Ed. Note: I’m told soft opening will be around January 6th but that’s not in stone yet, will update when confirmed.
From a press release:
“Javier Candon’s Joselito Casa de Comidas is an intimate 70 seat eatery reminiscent of the timeless establishments found throughout Spain at the turn of the century.
It is an homage to Javier’s late father, Jose, who enjoyed long, leisurely family meals at restaurants that had an “old school” feel and a warm, casual, and inviting ambiance. “Joselito” was Jose’s childhood nickname, as well as the name of one of his favorite bullfighters and a popular child actor in the 50s in Spain.
Our menu features traditional family recipes from Spain, but prepared with the modern techniques of today. Most all dishes on the menu are offered in three sizes—tapa (equivalent to an appetizer size), media ración (entree) and ración (family style portion)—so that guests can craft their own culinary journey.
David Sierra will helm Joselito’s kitchen. He worked with Javier as sous chef at SER, and prior to that he was at Fiola Mare and Taberna del Alabardero. His complete bio is below. (more…)
