    Very small place and the service was good until they became overwhelmed by customers. Waited for over an hour for our main course, which never came. We had to leave without tasting what my wife really wanted to try.

    Casa de Paco was a nice little date spot to go to for Valentines. My girlfriend and I somewhat enjoyed the food but the service was visibly overwhelmed and performances dropped. Overall a nice place to enjoy a nice meal.

    10/10 experience. We had just about one of every tapa on the menu and everything was amazing. Highly recommend the shrimp. Service was great. Definitely recommend.

    Service was slow, food was subpar, and the ambiance was lacking. If this place was good it was a while a go. The metal chairs need to go, I asked the only waiter fix the wobbly table and for bread never got either. Paid $5 dollars for valet which all all he does is double park my car, lol.

    Third time here; the first time was amazing, everything was great. But on the last 2 visits, the food was just OK, dishes didn't arrive hot, and service was slow. This place seems to be chronically understaffed.

    We returned to Casa d'Paco after a great previous experience. On a snowy night, we had the cozy place almost to ourselves. Croquetas de marisco, langostinos, a ribeye steak and a bottle of Marques de Riscal Reserva, all served with friendly efficiency -- a fine way to spend the evening. We'll be back.
