La Ventana Tango Show & Dinner in Buenos Aires

Full of high paced excellent entertainmentk great music and dancing. Good was very good wine was nice all well done

I had already heard of La Ventana via an AI recommendation so I decided to ask my hotel to book the VIP Dinner & Show with Wine Tasting package for my birthday. This was my first visit to Argentina and to me this personifies the culture. The venue honored the 10% discount that they offered on the website and the admission for two for this package was $342 USD. This included pickup and dropoff at the hotel, wine tasting at their cellar, preferential seating, a bottle of wine or champagne, three course dinner for two, and the show which featured Tango music and dance, a beautiful rendition of Evita, a Gaucho experience (drums, dancing, boleadoras handling), and folkloric* music (strings, percussion, pan flutes). The performance was about 75-90 minutes (did not keep track of time). Franklin, the Sommelier, who is originally from Venezuela was very knowledgeable. He took a personal interest and we managed to speak with him briefly after the show. Franklin spoke about the history of each wine, where (the grapes) are grown and the properties of each wine we tasted. Although Malbec has been my favorite for many years, Franklin opened our eyes to other wines that are well worthwhile. The place was packed. I would estimate that there was over 100 people and the other empty seats were near us, in front of the stage. The venues allows pictures and video but no flash for the safety (and distraction) of the performers. My only dissapointment was that the famous Argentine Skirt Steak was an extra charge ($50 USD). However, the food quality of all the items we had was excellent and par with a four star restaurant in New York City.

After an immense amount of research of the various shows, I picked La Ventana. I’m so glad I did! My family absolutely loved it, from the initial impression of the beautiful venue, to the outstanding dinner, the level of service and of course - the tango dancers. It was a night to remember. Well worth the cost for a lifetime memory. We also liked the variety of the dancers, the singers and the gauchos/folklore music. As one Australian behind us shouted, “so much talent.” I heard it was a bit touristy, but didn’t think so. And besides, who cares. It was a blast of a memorable evening.

Incredible experience, great musicians and dancers and manage to make the moment a unique memory. 100% recommended

Very good show! The food, the musicians, singers and dancers, everything was excellent. I recommend

What an AMAZING show and such delicious food. The wait staff were top notch and the environment was comfortable. Best empanadas we ever had with such flaky dough. Yum! The show was a huge highlight for us and the wine is a must do with your meal. If you're not sure to do this Tango show, book it and you won't regret.

The vintage bus was spectacular, what a novelty. The food, service and show was exceptional. I would highly recommend. Wonderful scenes all round.

The show was excellent! From the back of the dining room where were seated, it was difficult to see well. We asked for a vacant table closer to the stage and were informed that they cost quite a bit extra. The food was good but the seating was way too close. Over all the experience was good for a first time visitor.

The tour company forgot to pick me up at the hotel, the elevator in the venue was so scary (violently shaking), that it took 5 minutes after for me not to think I almost died. The Waiters were excellent, and the performers were too.

We booked the meal and Tango show. The venue was lovely and had some great memorabilia in the entrance hall. The starter, wine and dessert were very good, unfortunately the main course was not. Our steaks looked amazing but were so chewy, we couldn't get through them; we ordered medium but it was medium rare, the potato wedges were also hard and inedible, when we told the waiter he just said I'm sorry. The service of the food was good overall. But, of course, the reason we went was for the Tango show, which did not disappoint. The dancing and music was excellent and there were also singers, which we didn't expect, and thoroughly enjoyed. Despite the disappointment, with the steak, we would definitely recommend this experience, the highlight of our stay in Buenos Airies.
