Went to lunch at Iberia in Newark for the first time yesterday with my daughter who now lives in the Ironbound section and several others. We were disappointed in the food, especially considering that there are neighboring Spanish/Portugese restaurants with much better food. The service was acceptable and prompt, though not overly friendly. This seems like a restaurant that is... more

Went last Saturday night. Ordered a pitcher of sangria. The pitcher was 3/4 full with ice. On the second request, I asked the server if they could put just a little ice in the bottom. The pitcher came back without any ice but he added a side glass with ice. Perfect. However, the cost of the sangria on the menu... more

I am so disappointed in this place. I went there last night for dinner at about 8pm. The staff was extremely rude. I have honestly never ate at a place with such terrible service. The waiter acted as if he was annoyed that we came. At approx 9:15 they turned on all the lights and were almost kicking us out.... more

We arrived in the late afternoon, and only a few tables were occupied. Immediately after we were seated, we were handed a wine list, and a server brought salads to the table (good, but... more

I've dined here occasionally for over 15 years. Their seafood paella is great, as well as the seafood for two. Sometimes they have really great specials on twin lobsters. However, some dishes are overly greasy, like the chicken with garlic which is drenched with oil. more

The only people that will say that this place is good is the owner or the owners mother. Service is irate. It's as though they are doing you a favor by letting you eat there. Rude and pushy would be another accurate description. And let us not forget the reason that we dine out in the first place...THE FOOD! My... more
