3 Best Nightlife in Panama City, Panama

Danilo's Jazz Club

Panama City Fodor's choice
Named for Panamanian jazz legend Danilo Pérez, this 50-seat venue has quickly become one of Panama City's premier live music venues. Small and intimate, Danilo's serves an array of cocktails and hosts a steady rotation of local and international talent.

Ego y Narciso

Casco Viejo Fodor's choice

This tapas restaurant has tables on Plaza Bolívar, with views of the illuminated Iglesia de San Francisco and other historic structures, making it one of the city's most romantic spots for a drink.

Tántalo

Fodor's choice

The rooftop bar of this hip hotel has a great view of the city's skyline beyond the ancient roofs of Casco Viejo. Weekends vibrate with the boom-boom of deafening house music, though the quality of the DJs varies. You can get a relatively quiet drink here Sunday through Wednesday.
