Stay away from Tre Scalini...

I have to start by saying that my wife and I have been going to Tre Scalini weekly for the last two years. It has been our Monday date night location since we arrived in Panama. Anyway this week we took our kids with us because we just arrived back from vacation and had little food in the house. Everything was normal until I got about half way through my meal where I took a bite out of a sizable piece plastic in my pasta dish. I showed the waiter the problem . He walked away and never came back. I decided to continue eating my dish after no one offered to take it away a prepare another. At the same time my youngest son who is 7 and who had filled up on appetizers decided he had finished and asked the waiter to box up the rest of the meal (he had ordered the same pasta dish that I had). 



When we finished desert we asked for the check somewhat annoyed that no one apologized for the plastic in the food. We asked the waiter at that time to remove my meal from the check which he did. However they refused to give us the partially eaten meal of my son stating "that we only paid for one meal" and they would not give us the meal for my son. They said that I had eaten my meal and we had only paid for one so they could not give us the partially eaten meal to take home. 

We asked for a manager but no manager appeared or would come to the table.  After getting home I looked at what we have spent over the last 2 years and its well over $5,000.


This was a very disappointing experience (which could have been fixed)...and I have to say stay away from Tre Scalini.
