Tango Sur

We visited to celebrate a friend's birthday in the private room in the back. What an amazing experience! Our server, Pedro, was spectacular. The tastes, smells and ambiance were spot on and the staff went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was everything that we hoped for. I can't wait to return!

Tango Sur offers a delightful blend of flavors in a cozy atmosphere. The food is exceptional, with their grilled meats standing out for their tenderness and rich taste. The rustic charm of the restaurant adds to the overall dining experience, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff is attentive and friendly, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the meal. Whether you're a fan of Argentine cuisine or a first-timer, Tango Sur is a fantastic choice for a satisfying dining experience.

prob (imho) the best date place in all of lakeview hands down. the food never deviates from excellent. for starters either go with the el'fillet or for two: a porterhouse. place is always packed so you want an hour wait time for a table. if you're looking for a complimentary after place try ñ on Elston (right by Western ave).

Tango Sur is a true gem for any meat lover! I recently dined here with a dear friend, and we opted for the parrillada for 2. The variety of meats, including the unexpected delight of sweetbreads, was a pleasant surprise. The portion size was generous, and we ended up with enough leftovers for another meal each. Remarkably, the per-person cost was under $30 (pre-tax/pre-tip), making it a fantastic value for the quality and quantity of food. But here's the bonus: the Argentinian market next door! This place supplies the meats to the restaurant, and we couldn't resist picking up some empanadas for a party. They also offer a selection of authentic Argentinian sodas and heavenly alfajores. Just a heads up, the market is cash only, so be sure to come prepared. Tango Sur and its neighboring market make for a delightful duo that's sure to satisfy any carnivorous cravings. Highly recommended! 🥩🇦🇷

Tango sur offers an intimate, candle lit, dinner setting. They are BYOB, but unsure if there's a cork fee. First time visiting I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly etiquette of the team, and their knowledge of their menu. The food portions were more than fair, making their prices extremely reasonable. The dinner entrees were also delicious. The only disappointment was their ensalada paisana, which I included a picture of. There is hardly any greens on it. The plate consists of heavy amount of mozzarella along with 4 half-slices of tomato and a pinch of sautéed spinach. The cheese was good, but without Lettuce/greens I did not enjoy it enough to finish it. Other than that, I will visit again, but will avoid ordering salads.

If you want to have a taste of the famous Argentine steaks and meats, Chicago's got you covered. Argentina is Latin America's equivalent to the US's Midwest as far as meats quality, tradition and expertise. This restaurant will literally save you the trip and provide a local source of inspiration available on a short drive. Great steaks, morcillas (blood sausages), samplers, salads and sides. While you're at it, try the great Quilmes beer, available.
