Casa d'paco in ❤
I would give 10 stars to this place if I could.
Service was awesome, staff is really friendly and helpfull, always smiling.
The food is out of this world, we loved everything we ate, it was delicious, the best food we had during this 9-days trip in USA.

Celebrated my fiancé's birthday here! Couldn't have picked a better spot. The host knew exactly what to do when I whispered to her that it was his birthday - she immediately told our waiter. The team came out with complimentary cake and candles and sang for him! Such a great atmosphere. The drinks were well-crafted, their seafood paella is delicious, and everything is reasonably priced.

Leave up to Newark NJ to nestle interesting restaurants in the most interesting places. This one doesn't fail. There are many Spaniard restaurant in the Newark area but I was looking for a tapas place.

We are welcomed in and immediately there is service. As we sit at the table. The bienvenidos and bread served instantly. Great start.

The caldo gallego was exquisite. Made to perfection with just enough ham greens and other essential ingredients. It was a good starter.

The Bombas de Barcelona is a tender croqueta with chorizo and a saffron aioli sauce. Delicate, flavorful and the sauce was spectacular.

We also had the boquerones. Garlicky tangy salty boquerones. Yum. We had the pulpo a Fiera. The smoked sweet pimentón was just right to the taste.

To round this up the Tabla's jamón ibérico was a treat along with the manchego cheese.

Above all, service was absolutely great. Very attentive staff with a great attitude. Always making sure things are good and refilling the wine glasses.

I was amazed at their strength in food selection. The tapas available are certain to please any palate. Give this place a try even if you have to drive. It is well worth it.

If I could give 6 stars, I would. Everything is delicious and the service is always great and friendly. Can’t wait to come back and try more on the menu! Highly recommend!

LITERALLY AMAZING!!! Cannot stress enough, the food is phenomenal, the crab cakes were to die for. Steven is a gem, I recommend going 10/10

Wow the customer service here is amazing they make you feel like they really do care about you! The food was amazing and also their margarita pitcher was really nice. We wanted more liquor in the margarita and they definitely delivered. I would go back! It's a small restaurant but really small but mighty if you know what I mean lol

The reviews are quite correct, the place is a five star. Service is superb, drinks are well mixed, and the food is just delicious. Room for improvement? I would serve bread warm. I guess I had to pick on something.

P.S. I visited a month later and the bread was warm indeed. Kudos to Casa d’Paco team, well done!

I had a great time here, all the tapas we ordered were really good and so were the drinks! This place is a little pricier but worth it a different experience. Also keep $5 in cash because this place a valet parking only. There were only like 1 or 2 vegetarian options. The two of us shared 5 tapas and had 1 drink each and the total was a little over a $100.

What a great place. Well thought out plan and design. I ordered 5 different tapas all were mouth watery delicious. The paella was outstanding. Every bite had so much seafood. My hubby is really picky about his flan and the flan was by far the best he ever had he ordered another piece to take home. It's definitely going to be a repeat spot for us. Enrique provided 5 star service and although he was our server every employee stopped by our table to bring our food or just take away empty plates. The entire staff are exceptionally hospitable.

I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT! the food is DELICIOUS and hits every single time.
The service is wonderful- shout out to my favorite guy, Henrique. He makes the best food
Recommendations and is overall a great human !

Atmosphere is amazing.

We had the most delicious dinner there yesterday! The garlic shrimp was the best we’ve ever had! Also, the flan was incredible! We were told all desserts homemade by the owner’s mom, what could be better!? Valet parking was easy as can be. Can’t wait to go back!!

We have been here now 3 times in 2 weeks. We are so incredibly delighted with this place. I mean the Good is truly amazing and the service is great. You need to try the Rollitos de Salmon which are my favorite but we've tried a variety of dishes and they all exceed expectations. You will not regret coming here.

I give this place a 10/10, food was great, and the service is a 10/10. Everyone walk out happy. Don't forget the valet parking was also great 👍 👌

Loved the "crab avocado"! Perfect for a hot summer day, downed with some chilled cava. The half avocado shell is stuffed with large chunks of crab meat, shrimp, egg whites and mayo. Really delicious and the service is fantastic.

It's in a residential neighborhood, in the middle of a block. We almost passed it lol

The main house has a bar and a few tables. The outdoor patio has more tables and a better space.

Enrique was so attentive and helpful to a couple of newbies to a tapas bar.

We ordered 3 tapas and the Paella.

Boquerones En Vinagreta - Basque white anchovies in a garlic and parsley vinaigrette - this was good, a bit more sour than I prefer.

Almejas Casa D'Paco - Little neck clams stuffed with caramelized onions, sauteed serrano ham and chorizo bits topped with pancetta and broiled - amazingly delicious!

Pulpo A Galega - galician style octopus served with paprika and olive oil - this was so tender and delicious, my only issue was the salt crystals were too big, I thought I bit into glass... Lol

Paella Casa D'Paco - so so so good! Actually taste the saffron unlike other places. Plenty of seafood.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the music they played. We will be back to try other tapas'!

The inside is small and cozy but don't let that fool you. The food is next level good and the service is amazing.

Good vibe, awesome food, with fun staff! We celebrated a birthday here. The valet service was awesome to start with, save us so much hassle from looking for parking.
There are a large selection of tapas and they were all really good. The paella was really good, the rice has so much flavor, with tons of seafood, it was a large portion! Would come back again.

First time here - and it’s excellent! Cool vibe and music. Friendly atmosphere and enjoyed the outdoor seating. We love the tapas - baby squid, chorizos and potatoes, ensalada with salmon, steak tips with shrimp, octopus salad, grilled tiger shrimp, empanadas, 1/2 avocado and crab spread and the dessert was Maria cookies soaked in chocolate. All of this paired with a lovely wine. Were we hungry? Heck yeah. Our guy is Sam. So nice, friendly and offered great suggestions. Staff was great and attentive. Check it out, please.

I really love coming here. I have been eating here since 2020 and each time I come it has never disappointed me. The owners make sure to change the menu to reflect their own style and flavor 😋 to each night's menu. The sangria is always a must. If you are debating whether to come and have dinner or a night out with friends this is the place for u. Follow them on Instagram to see specials and flemenco nights as well. Super cool when they add artists to perform. Make sure to give them a follow,but most importantly come and have a some tapas and see what it's all about.

Nice cozy place with a neighborhood feel. Everything we ordered was flavorful. My favorites were the octopus and the grilled tiger shrimp. The house salad was also pretty tasty, and I usually hate salad. Would definitely come back again to try the rest of the menu items.
