Japanese-Peruvian Restaurant (Nikkei Cuisine)
Reviewed By PanamanianWanderlust - Panama City, Panama
As the name suggests, this is not a japanese restaurant, but a Peruvian/japanese fusion. Good service, very attentive staff. They gave us a small maki piece as a free appetizer. I'm not really into fusion japanese gastronomy, instead I prefer traditional japanese. However, I enjoyed this restaurant a lot. Food was fresh and flavors were accurate. I ordered a spicy sushi, and a toro nigiri sushi. I would return to try more dishes.

I was pleasantly surprised by my lunch. While this isn't fine dining, it's simple, fresh, well prepared food. It started with a torta (egg omelet), fresh fish, salad, rice and desert. Everything was very delicious. And it was very inexpensive. The portions were huge. I wish I could have eaten more rice!! The location is nice, right in the heart of casco viejo, on one of the town squares. The service was very good as well. If you're looking for a simple sit down lunch, this is a nice choice.

I just love the food here at Los Camisones. If you like paella this is the place. It’s best to call ahead and order because it takes 45 minutes to an hour to make. The French onion soup is fantastic. And the topper is Langostinos a la sal. It’s shrimp cooked in salt, trust me try it.

Nothing to write home about. If you want food like at home, this is your place. "Sandwiches" are served on English muffins, chorizo is pepperoni. I had a "veggie" Sandwich and it was fine if you were in the U.S. We each had a Sandwich and a glass of juice and my partner had a latte and it cost $22.
6. Casa Tortuga

It is a new restaurant on the Island of Contadora - much needed to expand the choices. I would like to share this gem as it is tucked away in the residential neighborhood and new.

This is a unique experience. No menu, the chef explains what is on the menu that day due to the fact of ingredients available. It is a small island everything shipped in sometimes ingredients not available. It is comfortable and efficient. We had a beautiful tasty salad with a vegetarian pizza, which was huge for 2 people. Delicious coffee. Only open 7 to 11 so get there early. Would highly recommend this unique and delicious experience.

Fantastic restaurant and AMAZING service. Personally attended by the owner of the restaurant who couldn't speak higher about the dishes, ingredients and the people taking care of the crops. I loved their food but mostly is that feeling of being at home, tkane care of, and being served food made with love, pride and respect to the person growing the ingredients. Thank you for what was the highlight of my Panama visit

Our amazing Pizza is made according to ancient Italian traditions by young and talented pizzaiolo Danilo and Chef Piero Spinelli's delicious and authentic Mediterranean cuisine is often referred to as "better than in Italy" and is complemented by great wines, Prosecco or the traditional Italian cocktail, the Aperol Spritz....a must try !!! Head waiter Israel's staff is friendly and knowledgeable and strives to offer one of the best dining experiences in Panama City. To add some spice to the ambience, Thursday nights we offer live music (international, jazz, bossa nova, etc...) with a special dinner creation and Fridays, starting at 7pm a very lively After Office cocktail and appetizers party with DJ house music on our recently renovated garden Terrace where you can try bartender Dennis' fabulous cocktails and relax in a fun and friendly atmosphere.

From start to finish this was an excellent dinner. The burrata appetizer was delicious, as was the accompanying focaccia bread. We had the linguine with clams and duck ragout pasta, both of which were so rich in flavor. Angelo our waiter was entertaining as well as helpful. And the music playlist that evening was so good, I kept Shazam-ing every song! Would definitely dine here again.

Our Mission at Donde Jose is to tell the story of Panama through our cuisine. We use endemic ingredients, cook with age-old techniques, innovate where value can be added, and work every day to contribute to Panama's culinary identity.
Reviewed By Frank T - New York City, New York
From start to finish, dinner at Donde Jose is a special experience. The mix of local ingredients, Panamanian culture, and modern technique create a very unique meal. Compared to other tasting menus in NYC, Paris, etc. this is an absolute bargain. We opted for the chef's table which is necessary. The high bar makes it hard to see the plating. Must do for foodies visiting Panama City.

The decor in this place is really something special! The food and service are also excellent. We split a hamburger, which was so delicious I could have eaten the entire thing, had a fish dish that was cooked perfectly. The dessert was absolutely amazing, hot...MoreDear Phyllis, Thank you for your kind comments about Caliope. We are glad to know you had time to taste our hamburger, it is one of our favorites. Hope you come back anytime soon to try our new dishes from our changing menu. Best.
