Consistently serving up amazing food! Have been here a few times now with different seasonal menus and service, food, quality is always amazing. Prices are definitely on the higher end but so good for a special occasion and the portions are great for a fancy spot. Between 2 people we were already full from the first two smaller dishes

A personal favorite, a modern take on South American cuisine without losing the essential flavors, which can only be achieved with deep knowledge of a particular cuisine. Wood fired food techniques with mastery, rich sauces with layers of flavors. The most attentive hosts and great atmosphere. I have brought multiple friends to dine here and nobody has been disappointed.

Loved our first dinner here. We arrived early for our reservation and was very kindly welcomed by Ashleigh. From the fabulous grilled octopus to the beautifully charred rib eye, including the broccoli and potatoes, we had one mouthful of bliss after another. The octopus was bursting with flavour and balanced out with the crema. The steak was wonderful, grilled to perfection and topped with the chimichurri was a match made in heaven. Finally, we finished with the suspiro dessert that came with a theatrical flair - burning the merangue with an iron spatula on the table. We were so full and were already planning what to try on our next visit. Compliments to the chef and the team. Looks like we’ve found another gem to add to our favourite go-to places.

I am totally blown away by this restaurant. Its a total gem with amazing and cosy atmosphere. Latin music - love it. We arrived on Valentines evening and it was packed. The table we were seated was close the bar, hence heavy wait staff traffic. Center tables were a bit too close to each other. We kindly asked to be moved to a quitter table corner seating and they were very kind to do so. We were given free cocktail shots from the bar which was really nice. Service from start is excellent, very friendly and welcoming staff considering a busy stressful night for them. We thought of ordering a bottle of wine but we would get 4 different cocktails for the same price, so why not. Their cocktails are amazing especially the margarita and Lychee. Entree we had the King Fish Ceviche and Banana prawns... totally blown away by the taste. The mains were Grilled Market Fish and Grilled Pollo rojo Spot on. Desert was Milhojas de Fruta, All in all it was a wonderful experience and has become one of our favorite restaurants in Auckland. xoxo. Total bill for 2 people. $240.00

We celebrated our friend’s birthday on Saturday night at Milenta and WOW, what an experience! ✨ First of all, the vibes… felt like one of those chic, moody restaurants you find in France, dim lighting, music on point, just pure ambience magic. And can we talk about the team? Ashley and Camilo were the absolute sweetest, gave us amazing recommendations and made the whole night feel extra special. Special shoutout to Sam for crafting the dirtiest Dirty Martinis. Now the food… I’m still thinking about that beef tartare (unreal), the crudo and those oysters?? OMG. Every single dish was a 10/10. Thank you Milenta!💕

Thank you for celebrating special women on Mother's Day! The food was amazing, particularly enjoyed the Peruvian Kingfish ceviche and the grilled octopus. The service was attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

This was our first time dining at Milenta. Absolutely delicious food (note the amount of food they give you per dish is incredible) and amazing service. Would highly recommend dining with Milenta and can't wait to go back.
