Belleville​のベストタパス・小皿料理レストラン

Pizza was a little undercooked and the muscles came out a little cold but besides that everything was excellent and the service was phenomenal

This place is run at a high-level with the goal of always ensuring the diners enjoys their dining experience. Shortly after placing our order, we were informed that the kitchen had no more of the lamb dish to sell. However, a few minutes later, the manager came by and let us know that the kitchen was willing to prepare and cook one for us (probably from the stock allotted for the following day). A+ customer service, and the food never disappoints.

Casa di Paco Taberna brings a delightful blend of Spanish and Mediterranean cuisine to Newark's bustling Ironbound district. Tucked away at 73 Market Street, this family-owned establishment has become a notable destination for locals and visitors seeking authentic tapas and a warm dining atmosphere. The restaurant strikes an impressive balance between casual comfort and refined dining. The exposed brick walls and wooden beams create a rustic yet sophisticated environment, while the intimate lighting sets a perfect mood for date nights and family gatherings. The cozy space never feels cramped, and the bar area adds lively energy to the overall setting. The Casa di Paco menu showcases the best Spanish cuisine while incorporating modern touches. Standout dishes include their paella valenciana, which arrives at the table in a traditional pan, loaded with perfectly cooked seafood and saffron-infused rice. The tapas selection deserves special mention – from classic patatas bravas to innovative octopus preparations, each small plate demonstrates careful attention to tradition and presentation. House specialties worth trying: - The gambas al ajillo feature plump shrimp swimming in garlicky olive oil that begs to be soaked up with crusty bread. - Their croquetas de jamón achieve the perfect balance of crispy exterior and creamy interior - The grilled pulpo (octopus) is remarkably tender and well-seasoned. The restaurant also offers an impressive selection of Spanish wines, including several excellent Riojas and Albariños. Their sangria is particularly noteworthy – not too sweet and generously filled with fresh fruit. Casa di Paco Taberna earns 4.5 out of 5 stars. It successfully delivers an authentic Spanish dining experience while maintaining its own unique character. The combination of well-executed classics, innovative specials, and warm hospitality makes it a standout choice in Newark's competitive dining scene.
