| - I went to Superica on a Thursday evening around 6:15 for dinner. There was a small wait for a table, but we (2 people) were able to grab the last two seats at the bar for immediate service. The restaurant did fill up very quickly - by 7:00 there were probably 25+ people waiting for tables.
The bartender was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about all of the cocktails options and food recommendations. For cocktails, we started with the Red Headed Stranger and The Highwayman. Both were AWESOME. After our cocktails, we switched to wine/beer.
The chips are served with 2 salsas made in-house. A smoky salsa and a green avocado salsa - both were outstanding. For an appetizer, we opted to try the campechana de mariscos - a tomato-based ceviche with octopus, crab, shrimp and avocado. It was slightly sweet and oh so tasty. This is definitely a repeat order!
For dinner, we ordered the whole red snapper and the vegetable fajitas with an addition of some chicken. The red snapper was juicy and pulled easily from the bones. The vegetable fajitas were amazing - they have a rich smoky flavor that is really unique. Both are served with rice and beans and a side plate of lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, guacomole and flour tortillas.
The portions for the entrees are really large. I would recommend ordering one appetizer and one entree to split between 2 people, or skip the appetizer and limit your chip intake! This will also help keep your bill in-check, as the prices are a bit higher than expected for a tex-mex restaurant.
Overall, we LOVED our meal and look forward to checking out brunch next.
