Chef Ford Fry and Chef Kevin Maxey, together designed a “Mex-Tex” menu that plays to their own Texan roots, tracing the beginnings of the cuisine to the 1930s, when Mexican cooks first doctored up their dishes to suit a “Gringo” palate with Americanized elements, giving birth to the Tex-Mex dialogue. “Kevin and I wanted to do food we like to eat,” Fry said. “It’s natural for a chef to want to be true to a certain culture, and likewise, we wanted to do authentic Tex-Mex, because it developed where we’re from.

The food was excellent but the atmosphere and service was not equal.  For expensive Mexican I would expect friendly service and the better atmosphere. It just felt cheap.

Do not order a whiskey sour or anything with sour mix. They make their own and it is horrible tasting and ruins the whole drink.

Superica Matthews location, Strawberry Hill has excellent food and pleasant ambiance. Most of the time service is excellent. On a recent very busy Friday evening we had a somewhat surly server but this is not the usual. Superica continues to be one of my go to Mexican favorites, their rice, beans, chips and salsas are always tasty and consistent. We enjoyed the projected music videos and also the music generally. Kids liked the Elvis pinball machine . Just a cool place with great traditional and house specialties. Try the chile relleno for a special treat.

Had a wonderful birthday dinner for my son at Superica. Had to wait a little bit for out 7pm reservation, but had a spicy margarita while waiting! Place was packed, but able to carry on a conversation at our table of 5. A rarity in Charlotte.
Service, as usual, was wonderful. Food delicious! They brought out a piece of cake for my son’s birthday. Extra special.
We will definitely be back soon!
