Tempero

Had an amazing experience at Tempero last night. The staff were very attentive and welcoming. Despite the restaurant being full we were provided excellent service. Plus, the food was absolutely delicious! We especially loved the lamb tacos and picanha. It's well worth the price and we will be back to dine again in the future so we can try the other dishes!

Had the most wonderful dining experience last night at Tempero for my husbands birthday - it was honestly the best meal we’ve had in New Zealand, not only was all of the food incredible the hospitality of the staff and the chef was so personable and you really felt like you were at a family restaurant. Every dish & cocktail we had couldn’t have been better but our personal favourites were the gnocchi, lamb and the cheese bread! We can’t wait return and try more new dishes. Thank you Tempero for such a memorable night!!

Chanced upon this restaurant and booked it because of the overwhelming number of 5 star reviews, and we weren’t disappointed! Service was outstanding - we were greeted so warmly and felt so looked after the entire time. Our table was small but the timing that our dishes came out was perfect so we had time to enjoy each dish without having an overwhelmingly full table, which I appreciated. The chef even took his time to serve and greet us which was a lovely touch. The food was delicious, one of our favourite meals and launched Tempero into our top 5 places to eat in Auckland. Everything we ordered was amazing, balanced, and cooked to perfection. It’s clear there’s a lot of love and care put into the food. Cheese bread was SO cheesy and light. Crab gratin had so much crab meat and it tasted very fresh (hard to come by good crab dishes most of the time). Scallops were perfectly cooked with lovely smokey flavours, crispy kumara bits on top and a delicious honey, butter and lime sauce that was so balanced and not overpowering. Gnocchi were so soft and beautifully seared, with a creamy, emulsified lemony sauce and added nuttiness of the hazelnuts. Finished off strong with a churro that was immensely crispy on the outside but so soft on the inside (along with a very sweet Happy Anniversary message, and a post card 🥹). Definitely will make our way back to try some of the other menu items! Thank you so much to the team at Tempero for such a wonderful experience!

#Latin American Restaurant# Amazing，chicken hearts are the most special ones I've eaten with smoky flavor and juicy！ Truffle season， you can order extra fresh truffle into pasta or risotto！

Amazing experience at Tempero. Head Chef was lovely - he greeted us personally and explained the menu to us. Everything we ate was absolutely delicious. We had multiple cocktails - all amazing (Paloma, Margarita, Caipirinha). Beans were a standout as well as crab Gratin served beautifully in scallop shell. For main we ordered the Fish Moqueca also delicious and an enormous serving which they kindly packaged for us to take home with us. Cannot wait to return and try more of the menu.

Incredible experience! Thank you Tempero Team. The service was amazing, so friendly. Food is so fresh and delicious. The mole, gnocchi with truffle and horchata are worth going back for to have again, however their menu have so many good looking dishes it’s hard to choose. Must try!

Enjoyed a stunning late night second dinner. The service was fast, friendly and very attentive. Loved the pace of the meal too. Highly recommend leaving your destiny to the staff it you're unfamiliar with the cuisine. Thanks to the staff
