My favorite! – On a warm nite it is nice to dine outside and is one of my favorite restaurents in Chicago. The service is polite and knowledgable.
Have to disagree with eatsallover I say Please PASS THE WINE to me!! Many people are very skeptical about matching wine with Mexican cuisine ( I was the first time I dined here)! After 1/2 a dozen visits I'm inclined to skip the tequila and PASS THE WINE!! The ownver, Vincent matches wines with all the specials of the week and will offer suggestions for whatever you are eating. I have found the waitsraff to be very knowedgable and accomodating at recommending wines that will complement the delicious cuisine. Try it before yo... read more
Skip the wine idea – Sorry but wine just doesn't go with Mexican food, even though these guys say so. I've eaten here many times and the main courses are very authentic and good, if your looking for a burrito don't come here or you will be very disappointed, this is the real mexican food. The wait staff is pompous and needs to be replaced, the seating is tight and it is a bit noisy, and yeah add some tequila to the margarita's. The appetizers are expensize and not worth it. The main entries are very good, as are the desserts... read more
overpriced – Too expensive for the level of quality, creativity, taste and overall value of each of our meals. The 9 dollar margaritas were watery and sour. The ambience was poor and our waitress snobby. Twenty dollars for 7 shrimp and a handful of white rice? Come on.
AWESOME! – I can't seem to get enough of Salpicon! I am on the road 3 days a week, but when I return to Chicago I can't wait to dine at Salpicon and get my fix!! Incredible food and presentations, good value and THE MOST AWESOME wine list in Chi-town!! The servers are quite knowedgable and very personable. Vince and Priscilla run a great establishment!!
delish – I lived in Southern California for 11 years and no mexican restaurant there beats Salpicon. Enough said-
A Memorable Occasion – We celebrated my husband's 40th birthday last night with four of our friends at Salpicon and were VERY DELIGHTED!! We arrived 15 minutes early and were promptly seated (not an easy feat for a small and popular restaurant on a busy Saturday night at 8:00). We ordered 5 different appetizers to share and each one was better than the last (seviche, queso fundido, prawns, stuffed jalapenos and one of the best crabcakes I've ever had! Our entrees were equally delicious; filet of beef in a spicy chile sauce, ... read more
Top-rate Mexican – The decor is very warm, bright and fun. The service and the food are outstanding although food quality varies from dish to dish. They also have a large tequila selection. I wouldn't recommend this spot for children but it can be fun with a small or large group.
Good but Small – Large tequila selection, small seating area. Good variety of traditional and noveau mexican dishes. Upscale atmosphere and prices. Great service.
