Our Story

Located on Randolph Street’s Restaurant Row, La Josie is an upscale-casual Mexican restaurant and agave bar in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood that opened in May 2017. Chef/Owner José “Pepe” Barajas, who is also the proprietor of El Solazo on the South Side, offers creative and thoughtful dishes influenced by all regions of Mexico, including some of the recipes from his family’s Jalisco table, at the bilevel restaurant with three bars and rooftop dining. An homage to his late aunt Josefina Villegas, a kind-hearted and hard-working street taco entrepreneur, La Josie welcomes guests with a modern yet casual atmosphere in which to unwind after a long workday, celebrate a special occasion, or enjoy a creative cocktail and snacks, even at a late hour.
