Newark Restaurant Cracks Yelp ‘Top 50’ List For North Jersey

NEWARK, NJ — A Newark restaurant was recently included on a list of Yelp’s “Top 50 Places to Eat in North Jersey.”

This year, Casa d’Paco at 73 Warwick Street in Newark cracked the top 50, which includes well-known eateries across Morris, Essex, Bergen, Hudson, Warren, Union and Passaic counties. See the full list.

Here’s how the tapas bar and restaurant – which opened in 2015 – describes itself on Yelp:

“At Casa d'Paco, we create a new weekly menu to give you an alternative selection of items to fall in love with every time you return. Each recipe is innovative in its own special way, skillfully handcrafted by our very own Chef Paco. We serve classic Galician style dishes such as Pulpo a Feira and Chipirones, as well as more contemporary tapas from different cuisines with a touch of flair of our own.”

The restaurant’s business owner is a Rutgers Newark alum, the website states:

“After graduating with his business degree from Rutgers Newark, Angel found himself working the regular nine to five career in finance and management. Completely uninspired by his work, Angel took the biggest leap of faith, inspired by his father to open what he calls his best work of art until today, Casa d'Paco.”
