Taberna la Malagueña (El Cangrejo)

El restaurante creo es el mas famoso de todas Panamá, el servicio es súper atento Bebidas bien fría el lugar se presenta bien peró el lado negativo es la comida! Comí allí varias veces y lo siento mucho però vamos mal ! No volveré a comer allí !

Went on Sunday for the Paella/wine offer but was very disappointed with everything. The food , the service was not as it used to be. I have been visiting La Malagena very regularly since it opened. Yesterday we went as a group of 4 people and ordered the Paella and wine. It was very quiet in the bar just 8/9 people and was told it would take 45 min to prepare the meal. No problem, so we also ordered a couple of starters. After 40 min and no wine or starter we asked when it was coming,. The waitress had forgotten to tell the chef of the order( It was just 8 people in the restaurant not 108) Also where was the wine. They brought the wine and quickly the starters.. The croquettes where absolutely tasteless, had no idea what they were but the squid rings were nice but oh what a tiny tiny plate for the money. Suddenly the football commentary began over the speakers, so loud that you just could not talk and the waiter could not hear us aghhhhhhh... The Paella came after 1.5 hrs , and that too was incredibly disappointing, no taste , the muscles were tough and the prawns wet and mushy. We had good company and that was all that was good. I used to love Malagena but it is now super overpriced with poor service and very very disappointing food and I would rather spend my $100 elsewhere.. Will I go back, sadly no.....

Bueno esta vez tome la terraza para un poco de aire fresco y si no eres fumador no es aconsejable. Demasiada gente fumando cigarrillo y tabaco. Pedimos unos camarones que siempre están ricos. Y bueno pedí un vino el cual no fue de mi gusto a lo que pedí que me lo cambiaran y me terminaron cobrando al final de l que no me tome también porque ya habían abierto la botella según ellos. No volveré sin embargo recomiendo mucho más la de San Francisco, mejor ambiente, mejor clientela, mejor atención. Mi humilde opinión.. esta vez no anotaron puntos conmigo.

Creo que deben mejorar el servicio hacia el cliente, las papas estaban ricas y la sangría también, buena promo de los sábados

Es una apuesta segura, tapas a precios razonables y siempre ofertas en bebidas. Excelente opción para ir con amigos! Mi única observación es que 20 minutos antes de terminar el happy hour los meseros se esconden detrás de la barra dificultando a uno pedir. Una vez nos dijeron que el happy hour habia cerrado y aun faltaban 10 minutos para la hora.
