Buckhead

About the restaurant

Superica
– “where sunshine spends the winter” – also known as Tex-Mex cuisine served in an Old-West-inspired atmosphere alongside music inspired by Austin.

The cuisine is a combination of 1950s Tex-Mex and the wood grill that has taken the food to another level by way of fajitas and more. An “evolved Tex-Mex menu,” includes the classics: tacos, nachos, tamales and enchiladas plus more intricate dishes such as wood-grilled fajitas and shrimp tacos always served with just-made flour tortillas, all while paying homage to the traditions and recipes that have been a part of the Texas culture for decades.

What a great place to take anyone for a birthday celebration! This is truly a fantastic dinner show with good food, great drinks, and an amazing group of performers. The energy went from high to higher the entire time we were there, and that was the early evening show. The talent was funny and entertaining.

Canton

About the restaurant

Welcome to the Downtown Kitchen. We have one goal in mind when we open our doors every day - "To do whatever it takes to create the best dining experience possible.' That means buying certified Angus beef, Ashley Farms chicken, New Zealand Spring lamb, dayboat fish and fresh local produce. We change our menus daily according to market and season availability. Our style of cooking is defined as simplicity at its best. We built the restaurant to elevate the guests' level of comfort. The bar, tables, and booths were custom-made by a local wood worker. And we searched the nation for unique works of Art to deck our walls. Music of Blues and Rock greats fill the air. Service is as important as the food. Our staff is sincere, knowledgeable and friendly. They hustle to deliver the best service around, yet take the time to remember your name and how you like your drink.

Wonderful service and food. We were celebrating an anniversary and we're delighted to see a special little card on the table with congratulations. I had the chef's special of the evening of duck and my husband had scallops. Both we're done perfectly. The meal also included soup or salad I chose potato soup and it was slint with the crispy bacon and a bit of green on top. The service started with fresh bread and a tasty , slightly spicy red dipping sauce. Unfortunately not enough room to sample any of the desserts but that will be next time
