Expensive for an hours show.

We had a lovely time but I thought the show was expensive for an hours entertainment , also there was a lot of numbers which were just singing and no dancing which was not how the show was advertised. Traditional and professional with friendly attentive staff. An enjoyable experience while in Buenos Aires but I wouldn’t return.

Real tango show for independent travellers

This is an intimate performance with only 30 guests, so everyone is really close to the action. The quality of song, music and song was outstanding and it was a great evening out. We met the artistic director and one of the dancers and learnt a little of their background. No tour groups, everyone enjoyed themselves.

Bad experience

This show is a no go. Sound is realy terrible and load like in a disco. You do not understand anything from tango performers. Dancers not bad but no passionate intense or emotional atmosphere. If you don't sit in the first row you have an obstructed view to the stage. Big colum in front of the stage. Positive service with wine, water and sandwiches.

Really nice but not great

Nice experience in a small intimate place. Super talented dancers and musicians. The older man who band the show together must have been skilled once. The owner of the place sang a single song and it sounded excellent

A small intimate experience.

A very intimate experience. A small audience where you all get a perfect view, sitting at tables with a glass of wine. All the performers were amazing.

Great night

An enjoyable night. The show was at 18:30 - which was a good time for us. It was well organised and the MC was excellent - lots of jacket changes, The food wasn't that great, nor was the wine - but we were really there for the music and dancing and both were good. Smallish venue, with a small crowd - so we had front row seats with a great view. Great value.

Amazing

Absolutely amazing experience! The service is top notch from the moment you step into the venue. The musicians, the singer, the dancers, every single one of them gave a performance of the highest quality. I attended with my mom, she loves tango. We’re from Mexico and we were moved to tears by the show. Specially when "Volver" by Carlos Gardel was interpreted. The staff was excellent, always taking care of the customer's needs. I’d say it’s the best tango show in Buenos Aires, very elegant. Totally worth your time and money!
