    Yelp or any other restaurant review sites

    Is there any popular website here in Panama similar to Yelp? Just looking for some good sites that can help me find restaurants and new places to explore based on user reviews.

    Also, is there any good news or what's happening around town type of site (in English?)?

    Thanks!

    Check every Tuesday the restaurant review section by Aristologa. Buy the newspaper or go prensa.com Panamá - Noticias e Información de Panamá (Click Vivir+)
    You could translate their website, just click select language.

    Degusta is great, use Google translate to translate the web page.
    Also have a look at Sandy Dientes

    My top picks are:
    wine bar/pomodorro
    La Posta
    gauchos - had an amazing bottle of wine from Uruguay there and the steaks are good.

    1985 seem inconsistent
    market was ok, but I ordered chicken and got very little of it

    head to amador if you want some great views of the city, but its a bit pricey out there and to get there.

    Make sure you try the ceviche in Panama if you haven't already.

    I use mainly three english newspapers about Panama, although they are not nearly as good as reading La Prensa. The designs make my design heart ache, but the information is decent.

    HOME | Newsroom Panama - Panama News and Events in English
    Panama Guide - Thousands of Articles in English
    The Panama News, Panama's English Language Newspaper

    Regarding Yelp, there are a new service called TratosHechos where you can request services and review service companies. Not in the restaurant space, but good for services like catering or renovations.
