Considered “Living testimony to civic memory” by the Museum of the City and "Place of tourist interest" by the National Tourist Secretary, the El Querandi restaurant is one of the most intimate venues in Buenos Aires in which to experience the romanticism of the Tango.
Description
El Querandi
Established in 1920 as a bar, El Querandi underwent restoration in 1992 and is housed within a historic mansion dating back to 1867.
With a seating capacity of 190 people, each table at El Querandi is privately set, adding an extra touch of romance to its inviting decor.
The show
The show “Nuestro Tango” tells the story of Tango, its key performers and events from 1860 to the present day, and its tradition in Buenos Aires. Four dancing couples, two singers and an acoustic quartet – piano, bandoneon, violin, and double bass – make it an unforgettable evening. The show lasts for approximately 75 minutes and is divided into five parts. Also, this option includes an open bar.
You have the option of reserving just the show or with dinner included.
Dinner with or without a wine pairing
