    chorizo, eggs, papas
    Aryani N.

    Good experience, complimentary valet with tips. Mexican breakfast was good, we got potato, chorizo, egg and ordered extra crispy papas, we got 4 different types of salsa, we liked the one in the bottle that was spicy salsa verde. Service was fair, check in process decent, im not taking away for any of that because our food came out at a reasonable time as well. a highlight was the hot cakes, and when I tell you its a big portion size and can be easily shared, boy oh boy, it was good, but too big for one person, two people could easily share a single stack. Would come back!

    Came here to try the steak fajitas, which we enjoyed! The quality and flavoring of the fajita steak was good, and their tortillas were freshly baked and high quality as well. For more than $50 for the large (1/2 pound) serving, I'm not sure if it'd be worth coming back for me but still was glad to try once. The beef enchilada we got was also very good, had a rich flavor and sauce, and the chips and queso were solid. The vibe inside the restaurant is slightly more elevated than your typical Tex Mex chain.

    Went back to Superica after a couple month break! Might be crazy, but looks like portion sizes / quality has gone down slightly. Didn't take a photo this time, but the steak quesadillas were definitely plated a little less elegantly and portion size smaller. The margaritas were also pretty small. The tortilla soup was as good as usual! And service was strong! They did mess up my Open Table reservation after mixing it up with someone else's reso, but I called and they fixed it.

    Sad this place is closing . I came a week before it's replaced by a casual steakhouse and got to try their delicious carnitas

    Parilla mixta

    Finally tried Superica after being curious about it for a while. They have valet parking (I've never been a fan of this, especially for casual places like this), but there are self parking options close by. We were seated quickly and service was great right from the start. Settled on the parilla mixta for me and my two small boys and that was more than enough. It came with beef and chicken fajitas, rice, beans, and tortillas. The beef was cooked medium as requested and everything else was great. Beers are cold, but a little on the small side so I had to get 3 :). Overall a solid option for no frills, standard Tex Mex in the area done well.

    The food here is so good it's unreal. The service was amazing. Our waiter was super helpful in deciding on what to eat. My friends and I got a couple of items on the menu but my food and appetizers was my absolute favorite. I got the migas, chile quiles and a cheese foundu dish that I can't remember the name of but it was so good. The ambiance was also very much upbeat and fun. I think this will be my new go to brunch spot in Houston.

    Beans and rice
    Lorece S.

    Don't be turned off by the fact that it's a chain, it's really good. My favorite thing on the menu is their hot cakes. They're so fluffy, and the salted butter syrup is drool worthy. My husband doesn't even like pancakes and he loves these. They're huge, so you really only need one. I also really love the complimentary chips and salsa. The verde is so light and fresh, and the updated roja is smoky and flavorful. Paired with the perfectly thin and crust tortilla chip is everything. Other updates they've made are definitely an upgrade. The refried beans topped with queso fresco is great, and now comes bottomless along with the rice. Other items are standard TexMex fare, but these things make me return again and again.

    Superica is one place that we continually come back to. In our opinion, these are the best fajitas in Houston. The meat is so well cooked and is the perfect balance of tender with some crisp on the outside. There is a butter sauce that comes with the fajitas takes them to the next level. While the fajitas are the main attraction, the queso, salsa, and margaritas are all very good as well. Of note, there is complimentary valet as well as a lot to the side for parking. It is often quite busy here so you may want to come early to beat the crowds!

    Bandit Queen (order it!)
    Brittany B.

    What an interesting little spot! If you frequent the area, I'm sure you know, but the parking in this area of the Heights is WILD! Your choices are to park in their valet only lot or circle the block and risk parking in the approved lot across the street (with I arrived to to find with good visibility but shattered glass from broken car windows.) When I arrived, I almost walked straight into La Luca, which was popping next door. This spot, not so much, or possibly it was just the vibe- it felt more chill. The bar, situated off to the right side, was a bit of an odd little setting, but I have up say, the service was awesome. I watched as the bartender worked the room. I grabbed a jalapeño margarita, Bandit Queen, queso, and two shrimp tacos and everything was delicious. The Bandit Queen with tajin rim being the standout (but to be fair, if you add chamoy, tajin, or guava to anything, I'm more inclined to like it.) If I return I'll definitely do so for breakfast/lunch because their hotcakes are bigger than my fast. That, and the customer service were the big winners for this spot!

    I came here recently with some friends and we had a blast! The vibes inside were so chill and "homey" and the patio was really pretty, and is enclosed with greenery, which makes it very relaxing! The food was excellent. I had the cheese enchiladas. They were so flavorful. Our server was excellent as well. The only thing is parking is a bit limited due to it sharing the same parking lot with La Lucha. Overall, I will be coming back!

    Went for a solo brunch a few weeks ago and chose to just sit at the bar. They seemed really busy (which is great!) but that meant it took a little while for the bartender to greet me and get my meal started. I didn't mind at all since I wasn't in any rush and both bartenders were very friendly and continued to check on me throughout my meal. Sadly they were out of horchata so I'll have to come back to try that! I was torn because the entire brunch menu sounded delicious, but ended up going with the chorizo, potato & eggs which was soooo good. I've heard their pancakes are also amazing so I definitely want to come back with a group and try more of the brunch menu!

    Steak Fajitas
    Neena M.

    After trying Superica earlier this year and being underwhelmed, we gave it another try and found out they revamped the menu. We ordered the heights margaritas, happy hour queso, and the steak fajitas. Everything was great!

    Margarita and chips and salsa
    Waverly H.

    Very nice and lovely restaurant. I would definitely bring my friends here. Came on a Saturday for lunch and was sat immediately right by the nice big window watching everyone pull up or leave the restaurant (great people watching table). Service was very attentive, our server was very knowledgeable and helpful. Staff was friendly and all working in unison. The food here is seasoned so flavor is popping in every dish (Thank you Superica!). Chips and salsas are very good. Started with the guacamole which was also good. I had the crispy tacos with charro beans (so good). My friend had the vegetable enchiladas which are also very good. I will definitely have that next time I am at this establishment. My margarita on the rocks was so delicious (very well balanced). We ended lunch with the tres leches cake which is also very delicious and very satisfying. Superica did not skip a beat. Very lively restaurant with an energetic spirit. I will definitely be back.

I ordered two drinks instead of three and I disputed that and he ended up telling me to get out of his restaurant and he picked up the phone to call the police keep in mind.

It's tucked off in Houston Texas somewhere I'm here for work. I decide to go to a friendly bar, which I thought it was I went there and dined there I paid for my food I tipped and then on my way home. I was like that was a cool place. Let me go back so I went back to order the same drink that I ordered, but then insert the manager his name is Michael I think but I'm gonna put the address here and the phone number please don't patronize these people until you know that they've done right by other people. I didn't even get a chance to taste the food before they were trying to call the police on me.

It was a Hispanic male. The manager you chose to represent your brand but could not represent it. I try to support local businesses but this type of service is uncalled for. I am at a conference and let all the patrons that were about to meet me there what happened. Management please do better. I called you guys, no answer and the run around about the manager's name at this location. Very rude and called the cops!! Please save your money. It's so many restaurants around don't go here unless they change the management. I still would be sus tho. They are tucked in the back so word of mouth is really all they got. As a GM of an establishment myself, this was totally uncalled for. An $8 that I would have gladly payed for because I had just come in there hours before with no issues. I paid and tipped well and was thinking this place is nice let me go back and was in for an awful treat.

There's even a security guard on site, which only adds to the impression that this place is fire. So when I happened to drive by on a 100-degree afternoon and found no line, I took it as a sign to finally give it a try. The small parking lot adjacent to the truck was nearly empty, except for a few other patrons who probably had the same idea. Ordering was simple and to the point. The menu keeps things straightforward: a selection of meats served as tacos or plates with a handful of sides. I ordered two barbacoa tacos with salsa verde. Less than two minutes after placing my order, they were in my hands. Fast service on a scorching day is always appreciated. With no seating available, I retreated to the comfort of my car to eat. Based on the amount of grease packed into these tacos, I would recommend doing the same. Eating them while standing could end with your shirt becoming an unintended side dish. One thing to note: don't count on a generous napkin supply. I realized after returning to my car that none were included. Consider keeping a few emergency fast-food napkins in your glove compartment. Those leftover Taco Bell napkins may finally fulfill their destiny. The barbacoa was flavorful, the salsa verde complemented it well, and overall, the tacos were overall tasty. That said, I left somewhat underwhelmed considering the crowds I routinely see gathered here during lunch and dinner hours. Perhaps I'm missing the standout item that keeps customers lining up daily. Even so, if you happen to have cash in your pocket and find yourself craving authentic tacos, this truck is certainly worth a stop.
