Is superior grill overrated? Their fajitas are standout amongst all other mexican restaurants, but if you're ordering something else off the menu is is really worth it?

The margs are good but over $20/pop is wild if not happy hour

Are they highly rated for anything else?

I find the National/regional Tex Mex chains to be pretty similar. Some were exceptional when they started out but converged to the mean as they expanded.

I’ve never had a bad meal, bad experience, or bad service there.

I feel they are properly rated.

Seems like they may be a bit higher than elsewhere, but it’s not hurting their business at all.

It's not overrated- it's better than average atmosphere, service and drinks. We go maybe once a quarter, and I always get the Taco Truck Carnitas. For $17, it's the best value on the menu.

I want to try the quail next time. The red fish was really good for a mexican place.

Properly rated. Only really go at happy hour for the drinks, food is fine nothing special. Good atmosphere servers are always friendly.

I just had steak quesadillas for lunch. They were good, but $21 for 6 tiny-arse triangles is a bit much.

Overpriced, but they run a tight ship, and there's seldom riff raff. I can't really blame them for charging what they can get away with when people line out the door nightly to get in.

seems like they're priced just right if it keeps the dregs out.

Be honest, we went for the women, not the drinks.

Superior is awful on any measure.

I’ve never understood the allure of the place, but to each his own.

I really don’t mind paying a ‘lil more not to have to deal with the ghetto vibe. Superior is superior, imho…

I don’t think it’s overrated but I only go every once in a while because it’s expensive. I do enjoy when I go though.

Are their margs really $20 now? Been a few years but that sounds insane

I love the place and the one on Government St in BR is exceptional.

the food is as good or better than your other options. The atmosphere is fun and friendly. You can drink beer instead of 20 dollar tequila sugar water. BRs finest either haven’t found it or don’t like it

underrated if anything
