Smash Jibarito is finally settling into Humboldt Park’s Paseo Boricua, turning a once-vacant corner into a vibrant spot for Puerto Rican-inspired smashburgers. After years of popping up at bars and breweries, they’re creating a family-friendly hangout with calming café vibes and a true Chicago-Hispanic flair. The menu is packed with their signature jibarito burgers—think fried plantains instead of bread—plus hand-cut chips, plantain fries, and more. No alcohol here, just good food and community spirit. It’s a huge win for local food lovers and a real celebration of neighborhood roots. Who’s excited to try their take on the classic jibarito? #Food #HumboldtPark #PaseoBoricua
