Superica

Superica, Inman Park (Krog Street Market)

Ford Fry has many restaurants in Atlanta now and all are good and worth your time. I’m not sure how he does it but perhaps it’s a mystery that shouldn’t be solved. Superica opened in the spring at Krog Street Market and I was chopping at the bit to go. Right when you walk in you instantly get the Tex-Mex vibe. Now I’ve never been to Texas but it felt pretty authentic to me. Right when we sat down we were graciously greeted with the freshest chips and two types of salsa. Now I’m not sure about you but for me it’s no Tex-Mex feast without Chili con Queso so we ordered the small bowl and decided this is the best in Atlanta. The list of drinks was pretty interesting but I elected for The O.G. Margarita. I really wanted to try the short rib plate but after consulting the waiter and finding out it’s big enough to share I went with the Tacos de Barbacoa and Tom ordered the Puffy Taco Dinner. I often pass on the rice and beans but even those were good! Seriously, how does Mr. Fry do it?

Bartaco

Bartaco, The Westside

The people who brought you Barcelona in Inman Park now present Bartaco on the Westside. If you’re not excited you should be. It recently opened and while they are still working out some service kinks the food and drinks graciously make up for the early blunders. The menu isn’t huge but all dishes are satisfying. Their house margaritas and mojitos are great but watch out as they can go down rather quickly! I would personally recommend the guacamole and grilled corn but order it off the cob as this makes it easier to share. The fish taco is good but it’s fried so can be heavy. The two tacos that a carnivore can’t pass up are the sesame ribeye and pork belly. These are street tacos so ordering two or thee would be a good idea if you’re looking for a full meal. I didn’t have the opportunity to try the rice bowls but after looking at another tables’ I plan on trying one next time. And lastly for dessert we ordered the churros; they’re the same as Barcelona’s. If you’re with a group these are easy to split too! When looking for a fun casual but quality place to eat make sure this place is on your radar.
