A WONDERFUL IN EVERY SENSE. UNFORGETTABLE. - Spectacular. A marvel. We were TWO times, we loved it. We went on April 21, the place is very nice and the reception was magnificent. All the employees are eager to make sure you are well and their kindness is very great. The show is a mix of magnificently performed tango dances and tango music, and with many references to Astor Piazzolla as well, the bandeonist is simply exceptional. It had been a long time since I heard a musician like him live. Magnificent!. His interpretation and execution of “Adiós Nonino” by Piazzolla is simply exciting. I think I also play “Libertango”. The musicians are very good, but he stands out above all and acts as master of ceremonies. Perhaps what we liked least was the singer, who only fulfills her role with her interpretation of “Nostalgia” and some other song and “mi Buenos Aires Querido”, which closes the beautiful show. There is also a spectacular performance by a couple of pamperos, a man and a woman who are also spectacular playing drums legüeros, or the fabulous performance with the boleadoras. A marvel. Dinner is up to par. They have vegan menus. They recommend - to save time - a menu of empanadas that are delicious, then very good roast beef and a flan with dulce de leche that takes the hiccups away. Don Carlos always served us at the table, magnificently and precisely. Giving us wise advice and an entertaining conversation. Without interfering in any way with the vision of the show. A great professional. Like everyone else. Anyway, now, it was the most free time we had that April day (from 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. more or less), and when we finished our beautiful tour of Argentina, on May 2, we REPEAT the show with dinner . Enjoying it as much or more than the first time. It was one of the best things we did on our trip through the immense country, on our trip and it will remain engraved in our hearts. If you ask me where to go see this type of show, I will tell you, suggest and shout: Aljibe!

A must when in Argentina - What a wonderful experience. We chose this Tango show, one of many advertised because it started early. We had the dinner included so we didn’t have to eat late. We found the building quite easy as there was a dapper gentleman outside to welcome us in. We both had the steak meal, which was delicious and cooked to perfection. The evening included drinks and the wine was free flowing! Great evening, great service. Highly recommended.

Excellent Tango Show. Well worth experiencing. - The Tango show, singing and dancing, was outstanding! Great service. Food was good and wine was plentiful! Overcharged the stated price for photo, which was disappointing.

Great show, food. Bad service - TERRIBLE service. Great show. Very good food. Dinner at 7. First course fine. Main served after 8--lights went out immediately for show. Had to use phone to eat. No dessert til 9:02. 200+ people. Only a dozen or so had terrible service. Wonderful talent. Incredible band leader playing small accordion. Really Incredible. Excellent older couple dancing classic tango. Three younger couples dancing more stylized tango very well. Gaucho woman and man team with the noise-making balls on ropes were amazing. HIGHLY recommend show but service may be extremely disappointing.
