We don’t spend too much time in Bocastown, but yesterday we were there running errands and decided to go try a newish restaurant - Gringo’s Mexican.
In a word - excellent. The food is fresh and amazing and well priced for a tourist town like Bocas del Toro. Gringo’s definitely does Mexican food the right way - like eating at some Mexican grandma’s house… no canned ingredients, everything freshly prepared and excellent hospitality. The owner, Gary is very welcoming and friendly. The margaritas are exceptional (which is not an easy find here in Panama) and we will certainly be going to town more often, just to eat there.
We ordered the Stuffed Burrito and the Quesadillas along with two margaritas and were very satisfied with our lunch.
Gringo’s is located a block off the main drag of Bocas del Toro - head away from the water on the street that runs to the centre of the park. You’ll see their sign shortly after turning off main street. You can also look out for the Golden Grill on a corner lot on main street - turn there.
If you are looking for excellent food at a good price in Bocas del Toro, then Gringo’s restaurant is definitely the place to go.
Did I mention the fabulous margaritas?….
