A great experience all around. Food was excellent. Especially loved the tostaditas de tinga and the mole poblano.

We were out of town and it was our first visit. Our server was helpful and knowledgeable. Presentation was spectacular and the food was wonderful! A long ways up from the Chili Colorado that shows up on the menus of Mexican restaurants all over our city (St. Louis). My husband proclaimed it was the best meal he had ever eaten.

We have been to Salpicon several times before (including some special dinners for celebrations) and always swoon over the experience. Everything we had was great, and while we sat at the bar for our experience, it was absolutely great! I ordered a Mescal flight which was a lot of fun, while my wife enjoyed the delicious margaritas. A very, very good experience.

The taste was superb. Food quality was great I loved my Huevos Motuleos and will be back sometime soon. Foods are ron the whole. The food was cooked well enough and the taste was superb. So if you are coming here, enjoy their service of the staffs taking you to your table then before ordering run. It will be cheaper and a much better experience. My partner's always like Salpicon and she is crazy about it. I can write only about one specific thing herejust one specific thing, yup, my x bought me a table which is similar to the one at this restaurant after finishing off our dinner here wohooooo! I am the luckiest lady! :) Merlot is what I was expecting on that evening but Blanc is the wine we shared. Now Blanc is going to be one of my favorite wines.

Honest food. I had the Tinga Poblana and I could find no fault with it, nice portions and the flavors were to die for. Can't wait to go back again. Lovely food, we ordered mostly off the specials menu. Every dish was well thought out, well cooked, and well-presented. Nice decor, stylish and crowded in a good way. Staff were great, especially the head waiter who was onto everything.A great place to eat out with the family especially in summer when the place is really buzzing. The staff are always friendly and the service very good. An Excellent place to hang on with your family members. I have heard mixed thoughts on this place from a friend and I recently dined there and was very surprised.

Delicious food, great atmosphere. We most certainly will return and will be telling all of our friends of the wonderful experience. The food was unbelievable, like the decor and ambience. By far the best Mexican restaurants I have been to in Chicago. The flavors of the curries taste so au

Excellent service and very good food. The foods are very well presented, fresh and in good sized portions for the prices. We asked for a Tostaditas de Tinga and got exactly what we asked for. The Tostaditas de Tinga is unusual, which is why we chose it. All my friends appreciated for the great food we had. You will find it pleasure to be in Salpicon Restaurant. Love dinning at Salpicon, definitely a place where they have very nice and good service. Been there twice, both for special occasion, we just loved it being there. Chiles Rellenos is definitely my favorite. They have a specialty that you need to pre order, the dishes are fully packed with flavor and when they start serving you. The meat just falls apart from the bone, and are juicy.
