Bocaditos Chicago

DrinkWest Loop · Mexican Community-sourced, unverified
📍 1140 W Madison St, Chicago, IL 60607

Bocaditos Chicago is a family-owned West Loop spot that treats "Modern Mexican" as an actual kitchen philosophy, not a menu-description cliche.

$$
The butter lime shrimp app is the standout starter, and the margarita flight is the easy way to sample the whole cocktail list at once.

Everything's scratch-made, from the salsas to the handcrafted cocktail list, and it shows up most clearly in the butter lime shrimp app -- the dish that gets ordered at nearly every table -- and the margarita flight, which is the fastest way to figure out which of the house margaritas is actually yours before committing to a full one. This isn't a taqueria; it's a sit-down restaurant and bar that happens to be in West Loop's increasingly crowded Mexican-food lane, and it earns its spot there.

Happy hour runs Sunday through Thursday, 3-6pm, discounted drinks and apps. The kitchen also stays open later than most of the neighborhood on weekends -- 11am-11pm Friday, 10am-11pm Saturday -- which matters if you're trying to eat dinner in West Loop after 9 without a reservation.
