Something new and upscale is coming to Pilsen.
Humito 18 is the name of a new concept in the works at 939 W 18th Street. It comes from Lazaro Cerdan, the owner of Ahuevo in West Loop. Right now, an opening date is not set for the location.
“Built with intention. A space where every detail matters… from the cocktails to the food, the music to the energy in the room. A place made for long conversations, shared plates, late nights, and one more round. We’re not trying to be the biggest. Just one of the best experiences you’ll have. HUMITO,” says the description on their website.
Right now, there is not a menu available online. However, from pictures it looks to have the style of a high-end cocktail bar, with drinks like whiskey on the rocks. It is described as an “intimate dining experience.”
The restaurant will be on the south side of W 18th Street, near the corner of S Sangamon Street. This is close to Chocolat Uzma, as well as Simone’s Grill. The Halsted Street Metra station is a short walk from the storefront.
Humito 18 only has a website right now, and no social media. What Now Chicago has reached out to Cerdan and is awaiting comment.
