A brilliant evening! The show was non-stop entertainment (even our 6-year old daughter loved every moment) and filled with much more than just tango (as other reviewers have described). The meal was delicious and the theater was gorgeous and just the right size. The hotel pickup/dropoff went seemlessly. Highly recommended!

More than tango as other reviewers have said this wonderful evening showcases much that Argentina has to offer the tourist. It's a carefully orchestrated and fast moving evening from pickup at your accommodation to drop off around midnight. The dinner and the waitstaff are part of the performance. Streamlined, attentive and smooth; drinks are delivered, menu choices are made and... More

I had the pleasure of visiting La Ventana for work, Class Adventure Travel (rough life, I know). We're a South American travel agency and we decided to visit to see if we should include this tango location in our tours. I was blown away! The food, performance and atmosphere made for a very fun evening. There are two different shows... More

Expect to see a lot more than just tango at La Ventana. The two-hour show was a sensation for me. The tango dances were beautiful and sexy. The dancers performed in pairs and in groups. Aside from the tango dances, there was a spectacular Gaucho show that I suspect could never been performed in the US due to the performer's... More

Wonderful show. Recommended to everyone who loves dance and tango music. Good wine too included in price. Malbec is now our favourite. Cd was good value and a great momento of a lovely evening. Very nice people and great venue in a tunnel!

A must do in BA! We bought at our hotel who recommended the La Ventana to be the classic kind of tango. Total cost including transfer , 3 courses dinner and 2hrs show. Transfer ontime, La Ventana first impression was amasing and cozy, dinner has options for all tastes and was superb, wine and water included and the show...wow! Professional... More

First, the venue. The show was held in the “Del Virrey” room which is in the basement. It was seriously overcrowded to the point where you literally could not move once seated for the show. The room was overcapacity by at least several hundred persons. The tables were narrow and the seats were very uncomfortable wooded chairs. There were only... More

We attended the Tango Dinner/Dance show and it was just fabulous. The dinner was excellent, but the wine cheap quality. However, the Tango performance and local musicians performance made up for it and we enjoyed the performance very much - well worth the high priced $180.00 front row seats. The performance lasted the full 2 hours and was very entertaining,... More

This is purely for the tourists but well worth the visit! The food was fantastic, especially the Baby Beef, and the music and dancing were amazing, although the Eva Peron section and Don't Cry for Me Argentina song was a bit too shmaltzy for my taste!

2.5 hours packed with Tango entertainment. Professional dancers and performers. Almost too much to take in. Definitely get your money's worth. The meal is also surprisingly good for a treatre restaurant.
