Meson Madrid, the seminal Spanish restaurant is back after some downtime in Palisades Park. Closed since at least early March of last year (Read Story), a new team is at the helm of the family-style casual restaurant.

Management graduated from Culinary Institute of America and has experience at many types of restaurants in NYC, including one with a Michelin star.

Offering a menu (View Menu) that is very much seafood driven — plenty of meat dishes too — plus tapas and more.

They still offer their famous paella, the traditional Spanish rice dish. There is a 20 minute wait for the dish, as they cook everything fresh — crafted using house stock, sofrito and different seafood and more — depending on the style. It’s served on a small tabletop stove to keep the paella hot.

Currently they are open only for dinner Monday thru Saturday from 5:00pm till 10:00pm.
