Spanish Tavern Newark

Came in from Boston and went there bc it came highly recommended. Had dinner at the bar bc we did not have reservations... Best move ever! The bartender (Juan??? was super attentive and very informative about the menu!(And clearly he did great work with the drinks bc I can't recall his name right now! The meal starts with a serving of soup (delicious btw and some of the best dinner rolls I've ever eaten... and that's saying a lot bc I love love love some good bread! The paella was superb! The filet mignon wrapped in bacon...amazing! Don't forget about the Passion Fruit Mojitos! Definitely worth the visit!!!

We went last night for my mother in laws birthday and it was amazing. We got there at 5:30 on a Saturday. It was all amazing, food was delicious, hot, and simply perfect. We were a party of 9 and the service was 100% on point with all our needs and waiters were very nice and friendly. Also made sure we were good and our drink were filled to the top. I have been here before and it never disappoints, food and service is consistent. I recommend Spanish Tavern to all for all occasion or just because. Thank you Spanish Tavern for a amazing night, see you soon!!! P.s. cappuccino's were so good too!!

Great food and great service. I think it easily deserves a 4.5 stars. Removing half if star because bread was somehow 'old ' or definitely not on Spanish or Portuguese standards. Sauces were also good but felt a little bit weirdly too similar. On the good part, great selection of wine and not overly expensive, expect aroubd 30 to 50 usd a bottle. Monkfish was perfectly cooked and prawns were delicious. Safran rice was good but not that special. I would definitely go back to check other plates. Consider around 70 to 80 usd per person with drinks and tips included.

Excellent service and very good food. Had dinner on Wednesday with a party of 5. Mario Trindade was a wonderful waiter with lots of stories and great interaction. I thought the food was good but not great across the board. Chorizo was on point, shrimp was just okay and I didn’t care for the squid tentacles. I had cubed halibut with salmon and shrimp in a kind of curry that was very good. The lamb chops were excellent.
