Espeziak

The 26 Best Restaurants in Panama City | Eater

"Espeziak, meaning “spice” in Basque, reimagines Spain’s most iconic dishes with a contemporary twist. Chef Xavi Vallejo, trained in Basque French cuisine, infuses the menu with influences from his travels through Thailand, as well as expertise from his Argentine partners. Highlights include local catches like manta ray and Espeziak’s creative versions of tortillas de patata (don’t miss the goat cheese and onion option). Sommelier Aarón Batista elevates the experience with a perfectly tailored wine list, and the restaurant shares space with the Flora Lab plant boutique, so take a floral arrangement to go." - Jorge Chanis
