Madero Tango: Tango show with optional dinner

Pickup was kind of confused, we are expecting to get a call when they arrive at our hotel, but was informed that they don’t do and expect customers to wait at the lobby during the 30 min window allotted for pickup. Got the steak but was not asked how I wanted it cooked so it was not to my liking. The show was good tho.

We took the transport, dinner + show formula in VIP seats (in front of the stage). The bill mainly concerns dinner and transport. The meat was tough, poorly cooked and full of fat. Everyone at our table left some on their plate. I looked at the other tables, it was the same. The wine was too young. At the end of the meal just before the show, the waiter presents you with a card which specifies that you must tip! As in France we don't have a tipping culture, I found this unwelcome and I was shocked. The show is calibrated for tourists; good but nothing more. The sound was a little distorted. At the end 2 dancers show you, if you want to participate, the tango steps; nice. The shuttle will pick you up at your hotel, for the return it will drop you off 3/4 minutes walk from the hotel! fend for yourself. As the weather was nice it didn't bother us but in the rain I wouldn't have appreciated it. In conclusion, there are better places elsewhere.

Our table was right off the kitchen with waiters coming and going all the time. A table can fit up to 10, so you are squeezed like a sardine. They have round tables so you may have to turn your neck or chair to watch the show and hope you are done with dinner by then. The show didn’t impress me that much and they should provide some sort of explanation or summary in English… although no one speaks English in Buenos Aires. Food was average. I wouldn’t book it again
