What happened after Man v. Food?
On Man v. Food Nation (S4E16, aired September 14, 2011), the show stopped at La Super-Rica Taqueria, a small order-at-the-counter Mexican restaurant on Milpas Street in Santa Barbara. The taqueria is known for handmade corn tortillas and simple, meat-forward tacos, served cafeteria-style at a walk-up counter with limited seating. It is a cash-only business that has operated at the same Milpas Street address for decades. According to a Yelp business listing updated in July 2026, the restaurant had accumulated more than 2,100 reviews and nearly 1,940 photos, indicating ongoing customer activity at the location. Google Places also lists the business as operational. Together, that July 2026 listing activity is the most current evidence available and points to La Super-Rica Taqueria remaining open.

Before you go: Businesses change fast. Always confirm directly with the restaurant — call ahead, or check its own current website or social media — before making plans around anything on this page.
Sources we checked
We work hard to keep every status accurate and dated, but restaurants change fast and our sources aren't perfect. If something here is wrong — a status, a name, an address, anything — tell us what you're seeing and where you saw it, and we'll check it.
