Best Seafood food near Panama City, Panama Province, Panama
Reviews on Seafood food in Panama City, Panama Province, Panama. A diverse multicultural city of almost 1.3 million, Panama City offers a lot more than an up-close view of the Canal. Shantytowns slink up alongside shiny high-rise condos. The Old City is an atmospheric labyrinth of churches, plazas and palaces. Fifteen miles from downtown Panama City, Soberania National Park is an excellent destination for hiking and birding. For a fascinating look at the canal, take a taxi or local bus to Miraflores Locks Visitor Center and look down on the traffic below.

Excellent interpretation of traditional, yet modernly presented Japanese cuisine. Great flavours, nice presentations, good service, contemporary-chic settings. Spicy edamame: to lick your fingers! Outdoor space was not available due to bad weather: we will go back for dinner to enjoy the stars ;)

Celebrated a birthday here - it's a great location and nice ambiance. We enjoyed a steak and scallops. The champagne bottle was well priced and the desert was fabulous!

The restaurant was recommended to me by the hotel I was staying at (Toscana Inn). The restaurant was about 100 metres away from the hotel. The meal I had (surf and turf) was totally amazing. Very fresh, tender and delicious. I didnât realize Peruvian food was so rich with flavour!!!

Siete Mares, with more than 40 years, is a point of reference in Panamanian cuisine. Our name says it all, we offer a huge variety of seafood brought daily from our seas and from different parts of the world.

Our party of four were staying at the Riu and based on Trip Advisor reviews chose Siete Mares (Seen Seas) for dinner on a Wednesday evening.Everything about the restaurant was excellent. The ambiance, the service and most memorably the seafood. At the suggestion of one in our group we had planned to dine elsewhere, but when we arrived that restaurant was closed. We ended up at 'Siete Mar' and all had really terrific meals. My friend commented after dinner that he was glad his first choice was closed because this meal was one of the best ever. We all agreed, each raving about their dinners. I'll definitely return to Siete Mar next year when I visit Panama City again.

The food lacks nothing to be desired. It is excellent. We tried different dishes and all of them were perfect. The service is impecable. Only problem, Thursday, Fridays and Saturday nights there is a DJ with a very high noise level which goes against any attempt to enjoy a nice meal and conversation. So if you like peace and quite, avoid those time slots

We looked forward to dining at La Posta again when we planned a return visit to Panama City. We loved the original location, so we were curious about how the new La Posta would compare. We arrived for an early dinner on Valentineâs day. The decor did capture the essence of the atmosphere of the original location. However, the tables were placed closer together than before but no one was seated at the tables next to us during our seating. By coincidence, we had the same waiter as last year, so the service was excellent! I enjoyed the spicy chorizo ravioli while the vegetarian half of the duo enjoyed the GF mushroom ravioli. Both were excellent. We hope to return in the future.

We had a very pleasant lunch after a nice walk around the Casco Viejo neighborhood. We got five different tapas to share between us two, plus two frozen margaritas. It was more than enough food, as the portions were quite generous. Loved the patatas bravas and the ham croquettes; the manchego cheese and bread topped with tomatoes were excellent as well. Before paying the bill we were gifted with two cups of champagne, which was a very nice experience. Absolutely pleased!I'm glad that you were very well! I hope you can back soon.
