I love coming here for the salsa classes earlier in the night. They're a little fast paced for beginners and watch out if you don't speak Spanish but for me? Amazing! It's a decently large class filled with lots of different people so it's easy to make friends with others and laugh along the way. After the class the band is ALWAYS amazing. Tons of people drinking, eating, and dancing. If you're a girl, be prepared to get asked to dance by a host of different fellas. Im in my 20s and danced with a couple of men who had to be in their 70s !! Overall, great place to go to meet new people and dance the night away. read more

Fun if you are HERE to dance salsa all night, but not really for much else. Cover is a little steep for what you get, and seating is extremely limited - be prepared to be shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers the whole night. Food and drinks are priced pretty typically for Roma, so nothing crazy there. The crowd is mostly regulars who just come to dance. When I went there were no dance classes or instructors, so if you're a beginner expecting a lesson, don't count on it. If you love salsa and want to dance non-stop, you'll have a great time. If you want to sit, chat, and have drinks, this probably isn't the spot for you. read more

Good drinks and service, gets a bit crowded, and if you want dance there are three dance floors but all packed. Band was good played some classics and more modern salsa and not all Cuban salsa. read more

This place is so fun! I visited on a recent trip to Mexico City and needed to stop here. If you enjoy salsa dancing, this place is a definite must visit. They have a live band and I was surprised at how packed the place was when we got there and it was only about 10pm. It got more and more crowded as the night went on. If you don't salsa dance yourself, you could just watch the band and all the people dancing, but may have a hard time finding a seat because of how packed this place gets! read more

Great space to dance and there's plenty of room to lounge around with friends when taking a break from dancing The open space to watch the live band below is a nice touch and a great use of space. Drinks are affordable. I believe they charge to get in. Nothing too crazy. Great vibes and guaranteed good times. read more

Was visiting CDMX from Tues-Sat and wanted to go out on Wednesday night so we found this spot. My friend and I are avid social dancers and try to always find a good/more local spot whenever we travel. There was a great live band. Good quantity of intermediate dancers that asked us to dance at random, which we're use to. Cover was only 50 pesos (~$2.50) for the females. Drinks/bar service was good to! Beer is very cheap. My friend and i spent about $20 for 2 top shelf drinks that would be $35+ in the states. The only "con" would be that it's a smaller venue/dance floor, but we kind of prefer this type of place. I would really recommend and my friend and i regretted not going back Friday night since everyone told us it was popular then to. Instead we tried mambo cafe, which was okay but a lot more club/table service and not really our style. read more

It's a hopping club that holds a swift 1-2 hour class by this amazingly petite and thunderous woman who can salsa anyone under the table. She's so good and convincing that she makes you feel like you can dance too... for a moment. After the intro the class moves upstairs for a round robin for about 45mins. By 11 the club is swinging with couples and a live band. If your not dancing or trying to you'd feel a bit out of place. Lively and crowded with so-do drinks. But what does that matter when you're having a sweaty good time? read more

SCAM ALERT!! CHECK YOUR BILL EVERY TIME!! They knew I am not from here since I didn't speak Spanish. So the guy who is in charge of taking drink order and give you your bill decided to charge me 6 TIMES THE AMOUNT I SHOULD PAY (after being super friendly to me and calling me his friend). Fortunately I glanced at the bill and realized by no way my order was that much since I only had 1 non-alcoholic drink. The guy replied with a series of lies in this order: 1- He went ahead and lied to me that the bill is correct and it's for 2 alcoholic drinks. I said "No, false, I am allergic and do not drink alcohol, and hence I'm also not drunk, I can also count, and too bad for you I know I had 1 drink" 2- Then he switched strategy and said "Oh so the bill is for you and your friend" My reply "No, we have separate bills. Also she does not drink enough to bring the total up to this" 3- He left pretended to get money from my friend, but came back with some cash which did not make up the difference. So I wasted another 5 mins telling him this is not ok, I won't tolerate your dishonesty which is shameful to the nice Mexican people I have met during my trip. Oh gosh I disgust this type of behavior. Be nice and get fat tip. You are hurting the reputation of your country! Also the manager was there and did not care. read more

Fun! Very much so a great place to go for salsa dancing and a "scene" of 30 and up folks. There was so much fun energy! Drinks are about 85 pesos. read more

Great ambiance, great dancing if that's your thing, cheap drinks. Who can ask for more? This is my new spot in Mexico City!

Terrible bouncer, terrible vibe. Really ruined a birthday. Do not recommend. If you see the large neon orange signs walk away

so much fun! we came by to enjoy a bit of salsa and drinks and had a blast we're both total novices when it comes to salsa so it was nice that there was a class for beginners that was really easy and fun to follow along it definitely gets super crowded after about midnight and wear comfortable (closed toe!) shoes read more

So much fun! Excellent, live music! You can't help but dance here! People are there to have a good time Loved it read more

The Summary: Atmosphere - 5/5 Neighborhood - 3/5 Staff - 4/5 Food - N/A Drinks - N/A Inclusivity - 3/5 Experience - 4/5 The Story: Came here as a surprise with my boyfriend! Environment was fun, inviting, and definitely an authentic spot for tourists looking for a good time. There's a small dining space to the side when you walk in, and the rest of the ground level is open space for dancing and a stage for live music. There's also a lounge-feel too it. An upstairs and backyard keep the space inviting for those who might want to take a break from dancing and socialize. Once the band started the space was crowded, so you had to be extra careful to not bump into a couple showing off their moves, or into a waiter still doing their job. It was a fun night out, and I recommend it for couples or friends looking for a great time - tourists & locals alike! read more

Whoaaaa! This place was amazing! Definitely recommended if you're wanting to scratch that salsa itch, or just stand at the edges of the crowd and watch the pros spin it. Definitely more on the pricier side due to the location, but wow what an experience! I went with a group of foreigners, so we were charged $100 each for entry, and drinks were around $85-100. That being said, well worth the price as it was definitely one of my highlights of CDMX! read more

This is an amazing dance club! The wait staff is very customer centered and friendly. The drinks are a tad bit pricey, but I don't mind because the music is marvelous and the people are upbeat. What more can you ask for?!? Five stars! read more

I love this place. Unpretentious with friendly people,looks like locals go there too. There was great band the night we we're there. I got my Cuban salsa on powered by a glass of cold mexican coca cola. I wouldgo back for sure. read more

Good place for Salsa lovers. They have a live band with many songs and people really enjoy their music.

I think this place deserved a four star rating! They have a nice live band that was playing for the rest of the night and cover charge wasn't that bad. Having a big group, finding a table and seat wasn't that bad. Ordering drinks was fast and quick! Servers keep on checking if everyone is good and drinks are all good! The live band is very good and watching everyone dance with there tune was amazing. All clients are happy and everyone is dancing. The only issue I have is the space for dancing salsa. There was not enough space for everyone however, it seems that it wasn't an issue for everyone as they all still dance with the tune. Prizes wasn't bad either! A great place to enjoyed watching and dancing salsa! read more

Great tango spot in Mexico City. Great vibes and the live band was incredible. Good for a chill night out.

The experience for the dancers is awful. The place is full of tables and not enough space for dancing. The place have tons of potential. The furniture arrangement needs to be thought out to accommodate the dancers for an ultimate dancing experience. read more

Nice place good atmosphere would come back. More of a chill and sit back. There is also lots of other places near here which are walking distance read more

This place was awesome! So much fun if you enjoy salsa dancing or just watching great dancers. And they had an excellent live band the night we were there (a Thursday). We tried to dance with the locals and had a great time, even though we are definitely not on their level! And we mostly know how to dance in the "on 1" style and think they may be dancing "on 2" (or maybe it's the other way around!). Overall, an awesome night out in Roma Norte (which, by the way, is a good choice for locale when staying in Mexico City - even though it was our first time there, the neighborhood was safe and had a lot of great food and nightlife.) read more

This place is so fun. 9-10 they have a salsa class and it is amazing. It only cost 50 pesos to enter. Definitely a place worth going if you're a tourist in CDMX! read more

This place is cool! I had a great time, good music, Cuban drinks and people. Pricey but a good time go out and dance and meet some other people than mexican in DF... Cover was like 200 pesos I think but we enjoyed ourselves. read more

This is one of my favorite spots that I have been to in Mexico City. The music is awesome and the atmosphere is fun! I would definitely recommend this place to everyone wanting to dance and have a good time. read more

This is an absolutely fabulous dance club in La Condesa. Live music and outrageously good dancers. It was so fun to be on the floor all night but there is space to sit and sip a drink too if that's your thing. A must go if you are trying to go out dancing & feel the salsa vibes. read more

The atmosphere of this place is super fun. Get there early to get a good spot, although this stinks since the band won't be on until 11:30ish - wish they went on earlier. The drinks were awful, and this is coming from two people that are never picky about drinks. We couldn't finish our drinks because they were that poorly mixed. read more

Came here the night before my 6am flight. It was the perfect ending to my trip! 110 pesos to get in when I went and it was worth every peso. The crowd was incredibly nice and everyone really seemed to know how to enjoy themselves. Every salsero really knew how to move it and I wish I could go there every weekend! read more
