Ford Fry is at it again. Doors to the second location of his Tex-Mex hotspot Superica opened in July near Chastain Park (the first has been wildly successful in Inman Park’s Krog Street Market). The menu, which he developed with vice president of culinary operations Kevin Maxey, pays homage to Fry’s roots as a Texan and features tamales and seafood ceviche as starters. Full plates include traditional dishes such as tacos al carbon, which means the filling is cooked over coals, and parilla mixta fajitas.
Go for the puffy tacos—they’re flashfried corn tortillas that “puff.” You can get them with either beef or chicken. Cocktails are what you’d expect from a Tex-Mex spot: margaritas, wine and beer, but the focus is on high-quality ingredients of fresh juices, Mezcal and house-made purees. They’ll be serving breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays, along with live music every Friday and Saturday night.
