    We fell in love with tapas a few years ago. Casa d'Paco is our "go to" in NJ. We enjoyed everything we ate. Love the croquetas jamon as they melt in your mouth! This visit we had some of their specials including pollo con camerones and pollo fiorentina. Sangria rounds the delicious food off! Parking is horrendous in this area so luckily the offer valet parking which is much appreciated.

    We were attending a concert at Pru and grabbed a reservation for two. Underwhelmed when the Uber pulled up - restaurant seemed very small and tight (they do have valet parking for $5!). Once inside, we were escorted out a side door to a larger back dining room. The restaurant was packed, filled with soccer fans watching a game. You couldn’t hold a conversation because of the noise, fans cheering, the TV. We sat for close to 20 minutes before a waiter arrived. We quickly ordered a couple drinks and four or five plates of food. Now to the amazing part…the fools was PHENOMENAL!! I can’t speak more highly to the quality, presentation and taste!! The clams and shrimp in a garlic wine sauce should win awards! We could have eaten 5 of the avocado stuffed with crab meat tapas. The tabla, with cheese and meats was fine lacked some “juzz”. Still tasty. Throw on a couple different variety of olives. The chicken and mushrooms…scrumptious! Run, don’t walk to this lovely restaurant! Don’t judge a book by its cover.

    Excellent service, a bit noisy, and they should turn down the music volume. Recommended.

    Excellent tapas place. Sangrias were good although a bit pricey. Very good ambience. Has valet service which is a must in that area. We will definitely be going back.

FAQs

Casual dress is the guide, comfortable, everyday clothes are appropriate for dining at Casa d'Paco.

The menu is tapas-style small plates, while the paella is generously portioned, guests say the paella is easily enough for two or even three people, and large enough for three or four when shared with tapas.

Sunday is a standout, Casa d'Paco runs a Sunday limited paella (seafood, steak, or black truffle), and guests praise the paella and fresh prawns served that day.

Yes, Casa d'Paco's intimate lighting, cozy dining room, and many guests' anniversary and Valentine's visits make it a lovely spot for a special evening.

Casa d'Paco is at its calmest early on a Tuesday evening, guests note 4pm/early-evening reservations left the room quiet and relaxed, while game nights (World Cup) bring a much livelier crowd.

Casa d'Paco feels warm and intimate, exposed brick, wooden beams and soft lighting create a Spanish tapas-bar vibe, with a lively bar area and occasional DJs or game screenings; the back dining room can be a quieter option.
