Mex place so it has plenary of competition. There seems to be a Tex-Mex place on every corner. Having said that, you need to walk by every other place to get to this one. The food is not the same. I had the chicken quesadilla. It may be the best I've had. The chicken was smoked and they did not scrimp on cheese and other ingredients. It is a hearty quesadilla. The rice and beans it came with were good as well. I also tried the pescados tacos. They were good as well. The fish was cooked perfectly. That being said, I still liked the quesadilla best. Let's talk salsa. The chips came with two salsas. One was a mild Avocado salsa and the other a spicy, smoked tomatillo salsa. Both are excellent and the chips were delicious. I leaned toward the smoked salsa. It is addictive. The atmosphere is good as well. This is a great date place but we came with family (and dog) and ate on the patio. Highly recommend. read more

With a bunch of options for finer dining at Fenton, Superica is a nice alternative to being able to eat at Fenton without breaking the bank. The Tex-Mex restaurant is still difficult to get seating at though if you are showing up at prime hours. Taste: Although Superica does serve up some good Tex-Mex, I was hoping for a little more given the environment. All the food here was solid, but you can kind of tell that the premium you're paying for is the customer service, the environment, and the little things that come before your meal. Price Point: You're in Fenton, expect to spend money here. It is more budget than the other options, but compared to other local Tex-Mex places, this is on the more premium side. Experience: Great. The waiters were all very nice, the food came out pretty fast, considering the number of people that were there when we went to eat. We got some chips and dip before our main meal arrived. Overall, I would recommend it if you're looking for something cheaper and more chill than M-Sushi or Colletta. read more

The one hour wait for a table mid week lunchtime left a sour taste. The snide remark by the hostess questioning if I had ever worked in a restaurant made me want to take my business elsewhere. However, this was for my daughter's birthday and it's where she wanted to eat. That being said the food was excellent and margaritas were strong. Table service was very good. Prices were on the high end, but I guess this is considered upscale Mexican cuisine. Overall the wait time and prices made this a one and done. read more

Superica - Chicken tortilla soup - Tex-Mex Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Fajitas cold and over cooked. Then they took them back and put them on the grill again and they were basically nuked. They spilled hot sauce on my daughter-in-law's hand burnt her. They did not care. Everyone's fajitas were cold and did not have much taste. We go to Superica in Atlanta and it is great. Will not go back here. read more

The food did not taste authentic hardly at all, but it sure did taste good! The chips were very light, and the flavor profiles of the salsas complimented each other very nicely. One was spicy with a kick, and the avocado cucumber salsa was cool and refreshing. My chilaquiles kinda looked like loaded nachos (with egg and some hot sauce), which was exactly what the menu said but wasn't what I was expecting. The grapefruit drinks were really good, though! Our server mixed up the drink order a few times, but it was okay! The ambiance of the place is also quite nice. May come back someday, although the prices are somewhat high for what you're getting. read more

Tasty chips and salsas and get some tasty queso too! Strong margaritas... very nice! Great with the small kids in our large party... crayons and menus and yummy popsicles at the end of the meal! Mole was good, not excellent. Shrimp tacos nice, but overly sauced. Great atmosphere, love the decor, friendly staff and cute area. no reservations available and line was starting at 5pm on the dot! Crazy busy quickly. Worth a visit! read more

Superica - Shrimp tacos - Tex-Mex Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Came here for lunch and it didn't disappoint! Surrounding: Located in Fenton. It is a brand new restaurant with a gorgeous interior an unbelievable looking bar. Food: Ordered the fish tacos and they did not disappoint. The fried fish was crispy and delicious with pieces being very large. The pickled onions were tasty, and the sauce they applied was not overwhelming. The soft taco did not break apart and after eating both of these, I was definitely satisfied. Service: The waitress was dressed up as Minnie mouse (since we came during the end of October, when it was Halloween). She was extremely pleasant and attentive while also giving us recommendations on the food and drinks she likes the most Drinks: ordered their standard margarita which was made well. It was smooth and not overly sour and definitely hit the spot. My next drink was just Herradura ultra neat. Can't wait to come here again. read more

Superica - Fish Tacos - Tex-Mex Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

I love this place. The only thing I don't like is that they way over salt the food. If the chef is a smoker, you need to slow down on the salt. You clearly can't taste the food. You're going to give people heart attacks. I've been there many times and lately I wake up with a swollen face after I eat there. You don't need that much salt guys! Great Margs. Food is good. Salt is ALOT. read more

Over at Fenton, there are a slew of higher end restaurants and dining spots with Superica laying claim to the Tex-Mex side of the equation. Located next to Fenton's greens area, you'll notice the large covered patio up front. Inside you'll find a hostess desk with a narrow sunny dining room. Walk further in and you'll find the main dining room and bar! Decor at Superica is excellent, there's a homey, upscale feel to the space with a Southwestern twang. The menu covers the usual nachos, tacos, enchiladas, fajitas and more. What you won't find are burritos, wow! For my first dining visit I'm doing brunch and order up a migas plates. The chips and salsa Superica starts you with are great, thin, crisp, and slightly salty. My migas are a well-prepared plate of eggs, chips, chorizo and more with a side of tasty refried beans and a handful of rustic tortillas on the side. With a horchata as a beverage, it makes a great start for Sunday. For sure Superica serves up some delicious Tex-Mex, a step up from Chuy's and it's a strong addition to the area. My only concern are prices, tacos are $18 for a pair with refried beans so you do pay for that quality. But I'll be back to try more off their menu, it was a tasty start for me! read more

This place is fantastic. The al carbon tacos are incredible - high quality meat and ingredients... just delicious. The staff is friendly, welcoming, fun. Drinks are excellent (try one of their Mezcal cocktails!). Overall fantastic vibes, fantastic restaurant and strongly recommend. read more

This used to be my favorite place. Went there tonight for dinner to find out they're under new management and there's been many changes. The salsas are different and the new ones don't have very much flavor. I was hopeful that the enchiladas suizas would still be the same but unfortunately they weren't, they barely had any chicken and the sauce had no flavor. We also ordered a "spicy cóctel de camarón" which we expected to be a tomato sauce based cocktail but it was basically just guac with shrimp but again, no flavor or spice. read more

Ambiance, great! Service, awesome! Food - disappointed. We ordered the steak tacos, the meat was super chewy... quite a shame since steak tacos are straightforward to make and difficult to mess up. Considering all the options out there, I am Not sure I will try this place again read more

this is by far the worst mexican food i've ever had. tortillas were undercooked and near inedible. all salsas were watery and lacked flavor. the fajitas came with a side cup of butter. butter! the only good thing, modello on tap. read more

Superica - Spicy Margarita - Tex-Mex Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

TLDR: Excellent customer service and Mexican dishes. Located in Fenton nearby the large parking area. I was greeted upon arrival by multiple employees and immediately seated at my choice of table. We were then greeted by our lovely server. I wish I caught her name. She was incredible. Very knowledgeable, charismatic, and attentive. Plus she communicated well and was efficient. Even though the restaurant recently switched ordering systems that the waiters and waitresses use, she resolved issues and adjusted well. We were provided waters, chips, and salsa right away. The salsas, especially the smoky one were incredible. You can definitely tell that they make the salsa fresh daily. It is incredibly flavorful and the chips are salty and crisp. The guacamole was okay. Compared to the salsa it was not very flavorful and I disliked the larger chips. For an entree, I chose the shrimp tacos with grilled pineapple instead of cheese. I appreciated that they could make this substitution. The tacos were delicious and filling. I was barely able to finish the third one and did not finish the beans (even though they were very good). Yes it is pricy, like all of Fenton, but worth it for the atmosphere, customer service, and flavorful, fresh food. Overall, we had a great experience here and recommend this restaurant to others! read more

We tried Superica at Fenton for lunch before seeing a movie next door. We were promptly seated by a friendly hostess in the beautifully decorated dining room. They have an awesome bar as well although we didn't try a cocktail this go round. Our server was very attentive and did a great job when it was getting quite busy. You do get tortilla chips and 2 kinds of salsa-1 avocado with no heat & 1 red chili with medium heat. There is also a chipotle hot sauce on the table. The $14.99 lunch special is the bomb. I had the ensalada (which is huge) and a chicken suizas enchilada. My partner had a chicken soft taco (which is rolled like a burrito) and a cheese enchilada. The cheese in the enchilada is akin to a grilled cheese sandwich and it was heavenly. The lunch special also comes with beans and rice. These are huge portions for that price. We will definitely be back. I really want to try the quesadilla next time! read more

WOW. Was not expecting to find the best mole I've ever had at this place, but I did. The food did take a bit of time to arrive, but my server continuously checked on the table and refilled our chips/salsa. Yes, the food is a bit pricey here. However, with everything that came with the enchiladas, I was so stuffed after eating only half of the plate (also probably because I stuffed myself with chips) - I had to take the rest home. The mole was so savory and rich - it was the best mole I've ever had. So excited to come back again for it! read more

We visited because of the great reviews. Monday night was not the night for our party. Food was mediocre, over grilled chicken and small serving sizes for the price point. Service was friendly and attentive. If you don't go out often, don't take a chance on this restaurant. Definitely not my top rated for Mexican. read more

The food was ok but just not a good value. I felt like everything was overpriced, maybe it is because it's Fenton pricing? I don't know, but I won't be back, I would rather go to one of the very many excellent Mexican places that have bigger portions for much less. read more

Great food and they can accommodate large groups. This is our go to place when family is in town because everyone loves it -- even the kids!

Superica is smaller than I thought. We were told that the wait was 45 minutes but it ended up being a little over an hour. I tried The O.G. margarita and it did not taste fresh. I also ordered a Tommy's margarita but our waitress forgot and brought me out another O.G. For food we started with the guacamole then it was the cheese enchiladas for me and the chicken verde enchiladas for my husband. The food was good but it's expensive for lunch. I think that the wait time may not be as long once more lunch spots open in Fenton. read more

Husband had a business lunch here and asked if I wanted him to bring me something. After a quick glance at the menu I requested the tortilla soup... bc who doesn't love having a little treat to look forward to? He just brought it home. What a downer. Yes, we all know you dont get the same "quality" or experience with "to-go" food. But geez...$10 for 8oz of overly salty soup? As Im writing this, however, the thought occurred to me that perhaps this is a concentrate and im meant to add water?! Take what you will from this. It's a better experience in person. read more

The food was delicious, from beginning to end. The chips and salsa were like no other, not extremely spicy but definitely not bland or boring. We had the Queso Fundido with Chorizo, very good definitely recommend. My main dish was the Short Rib, it came with freshly made flour tortillas, side of beans and topped with finely shredded cabbage curtido. Also came with the typical toppings, sour cream, guacamole, pico, shredded cheese and grilled onions and jalapeño. Authentic bold flavors! My husband had the Chile Relleno. It was excellent. Service was quick fast and friendly. I am eager to try the rest of the menu. read more

BLUF: Quite delicious, worth a visit. Once we were seated, we were promptly brought their complementary chips and salsas with a squeeze bottle of this deep red, smoky, pepper sauce. Even though I am a thick chip fan, the thin, crispy tortilla chips they served were great for whetting the appetite without being too filling. The two salsas were so tasty and abundant. We went with the vegetable fajita and added skirt steak. It was great ordering if I do say so myself. The veggies gave us roasted cauliflower, sweet potatoes, a pepper, corn. The skirt steak was delicious as well, nicely grilled and sliced on the bias. Nice. read more

I had a chicken quesadilla, which was pretty good. My friend, however, had a salad and added steak to it. The steak was barely visible among the salad. Certainly not worth the 11 extra dollars. Overall, the food as OK but the menu is very limited. I normally order fajitas in Mexican restaurants however, here they were overpriced and I did not . The service on the slow side. The ambiance was OK at the beginning but then the restaurant filled up and it became kind of noisy. Overall, although it was OK it's not the kind of place that I would return to. read more

This restaurant fits somewhere between upscale and casual. Not too fancy, but pretty comfortable atmosphere--they have a projector on the wall with music videos...there's also a bar. Spent $18 on two fish tacos, so price-wise they're a bit steep. Other portion sizes were much better for price point, like Chalupas or Quesadillas entree. The food comes out very colorful and fresh, and absolutely delicious...this place is definitely worth the visit for the quality of the food! I would recommend looking at the menu before you go. SN; they give you house-made salsas! Very tasty, and they'll give you a free bag of chips and salsa to take home at the end too, if you ask. read more
