Chiriqui Province Restaurants

You can get a good meal almost anywhere in the province, but Boquete has the best restaurant selection. The specialty in the mountains is local farm-raised trout, but because the Gulf of Chiriquí has such great fishing, seafood is also a good bet. Chiriquí is cattle country, so you'll also find plenty of beef on the menu.

  • 1. Burricos

    $

    This Mexican grill might seem out of place in Volcán, but it’s a favorite among locals with its authentic street tacos piled high with battered fish, chorizo, and chicken. Rice, beans, slaw, and salsas come with main entrées, or you can opt for lunch classics like hamburgers or panini. The Michoacán-born Chef Jamie Ortega delivers traditional Mexican dishes of sopa de tortilla, enchiladas, mole, and chiles rellenos. Start with a sweet mango margarita and end with tasty tres leches. The colorful wooden tables and walls displaying ponchos and sombreros might make you forget where you’re traveling.

  • 2. Il Forno

    $ | Italian
    Closed Permanently

    Authentic southern Italian recipes, handed down from generations, are what you'll get here. It might be a challenge, but try not to fill up on the warm baked breads served with roasted garlic and olive oil. On the menu you'll find veal, salmon, chicken, pork, and, of course, brick-oven pizzas. Pastas are all named after women, like "Pasta a la Jessie" served with a bacon and tomato cream sauce. The menu also features lighter options like spinach salad with candied almonds and apples. Adding to the dining experience is the pleasant atmosphere created by wooden tables, a wine room, opera music, and the smell of garlic wafting from the kitchen.
