An enjoyable evening of Tango - Despite the driver turning-up late, this was an enjoyable evening. The pre-show dinner was excellent - generous helpings and plenty of wine. The show venue was cosy, the dancers and musicians were very good. The old guy singing at the end was evidently well known to the locals in the audience (A local Max Bygraves?) I would recommend this package

Great meal and Great show - Transport arrived ontime at Recoleta Hotel (not Palermo Soho as we thought). The restaurant was very nice and the 3 course meal and wine were very good. We then crossed the street to the theatre and the show was superb. Well worth the money. Transport took us back to Recoleta and then a short Uber to our apartment.

Exceeded expectations - This experience exceeded my expectations. Pick up at my hotel was right on time in a nice van. The restaurant extended a warm greeting at the door and led me to my own table. The restaurant looked very nice. Waitstaff was very professional. I had a fresh, tasty salad as a starter. Then, I had the steak dinner, which was prepared exactly as I wanted and was a generous portion of excellent quality meat. I had flan for dessert, and it was wonderful. Then, everyone walked across the side streets the historic theater for the show. We were shown to pre-assigned seats with small tables. Drink orders were taken right away. The show, which lasted for 1 1:2 hours, featured excellent musicians, singers, dancers and bolo gauchos. Mini buses were waiting outside at the end , to take us back to our hotels. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this dinner and tango show.

Fantastic night out! - This dinner and show was recommended to us and we were extremely glad it was. The meal (steak, empanadas, flan) was delicious. We walked across the road to the show. It was energetic, entertaining, and fun! The dancers and other performers were awesome and very talented. Thank you for this great experience.

The show was so lively... - The show was so lively and passionate! It was also great to learn a little about the history of the venue through the video that played before the show began. Service at dinner was friendly and fast, and it was nice to only have to cross the street to get from dinner to the show! This was a great way to start our trip and experience performance-style tango.

First time to tango - Dinner was not as good as we had found at other places . The show was great . Only thing that could use some improvement is the chairs were extremely uncomfortable , and there needs to be some air circulation ( fans or an AC ) it got very warm in both dinner and show locations

Can't recommend; pillar obstructed tiny stage. - I cannot recommend for the price. For the show we were seated at obstructed view table. They shouldn't seat anyone behind pillars! The theater chairs were small and uncomfortable and the room was hot. The dinner was very nice, except at the end when waiter asked for tip $. We were close to the venue so there bus ride wasn't long, and was on time. Not a good value.
