Caleta
Panama
Caleta occupies a waterfront setting at Sofitel Legend Casco Viejo in Panama City's San Felipe district. Mahogany panelling, leather banquettes and aged mirrors give the dining room a historic character, while chef Lorenzo Di Gravio's cooking draws on tropical ingredients and Mediterranean foundations. Menus change with the seasons, using local produce and responsibly sourced seafood. Contrasts of temperature and texture are part of the kitchen's approach, with contemporary combinations reflecting Panama's ingredients. A second-floor private dining room offers a more secluded experience, where a bespoke tasting menu can be arranged for a celebration or group meal.
