I’ve been to Pacifico a few times but this is the first time I’ve ordered more than just their tapas.
The tapas were delicious and there were a ton to pick from. Highly recommend the yucca fries. The pork belly was also good. Overall, we felt that the tapas prices were pretty high for what you get.
The entrees were actually priced somewhat fairly, and were delicious. The chicken was perfectly cooked and it went well with the potatoes, while the branzini was crispy and the mussel sauce flavorful.
Dessert was good but also pricey for the size of cake- I believe $10 per piece.
Their drinks are delicious as always, and on par with how much cocktails in neighboring restaurants cost.
Service was great as always and the ambiance is always great.

Delicious food! We sat on the bar for happy hour, had beer, Margaritas & tapas - Cauliflower, Fish Tacos, Chicken Enchilada, Arepa vegetariana. Every single dish was delicious. Loved the food. Bar tender Diana is very friendly & helpful. The sitting is cozy, lovely & warm ambiance. I recommend Pacifico & definitely will visit again.

Great dining experience the ambience is on point. We got a table outside by the heaters and it was great. The food was amazing and expensive but worth it. Plan to spend some money but your taste buds will love this place.
We got the fish tacos and they were great (3), oysters were great , pork belly was my favorite it was so tasty and perfectly cooked. Yukon fries were good , quesadillas were juicy and full of flavor I just think they could be bigger for the price. Salmon tarter was surprisingly good yes the salmon is raw but you won’t know because it’s full of Flavor. stay away from the calamari , for the price that’s way too small and that’s a bit disappointing, even the pork belly portion was bigger ! I think once they correct that it would be perfect.
Drinks were great also but twice servers tried to give us orders for other people , one person didn’t get his order asked for the manager and left. They need to get it together and number the tables to avoid this confusion but we had a 5 star experience regardless.

Happy hour done right - they no longer have oysters on happy hours but the food was very delicious. Happy hour goes from 3 to 6pm and you can only have it at the bar. We ordered fish taco and fries which were fresh and crispy! We also ordered sangria and margaritas off the happy hour menu - sangria was the only thing that was disappointing (it tasted watered down) Octopus was probably the best part of the meal! It was very well done. Overall, good atmosphere, good service and great food! Would recommend.

My favorite restaurant in New Haven. The food is always fresh, delicious, and presentation is gorgeous. Lovely cocktails. Friendly, un-rushed service.

Fantastic experience! We have been wanting to try Pacifico for a while. It definitely lived up to our expectations! Staff is super professional and friendly. Food is amazing. Really great Latin cuisine. Nice selection of choices. Drinks are also quite good!

The food is excellent especially the entrees and fish. The tapas portion are smaller and perfect for 2 people, but for groups I would recommend ordering more tapas than expected. And the drinks are very smooth but not as strong.
