MAURO CLEMENTI
"An enthusiasm
for traditional Italian flavors and
Mediterranean fusion "
"My philosophy of Mediterranean cuisine, and more specifically Italian cuisine, is to work with fresh food prepared at the moment in order to preserve freshness and not stress the raw material with long cooking, thus maintaining the flavor, aroma and quality of food. Creating dishes, for me, is an emotion that is renewed every single day ...
I have been doing this extraordinary job for more than thirty years and, after having worked in many Italian restaurants around the world, I continue to enter the kitchen every day with the enthusiasm of a child. "
We are a group of dynamic and enthusiastic entrepreneurs, in love with authentic Italian food and
lifestyle, in Panama
We believe in the quality of fresh local ingredients, as well as the best traditional Italian specialties
"Made in Italy"
EVENTS
La Vespa, el Aperitivo Italiano and la Dolce Vita
are part of our lifestyle ...
History of a design and style ICON
Only in Italy could an ugly US military motorcycle be the catalyst that led to the creation of an icon of style and design. With more than 16 million scooters sold, Vespa has become a synonym for style, freedom and all things Italian ... The name alone evokes images of handsome people in beautiful places, an image that spread even more when Federico Fellini rode the sensual Anita Ekberg on a Vespa in his cinematic masterpiece "La Dolce Vita".

PIZZA PARTY, ROMANTIC DINNER OR CORPORATE EVENT?
WE ARE IN CHARGE!
At La Vespa we have adequate spaces for family and friends events,
as well as for corporate events, private meetings and romantic dinners.
We take care of the invitations, the decoration, the music or animation and, of course, the food and drinks that will make your event an extraordinary experience !

DELECTABLE DINING AT LA VESPA, PANAMA CITY
November 21, 2016
Recently, my husband, Eddie, and I discovered one of the best places to dine in Panama City, Panama. The La Vespa Restaurant and Cocktail Bar is a modern restaurant located in the Obarrio part of downtown. After being dazzled by their food, service, and menu options, it is no wonder it is ranked so highly on Trip Advisor. After only being in business for two years, La Vespa was a 2016 Certificate of Excellence award winner.
