Small Chilean restaurant run and owned by a lovely couple. The atmosphere is great with outdoor and indoor seating not far from Takapuna beach and live music with talented regular musician Ricky to add to the vibe. The evenings to late night are the best time to visit if you want to experience this atmosphere. Otherwise, the food and location are great anytime! However, if you want to be transported out of Auckland and enjoy a bit of fun & friendly South American culture with delicious food, good music, and sometimes dancing then check this place out for a fun night out. 10/10.

Amazing experience at El Origen! We tried everything: empanadas, pastel de choclo, sopaipillas, as italiano, mechada italiana, teas… and everything was absolutely delicious! It felt like homemade comfort food. The place is beautiful, cozy, and full of lovely details — from the decor to the live music, everything made us feel at home. Honestly, it felt like getting a warm hug while being fed amazing food. Also super kid-friendly! They were so kind and attentive to our 3-year-old daughter. We absolutely loved it and will definitely be back! — Arianne Calderon

Chorrillana and mechada pastelera was good! Could’ve had more beef tho. Also tried the empanadas and they were nice and tasty but they are a bit small for the price ($12). Also when they had to reheat 1 empanada, was still cold inside, so should have been longer in the microwave and then in the oven to get the crust. In a good bakery you can get a premium big pie for that money, so either empanadas should be cheaper or they should make them bigger in my opinion.

Chacarero

Chilean bread, beef steak, green beans, sliced tomato, green chilli and homemade mayonnaise. The ingredients for a chacarero reflect the freshest produce from the land, a masterpiece of flavour and ingredient combinations adapted to the environment.

Churrasco Italiano

Chilean bread, beef steak, sliced tomato, smashed avocado and homemade mayonnaise. "Italian-style" steak sandwiches with their unique chilean twist.

Barros Luco

Chilean bread, beef steak and melted cheese. In the barros luco sandwich, the combination of beef and cheese on toasted bread soaked in the juices of the grilled meat is simply magnificent.

Che Milico

Chilean bread, beef steak, fried egg and fried onions. A classic combination of meat, onion, and fried egg where one of the main secrets is to keep the yolk runny so that it bursts when served.

Completo Italiano

Chilean bun bread, sausage, chopped tomato, smashed avocado and homemade mayonnaise. The "completo italiano" (chilean italian-style hot dog) is undoubtedly the king of fast food in chile, available practically anywhere.

El Origen is an absolute gem in Takapuna! They serve delicious, authentic Chilean food that truly hits the spot full of flavor and heart. Their cocktails are fantastic, bursting with creativity and Latin flair perfect for sipping while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere. another thing that really sets El Origen apart is their outstanding service warm, friendly, and always with a genuine smile. You instantly feel welcome and at ease.

And then there's the live music full of summery Latin vibes that transport you straight to a beach evening in Latin America. It's a refreshing and enjoyable experience, especially in a more traditional and reserved area like Takapuna. A big YES !! for "El...
