Coliseum Roma Panamá

ATTENTION! DON’T PAY BY CARD HERE! My bank notified me that this restaurant/rooftop bar tried to steal 1000 and 2500 USD from my credit card after I ate there one day ago. My bank denied their request!

Uncaring service, and bad food. I practically had to serve myself the soup as it was cooling on the counter with no waiter nearby more than 2 minutes......we returned 2 dishes that were beyond, and the lasagna took an hour to be served. The greek salad was one of the worst Ive tasted, no lettuce, peeled cucumbers and no dressings. definitely not coming back.Tomato soup was delicious and lasagna ok.

Get the meat platter and thank me later! Me and my girlfriend wandered in here late night and destroyed an additional two pounds of food we are not expecting too. Some of the staff speaks English and is very welcoming, but as we all know we came here for the three meat mixed platter!

February 2, 2019. Arrived for a late dinner. They were out of Lasagna so I ordered spaghetti Bolognese, fried yuca, maduros and garlic bread. The meal portion went well until I settled the check. The waiter, a short rotund individual, informed me that I could not include the gratuity on my charge card. I would have to pay the Tip in cash. He quickly took the gratuity and secreted it in a jar next to the cashier. It was strange. Had it not been for the highly questionable part of my experience I would have given a higher rating.

We were walking around looking for a dinner place and through the passion of the servers we were directed into the Coliseum. We split the mixed meat board and oh my gosh it was incredible. A blend of chicken, pork and steak served w roasted peppers and onions and all served over a bed of french fries. Might not sound like much but the quality and flavor of the meat was outstanding. It was a huge portion and we left nothing behind. In fact I didn't even take pictures because I was so caught up enjoying myself. Our service was also fantastic which in central america you don't get often. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quality meal in a quaint setting.
