This was my third time dining with Azahar. The lamb dumplings are one of the best items on the menu. The food is okay but very pricey for the quality of the food. The rosemary potatoes were falsely advertised no rosemary just parsley and salt. Yes I’m a foodie I expect what I read on the menu because that’s what I prepared my pallet for. I would visit again but I know exactly what to order for next time.

Exceptional tapas. Ask for the snack bar menu! We’ll be back on out next trip to Panama City. We shared 8 tapas dishes and had two glasses of Cava (sparkling rose) for under $70. before tax and tip. My wife thought it better than the very good tapas she’s had in Spain. For reference, I do very few comments on here.
