Banderas - Panama City

This is not your typical restaurant; the family that runs it truly makes you feel like part of their family and ensures that your experience is top-notch. Be prepared to spend some time here, as everything is made to order and freshly prepared. Despite having a small staff, they do an incredible job welcoming everyone who walks in. The food was absolutely fantastic, and they were incredibly patient in answering our questions about the different dishes. What we received was very affordable and worth every penny. The Cuban coffee at the end of the meal was the perfect way to cap off our already wonderful dining experience. The owner's youngest son even entertained my toddler with such kindness, getting him involved in the fun games they played. I will definitely be coming back in the future.

The newly opened restaurant offers a selection of dishes from various Latin countries. The owners are a lovely family who take their time to prepare good food, so it's not the best place to visit if you're in a hurry.

This was my husband and I's first visit to this restaurant. We ordered a Cuban sandwich, and it was so large that we had to share it. The taste was fantastic! Our overall experience was wonderful; the owner greeted us and made us feel like part of the family. Thank you! We’ll definitely return soon.

Absolutely LOVE this place! It is family owned and operated and they could not be warmer or welcoming when you go through the door! The food is absolutely amazing! The portions are huge and the prices are great. To date, I had the pleasure to try the Cerdo Frito (Nicaraguan Pork and the Street Taco (Pork with a freshly made maize tortilla). Believe me if I tell you that there is not another restaurant with so diverse menus. From Columbian to Nicaraguan to Dominican Republic to Brazil, and this is just a few to name! Make yourself a favor and try it today. Thank you later; thank you Jose and family for bringing such a great restaurant to the city!

This place has awesome food! If you want authentic Jamaican cuisine, this is it. They have great portions and packed flavor for a great price! It is not a place for sit down, but it does have a table and some chairs with an umbrella outside and a couple chairs inside. There’s Jamaican food products on the walls for purchase and several Latin America drinks. We went in and the cashier greeted us and asked if it was our first time, it was, and went on to explain that all the dishes they had listed on their menu comes with rice and beans, fried plantain slices, sliced tomatoes, and stewed cabbage along with whatever meat your ordered. I ordered their jerk chicken, and my boyfriend ordered the curry chicken. They both were fantastic! The tomatoes go great with the stewed cabbage and the fried plantains were sweet and savory! The jerk chicken was a sweet spicy delight, and the curry was a slow burning kind of spice. They also offer homemade drinks: ginger beer, carrot juice, beet juice, and lemonade; I had lemonade and it was delicious and fresh tasting. My boyfriend had some of the cold canned coconut juice, which was delicious and had coconut pulp. Food was done fast, and the service was kind and helpful, the price of all our food and drinks with tax was 22.95. That is some amazing value!
