Visited in July 2024. Panama. Panama-city.

We were drawn in by the glowing Google reviews and the mouthwatering photos on their Instagram feed. The restaurant is fairly small, more of a bar, and located in the historic centre.

The Food:

We came for their burger, as it looked amazing in their Instagram pictures. Kudos to their photographer and marketing team! Visually, the burger looked good, except for the patty. It was very thin, barely making an impact on the flavour. We were initially put off by the colour, which was slightly pink and pale, almost like pork patty. The meat had a strange consistency - we ordered medium, but it felt rubbery, as though it wasn't cooked properly. The patty was riddled with tendons and strange chewy bits, making it very unpleasant to chew. There was no rich beef flavour – a real disappointment, and we couldn't even finish it. By the way, take a look at the width of the patty on the outside and inside, the photo clearly shows it. The patty is the foundation of the burger, and even though the brioche bun was soft and fresh, and the sauces worked well together, the low-quality beef patty ruined the whole experience. The fries that came with the burger were cooked okay, but lacked seasoning.

Service:

The service was average. The waitress spoke some English, and it was easy to order, but the service was slow and not very friendly.

Overall:

I don't know where all the rave reviews come from, but it's a complete misrepresentation. The photos and videos they post on Instagram are nothing like the actual burger you get. We were left feeling disappointed and regretting spending $35 on two burgers and a beer. I think you'd get a better burger at McDonald's, because at least you wouldn't be expecting a 4.9-star rating.
