Panama 66 offers a delightful casual dining experience in Balboa Park! I tried the pulled pork sandwich and it was fantastic, served quickly with crispy fries. The outdoor setting is great for soaking in the ambiance, especially with live music. Perfect spot for lunch or dinner...

Panama 66 is a delightful spot in Balboa Park! 🌳 On our recent Friday evening visit, I savored the delicious pulled pork sandwich, perfectly paired with crispy fries, while my friend enjoyed the flavorful halibut plate. The fast service really impressed us, delivering our meals in just about 10 minutes!

The outdoor seating is a lovely way to enjoy a meal, especially with their heat lamps during cooler nights. Plus, the live music adds a charming ambiance. Just be prepared to order at the counter first! Overall, a great casual dining experience in a beautiful setting! 🎶🥪
