We decided to have an a la carts dinner a second time. I must say I was very pleasantly surprised with the not just good food but great food and service. The presentation was great and the freshness of the seafood and steak was great.
We will be back. Highly recommended.
Amazing food, staff are lovely and the chef really knows what he’s doing. My partner and I are looking forward to staying in palm cove next time so we can dine here again!
Food was really good, couldn’t fault any of the dishes. The staff were very professional and prompt. The only reason I didn’t rate it a 5 was because they forgot our coffee but otherwise, definitely worth trying.
The staff are super friendly. The food modern and exciting. The atmosphere is tropical resort style. I can highly recommend. Take your togs and go for a swim pre or post dinner.

Had a fantastic romantic dinner at the Temples of Taste and was seriously satisfied. Walked there from The Alamanda at nighttime but a few people told us to be wary of crocodiles along the way. Still trying to work out if they were serious! Arriving at the Sea Temple reminded me of an episode of Survivor with the torches blazing and the bold Indiana Jones type frontage of the resort. This is actually a compliment as it is very visually exciting and added a bit of mystery to the evening! Had a lovely passionfruit and lime caprioska at the bar to start and our barman was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He even had us trying a couple of wines that would accompany our dinner. A true sommelier in action! For entrees we enjoyed Coconut Crusted Prawns and Crispy Baby Calamari. Very good! We both chose the Seafood Curry Pot for our main and this was filled with prawns, mackerel, scallops, calamari,and blue swimmer crab served with flatbread, pilaf, pappadums and mango chutney! Dinner was sensational and the service was very good to match. For dessert we had a fun "Dropped Ice-cream" which was a cinnamon and nut crunch, chewy maple, rosemary and marcapone ice-cream! What a great evening!

We decided to dine at this restaurant to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary.Clearly the restaurant does nothing special for these occasions (unlike certain other high-class restaurants in Cairns and Palm Cove that have gone the extra mile to acknowledge such an occasion.On arrival, we had to go up to the bar and order our starter drinks, then pointed to a table "down there" which turned out to be only set for 3 people (not 4 as booked).Whilst the food was very good, we were very disappointed that we had to sit outside in very steamy heat (staff said that the inside air-conditioned area was only available at breakfast time !). With the current temperatures in the Palm Cove area, this was very uncomfortable ! The hotel managers obviously spend most of their time in their air-conditioned offices !Waiters were obviously also suffering from the heat, one in particular being very "short" and over casual (clearly driven by his suffering in the humid heat) - this is, after all, supposed to be a "fine dining restaurant" and one expects a lot better service for these prices.For the first half-hour it was not a very welcoming atmosphere - sort of "Oh God - customers !!"Eye fillet was first-class, however - perfect ! Wine selection also very good. Presentation of the spatchcock was very strange - try eating a butterfly-d bird out of a bowl with salad, etc, all in there together - difficult !
Fantastic evening out with our children, service was fantastic and the food was beautiful. Definitely would recommend as one of our favorites in Palm Cove, especially all the option for the children.
We just returned from Palm Cove. I try an visit every year and have always found it easy to get a good meal up there. This trip, no such luck!
After suffering through restaurant after restaurant of bad food, we finally dined at Taste Temple.
It was a little out of the way from the main row of hotels and restaurants on the esplanade but glad we ventured off.
The Taste Temple was beautiful. Food and scenery was excellent.
I had the seafood curry pot which was bursting with flavor and my partner had a baby barramundi. We really enjoyed it!
Too bad there was a table with two young families sitting right next to us...
We'll be back.

We dined here on New Year's Eve and each had a sumptuous 3 course set menu of pork belly (yum!), cheese and fig tart (yum!) for entrees, lamb shoulder and steak for mains and the delicious Nutella parfait and vanilla panacotta for desert. Great service, lovely food and reasonably priced.
Had a fantastic meal. Confi.... Had a fantastic meal.
Confit of duck starter and black angus fillet main which was cooked to perfection
Great service and great food! We will definitely be back! Highly recommend the steak, the whole dish was a flavour bomb in your mouth. The Korean BBQ shortib was a bit dry and lacked Asian flavours but overall we had a great dinner and the servers were great. We also enjoyed the soft shell crab starter. Thanks!
My fiance and I had a wonderful experience at the Temple of Taste ❤️
The restaurant was technically closed, but the team made arrangements to seat myself and my fiance at a beautiful candle lit dinner. The food was outstanding, and the staff were extremely excellent and polite. I would highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We have enjoyed their service from breakfast, to afternoon cocktails to dinner in this restaurant , and it was amazing. The people that work here are the highlight of my stay in Pullman Palm Cove. They are hard working and accomodating to everybody.
Dinner was definitely one of the best I’ve had during my trip. Lots of flavour and the House Wine Moscato was so good, we did not regret having the whole bottle!
The menu has vast number of options to choose from. The pricing is on the luxury side, however the quality of the food matches the price itself.
Breakfast was also good - not extremely great, as there’s nothing unique about it. It’s your typical Australian breakfast from your local cafés. I just think that their coffee needs more improvement.
Cocktails are well mixed. I know what a good Mojito is and they are one of those people that makes it just perfect 🍹
Incredible food. Full flavours and good sized portions. George was our wait person, who made helpful recommendations, and was super friendly and fun!
Entrees- prawns, crab and scallops. So flavoursome. Mains - beef rib, pork chop, duck curry. Absolutely loved all of these in their own unique way. Each dish was booming with flavour and cooked to perfection. To finish we had the dessert platter, which was a great way to try all the menu. The only improvement is tie ambience, feels a bit like a hall and doesn't have a nice dining feel. But don't let that deter you from dining there as it was the best meal we had.

I can't fault this place, beautifully presented food, all the flavours complement each other. Not an extensive menu, but when food is this good, you dont need any extra. Great wine list, complementing the food choices. So much better than some of the other offerings in Palm cove. The staff are very attentive and helpful.
Temple of Tastes Christmas Eve, fabulous food, wonderful venue and great wait staff. Thank you for a special treat, we loved the experience.
We eat at a lot of fine dining restaurants and we have to give this one 5 stars..the setting is so lush and romantic and the food..my goodness..I gave my duck curry dish a 10/10 and that doesn't come easily in my book. Compliments to the chef and we will be back in a heart beat. 🙏
