    Wow , Wow , Wow!! My husband had octopus on some salad, just for starters. In this photo is the Flap steak with mashed potatoes it was the best flank steak I remember as a young child. The best part was the atmosphere very nice view of the lake. Enjoyed this restaurant the first night of our stay in Ajijiic. Best steak house and seafood in the Malcon.

    The food here was spectacular. I had been in Mexico for two weeks already and was craving some wider options than the norm and this place definitely didn't disappoint. All the dishes were amazing and the service was phenomenal.

    This venue offers a wide variety of food, all of which, we've enjoyed. They're busy but service is speedy. The menu says this is a filet for "2" people - it's true! The 2 of us will be eating the leftovers for 2 days!

    Located just a stone's throw from the lake, my partner, his family, our friends and I can see why this establishment is consistently a top rated restaurant in Ajijic. Upon entering yesterday for dinner, Tango Ajijic itself is very warm with beautiful paintings on the wall, thatched roof and fans. A pretty extensive menu featuring just about anything you could imagine in both English and Spanish. This restaurant employs a small army of wait staff and unfortunately didn't get the name of our server. Complimentary warm rolls started the meal with various condiments such as butter and chimichurri sauce. For appetizers, we started out with various empanadas. For entrees, several salads were ordered, 14 oz Skirt Steak (Arrachera) with pasta, Grilled Provolone Cheese, and Chicken with Alfredo. The salads were excellent, huge portions and would make a great main course for vegetarians. If you've ever had Arrachera (skirt steak), one knows it's supposed to be cooked quickly over high heat, to seal in the flavor and melt the considerable amount of fat. My Arrachera was near that quantity but slightly salty. Good food selection prepared to perfection. A pleasant ambiance and good prices which we can recommend.

    This place was recommended by the owner of the AirBNB where I was staying as well as by one of the shopkeepers that I had visited, so I stopped in for lunch. The service was great, super fast and friendly, but the food was just so-so. I really wanted to like the place, and the ambience is amazing, but I was really underwhelmed by the food. Maybe if I went for dinner instead of lunch it would be different.

    Tuna Sashimi

    Great food, excellent service. Definitely need to try the octopus Al ajillo and tuna sashimi totally my favorite.

    Octopi with portobello mushrooms was salty and the bread was stale. The octopus was a bit chewy.  sweet wine was good. Staff were great.

    See all

    Great food (avoid the pizza) and attentive staff. Also looks out at Lake Chapala so a visually delightful restaurant.

    Steakhouse in Mexico. Good service. Steaks are very salty. Reasonable prices. In the Argentine style feels like a chain

    New management and waiters distracted and socializing amongst themselves. Happy hour crowd absent. Used to be lots of fun.

They have a wide selection of items and is a great restaurant for a large party. I ordered the salmon dinner. Each meal is served with their house salad. The dressing they use is delicious! It's a honey mustard base but it's not overpowering and is very light and refreshing. If you get anything from this review please please please try the crujiente de platano for dessert! It's so delicious, has great texture from the crunchy cookie/wafer crujiente, and is still very light! It was definitely the table's show stopper for the evening. The service is incredible. They are generous and very attentive. They have menus in both English and Spanish. I believe our waiters name was Alejandro. He was very kind and did his best to communicate with us in casual conversation throughout the evening. I'd highly recommend this establishment!

Beautiful decor, open air all around, filled with happy people. The service of course is impeccable. The bread came with 3 salsas, they were all amazing. The sausage and asparagus appetizers were absolutely delicious. My La Vaca steak was fatty, juicy, seasoned well, cooked perfectly. I would highly recommend this place!
