Tempo Buffet in Sault Ste. Marie

I was so excited to visit Tempo as the menu online was filled with lots ‘Mediterranean’ options. Unfortunately the head chef has changed and therefore the menu has changed. There were very few actual Mediterranean options, seemed like mostly food you can get at any other Italian restaurant in the Sault. They took out most of the things I was looking forward to trying. The food we ordered was alright. The service was excellent and the food fast, servers and management were friendly. So sad we missed out on the old menu!

The restaurant is a little hard to find. You have to go into the parking lot and into the building and then look for their sign. Loved the staff friendliness. Fast and courteous. ​I liked the music as well (modern and trendy night life). They have a tv that shows the kitchen so you can watch your chefs create your meal. We had the charcuterie for two, the short rib with potatoes and the toasted gnocchi. We ordered too much but the prices were so good and we really wanted to try a few things and we just had to lol. Everything was phenomenal. The portions were huge on the charcuterie and short rib and my wife said the gnocchi was just the right size. We have friends coming through this way soon and we are definitely going to recommend it to them. My cocktail was an old fashioned with house brandied cherries. Very enjoyable as well.

Delicious. A nice refreshing take to fine dining in the sault. High quality food with obvious passion from the chef. A classic dining experience from start to end. Charcuterie board for 2 is the picture. Please give this place a try and support local art.

What an experience!! A restaurant that has a passionate and beyond talented chef Brennan....an outstanding meal that is heaven in your mouth. Dave was so patient with my decisions and able to explain every menu option down to dessert. Fully recommend this super clean well organized and casual yet intimate atmosphere. Hurry up and experience a piece of fine dining.

One of my favourite spots in the city- a must! And the Marconi's new pizza stands out in a sea of options, 10/10 #supportlocal

Well spaced and the food was next level. Will be bringing my wife back here for a nice evening out. Chef/owner is enthusiastic and excited and it showed in every about the place. This steak sandwich literally changed my life and it's all I've been able to think about. The roasted red pepper soup was decadent and velvety. Well done guys.

I reside in Toronto and I come here for work and by far the best experience I’ve had at any diner establishment in the Sue. It brings the taste of home and fine dining which I miss when I’m here. The Two chefs Brennan and Dan are outstanding artists at what they do. Now We can’t forget our favourite waiter David. Always a good time when his here. I wish these guys had a restaurant in Toronto but nonetheless I highly recommend. Don’t miss out. If wondering what to order, it doesn’t matter. Everything in the menu is delightful. Cheers and keep up all the good work.

Finally, a restaurant with mediterranean dishes here in Sault Ste. Marie. My husband and I both got the gluten-free stuffed chicken, which was one of the best stuffed chickens I've ever had. I really enjoyed the open kitchen aspect of this place, it was entertaining to watch our food being prepared. It was nice to see a menu that caters to everyone's dietary preferences and restrictions.
