Astounding! Every dish that we ordered was not what we expected - in a good way - although to be fair, we hadn’t heard of half the ingredients on the menu.
The food was so flavoursome and creative - the concha, cactus “guacamole”, 65 deg egg with green chorizo, the chicken “taco” with whipped garlic and charred shallots, and the very refreshing cucumber ice of the vanilla queso!
One of the best meals I’ve ever had in Auckland, for sure.
Our experience at Inti was amazing from the moment we walked in. We received a very friendly welcome from the staff and they went out of their way to seat us where we wanted. Complimentary sparkling water drunk from the handmade clay cups was available as we waited for our wine. The menu is brief but you're lost on what to order as its described in such a way that you really don't know what it is. Our Colombian waiter kindly did the hard work and chose two dishes from each section. Each dish was exquisite, tastes were new and intriguing but truly delicious. Visually the food was an incredible piece of artwork.
All the staff were attentive but not overbearing. Their advice and suggestions on dish selection and wine match made the meal an amazing dining experience. We will return so we can try the dishes we didn't get to taste. It's a must on anyone's gastronomic list.
This place blew our minds. The creativity and craftmanship, let alone the obvious hours of research behind each dish made the eating experience absolutely wonderful. I want to follow this restaurant throughout the seasons, confident they will come up with something wildly unexpected yet incredibly tasty each time.
