We you first come into the restaurant, its seems that you are in a setting of Tommy Bahamas island or simply James Bond movie...incredible enviroment and very inviting to the senses. Food was increible, from the appetizers to the main courses, prices reflect the quality of the food....drinks were great. Waitress were on time and very attentive of the crowd.... more

We have been in Panama 4 months and because we enjoy good food and wines have tried many of the well known restaurants. So far La Posta has been the best food we have tried in Panama. The wine list is OK but not as extensive as other establishments recommend this restaurant highly - in the past we owned 2... more

The ambiance: Though the restaurant is located within an historic building with a lovely bar, they could use to work on their interior atmosphere. The lighting is too stark, the tables too high and the wicker furniture cheap and awkward. The bar: A straight and simple elegant bar with a bartender that was both attentive and skilled The Food: Flavors... more

This place is quite a find off of chaotic Calle Uruguay. As our taxi winded towards our destination, passing bars still recovering from the previous nights revelries and madcap construction sites, I began dialing back all of my expectations. However, when the doorman welcomed us into this little slice of paradise I knew that I had come to the right... more

Just wow.

After a 10 day trip, we had our last meal together (there were 8 of us) here. Oh man..... what a last meal. I can't think of a better place. The food was simply incredible. The wine recommendations were spot on and the service was impeccable. The decor is a very cool, Cuban cafe theme. This place is not the... more

Having read the glowing reviews here, we were expecting spectacular food but when it finally arrived an hour after we were seated, it was all burned up! The shrimp was charred and tasted burnt and we could not chew it. The corvina fish cooked in parchment was charred around the edges (like the paper caught fire) and tasted burned and... more
