Ford Fry’s Superica is opening another location in Atlanta, this time in West Midtown, according to the Atlanta Business Chronicle.
The new Superica will be on Howell Mill Road next to The Optimist, another Fry restaurant.
Superica Opening On Howell Mill Road
Superica’s Tex-Mex fusion food has been a hit since it began in Krog Street Market, which is considered its home base. The eatery continues to draw a crowd, from intowners looking for some authentic fare to tourists searching for the best Atlanta bites.
What Should I Order At Superica?
If you visit Superica, you’ll see a menu long on interesting twists to classic dishes. Here are some standout favorites that I’ve enjoyed over the last couple years.
Superica’s menu offers two food choices: dinner and brunch. Here are some dinner faves of mine, which I always recommend to others.

Who Owns Superica?
Superica is owned by restaurateur Ford Fry, a James Beard-nominated chef who’s culinary portfolio includes a who’s who of Atlanta bangers such as JCT Kitchen, The Optimist and of course, Superica.
“I want to create restaurants that strike a timeless emotional chord – restaurants that don’t pander to trend, but draw generations of families together,” says Fry.
