Buenos Aires Nightlife Tips by wadekorzan

Asia de Cuba Restaurant and Disco
Located in one of the newest districts of buenos Aires called Puerto Madero, this seems to be one of the hippest places to go at the moment. It starts out as a restaurant with great food and atmosphere and then turns into a disco--with great music--around 1:00 AM.

One should definitely see a tango show. There are many to be found throughout the city, but probably the best by far because of its beauty and diversity is called Señor Tango. I would not miss this! Dinner and the show costs just 75 pesos (as of March 2002, prices change often here), so it is a great deal for dinner, all drinks included, show, and transportation to and from your hotel.

Another popular show is completely different than Señor Tango. It is called El Viejo Almacen, located in one of the oldest buildings in Buenos Aires. It is said to be the best tango show in the world, but that is to be disputed. It is good, but the best? I don't know. In any case, if you see just one tango show, I would go to Señor Tango in the district of Barracas (near La Boca). If you see 2 tango shows, then I would also go to the El Viejo Almacen, the one in the picture.

I have heard of another one that is supposed to be quite good called Esquina Carlos Gardel. I think it might be quite good but definitely wouldn't beat Señor Tango.

Apparently this place is quite well known, though I have just discovered it. It is a place to go with friends to eat or to drink. It's situated in what was once a HUGE house, on three levels, and there are all these different rooms on different levels with different atmospheres where you can just sit and chat to friends. It's very casual, with small stools for sitting, couches, etc. It's really hard to descibe just how great this place is if you have not been. Part of the place is reserved for eating as well.

There were lots of foreigners there as well as locals, so this place is known and very popular!
