Restaurants near Museum of Contemporary Art Panama

Great food and a beautiful ambiance. Our service was not good. It looked like our waitress was too tired and ready to leave. Overall good selection of sushi, sake and Japanese whiskey

We originally made reservations for the rooftop, but upon further review of limited menu decided to dine in restaurant. The live music was great and a nice added touch to the experience. All of the food was outstanding including entrees and dessert. The only hitch ( which was due to the rainy night and super busy restaurant) was that our service was slower than we expected ( they were very cognizant of it and apologized when one diner received their entree and the other three were still waiting). However, once the food came out everyone loved it and appreciated acknowledgement from management that it was not up to their high standard. We were provided a complimentary dessert and promise of better service should we decide to return. We do recommend this restaurant for the food, ambiance and live music and plan to return on future visits for cocktails on the rooftop.

This place is beautiful, and I loved sitting in the outdoor patio! My server was Eric and he was wonderfully patient with me as I chatted with him so much about the food and drinks. The ceviche del dia was outstanding! The house made bread was divine with the completely unique savory hibiscus butter! The stracciatella ice cream was made with chocolate made with Panamanian cacao! And it was the best stracciatella ice cream ever! The mixed herbal tea was fantastic too! It was a mix of mint, lemongrass, rose, petals, and hibiscus. Service was outstanding overall, and the ingredients are truly farm to table. I highly recommend this place and thank my friend, the Panamanian chef from New Orleans, for recommending it to me. 

Kaandela is definitely the most-go-to place for dinner in Casco Viejo, Panamá. The food is delicious, and the service is excellent. You won’t regret it.

We had a great time enjoying the Panoramic view of the city, great foods and drinks, very friendly people and happy vibes.
