Fodor's Review:

Anyone who does authentic Mexican in Chicago operates in the shadow of Frontera Grill's Rick Bayless, which makes it easier for those in the know to snag a table at Salpicon. Chef Priscila Satkoff grew up in Mexico City and her renditions of Oaxacan mole pork and grilled fish with salsa fresca have unforced flare. Wash 'em down with a belt of one of 100 tequilas or 800 vintage wines. Once you try the Mexican-style Sunday brunch, with dishes like skirt steak and eggs, you'll never go back to eggs Benedict.

We did not need a reservation. The service was attentive and knowleable without being in your face..very friendly.
Food was super and very authentic. I would love to go back for dinner.
Incredible wine list which caters to all price ranges.
