    Comments: "The Bistro can be found easily in town and has a great location. While I was hoping for a real French bistro type restaurant, I found it to be much more Americanized. The food being American, is good, but I would hesitate to go for a romantic dinner here."

    Comments: "Olga is the lady who runs this breakfast haven which is very popular among many of the locals. One of the best breakfasts I remember was the spinach omelet. Olga had fresh spinach which she picked for the occasion (so it isn’t always available). She has a great selection of breakfast choices but the average bill per person runs close to $10."

    It is located right across from Central Park.
    Comments: "I really liked this place for breakfast. But scrambled eggs are hit and miss in the way they are cooked. The menu is not expensive, coffee is good and there is a decent variety."

    Comments: "There is a decent selection of breakfast items on the menu ranging around $4.95 (with unlimited coffee or tea). And if you don’t want egg dishes, order a wonderful fruit, yogurt and meusli plate."

    Comments: "The burgers and fries are pretty good as long as you request them “medium”. I found that if I asked for “well done”, the burger came out tasting like cardboard. The best thing with this dish is they have a great selection of condiments for the burger and fries!"

    Comments: "Pretty much top of the line for Boquete. Classy dining room and service with a great menu selection. The dishes are very well prepared and consistent. I prefer to eat in the lounge area where there are two fireplaces to choose from."
    OasisOasis
    Location:
    Comments: "The restaurant and bar is recently completed and Oasis now offers a great menu which is comparable to Panamonte (it might be because the chef used to work there). Everything sampled was very well prepared however, the quality of lamb was less than acceptable. Everything else was well prepared and very enjoyable."

    Palo Alto RestaurantPalo Alto
    Comments: "When I looked at the menu last, the selection appeared to be a wonderful selection of classic dishes. It appeared to be open when I drove by but I haven’t any confirmation of that since the floods of November 08."
    Palo Alto RestaurantThe Wine Bar
    Comments: "In the Valle del Rio Hotel, the outdoor area is very pretty and well located beside a nice green space and bubbling brook. The menu is primarily Italian. Other traditional side or main dishes like salads and wine and cheese are available."

    French

    La CrepeLa Crepe
    Comments: "Jean Marie prepares many crepe dishes from vegetarian, meat or dessert creps. He also offers wonderful daily specials which include a typical french dish with appetizer, dessert and coffee at very reasonable prices. This restaurant is probably more “French” in culture and cuisine of all in Boquete. The interior is very cute and cozy."
    Ou LalaOu Lala
    Comments: "Christophe is back with great food and personal attention in Los Naranjos. His dishes are very well-prepared and he offers prepares several special menus from time to time in addition to his daily French menu choices. He has a wonderful selection of wine which you may not find elsewhere, so ask him for wine if you want to buy and take home some bottles for yourself."

    Cafe PomodoroCafe Pomodoro
    Comments: "Excellent location shared with the Wine Bar at Valle del Rio Hotel. On the last occasion, food was just ok, service very slow, but if you sit outside by the brook, you might not care."

    La CasonaLa Casona
    Comments: "I enjoyed the chicken tortillas which were enough to feed me for two meals. The time I tried this restaurant, it was full so I do not know if tht is an indicator of popularity. It is inexpensive so that may be part of the popularity factor."
    El CharroEl Charro Mexicano
    Comments: "Inexpensive, but you really have to know what to eat as most of the choices seriously lack flavor. It may be better for take out so that you can add your own flavor when you get home."

    Al ZaranaAl Zarana
    Comments: "I found the menu to be so large that I stuck with an appetizer which cost $14. It was delicious and I could not eat half of what was served so I suspect this is a suitable restaurant to order items and share with other guests."
