Went here for lunch and it was great. We were really happy and full after our meal. I was a little worried that it might be one of those tourist places where the food is okay but it wasn’t. The food was delicious! Our server Javier was wonderful. He was welcoming, friendly and attentive but not overly. The place has a fun vibe and when we find ourselves in Panama City again we would love to go here for dinner. We would imagine it would be a fun place. But whether for lunch or dinner I would recommend it. The views were beautiful, food and drinks delicious and service was excellent! This is a gret Panamenian restaurant with a nice ocean view (from the second floor). I tried thier authentic traditional food and it was excellent. The portions were good too. Their prices were on the higher end, but not that bad. Their drinks were good also. I recommend it. Went here for lunch…The food was amazing full of flavor. The atmosphere was nice. Javier was absolutely amazing and very kind. I even got a pepper sauce to go. Would recommend this place to anyone vacationing here in Panama 🇵🇦

An unforgettable experience! The service was quite fast, and the attention was first-class. The staff's excellent teamwork is evident. The food was delicious, and the Sabroso beer was an excellent choice. The entertainment... wow, wow! The host was very professional and knew how to keep the audience entertained throughout the night, but we really enjoyed. Super class.

Had a blast for my birthday here! Entertainment was GREAT, food was good and the place is beautiful. Jeffrey did an awesome job with customer interaction/entertainment. Had fun while eating. Javier, our server did an excellent job. He was prompt with serving meals and removing used utensils from the tables. Money well spent. Definitely RECOMMEND!
