A friend recommended us this place.....all i can say is that we owe him. This restaurant is good in every way. The first thing that hits you is the decor and atmosphere. Very well done. The service is suprisingly good. The food is a Peruvian Gourmet style, it is really well done. Everything we had was great, Tuna Tartare, Sushi Tower and a Grouper that came with the most exquisite sauce. It left you asking for more. Definitely give it a two thumbs up.

Let's be honest. It is not easy to find a restaurant in Panama City that offers great food AND great service. Here it is.
Formerly called Eurasia, La Trona is situated in a lovely old house in the calle Uruguay area, quite close to Avenida Balboa. It is a restaurant for grown-ups - the decor is lovely, mature and it is a place to go for a special night out, or simply a decent meal.
This was my first visit to La Trona, with three friends, and each of us enjoyed our chosen meals very much. My seafood dishes were terrific. However, it is not just the food but the service that stands out at La Trona. Our waitress was attentive, fast and polite, without hovering over our table. We did not feel hurried and I was impressed.
My husband and I are planning another visit to La Trona soon.

It is a very romantic place that serves amazing food with great service...It has three different environments, one of them allows the people to smoke. We order seafood and it was great! Our highlights was the dessert: the sorbets we order was amazing!

I took my wife here on our first night in Panama City. It was fabulous. I found it under TripAdvisor as "Eurasia" - but our cab driver drove us up and down Calle 48 in the Bella Vista area, and he couldn't find Eurasia. He asked a local, and they pointed us inside La Trona. Apparently, it changed names and owners a few months ago.

The location was very romantic, there is inside seating in several different rooms as well as an outside terrace in the back. We sat outside but also had a drink at the bar. The ambiance of the whole place is great and very classic modern.

I would categorize the food as Panamanian meets Italian and Asian. We had a fabulous deconstructed sushi appetizer, while I had the skirt steak with garlic and truffle potatoes and my wife had the shrimp risotto for our main course. We finished with a crème brûlée for desert and also enjoyed a nice bottle of wine. The meal was around 100 USD.

There was one waitress who spoke English, which was great as the menu is in all Spanish. Bring your dictionary!

Finally, the staff was very attentive - and they even gave us a free drink while we waited for our cab after our meal. What a treat! I would come back here for sure!

TIP - I would recommend a reservation.
