As it was my mother's birthday I asked her what type of food she wanted to eat "Greek" she said. Panama was not the first place that sprang into my mind - A) I hadn't been there yet and B) with a name like Panama greek food is not the first thing that springs to mind. So looking at the pitiful choice for greek we have here on the west island i did a yelp search and lo and behold...
We had reservations for around 6:30. Being a group of 7 we were seated along the back wall - a good spot as we were well out of the fray, because as the night went on the place became filled to the rafters literally (they have a loft area as well).
The service was friendly and our waiter was as attentive as he could be considering the number of clients he was taking care of . It did appear that they were a little short staffed but it really didn't affect the service all that much, so that speaks volumes.
To start, I ordered a Pikiia platter and it was plenty for the table. Everything on the platter was delicious
We ordered 2 orders of sea bass which we split between 3 people with an couple orders of rice and potatoes and and house salads for all , my brother ordered the lamb platter which was delicious but not enough for a man with a big appetite, my husband had the souvlaki platter, my sister the red snapper and my daughter a greek salad. The food was delicious. My mother even sucked the life out of the fish heads!
The cocktails (margaritas, mojitos and a dirty martini) were also really good.
The total at the end of the night was near $600 but considering we were 7 people, ordered alcohol and a bottle of wine - I'd say it was pretty reasonable.
I'll go back for sure.
