Definitely recommended! - I'm so glad my friends and I did this show on our last night in Buenos Aires. The venue is intimate enough that no matter where you sit, you can see all the performances easily. Yet it's simultaneously large enough that the crowd easily feeds off the fun routines. It was more than just Tango dancing also, which was a wonderful surprise as we really enjoyed the mix of other cultural performances mixed in with great Tango dancing.

Good Dinner and Great Entertainment - What a wonderfully entertaining evening. My wife and I were visiting in Argentina and it was recommended that we see the show at La Ventana. The meal was fantastic and the musicians and dancing were all top-notch and full of energy. It was a wonderful evening in Buenos Aires!

Enjoyable evening with my boss - My boss and I went to the dinner and show and both really enjoyed ourselves. The dinner was better than expected but we had low expectations. Go with their recommendations. The show was really entertaining, the music was good, and the tango was awesome! Get there at the start of the dinner time for better seats.

READ: Overpriced, tourist trap, good show - I recommend reading the reviews carefully. Maybe use various sources, including Redit. The 3 stars reviews are pretty reliable. We spent a lot of money in dollars for five people on New Year’s Eve. Here is the run down: They were late picking us up at the hotel. Of course they had had to pick up other tourists after. When we got to the location, Ventana, they made us wait yet another half hour. Then, without warning, they took us to another place, Michaelangelo. No reason, just to another location. When we complained, they tried to sell us snake oil by the less than capable and unfriendly staff. Because we had no choice at this point we agreed to be in the other venue, taking away the experience we hoped for. At 9:30 pm they sat us to eat, the show was at 10:00 pm in yet another location. Needless to say we had no time to eat before the show. They food was NOT was was in the menu. The service was bad needless to say. The waiters tried, it was not their fault. But it was bad. The show was great. This is why they get 3 stars. They get 0 stars for service, food and organization. A 100% Tourist trap. Try to really look for a quality show and have dinner separately. Read the reviews carefully. There is a pattern in the accounts given by customers. Take note. For us the end of a three-week trip in Argentina was this place unfortunately. At 3:00 am we were starving and felt so ripped off after paying the exuberant prices.

Fun show, bad seating - This show was fun and included singing, music, and dancing. The dancing was more varied than just tango, and the musicians looked like they were having a great time playing together. We did not do the dinner, and were instead sat in an upstairs area with a limited stage view which was disappointing. It may be worth doing dinner if you want better seats. Another show may also be better if you're looking for more artistic dancing/costumes - this was an entertaining variety show though.

Watch Out for “Optional” Dinner - Be very very careful about the “optional” dinner portion of this. In reality, it’s the first 90 minutes of the event. I had only booked with Viator once before. I didn’t pay good enough attention and got lumped into the full dinner with rides. When I talked to the venue about the mistake, they bounced me to Viator. Viator kicked me back to the venue. Long story short, got hosed. Do not recommend.
