A good restaurant on many fronts. Good menu choices. Good/ authentic Spanish food. Good service. Clean. Friendly/ customer oriented. Ample parking. One negative - some dining booths ( for two) are limited in space which is uncomfortable even for small people.

Went for dinner for their opening night. Very impressed with the quality and taste of the food. We had chicken paella, filet steak wrapped in bacon, Chicken Chesapeake served over fettuccine alfredo, and the hot dip consisting of shrimp, melted mozzarella, cream cheese, and Old Bay in a bread bowl. Also tasted their red sangria, which was delicious. I’m looking forward to trying the white sangria next time.

My only suggestion is reconsider the seating that’s currently in the restaurant. All 4 of us were slightly uncomfortable while eating dinner and our backs were hurting as we left. I would love to see new booths that are comfortable, and you don’t feel the other person moving around on the seat behind you.

We’ll certainly be back again to try more dishes!

Tutti Paella is an absolute gem and a must-visit for any food enthusiast. I had the pleasure of bringing my friend to celebrate her birthday on the first day of its opening, and we were both blown away by the exceptional quality of the food and service. It was our first visit, but it certainly won't be our last.

The paella we had was hands down the best I've ever tasted - packed with flavor, made with fresh and high-quality ingredients, and served in generous portions. The Tapas were equally delightful, especially the Gambas al Ajillo and Gambas al Coco - a true culinary delight.

Moreover, I cannot commend your team enough for their impeccable service and the warm, inviting ambiance you have created at Tutti Paella. Special thanks to Nicole, our server, who went above and beyond to ensure that we had a memorable dining experience.

Once again, thank you Santos, Carla, and the entire team for the outstanding hospitality and culinary masterpieces. Rest assured, my friend and I will be returning soon to indulge in more of your delectable offerings.

Food Pretty Good but A Very Strange Dining Experience

Before I begin, know the food was good. No complaints with the taste or preparation of any of the dishes we ordered other than maybe wishing there was more heat to the chorizo dishes, but that's just a preference issue. Our party ordered three varieties of paella, 4 tapas plates, an italian entree and a salad. The logistics surrounding the meal however, had our party scratching our heads from the moment we sat down through to the packing of our leftovers.

Our party of six, medium-built adults had called days ahead and made a reservation. We let them know on the phone we would be ordering paella (understanding this often requires notice), we would not be in a hurry and would be happy streaming tapas/drinks as that was prepared.

Our issues:
- None of the tables seemed appropriate for parties larger than 4 despite tapas/paella typically being a social-gathering food. Six adults in our booth had the aisle-seated diners uncomfortably hanging onto the edge of their bench with one of our guests only being half-situated in front of the table as his bench was offset from aligning with the table due to an outcropping in the wall. This might be understandable if we were last-minute walk-ins or if the restaurant was packed but this was not the case.
- Most members of our party are used to tapas being small, bite-sized items each patron would typically order 3 or 4 of. However, browsing the menu, the pricing seemed to indicate this might not be the case so we tried to inquire of our server what was appropriate... and so began the awkward interactions with our server who reacted to every interaction as though we had presented her with a complex math equation that was our problem to solve. We decided to start with 4 for the table and work from there. Three of the four arrived, and were sufficiently-sized (think typical appetizer plate) for all of us. Since we were not billed for the 4th, we ignored its absence.
- As the tapas began arriving to our table, between all of our plates and drinks, it was clear there would be some difficulty fitting everything but instead of even attempting to find space, the server simply handed the plates directly to us to sort out. Obviously, this isn't a huge issue but *was* a few minutes of awkward interruption as the party juggled plates around. More worrisome however, we still had 3 large paella pans plus other entrees on their way that wouldn't fit on the table even without our drinks/plates. Every step of the way it felt like the uncomfortably small table was somehow our fault/problem.
-The server seemed hesitant to make an appearance, likely sensing the awkward/impossible situation herself even though we made cheery accomodation at every turn and never mentioned it directly. Drink refills were only required once or twice but were somehow as awkward/confusing as the tapas order and some guests were missed.
-Other issues were ridiculously minor but added to the experience, always feeling like an awkward mismatch of space/geometry... example being our meal capping off with a single carryout bag for three obvious couples, and even one container not fitting into that bag without being positioned on its side.

All in all, the food tasted good, I'm happy the area has something new and different from other places but I probably won't return unless it was with a small party. Also, the Tapas section of the menu seems like it should be renamed "Appetizers". Unless they are *very* hungry, a single person probably should not order more than one or two.

Love this place. The paella was amazing. Nicole's service was excellent. She was able to talk to all the dishes and offer excellent wine pairing options.

Went around noon 1pm for lunch. Waited at the door and was ignored by staff at the bar laughing and conversing with other patrons for quite some time (to the point we almost walked out). The rice in the paella tasted bland and almost as if It was literally microwaved, like the microwavable pouched rice. Ordered the seafood pealla and we were given the chicken chorizo mix instead. The chicken and chorizo itself was extremely dry and lacking in flavor as well. There is a much more amazing place to get tapas and paella in newark for similar pricing, this places prices are silly expensive for quality you are getting. Honestly for all i could tell our meal had been microwaved from leftovers from the night before due to coming in around an hour after opening. Our server seemed to be rushing us during the entire meal even though the entire place was almost empty. This place isn't going to last long. Don't waste your $.
