After my last review, I had honestly resigned to needing to find a different Mexican establishment. I was asked to give them another shot. So, we did. We went there last night (3/6) after 8pm. My husband was seated and ordered drinks while I finished up a phone call. When I finished, our orders were taken quickly and the staff was pleasant.
We were busy snacking on the chips and salsa and playing on our phones, when we were approached by our server asking if we'd like dessert.
I was a little confused. Generally, I like to receive dinner before checking out the dessert menu. When informed we had yet to receive our meals, we were informed they would be right out. And they were. Almost as though they had been done for fora while and we're waiting to be delivered. Hmmm.
To make matters worse, the chicken my husband had ordered had somehow disguised itself as shredded beef. We had to wait for our server to check on us again and we got it corrected. So, I waited for him to finish as I was already done with my meal at that time.
Sorry, but I don't do 3rd strikes. We're not playing baseball here. I would recommend finding an establishment without so many "kinks" to apparently work out.
Original review: (4 months ago)
I would be willing to eat here now and then, but realistically, it's not very high on my list of places.
The biggest change to this place is the name on the building. It is still Super Mex in all other ways. The menu is extremely similar, the food is similar in cost and flavor. I did not find a whole lot of differences.
I agree with my husband, Chris R., that the salsa has improved and the chips seem easier as actual chips vs the rounds. I didn't mind the old style and have no preference.
The food was decent. Nothing spectacular. My food was HOT, as in, I had to let the tortillas cool for a bit each time - but that isn't a negative.
I guess I just didn't see much difference, but I also didn't mind Super Mex, so it's probably about the same now. Near the end of the Super Mex name, we stopped going there. We didn't have a great last experience and it takes us a while to give second chances, especially when stomach issues are involved (I have a sensitive stomach, not that there was anything MAJOR with the food).
Like I said, aside from the signage on the building, everything is basically the same. Even my receipt still says Super Mex on it.
