14 Best Spanish Restaurants Around D.C. | Eater DC

"Truly an Arlington gem, native Spaniard Javier Candon’s Ser is a great option for tapas, Spanish raw bar dishes, and even colorful salads. It also offers its share of theatrical dishes, from dramatically chopped suckling pig to large-format paellas. The restaurant exudes hospitality and has ambitious drinks as well. Ten years in, Ser has served 200,000 sangrias, shucked over 300,000 oysters, and hand-rolled more than 600,000 croquetas. A newly constructed covered patio for 100 debuts this spring. Ser’s Capitol Hill sibling Joselito recently closed, but the team hopes to open another Spanish spot in Arlington." - Tierney Plumb
