We had dinner yesterday night. I called for a reservation 1 day in advance and could not find any for 8pm, so we had an early dinner at 7pm... The food was great, love the fact that they serve the sauces separately and are not too greasy. Excellent service and great wine list.

Nice restaurant.Not a huge restaurant. They had a large party that night which took the noise level up some but still tolerable. The food was excellent and good wine choices as well. Read other reviews and was looking forward to the experience. It lived up.

This is a small venue seemingly meant to target upscale people. The interior design is indeed elegant and classic with some tones of baroque and rococo, mixed with some cheap grapefruit drawings around. Soft music in the background, relatively quiet for a conversation, and warm lights. The average entree ranges between 12 USD (appetizer) and 22 USD (main). I personally... More

Had our anniversary dinner at Grapes tonight (first time there). They had free valet parking (absolutely necessary in Casco Antiguo). The restaurant dacor was very inviting and the service was excellent. I had a blue cheese salad (excellent) and curried chicken. The curried chicken was like chicken nuggets in a bowl. Next to that was a bowl of rice and... More

This restaurant has a nice atmosphere, and the staff is friendly. The food could be improved, it was not gourmet fare. A nice place to go if you are in "Casco Viejo" but if you have a choice go to Panama City and will find wonderful restaurants at the same price.

This is definitely an upscale atmosphere with a coved wooden ceiling and an interesting menu and good wine list. The Staff was attentive and professional. I had grilled octopus which was delicious and I would order it again in a minute. It was a great place for our last dinner in Panama. Entrees come with nothing extra so it is... More
