"This is my favorite in Panama. We love the great outdoor seating! The cocktails, filets and risotto was beyond expectations. I would for sure recommend this to all who are coming to this area. Lucas was so attentive and nice!"

"I’m so glad I came across this restaurant on my last day in Panama City. It’s hands down the best place I’ve tried here so far! The prices are reasonable, and both the food and drinks are top-notch. If you’re visiting Panama City, make sure to eat here at least once—you won’t regret it!"
Anni Chen
"This was my first time in Panama, and this was by far one of the best places I visited while I was here. The atmosphere was inviting and unique. The staff were friendly and very attentive. The food was absolutely phenomenal from the start. The appetizers, the main meal, and the desserts were all mouth-wateringly delicious and well thought out. Along with the cocktails, which were well balanced and extremely satisfying from the first sip to the last. I give this place a 10 out of 10 and encourage anyone who visits Panama to make this one of the places you stop and visit while you are here."
