Boricua! Just 4 miles west of downtown, Humboldt Park is a vibrant, simmering ethno-dimensional taco wrapped around a bustling 219-acre park. Historically diverse, culturally magnificent, with Scandinavian and Polish roots, Humboldt's now the beating heart of Chicago’s mighty Puerto Rican community. Suffice it to say, we’ve got it all: jibaritos, pierogis, ancient oaks, cold beer, cumbia, slow-pitch, good people.
Equally stunning and decrepit.
The aesthetic may veer a little "Ye Olde Route 66 Knick-Knack Decorated Bar Place," but the excellent specials, more than fair prices and tacos wrapped up in piping hot homemade tortillas are legit. Feels weird to say this but don't sleep on the salads! Large enough to share but good enough you won't want to. And for just $6 any day of the week, they offer a get-drunk-cheap-fast "No Bullshit!" special that includes a taco, cheapo tallboy + a shot of Evan Williams.
