The food is good. The vegetarian options are limited. Don't come for dinner, it's too expensive. Lunch prices are much more reasonable. Would recommend coming for brunch, since there is a good deal. The yucca fries are my absolute favorite thing to get here, and they're the only reason I continue to come back. There is outdoor seating and it's super nice!

Had a night out here with friends and was pretty impressed with its COVID-safe indoor dining without compromising good food and drinks.The house sangria is amazing - comes in pomegranate or Prosecco flavors. We got one of each and the Prosecco was a really refreshing well-balanced drink. The pomegranate sangria had too powerful of a fruit flavor.The ceviche was really delicious! Loved the like and juices that soak up. Octopus and calamari were delish!!! They do have good seafood. Oh and the platter of oysters were quite tasty.Other entree-wise the guac was ok. Cauliflower not bad but had a rich sauce. The other shrimp dishes were good too.I really liked the tapas here and would revisit. Not badly priced. In general I would recommend sticking to the seafood dishes because they do a better job at those!

Absolutely delicious food and drinks !!

My food was amazing highly recommended it the best food I had in a long time!!!!the is nice the service is incredible!!!

Had a great time with family and friends today! Delicious tapas! Come and check it out!

My husband and I moved out of New Haven, but Pacifico used to be our favorite restaurant. We decided to come for dinner this weekend while we were in town and it is still the same amazing place. The food is just as good and the servers were so friendly. Thank you for staying so consistent through the years. We recommend the mojitos and salmon.

Took my wife here for a night out and we enjoyed ourselves a lot. We shared a bottle of wine that our waiter recommended very impressed by the service. We shared some plates and it was just enough to satisfy us. Cauliflower and ceviche were very good.

After dinner last night, I will be coming back! The food was excellent and the staff was so helpful with recommendations. I really enjoyed the seafood paella. Although we shared a pitcher of sangria, I am excited to try their mojitos the next time. Thank you for your service!

Amazing food, amazing staff. Been here multiple times and it never disappoint. The guac is ahhhhmazing. The drinks are well made.

I really enjoyed this restaurant and it was one of the greatest first time experiences that I had there. I actually went back 2 to 3 times afterwards because I like the food so much.There is a lot of quality and care with in the food, professional employees and care for the customers. It’s also one of the most diverse places I’ve seen in Connecticut as far as customers go.The food pricing is really good, you’re paying for quality but it’s not like they’re overly charging you. The food does remind me of Fridays except with extremely high standards and in the realms of nothing less than fine dining. It’s not a knock against this restaurant but they really incorporate the fine dining elements very well.The wait time for food needs to be worked on. The food wasn’t as great as the first time I had it but still an A+ going to an A-, which is not a problem for me. They do attract really good business so as long as they keep the consistency of really great food, great customer service and work on their speed when they’re busy but on the side of quality over quick production, It’s worth coming back to over and over which I have clearly done.
