Super Potatoes has rolled into the Brandon and Riverview corridor with a very specific mission: turn a baked potato into the whole meal. The fast-casual counter leans on Puerto Rican ingredients to load up its spuds, and backs them up with plantain and empanada options for anyone who wants a break from the usual fries and burgers. Owners say the idea is quick, handheld versions of island street food that still feel like comfort food for Tampa Bay diners.
“Super Potato is a fast and casual restaurant that we serve baked potatoes,” co-owner Areny Ortiz told FOX 13, explaining that a fully loaded spud turns into “a full meal” once you stack on proteins, cheese and fresh toppings. Ortiz highlighted a signature stuffed plantain known as La Canoa, and said diners can swap the potato itself for nachos or a bowl as the base for those toppings. The FOX 13 coverage was built on in-person visits to the kitchen and sit-down interviews with the owners.
What is on the menu
The menu mashes up American comfort favorites with Puerto Rican staples. On one side you have bacon-chicken-ranch, cheeseburger and pulled-pork coleslaw potatoes. On the other, Puerto Rican signatures like La Canoa, baked empanadas and quesitos for dessert. Delivery listings show named specials such as the "Super Potato" and "La Tripleta," along with build-your-own options and sides. A fuller rundown of items appears on ordering platforms like Uber Eats.
Where to find it and order
Super Potatoes operates along U.S. Highway 301, just south of the Falkenburg corridor, with local directories listing the storefront at 3840 US Highway 301 S. Map and delivery services place the spot within the Brandon and Riverview area and show pickup and delivery windows across most weekdays. Ordering details and hours shift slightly depending on the service, and the restaurant appears on apps and directories such as Postmates and MapQuest.
Brandon's Puerto Rican scene
The arrival of Super Potatoes adds another entry to a small but steadily growing lineup of Puerto Rican spots around Brandon and Riverview, alongside food trucks and family-run restaurants that bring island flavors to Hillsborough County. Local directories list several Puerto Rican options in Riverview, a sign that the appetite for Caribbean plates is spreading beyond Tampa’s core neighborhoods, according to MenuPix. Owners say their concept is designed to deliver street-food flavors in a format that fits lunch breaks, takeout runs and anyone who wants Puerto Rican fare that is easy to eat on the go.
