Food Driven Since 2023...

Since opening our doors on September 15, 2023, Bocaditos Mexican Cuisine has been passionately dedicated to bringing the authentic flavors of Mexico to Chicago. Though new to the restaurant business, our commitment to fresh, scratch-made dishes and family recipes has quickly garnered attention and praise.

In our first year, we've already received an award from Restaurant Guru and sold out during Restaurant Week 2024. Our journey is just beginning, and we're excited to continue sharing our love for Mexican cuisine with our growing community of guests.
