    The spot is tiny and cozy! The drinks are unique but it really depends who's making them and right outside they have this cute guy:

    Super cute little hole in the wall cocktail lounge in downtown Gainesville! This place just opened a few months ago, but I hope it stays open for years to come. Very small bar area with only 3-4 seats, but there is more seating in the back and outside. Good, chill music flowing through the place just like the drinks. The bartender was very nice and made terrific drinks and even offered to spice up the spicy drink more if needed, which I loved. Price point was on point, not overly expensive for a place like this, so don't let that scare you away! Can't wait to spread the word and return with more friends! Love the vibe and can't wait

    Great vibes

    Excellent vibes, service, and drinks. Primarily a wine bar but is known for their cocktails. A little hidden, but that's what makes it perfect. Saturday night and plenty of breathing room. Excellent atmosphere. I'm impressed. Five stars. I'll certainly be back!

    This bar is a hidden gem in town! The ambiance is great with elegant decor. It's a bit tiny with limited seating but they have extra seating on their outdoor patio weather permitting. They have a seasonal drink menu with cocktails that are just as tasty as they are photo-worthy. For those that like an espresso martini, this is the spot to go for one! Their whipped espresso martini is a must. Some other spring drinks I had there were the crème brûlée, matcha latte martini, and the London fog. The crème brûlée's presentation was my favorite!

    Cute little hidden wine bar in downtown Gainesville. Not much seating inside but plenty of outdoor seating. Great wine selection and decent prices. Great for date night.

    Hidden gem! service was great & drinks were fun & tasty! I will say that its a really tiny bar which also makes it very warm/ stuffy inside, had to sit outside instead which is just as nice!

    Deliciously exquisite

    Hands down the best espresso martini. Intimate setting. Perfect for pre or post dinner drink in downtown area. Will return

    We sat at the outside bar as reservations were needed for anything inside. Our bartenders were…read morevery friendly, polite and did the best they could do, but were completely overwhelmed on this Graduation Friday. Place was clean, food was OK, yes just OK and wasn't even close to being served all together. The third plate was served after we finished all the other dishes. As I said, the bartenders were working hard but the overall service was terrible. No silverware was given, no drink refills were offered, no follow up on the missing food. Service just sucked! Especially for the prices ! Too many options to go back and have another bad experience. Today's busyness is not a surprise as I go through this every year, yet we're unable to take care of their guests.

    We came to Cantina Añejo for a sorority moms & daughters event, and the vibe was definitely fun and…read morelively--it's right across the street from UF, so it's clearly a popular scene! Drinks were included with the event, and I ordered a Tito's with club soda and lime, but something was off. Not sure what they mixed in, but it tasted unusually sweet, almost like it had added sugar or syrup--which was unexpected for such a simple cocktail. On the plus side, we tried the chips and guacamole, and they were really good--fresh, flavorful, and a great snack to share. Overall, it's a good spot if you're looking for a social, energetic atmosphere, but the drinks didn't quite hit the mark for me. Might give it another try for the food or a different cocktail.

    I have not reviewed anything on Yelp in a long, long time. I have now eaten here three times and…read morethe food quality, taste, and consistency is absolutely terrific. In my previous reviews I Utilized a Good, Bad, and Ugly rating scale. I really like most everything about Superette. The staff are very eclectic and nice, outdoor dining is relaxing and invigorating. There are not many things better than sitting outside under oak trees while eating delicious savory food and enjoying a good wine or cocktails. Replaying last night's dinner in my head has me planning my next visit to Superette. Sunday brunch this weekend is calling my name. Oh,'one more thing, Superette is also the place to go where you will only run into the people you like. The folks you don't care for are not going to be there. Just my observation.

    Superette was such a beautiful and memorable experience. I ordered the hibiscus spritz, which was…read morerefreshing, floral, and perfectly balanced, such a pretty drink. The sweet potato soup had a puréed, baby‑food texture, but the flavor itself was surprisingly rich and comforting. The star for me was the Tunisian casse‑croûte. The flavors were incredible; the albacore was tender and seasoned just right, the salata mechouia added this smoky, roasted pepper depth, and the pickled egg brought the perfect tangy brightness. The arugula gave it a fresh, peppery lift, and the harissa aioli tied everything together with a warm, subtle heat. The fries on top added the best crunchy contrast. Every bite was layered, bold, and so satisfying.
