Popino Restaurante

A great place with an incredible atmosphere. The food was exceptional and cooked to perfection and the cocktails were on point. The service was quick and efficient. Definitely highly recommend when in Panama City

Very nice ambiance restaurant in a modern art gallery like building. Great place for a date night or celebration. For drinks we enjoyed Miguel & Oaxaca which were well mixed full of flavor. For starters we got the grilled octopus which was amazing and the smoked ceviche which wasn’t our favorite but still was good. Main meal consisted of the Denver Steak & Popino Seabass which was delicious. The infused Pink Moon tea was fresh and full of flavor. We ended with the banana torrija which was moist and strong with banana flavor. Was a very nice evening enjoyed.

What a MAGNIFICENT experience! I came across Popino as I was looking for a different place and I was intrigued. When I saw the 4.8 star rating, I became very excited. Everything about dining at Popino was FLAWLESS! The decor is dark and elegant, the wine list is varied and extensive. The service is impeccable. And the food is out of this world! I had the goat cheese pasta and my friend had the fish of the day. The first course, an arugula and lettuce salad, was huge, so we split it. We also split the delicious banana dessert. I cannot recommend Popino highly enough. It is simply the best! And I shall definitely be returning!

Unique, elegant, creative, thoughtful, and absolutely delicious food! Also, this is Impeccably designed space that’s fit for a magazine spread. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to Panama City so I can eat here again.

The truth is that I was disappointed, I love trying nice places, I thought it was a place with many expectations because I read good comments, but for me the attention was not good, on my plate the banana tasted burnt and I told the girl and she did nothing, I told the waiter to guide me for a sweet cocktail and the cocktail I chose was not sweet at all. The octopus was delicious. And expensive for that service!

Wonderful restaurant and food was amazing. Beautifully plated. The Popino seabass was fantastic and the fresh pasta was excellent as well. Great wine selection as well. We will be back for sure

4.2 | friendly service, good food, nice ambiance. Some of the dishes were terrific such as the tartare with other beings a little less notable. Same goes for the cocktails, some are very well crafted and balanced while others are a bit of a miss. Overall would recommend a stop here, especially if you are staying at an Airbnb in the building.

Very accommodating for a vegetarian diet and a shellfish allergy. The chef personally came out and customized a pasta. Very good service by our server, Gabriel. The goat cheese pasta with truffle sauce and the chocolate cannoli was delicious. We really enjoyed the glazed carrots and grilled baby lettuce salad. The vibes are amazing!
