I love Superior Grill. Unfortunately, I usually don't eat there when I'm in Baton Rouge because I'm always on the search for Cajun food. I can get great Tex/Mex up here in DFW. But if Superior were in DFW, it would be in the rotation with La Hacienda Ranch and Uncle Julio's.
I like El Rio Grande on Airline Highway in BR. Its actually owned by a Mexican man unlike most of the others that are owned by corporations
if i want tex mex, i'll stay in oklahoma. some pretty good stuff here. and a place that serves mexican food (with tex mex seeming to be an afterthought on the menu) that is really good. great, now im craving their cochinita pibil.
La Caretta is average at best. I mean it's edible, but don't expect anything exciting. Superior is good, but overpriced. I forget the name of it, but the chain place (there's another one in the Houston Galleria) by College and I-10 with the bird on the sign is way better than La Caretta and much cheaper than Superior. Serranos is also much better than La Caretta, but also overpriced IMO. edit: Ninfas.. I think that's what it's called..
Not to mention the only good Ninfa's I have ever been to was the original Mama Ninfa's in Houston. The rest of the chain restraunts just don't compare. I like Case Maria or Superior but Superior is always overcrowded and I find most items overprices. But I would go to La Carretta's over Ninfa's anytime.
