    We loved predalina. We sat outside and the temperature was perfect and not noisy ! We loved our server Frankie! We started with zucchini chips and saganaki both were amazing. For our mains I got salmon and my husband got lamb both of which were so good. For sides risotto and carrots and then for dessert we tried the baklava and cheese cake. Everything we ate was seriously so good we couldn’t stop talking about it. Highly recommend this little spot if you love Mediterranean food and a cool atmosphere. Thanks Frankie!!

    Everything was beautiful about this place. The server Sophia was the kindest and we never had to worry about our drinks or needing anything. Went for Valentine’s Day and the only complaint I have for their special menu for Valentine’s Day is that they wouldn’t substitute for my girlfriends shellfish allergy so we had to just order from the basic menu. But! Everything we ate and drank was phenomenal

    We really enjoyed the opportunity to experience Panamericano at the Punch Room! The San Pedro Ceremony was such a unique experience and we really appreciated that Aistis took so much time to explain the drinks and the goal of Panamericano’s experience. All of the drinks were absolutely delicious! We look forward to visiting their Miami location soon!
