In a country where most restaurants have had to dumb down their menu to burgers, fried food and sweets in order to survive the pandemic, Riesen has stayed true to its vision to showcase the best Panama has to offer: working with local farmers and vendors or even growing their own produce. I understand they commit to the 90/10 rule of using 90% local products, thereby not only delivering the freshest, in-season ingredients, but also lowering their carbon footprint and supporting and encouraging home-grown producers. Where they do use the 10% imports is usually the most exquisite olive oils and a great selection of wines. We had the multi-course tasting menu at $60 with the $40 drink pairing and it was phenomenal. It helps if you're lived in Panama for a while and have such points of reference as cacao from Bocas del Toro and wild strawberries from Chiriquí, but if you just focus on the flavor and the care and thought that has gone into each dish, you will truly appreciate the experience. This is my third time visiting the restaurant, and I was impressed with the radical update Chef Hernan had made to the dining room, open kitchen and menu since I visited when I last lived in Panama in 2014. From his IG profile, I understand that he had gone on a research trip through Europe a few years back to eat and speak with some of the most interesting chefs in Northern Europe, not the ones you will find on a docuseries in Netflix, but more the emerging ones in places like Germany, Belgium and Denmark. The impact of what he learned is evident in the presentation (dinnerware commissioned from La Arena potters), narrative (sourcing an endemic corn species for his corn cake), flavor (salad dressed in egg yolks from hens fed with local sweet peppers) and attention (each dish delivered with a careful explanation by the sous chef or the chef himself). If the Michelin Guide ever makes it to Panama, I think Riesen has a strong chance of earning at least one star as long as Chef Hernan keeps at it.

I have been to more than my fair share of incredible restaurants, including many with Michelin stars. I can’t think of any that offered a better experience than Reisen. Each course was more like a beautiful sunrise or sunset than a bombastic fireworks display… the flavors incredibly complex, layered, and nuanced. And not just the food… the entire experience was perfect. Friendly, warm, and attentive service. Beautifully simple dining room. And probably the best wine pairings I’ve had anywhere. I can’t wait to come back to Panama and have another dinner at Reisen. Please do yourself a favor and GO.

Great dining experience. I loved the food and the fact that you get the informations around what is in your plate. The accord between plates and drink was an absolute hit. Quality products and an experienced and passionate teams make a unique culinary journey. Loved the local aspect of the food, would have loved to drink local water rather than imported italian water. A small suggestion, you should heat the plate to have the food served hot and kept warm during the degustation. I can only recommend and encourage everyone to visit the place and enjoy their excellent cuisine.

Chef Hernan and his staff put together a menu that highlights Chef Hernans talents as well as locally sourced products. His love for the culinary arts shines through in every dish. He was kind enough to give us a tour of his "lab". The area where he creates his dishes. Such an honor to have met this disciplined young man and been able to experience his skillfully crafted interpretation of Panamanian Cousine. This ranks amongst my most prized eating experiences. We loved it so much we went twice. If you're in Panama City and cherish the art of cooking do not miss this oppurtunity.

Riesen is a wood-fire based, farm-to-table, Panamanian restaurant. The restaurant is run by the chef and his mother. My husband and I let them know before hand that we were celebrating our anniversary💗. We were greeted so kindly with a complimentary welcome drink. Not only did they have two dozen long stem red roses waiting for us at the table, they had a personalized menu printed for us with a special anniversary message. The food was absolutely divine, truly a gastronomic experience of artistry and we enjoyed every bit of it. At the end of the dinner they offered to give us a ride back to our hotel because it was late and we were the only people left in the restaurant. During the drive the chef shared his story and how passionate he is about community outreach and youth education. The money you pay for food is reaching far beyond the restaurant itself. I will never forget this experience and will certainly be back one day. Thank you Riesen!!

We wanted to go out for dinner at Riesen as it was the last evening of our holiday together as a couple in Panama. When we got there, we learnt that you can only come with a reservation. We were warmly welcomed, informed and given tips for other great restaurants. Riesen you did everything right. Many thanks for the unexpectedly nice chat. We'll be back again sometime, we promise. 😁

My girlfriend and I had an absolutely amazing and memorable tasting experience at Riesen. Each dish was a thoughtful mix of european-style dishes, with a local twist/personality, and the chef (Hernan) and staff were extremely welcoming, and very proud to share their craft, and quality of their products. The restaurant is family-owned, and made us feel like part of it. A highlight is that everything comes from either their own farm, or a known friend's, or is made in-house in their upstairs food lab, or baked in their own wood oven (like the sourdough bread, and other goodies). They were able to accomodate our tight schedule and confirmed the details with me over whatsapp which was super convenient and fast, and all worked super hard. Every dish was perfectly introduced by the chef as it was being served, he was happy to answer our questions, and the tableware and service was impeccable. We also got a cocktail which was made with in-house strawberry liqueur and other local fruit which had novel flavors that we both enjoyed and was perfectly balanced. Food-wise, there are a lot of things to rave about, but I'll be short. We absolutely loved the brioche+pancetta, the aged duck dish with its bread and cultured butter, and the various ice-cream desserts were really fantastic and getting better. As cooking nerds, we were delighted at the end to get a tour of the food lab and see the high-tech lab-quality kitchen equipment that was used for our meal, and actually witness (and taste) a demo using some of the tools, for a wonderful shaken cocktail using local cacao and coffee beans and seco sugarcane liquor. Riesen was one of the best dining experiences either of us has had so far, due to both the quality and local-ness of the dishes, and the interactions and discussions we had throughout our visit. We really felt welcomed, by all the little touches and attention to detail and would definitely come back in a future trip to Panama, and recommend to anyone to go there and share this experience.

Incredible experience, each dish has its own complexity once in the mouth, flavours are powerful and unique. The chef takes great proud of preserving Panamanian native vegetables, fruits and traditions which is such an amazing endeavour. If you're up for an culinary adventure this is your place. I don't know what Michelin is waiting for to award them. Incredible.

So fricken good! All the courses were amazing. Loved the description and the background of each dish. The drinks were great too!

Impressive, high-end cuisine without pretension - Riesen is amazing. I had a delightfully clever ceviche and a perfectly done lamb neck. Everything is locally sourced and perfectly executed. The cocktails are great, the front staff are flawless, the chef is on point. If you are in Panamá City, don't miss the opportunity to dine here.

(Translated by Google) Very bad attention, I went to buy a combo of 8 dams. Which one of me was waiting for them to finish cooking so that later they would tell me that there was no biscuit, which they put in an attitude of take it or leave it without even looking for a change or alternative, both the manager and the cashier .. The manager He said that they are orders and that if he wanted to be able to call his boss, Mr. Martín Cabrera, he gave me a number and it turned out to be false. I spoke on social networks with the manager of Popeyes Panama and apparently he was not interested ... (Original) Malisimo atención, fui a comprar un combo de 8 presas el.

La encargada decía que son órdenes y que si quería poder llamar a su jefe el Sr Martín Cabrera a lo que me da un numero y resultó ser falso. Hablé por redes sociales con el encargado de Popeyes Panamá y al parecer ni le interesó...

Nice ambiance. Was really excited about this restaurant based on other reviews. Wanted to start our dinner earlier and was told we could come earlier, only to be waiting for the rest of the restaurant to fill before we actually got served. The tasting menu consisted of 9 courses - all way too spaced out over a course of 4.5 hours and not much substance in the plate. The best thing was the bread. But isn’t that just filler when all else fails?

I’m not sure whether to stick with 3 or do 2 stars. Even though the food was interesting and the flavor combinations were unique and the presentation of the food was beautiful, the TIMING of the food was AWFUL. WHO in their right mind wants to eat their main course after MIDNIGHT?! Truly, prepare yourself to be here for a minimum of 5 hours. Me and my partner got here at 7:30 for my birthday and I didn’t get the candle until 12:45am the following day. We left at 1am, it was torturous eating the food at the end. Not only that, they DOUBLED their price in the last 8 months. I know about restaurants increasing their price but doubling is ridiculous. They used to charge $60 for the tasting menu and $40 alcohol pairing, **- NOW it’s $125 for the tasting menu and $75 for the pairing. Janet was kind and attentive but service isn’t a huge factor when it’s overshadowed by the cost of my time. Overall, not worth it. I’ve been to many beautiful tasting menu restaurants and this one was only memorable for how LONG the food took in between. I hope this helps your decision making.

Although the food is delicious, well presented and impressive the whole experience was way too long. I understand they cook everything fresh but we arrive at 7:30 and had to eat our main dish after midnight. We felt hostage under the tasting menu that isn’t organized well and could only leave after 1AM (and that with asking the dessert to go) Overall food is great, staff is very friendly If you’re into 6 hour experience and willing to say goodbye for 200$ per person(with the wine pairing), go for it! The only reason for 2 stars is based on the experience as a whole and value for money.

The service and the food was exceptional. Every dish was delicious and presentation was exquisite. Farm to table. Very homey and personal feel. Friendly hostess. I am a fan and will be returning back to the restaurant on my next visit to Panama City.

Dinner was amazing. The staff was sweet. Best cocktails in the city. They deserve to be busier.

Excellent food and service. Very friendly.

Loved everything about this place - great atmosphere, amazing food, fantastic service, perfect cocktails & home-made juices. Asked for vegetarian food, were told that would be no problem, the chef would make a special. He ended up making two different specials! Both tasted amazing, and the banana sorbet is to die for. Highly recommended!

Amazing restaurant! Very small and intimate, great service and exceptional food. They modified their courses when they heard that we were vegetarians and did a great job!

Exceptional service, very helpful in ordering, great food, highly recommend

Perfect. Very good moment. I will come back in my next time in Panama.

Very nice place to enjoy typical food of Panama with some special 'gourmet blends' that makes an exclusive 'traditional food'. Try the Table's Chef.

What a fantastic place this is! Food was amazing beyond expectations (and expectations were high), price not cheap but reasonable, great service, and fantastic atmosphere. If available, try the Black Pepper Ice Cream for dessert, there are no worda for such an awesome flavor

we visited from chicago, a city that has a lot of great restaurants. Riesen would give them all a run for their money, we couldn't have been happier with our meal.

This restaurant is an amazing experience that gives new meaning to what cuisine in Panama is all about. Impeccable service, locally sourced food and ingredients and a story with each course. Not cheap but an experience to carry with you a lifetime. Panama...this restaurant put you on the culinary map!!

The restaurant is very nice and the staff are friendly. Food presentation was amazing and very tasty. Reasonably priced for gourmet food. My only complaint is that we ordered one main dish each and it took 1h15m for our food to arrive even though the restaurant was not busy (only 2 other people).

The only thing Riesen and its chef are missing is a Michelin Star. Nine (?) course tasting menu. All Panamanian ingredients, sourced and prepared fresh. Just enough new technique and flair to raise the cuisine to new heights without losing the authenticity of origin. The slow smoked, milk-fed lamb, the pork loin with an egg yolk so perfectly prepared it had the consistency of a thick sauce, the root vegetable crisps, and on and on, finished with a chocolate desert so rich and balanced it reminds you why the ancestors valued it as much as gold. And each course personally presented and described. Best gastronomic experience in many years.

Delicious tasting menu, friendly family operation. I discovered I was staying right around the corner from Riesen and decided that I needed to give it a go. I was fortunate that it was a slow evening, because even on a Saturday, I was able to walk in at opening time (which was a rather "fluid" 7:00 turned into 7:30, though I was well informed about when they would open from my arrival just before 7:00) and get a table for myself. The service was great. There were multiple people waiting on me, all the way up to the pastry chef and head chef, who each came out to serve and describe the dishes they had made. The restaurant itself is beautiful. The dining area is well-appointed--simple, but elegant. The kitchen can be viewed from the dining area, but it is a generally calm and quiet operation. And the star of the show? The food was fantastic. The chef took several traditional Panamanian dishes and modernized and "upgraded" them. Ceviche with a nitrogen-flash frozen sauce was exquisite. Beef tongue on a bed of rice porridge (some of which was puffed to add a crunchy texture) was excellent, as was the lamb accompanied by corn prepared in a variety of ways. Delicious sorbet, luxurious cacao bean chocolate fudge cake. I enjoyed all of it. As I often do with tasting menus, I initially wondered if I would get enough food to fill me up, but by the time I was going through the second entree, I was struggling to finish--and I very much wanted to, because it was delicious. I'd love to check out this place again the next time I am in Panama City.

The best way to describe our experience is: UNREAL. This young chef/owner is beyond talented and beyond talented. I worked in the industry as a chef/GM for years and he’s a far better chef then I ever was. Ambiance was spectacular, service was great and food was stunning. This family owned operation is run like a tight ship and they sure know what they’re doing. ANYONE, visiting panama should visit this restaurant, it would be a sad disappointment for yourself if yon ever missed this experience. Everything we had was top notch and he deserves to go down as one of the best chefs of all times. Prices are very fair and affordable - id fly back in town, just to get dinner here again. Cheers and best of luck!

Riesen is a hidden gem in Panama City. We were pleasantly surprised with an overwhelmingly exquisite culinary experience (and we currently reside in Manhattan, NYC). The 10 course tasting menu was more than enough food as was the wine pairings. Each dish was thoughtfully created with elaborate ingredients and presentation. The Chef cooks everything on a coal fire grill outside. We sat at a table by the window overlooking the grill and were able to watch our meals being prepared. The food is organic and kosher. Every bite was full of dynamic creation. The red clams, aged duck and sancucho were beyond amazing. I have no complaints other than having an abundant amount of great food. This is certainly Michelin star worthy dining. The ambience was a rustic and trendy modern vibe. Best restaurant in Panama thus far. We highly recommend and will certainly return! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

This was truly a combination of a best in class dining experience mixed with the welcome and hospitality of a family gathering. Chef Hernan was very patient with all of our questions about his innovative techniques and his references to local and historical cuisine. We loved also interacting with and meeting his mom. Definitely make a reservation here if you're in Panama City and you won't regret it.

Family run restaurant with locally sourced food. Excellent service and really interesting menu. Highly recommend!

The best food in Panamá over the 4years having lived here. I wish I had known this place earlier!!

A stellar tasting experience. To call the food delicious and beautiful feels like too faint praise; each course is a little work of art to delight the eyes and palette. The chef is clearly familiar with modernist techniques, but avoids the common trap of letting molecular gastronomy wag the dog. The pairings are well chosen to compliment the food, with pours sized so that you can finish them and still remember the evening. And it was a whole evening. Some reviews complained about time between courses, and at just over four hours it was a long meal, but we found the pacing pleasantly unhurried. Certainly don't book a meal here expecting to go to the theater afterward, but do expect to be well entertained.

Best restaurant in Panama BY FAR. The entire experience from hospitality to food and pairings was exceptional. All of the food is organic and some of it is made in front of you in a wood burning oven. Highly recommend.

I've never had such an incredible or holistic experience at a restaurant as I did tonight! The food was the best I've ever had - and I can't believe this is not on the list of the 50 best restaurants in Latin America when it far surpasses the ones in Panama City that are. Honestly it could be in the top 50 in the world. Not only is the food incredible but there are so many lovely touches - a tour of the research kitchen, some olives and a small cake to take home, and a delicious cocktail to close the night. I highly recommend a night at Riesen to anyone visiting Panama City!

Astounding experience. Incredible food. Great service. Outstanding drink pairings. Takes on food that I had never thought of or experienced before. Worth every penny and I was in a state of pure bliss by the end. Will be back next time I'm in Panama!!!

We had the most wonderful birthday dinner at Riesen! The food, service, atmosphere, & experience was all top tier. There wasn’t a dish I didn’t love. I can’t recommend a visit here enough. Go hungry!

So my love found this restaurant online & booked for my birthday dinner . Let me say this, it did not disappoint! The space being as it was , created an intimate dining experience where we got to experience the chef and sous chefs create every dish. I opted for the wine pairing and every drink was better than the last lol. Dinner experience was bar none , and I’ve eaten at very good restaurants every time I travel and this is one of my favorites. It was like a symphony of food curated just for us . We were even give a tour of the chefs creative lab where he explained a few techniques in his creation process , unforgettable.When in Panama, go to riesen and expect to be wowed ! Thank you chef hernan and your team , and give your mom my love , again thank you.
