Our Story
Welcome to El Super Burrito & Lupita’s, a cornerstone of authentic Mexican cuisine in Cedar Rapids, IA since 2004. Known as the home of the original Burrito Ahogado, our restaurant has become a beloved local favorite for families, friends, and anyone craving bold, fresh flavors. From the very beginning, our mission has been simple: bring the vibrant taste of Mexico to our community, one plate at a time.
Our journey began with a love for food and tradition. Coming from Mexico, we wanted to share the recipes we grew up with—dishes made with care, flavor, and authenticity. Every tortilla, burrito, and plate of tamales tells a story of our roots and reflects the dedication we have to providing an experience that feels both familiar and new. We believe that food should be made fresh, served with pride, and enjoyed in a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. That’s why everything is baked, cooked, and prepared daily to order.
Over the years, El Super Burrito & Lupita’s has grown from a small eatery into a community staple, known for our famous Burrito Ahogado, flavorful carne asada, mouthwatering al pastor, and hearty gorditas. But we don’t stop there—our menu offers something for everyone, including veggie burritos, kid-friendly meals, and crowd favorites like nachos piled high and spicy Burrito Bombero for those who love a little heat.
What makes us stand out is more than just our food—it’s our commitment to creating a space where everyone feels at home. With mariachi entertainment, a casual and welcoming dining room, and options for dine-in, pick-up, delivery, and carry-out, we make enjoying your favorite Mexican dishes easy and fun. Whether you’re here with family, friends, or just stopping by for a quick meal, we promise every bite will transport you closer to Mexico.
For nearly two decades, we’ve proudly served Cedar Rapids and the surrounding areas, and our dedication to authenticity and hospitality hasn’t changed. At El Super Burrito & Lupita’s, you’re not just a customer—you’re part of our family. Come join us and discover why so many people call us their go-to spot for real, flavorful Mexican cuisine.

First visit--and definitely not the last! We're so glad we gave this Mexican spot a try. The food was delicious, and the service was warm and welcoming. If you're craving authentic Mexican flavors at great prices, this no-frills, family-run restaurant is the place to go.
The owner was very friendly and shared that she took over about six months ago but kept the same menu, staff, and cozy atmosphere. She also mentioned they recently added a breakfast burrito that's become a hit--perfect for a quick brunch while running errands. The dessert options looked amazing, though we didn't try them this time.
What we ordered:
* I had the caldo de res soup, served with five small tortillas, dried chilies, fresh cilantro, and onions. The broth was flavorful, and the meat was tender--such a comforting dish for a chilly day.
* My husband went for the Rancheros burrito (steak and jalapeños) topped with queso sauce. It came out piping hot, and he loved it! The jalapeños had a marinated kick that added extra depth.
* We also tried two jalapeño and cheese tamales. Portions were generous, and we even saved one tamale and the tortillas for another small meal at home.
We noticed several other guests ordering menudo, so that's definitely on our list for next time!
