RetroGusto

El lugar es acogedor, con es muy italiano tradicional. Probamos una pizza y la tela es muy delgadita y la pasta estuvo buena aunque no tanta cantidad

Un buen restaurante italiano para ir a visitar en Boquete, la atención es muy buena, el personal es muy atento, nos explicaron el menú y nos dieron recomendaciones. La cocina fue super rápida y la comida estaba deliciosa. Muy buena relación calidad-precio.

We have been to Retrogusto several times and we are continually impressed. Our last meal there was as near to perfection as you can get - 100+ all around - service - atmosphere - and food, food, food. We like to sit at a table on the interior of the restaurant (there is outside seating on the street one table, and an exterior ‘garden like’ setting in the back). Our inside table of choice has an excellent view of the kitchen, where we are continually impressed with the attention to detail and the perfection of their plating! There is a wonderful menu, but you can also ask for a ‘tasting menu’ - smaller plates - more courses! Of course, we opted for the tasting menu. Tuna carpaccio, it was not just ‘food’ but a delightful experience in textures and flavors. The smoked tuna was cut expertly, wafer thin and there was a pesto sauce, ‘crumbs’ of very well toasted and flavored bread, sprinkled with sprouts. Cream of mushroom soup - so expertly done! The texture and flavors were impeccable. It did not appear to have cream in it - but it was a silky emulsion of mushroom, the flavor of the mushroom exploded in our mouths as we had the first taste .. mmm! Risotto, flavored with truffles and topped with juicy, perfectly cooked shrimp. Again, the flavors shone through - expertly balanced blend of truffle and shrimp. Filet Mignon, served over a bed of ‘creamed spinach’ - this was not the ‘normal’ creamed spinach - this was a light as air, concoction of spinach, that was not cream at all, but a wonderful puree that let the vegetable shine - and of course, their filet was cooked EXACTLY as we wished. There was a delicious balsamic reduction on the side that worked perfectly to blend the flavors on the spinach and the filet. Lastly! There was a tiny cup of Pana cotta perfection - topped with a puree of strawberries, perfectly flavored - I don’t think any sugar met these strawberries. My husband ordered a Negroni and Retrogusto have a special one that they top with Prosecco instead of soda - happy, happy husband. Service was impeccable and our waiter was Jake, who was both knowledgeable and engaging. In all Retrogusto has our custom, again and again - it’s difficult for us to go to Boquete and not visit our favorite restaurant!

Buen restaurante en la vía principal del pueblo de Boquete, la atención muy buena y el ambiente también agradable, la comida estuvo bien, buena preparación, las raciones me parecieron pequeñas en relación con el precio, este es un aspecto de muchos restaurantes, aunque siempre prefiero calidad a cantidad, pero cuando encuentro uno que conjugue calidad-cantidad-precio de una vez se convierte en favorito, este no fue el caso, pero no estuvo mal.

Lugar mágico en Boquete, una de las mejoras experiencias de comida Italia en Panamá. excelente servicio y ambiente. recomiendo los champiñones con chorizo y las pastas.
