Pad Thai without peanut sauce? Pad Thai with a hot sauce? Really? We certainly like spicy food, but Pad Thai is not intended to be a spicy and is supposed to have ground peanuts and a peanut sauce. Fail. Curry dish had an extremely thin consistency with no discernable coconut milk. Fail. Both of these dishes were okay, but not correctly described on the menu. Drinks were really good. Their maracuya caiparinha was excellent. I would definitely return to drink, just not eat.

We went there last week for lunch and wouldn’t recommend it, small menu only a few options. We ordered a Chimichanga, Tacos, Coco Loco and a Piña Colada. Not bad but not great either... The tacos were basically lettuce, the chimichanga was good, thought the Coco Loco was gonna be sweet turns out it’s sour, again not bad but not great...definitely not a chef restaurant just fast food for a high price. Hi Constanza! We're sorry to hear your experience at the restaurant didn't fulfill your expectations. We'll definitely take on your feedback as we're continually looking for ways to improve the restaurant, especially seeing as we're still in the early days!We hope you can return in the future, perhaps even for breakfast or dinner.

Stayed next door at Turtle Beach House and ate 2 dinners out of 6 at Island Plantation and most lunches at their beach bar across the street directly on the beach, which is also great to chill and watch the surf.

Friendly and warm staff and service, great pizzas, and also best Pina Coladas I've ever had!Dear Healthk7,Hello and sunny greetings from all of us at Island Plantation!First, thank you so much for taking the time to share your positive experiences with everyone!

Being in Bocas during off season (mid May), we patiently waited for this restaurant to be open. We could view it daily from our room Balcony at the Tropical Suites hotel. The tables out on the dock into the water, the cloth napkins and the promise of French food and lobster kept us waiting. Cash only was okay too. Finally, we got to eat there only to discover that they did not have lobster. Unfortunately, lobster comprised many of their dishes. I had the shrimp/calamari skewers. Shrimp was well seasoned but the calamari was so tough I had to stab it from afar to get my fork into it. My husband had chicken which was small and greasy - to the point he is feeling the aftermath this morning. We both chose vegetables which appeared to be a variety but were so over cooked, you really could not tell. A pile of mush that was inedible. If they had real French food, it might be better but there is much better food to be had from places that don’t make claims to be what they are not. Too bad. We think the owners are a young couple since we saw them pull up on a boat on Sunday. We wish them good luck for the future.Thank you for your visit,First of all, yes we are French and offering French cuisine with locals and fresh products.Sorry you had to wait for our opening hours from 11am till 11pm to come for dinner.Sorry, that you couldn't try our lobster dishes but in Bocas del Toro we respect the nature and let the lobster breed for few months. Sorry that you didn't realize we offered other option and special dishes to replace the ones missing (seafood pasta, grilled fish and tropical burger).Sorry that you didn't appreciate our dishes such as the Roasted chicken with is a half chicken cooked in the oven without any grease but only fresh thyme and our skewers made with fresh products everyday. As are our fresh vegetables grilled with olive oil.As we remember you finished you plate and seemed to enjoy it...We are French and offer French food, hope see you next time and make you enjoy French cuisine!

Went here for a happy hour break and we wished we would have kept going. The rolls were the most flavorless rolls i have ever had. Supposedly were spicy tuna but just had no flavor. Also had the gyozas and they too lacked any sort of flavor. Beer was ice cold so that earned a star.

One of the only true beach front spots where you can lay on a day bed and spend the whole day beach front.Full menu of food and drinks, so you can lay in the sun all day and not go hungry (or thirsty!). I probably wouldn’t trek from town just to have lunch out here but make an afternoon out of it to really enjoy it Food is good (not great - but good). Service is excellent. Ambiance is great. If you’re surfing at Paunch (or your partner is...) then this is a great spot to stop for after surf food and drinks.
