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.
Next to The Riverside Inn, this place's greatest asset is its view of the Palo Alto River and the forest beyond it. If the weather is nice, you may want to sit outside near the riverbank, though the large picture windows also let you enjoy the scenery from inside. The food is tasty and inventive, though service can be slow. Starters range from corvina (sea bass) ceviche to hydroponic salads. Entrées worth sinking your teeth into include pork ribs with sugarcane and papaya sauce and a sesame-crusted salmon filet on a creamy risotto. The grilled portobello burger with cream cheese and cranberry filling makes for a unique vegetarian option. Monday night features live jazz and two-for-one cocktails from 6 to 7.
