  • 4/5 Panama G. 8 months ago on Google
    Spacious cafeteria restaurant serving panamanian creole food, sandwiches, desserts, pastries, breads, and mediterranean with middle eastern options. This is one of the top franchises with a professional environment. It is a good option for anyone wanting a casual eatery with great sitting area without the fuzz of a full service restaurant. A walk through the line will expose you to falafels, gyros, creole food such as rice with chicken, fish fillet, roast chicken, sancocho soup, and a bunch of other things. There is also a small bakery section. Had their creole food late at midnight and it was decent. The four items that I had - fried chicken, yellow rice, lentils and salad - tasted okay. Then on my second visit I tried the club sandwich. There must have been something wrong because the meat tasted bad. The omelette, though, was very good. It had been exactly thirty years since I ate at this place. Along that time, more branches were added and changes made along the way. Reading through the reviews, I have to agree with those who lament the present day food. Their original club sandwich set the standard for how delicious such a thing should be. It was amazing back then but it is not the same anymore. Regardless, the food is decent so it should appease most people. Customers are attracted to the pleasant brightly lit environment, service and cleanliness. This is the only 24-hour place in the vicinity of its type.

    Good, but they didn't have what I was looking to eat

  • 3/5 A P (Alberto P. 5 years ago on Google
    Cheap, average taste, relatively quick food. Clean service, “quick food on the table” unless there is too many people trying to pay, you’ll get food in less than 6 mins ready to go. Food is very average, not bad. Club sandwich isn’t really worth it. The taste is whatever, probably not what you’d expect for 10$ , and they take a lot to be done. Expect to spend 15-30 mins to have it done. You can find way better sandwiches anywhere else for less than 5$, and they won’t take that long.

  • 5/5 Stephen M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place for a quick bite if you happen to be in Panama City on a Monday at midnight. Great parking too.

  • 3/5 Frost J. 7 years ago on Google
    Food is pricey for what it is. I'd only recommend getting sandwiches here. Personally I only get the Pollo&Pavo (Chicken and turkey) Club Sandwich on Pita bread

  • 1/5 Samuel W. 2 years ago on Google
    Yeah...I wouldn't come her again, at least not for the gyros. So yeah, don't come.

  • 3/5 Winston J. 2 years ago on Google
    The food is good but bland. I guess they don't want to risk too much fo what they call here "sazón" which translates blatantly to flavour. If you don't ask for a thimble of chilli sauce the food will taste "Meh"

Chinese restaurant
😠 I was so disappointed, but sorry, but Don Lee is NOT good Chinese food. The food was bland and just not good. This is just my opinion, but Chinese food is one of my favorite foods and I eat it all of the time. This was a first for me...and a last.
