New San Antonio burger spot Smash'd takes over Hello Paradise space
New homegrown burger spot Smash'd has begun serving inside the former home of Pearl-area casual concepts Hello Paradise and Summer Camp, the business' owners revealed in social media posts. Smash'd opened quietly at 520 E. Grayson St. about two weeks ago under the leadership of Brandon Peterson, known for his work at now-shuttered south-of-downtown barbecue joint Bandit BBQ. Tiki-inspired Hello Paradise and casual burger-and-coney Summer Camp both tried to operate from the largely outdoor location, but neither lasted long.
