A large variety of food, beautiful decoration, comfortable tables. Ambience is nice. service can be much better. Food looks good but it is not good. Would not recommend if you care about how food tastes.
We have dined here twice since we arrived. The selection of menu items is fantastic! Their alcoholic drinks are strong! The first one I had - a blue lagoon was tasty, my husbands margarita was super strong. I then tried a Long Island and I could not stomach more than a few sips. They were even kind to water it down and it was still extremely strong! They take care of a feral felons colony which I think it amazing. They do not risk you, the views are lovely & they allowed us to practise our Spanish with such patience!
Big Daddy’s in Boquete Panama is more than a restaurant and has some of the best tasting food dishes and drinks in the area. We have eaten at Big Daddy’s several times and the food has always been unbelievable. Chef Chris Young continually creates an exciting menu to satisfy the tastes of everyone. He only uses the freshest meats, seafood, fruits and vegetables, sourced from local vendors, to bring out the amazing flavors of each dish. The bar creates delicious cocktails of all types including, the Chocolate Margarita, which is a must try for chocolate lovers. The restaurant has a relaxing atmosphere and a great place to meet friends, have a great meal and occasionally listen to live music from local bands. Big Daddy’s will leave you with an experience you won’t soon forget!! Kim and Dave
We keep going back here because both the food and service are awesome! Touring here we wanted to try as many restaurants as possible but the food here is delicious and so well prepared we are afraid to be disappointed somewhere else. We have tried their filet mignon sandwich, Panama Red Pork Chop, Fish Tacos and the Boom Boom Shrimp and Filet Mignon platter. Everything except the lemon pie dessert was clearly homemade which made the pie the only thing not worth the money. But everything else was perfect. The filets were rare, tender and juicy every time, the pork chop was three inches thick, the fish was flaky and mild and even the sides were perfectly prepared. The onion rings were hand cut and hand battered and just like the boom boom shrimp the batter was so light and airy you could barely tell they were fried. The mixed vegetables were succulently el dente and there were more than a 1/2 dozen local vegetables in the mix. An added bonus is the delicious margaritas and sauces they make from the hand picked lime, lemon and orange trees growing right next to your table. The service was friendly efficient and bi-lingual. If you are visiting Boquete, this restaurant MUST be the first stop on your list for lunch or dinner!
