Context.
This is one two locations (the other in the West Island).
This place appears to be clean & organized.
When you walk in I was greeted by multiple black flies buzzing around & throughout the time not one staff member made any noticeable effort to rid the establishment of these unwanted guests.
Staff were friendly & helpful.
Cooking is open kitchen style & immediately on your left at the street windows when you walk in.
Atmosphere is typical old style Greek restaurant decor & not a place one would think to get all dressed up for - but you can.
Food seemed fresh.
Green house salad.
Simple house dressing, chopped lettuce & a few shreds of carrot. $10.00. Rip off. Nothing more to say as a salad it was nearly useless & non competitive with the marketplace.
Tzatziki
Runny, lacked flavour & overall was not worth consuming. Small portion $3.50 *without any bread or pita included.
Grille while chicken.
Completely lacked flavour.
Way overcooked.
White meat was dry.
Seasoning was so poor that even adding the typical spritz of lemon didn't make much of a difference. I could have been eating this chicken at any type of (cuisine) restaurant.
Roasted potatoes.
We were told that there was to be seasoning of a typical Greek style with fresh lemon S & P garlic, perhaps some herbs like oregano etc.
Potatoes were lacking flavour & even with salt added & dab of pepper it was just bland.
The potatoes lacked much texture as most Greek style roasted potatoes have some browning on the exterior creating a much more enjoyable texture & as well flavour. These potatoes were not treated with love, the were cut up & tossed on a pan with some ingredients & shuffled about & placed in the over & left to cook. I care & you can easily taste it & see the result as well as they looked greyish & with one potato with a large blemish. This is not Yaya's cooking at all.
Bottom line from a food perspective alone, not worth the time, the stomach space nor the high price for food I can easily cook superior chez moi. You go to a restaurant to eat joy food & hope it's at least as good as what you can make yourself. It's a let down when it's not even as good as you yourself can make it. This place has been around for a while & I don't understand how & why unless they have reduced their attention to quality & detail but this is not a repeat restaurant to visit. If they can't make the basics well, how can I believe that can cook the more complex dishes such as seafood & fish as well as lamb to perfection let alone my own standard.
No.
Not again & no I will not refer this restaurant as it's a waste given the completion. I mean, go to Yia Sou Greek Grill on queen Mary road & see what these dishes are & you'll see what I mean it's like light & day.View more
Friendly staff. Food was great. Good spot for big or small groups. I had the grilled shrimp platter & everything was cooked to perfection. Others in my group had the pork & chicken skewers & the meats were very tender & flavourful. Highly recommendView more
Had a disappointing experience at Panama Jean Talon last night. Their quality is slipping.
The whole chicken that we ordered was not a whole chopped chicken but instead random backs, necks & misc dark meat. They gave us leftovers. Also, they ran out of roasted potatoes - at a Greek restaurant early a Saturday night?!View more
I tried the grilled chicken here which turned out to be really good.The ambience here is very uplifting.Food is good but the customer service is better !!View more
This place is the most authentic Greek food you could have the honour of eating at… the portions are generous, the quality is excellent & the service is 5 stars! Best calamari you could ever eat anywhere! The Greek salad with chicken is out of this world & so is their tzatziki & grilled pita bread!
There is nothing you can order that isn't fit for a king & a queen!!! Best servers ever!!! Prepare to have your mind & stomach blown away after eating here! The Jean talon ouest location is the bomb!! I highly highly recommend!!!!View more
The service at Panama is great, our waiter was lovely. We enjoyed the calamari, the fried zucchini & our pita. We took the chicken pita platter; it was good but I'll admit that there wasn't so much chicken in the pita & I was disappointed that on the platter you get two potatoes (literally 2).View more
The chicken was tender & so delicious, marinated & cooked to perfection. A neat greek resto. A bit pricyView more
Your renowned tasty chicken was as delectable as ever, the roasted potatoes were out of this world, probably one of the best we've tasted & the grilled octopus was delicious!
All that topped up with some fabulous spreads, nice wine, & great company, made for another fun jaunt at Panama.
First time I went there it was with my family. We were 4 people & we have been very pleased with the food & the gentleman who served us was very courteous. He took the time to explain the menu & their specialties. We had the grilled chicken, grilled vegetable & a plate of potatoes. Food was so delightful that I went back by myself, a few days later. At the end of my diner, accompanied by a house wine, the server surprised me with a delicious dessert offered by the "cuisine". If you like good Grec cuisine, Rôtisserie Panama is the place to go.View more
My husband ordered the steak. Pleasantly surprised at how perfectly cooked the steak was done for a Greek Restaurant. I've had better chicken brochette plates at other Greek restaurants, though. Otherwise I would have given five stars.View more
We went out last night for supper,finally,after a long time & we had a wonderful time.We were greeting by a lady with red hair with such a warm & kind attitude.& then the waiter was extremely attentive with us.We had roast lamb,calamari,grilled chicken,Greek salad,octopus & a few drinks.The food was outstanding.Definitely we will go back.Thank you to all of you at Panama for making the effort to serve us so nice.BRAVO!
The grilled chicken was outstanding!! A simple souvlaki in pita was terrific too. The service was really attentive, we felt very well looked after.
We started with kopanisti which was wayyyy too salty, the calamari was too chewi eggplant & fried suzhini was just ok. Then we had a brochet of pork & chicken plate which was salty & nothing special. We won't be going back there. Service was a1
I was in the area & stopped for dinner. I have to say, $39 for 1 person, chicken , comes with nothing, a Pepsi for $3 , an old dessert , although good , you have to watch all the splinters of bones in the chicken as its chopped in some strange way. Couldn't find the drumstick or the breast on my half chicken honestly, some of it is missing. Okay but for the money I'd go across town next time. Or order in. For half that.
