OM Café & Bar
n December 2001, a young East Indian woman who grew up in Toronto, Canada came to Bocas del Toro with a dream. Her dream was to live in a tropical paradise and open a little restaurant where she could enjoy winterless weather, good quality of life and be around green jungle instead of the concrete jungle.
In September 2002, her dream was realized when she opened up OM Cafe in a little street side location with the help of her mom, who, armed with her culinary expertise and family recipes, worked tirelessly to create a diverse and delicious menu.
Everything at OM Cafe is made from scratch the "old fashioned" way, from the masalas, to the paneer and even homemade yogurt. We pride ourselves on the fact that we don't take shortcuts in making delicious authentic Indian cuisine.
