Nice show, disappointing meal

Joan J, Jan 2026

The show itself was nice but not outstanding, although some of the singers were excellent. The food was mediocre and not worth the price we paid.

Fun night with dancing

adrianem838, Jan 2026

We really enjoyed the dinner and show. There was a lot of variety in the show with singing and dancing. ???? The show was in Spanish and even though we are English speaking only we still enjoyed it!

Good if watching tango and candombe for the first time

Beatrice_T, Jun 2025

If this is your first time watching tango or samba, this show is a good introduction, but if you have been to Argentina and Brazil and watched tango and samba, you will be a bit disappointed. Nice and intimate ambiance with 15 tables max. The performance was 90 minutes long with three dance troupes showcasing each type of dance. The tango dances were interspersed with a man and a woman singing, so there were only three tango dance performances. As for the food, hte main dish was OK. My husband and daughter ordered the fish which I thought was better than the steak I ate; it was kind of hard to chew on so I ate only 2/3 of it. The Uruguayan tannaz wine was good and so was the medio medio (mix of white wine and sparkling wine) - drinks were open bar - all you can drink. We also enjoyed the desserts.

Unexpected and Wonderful. So glad we found this.

Carol_S, Mar 2025

What a terrific evening! We expected to see tango dancing, but the show was so much more. This evening was cultural immersion. Food was okay. Local wine was outstanding.
