Welcome | Bienvenido
Joselito is an homage to my late father, Jose Candon Perez who together with my mother, showed me that some of the best memories of life are created with family and friends over long, leisurely meals. Joselito is an intimate Spanish restaurant located on Capitol Hill, but reminiscent of the timeless establishments my father adored during his lifetime in Spain. These are also the cafes where luminaries such as Neruda, Hemingway, and Garcia Lorca spent countless hours eating, drinking, and enjoying the beauty of life. I invite you to do the same at Joselito. Looking forward to your visit, Javier
Award-winning Executive Chef David Sierra has also crafted Joselito’s new tasting menu. This indulgent feast with diverse dishes meant to be shared provides a memorable communal experience.
Joselito’s menus, much of which will change weekly, also include shareables, sides, sweets and of course a stellar selection of Spanish wines curated by GM and Sommelier Gustavo Iniesta.

I recently went to Joselito for a food tour. I've never been before, but it's really close to my home. We went there just for appetizers and drinks and it was our first stop. The cod fritters were awesome. My fiancé, who I went on the tour with, does not like seafood at all. But she enjoy the cod fitters and said it wasn't too fishy. The drinks were made pretty quickly and the staff was very friendly. Enjoyed my experience there.
I love this place! Everything we order was fantastic. I love their Arroz Caldoso de Pescados y Maricos and have been craving it again. Their mocktails are super yummy. I will be coming back to sample more of their menu.
This place is really quite special. Fantastic Spanish Tapas prepared with love and an upscale attention to detail, presentation, authenticity, and flavor profile. Cocktails are well-balanced, fun, and diverse. The service in this quaint cafe-like restaurant is top-notch. This place is a gem in the Eastern Market area.
