We've been to the restaurant a few times and love the food. Everything taste fresh and unique. Presentation is always on point. However, the food is only a small part of why this place is so great. Their service is amazing! We stopped by most recently on Mother's Day. The restaurant was full but we were attended to as if we were the only customers in the restaurant. When I asked for extra salsa our server asked for it over her walkie-talkie. When it didn't arrive in a few minutes she went over and got it herself and apologized. The salsa wasn't life of death but (I was fine without it) but the effort was greatly appreciated. I was also impressed by their speed of service. While still ordering our food another server came over with the drinks we had just orders minutes before...while our server was still finishing our order!! The food is great. Everything was delicious. What made the experience memorable was the service.

I’m surprised on the great service and great ambiance if you like Mexican Banda and great drinks 🍹 Non-Alcoholic & Alcoholic. It’s great vibes place. Brunch is popular here. Staff is very attentive. Valet parking $8 and take cards.

I totally loved this place! Food and service were phenomenal! I loved that they have a "dealers choice" of drink and so the bartender surprises you. I would love come back again!

Great place to hang out or have your first date. Nice vibe and good service. Variety choices of the drinks and food. We love it. Not easy to find parking so i suggest preparing some cash for valet parking

There are better quality restaurants that do not limit your time to eat and drink, the food was ok but couldn’t really enjoy it do to the pressure of the time limit. Drinks were typical. Tables were too small . Valet is rushing you off when you’ve just been asked to clear the table as soon as your time is up. Would not recommend this place if you like to enjoy your dinner especially if it’s for a special event or occasion. Mr. Tempo you need to do a better job especially catering to customers. Was unable to finish my drinks 🫤

This is not Tempo, I can’t change the location on my review. This is Padre Latin Table and Cocktails in Long Beach. We enjoyed the vibe and food was good, definitely recommend the loaded fries with the chipotle aioli 🤤 Their fish tacos were also bomb, and I was surprised they had a couple raisins in the fish tacos, I actually enjoyed that. We also order a margarita 🍹🍹🍹pitcher for I think $45 Unfortunately it was very watered down for all the ice🧊🧊🧊 it came with and even though we had three margaritas each, we didn’t even feel a buzz. It’s pretty cool that the first floor is a restaurant and on top a pretty cool bar.

Who doesn’t love great drinks alongside with delicious food?! Tempo was an outstanding restaurant with great service. I loves the aesthetics of the restaurant itself and the food of course.

Great restaurant with good vibes and atmosphere. They do have a valet parking which makes it easy to get in when they aren’t busy. Hard to find parking on street. The food has really good flavor. Price point for what you get I would say it is a little higher than I would expect. The drinks were extremely good. I would definitely recommend this for a girls night out, and/or date night.
