When I ordered 6 tacos they only gave 20% off. I explained the discrepancy then was told that was only for seniors so I got out my license to prove i was a senior and was old enough for the discount. A few minutes went by and the waitress came back and said the owner wanted me to return the tacos because those were not what you get for the discount even though the menu states All and Any type tacos you get 50% off. This bozo which is the owner BENJI wanted to replace them with something of less value, quality and probably tainted. Myself will never give them another cent. This is a Warning to all, they act on the side of criminal. They gave me this much of a problem over $6.00 which is insane and sad. I have never seen such unprofessionalism and greed.

Parking was great.  The inside was clean. The customer service was good. Their menu has a wide variety of options. The prices were kind of up there for me initially. However, once I got my food, I was completely satisfied. The salsa was amazing; I mean, the flavor was beyond delicious. I ordered the birra tacos; they were small, but they were delicious. I was truly impressed with my lunch and am happy to have a new place to dine.

I fell in love with Superica when I first moved to Charlotte nearly three years ago, and it quickly…read morebecame one of my go-to spots for reliable, flavorful Tex-Mex. But I have to start with a small heartbreak: my beloved puffy taco is gone. I grew up in San Antonio, Texas, where the puffy taco was created, and it's deeply nostalgic for me. It's not a sope, not a tostada--it's a true puffy taco, light, airy, and unlike anything else. For a long time, Superica made one that came remarkably close to what I grew up with. Unfortunately, after changes in leadership and kitchen management, it quietly disappeared from the menu. That was a real disappointment. That said, I still come back--because the food here is consistently good. The crispy tacos with picadillo are my current favorite. Picadillo (P-I-C-A-D-I-L-L-O) is a traditional Latin dish with many regional variations, and this version reminds me of the one my grandmother used to make in San Antonio. The portions are generous, the flavors are balanced, and the menu offers something for everyone--from enchiladas and chile rellenos to steaks and fresh tableside guacamole. Speaking of guacamole, I'm a purist. I like it simple: avocado, jalapeño, cilantro, lime, garlic--chunky and clean. Superica delivers on that. The chips and salsa are bottomless, the salsa has great depth of flavor, and for those who like heat, they offer a tiny dropper of hot sauce that is smoky, bold, and absolutely not for the faint of heart. The ginger margarita is another standout. It comes with a generous piece of crystallized ginger and has a bright, balanced flavor that makes it easy to order a second one. And if you have room for dessert, do not skip the tres leches cake--rich, decadent, and a perfect way to end the meal. I also appreciate the little touches here: * Friendly, knowledgeable waitstaff * A lively bar area that's great for happy hour * A beautiful outdoor patio that makes al fresco dining feel special * And a fun tradition of sending you home with a packaged Texas praline This South End location is my personal favorite. It feels more adult and relaxed, while the Strawberry Hill location tends to be more family-heavy. Both are good, but the vibe here suits me better. Yes, prices have crept up a bit--as they have everywhere--but the quality, consistency, and atmosphere keep me coming back. And as someone who travels frequently for work across multiple states, I appreciate that Superica maintains a dependable standard wherever I encounter it. Bottom line: Even without the puffy taco, Superica remains one of my favorite Tex-Mex spots in Charlotte. Come hungry, bring friends, share plates--and as always, travel safe and eat well.

If you're looking for a spot with a high-energy vibe and a killer aesthetic, Superica in South End…read moredefinitely delivers. I visited with a friend on Cinco de Mayo, so as you can imagine, the scene was absolutely chaotic. The wait was a staggering hour and a half, but Superica handles crowds like a pro. They have an outdoor bar and a grill setup serving: * A limited taco menu * Chips and Queso This was a total game-changer. It's a genius move that keeps the "hangry" at bay while you soak up the South End atmosphere. Once we finally scored two seats at the bar, the service remained impressively steady despite the holiday madness. * The Vibe: 10/10. The restaurant is beautiful and definitely fits the trendy Charlotte mold. * The Food: To be honest, I wasn't blown away. Given the hype and the stunning decor, my expectations were sky-high. The flavors were "decent" and felt like a solid performance, but they didn't quite hit that "must-return" level of deliciousness. * Portion Sizes: Huge! I couldn't finish my meal in one sitting. Here's the interesting part: The food actually tasted better the next day. It traveled well and the flavors seemed to settle in overnight. If you can't finish your plate, definitely take it home. Is it worth the South End gas and the hour-plus wait? For me, I'll probably stick to my "old faithful" spot up in the University area for my routine taco fix. However, I'm willing to give Superica the benefit of the doubt. It's hard for any kitchen to be at its absolute peak on Cinco de Mayo. If I find myself back in the neighborhood on a quieter Tuesday, I'd give it another shot just to see if the food can live up to that gorgeous interior.

This one is yellow which may be because of the seasoning they say is in there. Not my favorite. The chips however are good. They are seasoned. I for the salmon tacos and wasn't happy. The presentation and portions were great, but the salmon itself lacked flavor. No salt on the salmon. I expected more for blackened salmon.

My California burrito was ok-the fries inside were soggy and the seasoning just left something to be desired. Covering it in queso would have helped. The rice and beans were pretty good, but the main problem both of us had is that the food was cold. We cannot understand why as the cook was in an open kitchen 6 feet from us and we watched him working hard and cooking the whole time. My mom stated that the enchiladas were okay, nothing special. She did not like that the different ones of chicken, beef, and cheese were covered all in the same sauce. The chips and salsa were good-fresh, crisp chips and two kinds of salsa. We enjoyed that part of the meal the most. It is a small place, maybe 9 tables.

The excellent thing about Chuy's there is always leftovers for the next meal tomorrow. I ordered the chili relleno enchilada plate, the granddaughter ordered the kids chicken taco, chicken and cheese nothing else, and my wife ordered the green chili enchilada plate. Service was quick, and the plates and food were hot. It was a busy family Friday night. So, everything was fine. I have lived in NC for 15 years now, and my Texas taste buds for hot foods are cooling way down. I use to think Chuy's was mild, but now everything is warm spice wise. Not, overpowering just a lot more spicery than I remember. This not a criticism of Chuy's just that my taste buds have changed. A problem of aging again.
