Salomas Panamanian Cuisine

Amazing Ceviche!!!I wish I lived here. I would eat it everyday This will change your life!

The fried pork was really good and tender, I wish they had the sweet plantains when we were there! My husband kind of liked his chicken. The pork was definitely better. The flan was absolutely amazing! Everyone who worked here was super sweet and we enjoyed talking with them.

Very clean and inviting when I first walked in and greeted right away. One of the owners said they have been open at this location for 11 months. This is my first visit and it did not disappoint...Saloma's Panamanian Cuisine, a hidden gem in Fleming Island, offers authentic Panamanian dishes that are like a party in your mouth. The fish ceviche and Panamanian Platter are excellent choices for sharing, and the chicken soup is flavorful and rich. Save room for a cup of Cuban coffee and the homemade flan, which is delicious and rich but not too sweet. Be sure to ask about their homemade sauces, which add an extra layer of flavor to any dish. Look forward to trying more items on the menu.

First visit we will be back!Excellent service- very attentive and thoughtful! I brought a collapsible bowl for my dog to have water & asked for 2 cups of water- server asked if it would be for our dog & brought out a large stainless steel bowl full of ice water! We sat at the table outside - Since we had a service dog (in training) they offered for us to sit inside but it was her first time at a restaurant so she is still learning how to sit near us at a table & we don't want to get in anyone's way.Cozy ambiance inside well kept mom & pop type hole-in-the-wall several tables and booths inside & 2 small tables outside.Fantastic food I had the roast chicken- it fell off the bone it was so tender & moist. I poured the kidney beans onto the rice & they were home style comfort food delicious!The other human had the pulled pork sandwich topped with pickled onions & he said it was fabulous! Reminded him of food and old friend once made.Great value! 2 humans ate dinner on a Friday night with 1 soda under $35 before a well deserved tip!

My mom is from Panama and I wanted to treat her to food from back home. I was surprised that they weren't more packed because the food is amazing. Restaurant - It's tucked away in Fleming Island. Very beautifully decorated, with plenty of seating. Felt like home. Service - The owner was so nice and sweet and catered to our requests and questions. Some of the sides my mom asked for I didn't see on the menu. So if you're from Panama and you think of some of the typical foods, more than likely they have it.Food - We ordered a variety of food. Started with the variety of different appetizers. I may cook a lot of these at home, but it was great seeing the variety of chicken and steak and sauce options. I also love when I don't have to cook it. The food was full of flavor. We got very typical dishes that we miss and again very flavorful. Nothing was overwhelming. Finished with a brownie and Chicheme drink. Really good. It was a hike for me, but worth the drive and the prices were reasonable. I would definitely recommend if you're wanting to try Caribbean/Hispanic dishes that are different than the usual offerings. Small business that I would keep going back to.

Panamanian cuisine. Really, really delicious. Lovely owner and family with personalized service and family atmosphere. Such a nice change of pace.

The food was just ok and very expensive. Not one other person in the place and it was lunchtime. Hmmm. That should have been a red flag!The host/server, although nice difficult to communicate with. I would NOT recommend this place.

Well, I was hungry And didn't get a chance to take pictures of our entree but I had the lechonara with rice, red beans and sweet plantain, with chimichuree..... man, I ate it all lol!.... my wife had the roasted chicken with the same sides, she didn't finish it because of the quantity. I tried it and lover it too... the chicken is so tender!... the cafe con leche, forget about!... yummy and the flan too.... service was amazing g and very friendly, check this place out!!

This place is a gem!!! Such a good find. The food has always been delicious and the service is Top Tier, the staff is so kind! I couldn't recommend this restaurant enough.

I would like to first say that this restaurant was empty upon our arrival ( which should have been a red flag) Lol. However, the place was very well decorated with beautiful Panamanian decor made by the native Sand Blast Indians, who are the indigenous people of Panamanian. The restaurant overall was very clean, with adequate seating to include a very nice coffee bar for additional seating. Most importantly the wait staff was very friendly and very knowledgeable of the menu.Outside of all the above aforementioned, the food did not fare as well. I ordered the roasted pollo chicken which was very tender but to salty, white rice was dry, lentils were cold, and the yucca had been over fried. My wife order the chicken breast that was also salty and over cooked, along with the empanadas, and yucca that were frozen and deep fried. In addition, my daughter order the tenderloin platter that was tough as leather and couldn't be consumed. The price point was very high for so poorly prepared food. Salomas Panamanian Restaurant will not be on my list of favorite destations to go when I am hungry. I was very disappointed and will not be back, and will not recommend to my friends and family.
