Food and service were wonderful! Location was perfect and within walking distance from our hotel.

This place is such a cute little restaurant, I met one of the local because I was dining by myself. He told me that this place has been a long run for years and are neighborhoods favorite. The area used to be popular but covid a lot of things closed so the area now only locals go. The service is great, and the food are delicious. The seafood are very fresh and delicious, they specialize in seafood. Highly recommend the risotto, they put cheese in it too. The waiter doesn't speak much English very still very willing to help and recommend what's good. If you eat early it's easy to find table but if you come around 2pm the place is packed read more

Great place where all the locals gather for lunch. We were pretty much the only English speaking people there, but Rene was so nice at the bar. Brush up on a few verb conjugations and you'll be fine! :) read more

We came in on a Friday before 9 and was told it'll be a 20 minute wait. A couple left the bar, so we snagged their spot and order off the full menu from there. The bartender was awesome and very jovial. It made the experience. For food, I ordered the seafood rice and the mussels were amazing. The peas were fresh. Hubs ordered the black risotto. He won! It was very good, with a solid cheese base, with shrimp. The black color is from the squid ink. The food came out relatively quickly. The risotto was quite steamy whereas the seafood rice was warm, maybe having sat a bit. Not sure. Overall, fun space and good service. Tasty food, if you're in the area. Tip, make reservations. There was a good wait as we were wrapping up. read more

Very good lunch spot with "tapas" that are on the large side. We arrived at about 1PM on a Friday and the place was almost empty, yet all the tables were reserved, so we sat at the bar. Within 30-45 minutes, the place was packed - so if you want a table, go early or make reservations. The bar was very comfortable, though, with high stools and a good view of all the food coming out of the kitchen. My knowledge of Spanish is pretty rudimentary, so after puzzling over the Spanish menu for a couple minutes, I accepted the offer of an English menu. However, I can read just enough Spanish to realize that most of the "dishes of the day" aren't on the English menu. So - if you want to try what the locals are eating, break out your Spanish-to-English dictionary, amigos. I was feeling brave enough to order off the Spanish menu and chose the peppers stuffed with salmon. It was not exactly what I thought it would be - the dish was served cold, and the red peppers were stuffed with a creamy salmon mixture. I was expecting spicy green pimento peppers stuffed with hot salmon. Part of the adventure of navigating a foreign language, I guess. Not sure I'd order it again, but the dish was very attractive and fresh-tasting. My companion raved about the black risotto he ordered. The wine list is fantastic - I enjoyed a couple glasses of an Argentinian Malbec. I would definitely come back to Tancat with a Spanish-speaking friend. read more

This was my first trip to Bariloche. My husband's second trip. He is a native of Argentina so I am fortunate to have him to translate for me. This restaurant is a lovely restaurant. We had two servers Mike who is a native of New Hampshire, and Tatiana who is a native of Russia. I got the tenderloin with potatoes and mushrooms my husband got the trout. Both dishes were delicious and the price was very reasonable. We enjoyed a bottle of wine and a beautiful view. We received wonderful customer service. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the that is traveling in the area. As a bonus there's a couple of native birds that come to feed at the restaurant near their patio and feed. read more

First time in Argentina and loving all the reviews of this place I decided to try it out. The menu was extensive. They also speak English. I sat at the bar as I was alone but this was also common with guests who doesn't have a reservation. Servings was quite a decent size. I ordered fried calamari. It was nice and crunchy and really tasty. I asked the waiter for some lemon wedges which was great they had that. They also have tapas style food which you can order if you're going with a large group. And they're very generous with their wine pouring. Right to the rim! It gets really busy with a mix of tourists and locals alike. I would suggest making a reservation to save waiting or missing out altogether. The staff was super friendly, the ambience was lively and the food smelt amazing. I wasn't able to try all the food but I would definitely go back here as the whole experience was amazing. read more

Went trusting yelp reviews, place didn't disappoint! They have an english menu, seating is very spanish and the bar is awesome. They have some great wines and the food is just amazing. I ordered the black risotto with octopus, squid and shrimp in it. It was delicious, really look me back to Spain. I ordered a glass of Malbec and it was really good too. The server was very prompt and understood english. Since I was alone, I ate at the bar, but the seating was pretty good too. Must visit if you are staying in Microcenter. read more

What can I say this place in UNBELIEVABLY good. Anything you order from here is amazing. Every time I visit Buenos Aires I make sure to eat here. Heads up , make sure you make a reservation it's a very small restaurant and is usually packed with locals than being said its always packed specially lunch time. The seafood is great , specially the octopus and the papas bravas are insane. See you next year Tancat! read more

This is quintessential porteño dining. It is fabulous! The Shrimp in Garlic Oil are divine! And the Calamaretti a la Provençal are delicious. The Natilla dessert reminds me of grandma's. read more

I really wanted to like this place. It is a nice little hole in the wall type restaurant and wine bar that seems like it would be amazing. The decor is very nice and has a very comfortable atmosphere. For being such a small place it is very packed with people. The calimari I ordered however was burnt and the potatoes were very bland. I don know it it was just an off night or not. The rest of the food here looks and smells great. I think I would give this place another try because it seems that my experience may be skewed. But for now I have to only give 2 stars. read more

I went three times on a recent visit to Buenos Aires. Great food and service. The bar is a great spot for solo travelers. The food is authentic and fresh. My favorite dishes are the tortilla de campo and the tapeo sample. Also tried the chipirones which were delicious. Lovely flan. Make reservations if you want a table; the place gets very busy! read more

We had a wonderful lunch of true Spanish style. The atmosphere is great. The place is a little crowded but it feels good, as if you were in a tasca catalana in Barcelona. The waiter is perfectly in style, as well. No sugar coating, simply effective and making sure you have everything as you want it. The food is amazing risotto with seafood and abadejo filet. The wine Viognier was perfect pair for the meal. We'll definitely be back next time in BA. Thumbs up Tancat. read more

Excellent Spanish tapas restaurant. The food is great, excellent wine list, great deserts, and terrific service. Really can't go wrong.

This is a excellent Spanish restaurant. Food is Tapas oriented. Waiters are very professional and will help non Spanish speakers. We were in the area for 10 days and went back twice with the family. read more

Food is delicious!been here two days in a row and cant get enough of the sea food. Try the basics anf have the waiter recommend a couple options. They will not steer you wrong! read more

Ask for a menu in English, they're available. I was referred here by the locals and it sure didn't disappoint. Excellent small dishes big enough to share and nice wines all at a very reasonable price. Interesting that even though the space is small and the tables are close together, you don't get the noisey and hectic atmosphere that one would expect. I would highly recommend this place. Also make sure to get the tortilla espanola (one order is enough to share) and the natillas for desert. They also carry an excellent red wine , Ruca Malen, a Malbec for Arg $162. A great deal. read more

First off, atmosphere is neat. The warm colors, low ceilings, and interesting decor give the place a lot of character. My food was quick and hot, but only okay. The seafood was overseasoned. The patatas were tasty but greasy. Otherwise, they provide a menu in English and the staff spoke some English as well. read more

Great place for seafood. We had to go there twice during our short stay in BA since the food was really awesome. They offer a fixed menu and a large daily menu with many options around 100 AR$ (approximately 8 to 12 USD in Sept. 2014). I can recommend the baby squid with potatoes. Desserts were nice as well. Mussels and bread were served as starters. The waiters very all very friendly and did speak some english. If you go there before 9pm you should be able to find a table, afterwards you can sit at the bar, which is also ok. Note that they charge you 8 AR$ for service. read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Buenos. Every time I go I make an effort to get here. Place is a wonderful break from all the steak. Wonderful prosciutto, mushrooms, and vegetable plates. Can get really crowded and service can be tough because the place is packed, but it is worth any effort. read more

Our party of 4 decided to start off our 4 night stay with dinner at a this nearby Spanish restaurant. It was a long travel day, so we decided to have an early dinner at 7pm. Big mistake! It was obvious that our waiter was put out with both our early arrival and our lack of reservations. We were seated in the empty restaurant and were served with nary a smile throughout our dinner. We enjoyed two pitchers of delicious sangria and 4 tasty entrees, including the tenderest octopus I've ever had. It was only at the end of our meal, over an hour later, that a different and much friendlier waiter came to our table. I noticed the restaurant was beginning to fill, the wait staff was dressed differently, and our first waiter was gone. We surmised that we had been served by either an outgoing waiter or setup staff. Lesson learned: Don't dine too early! Our service aside, I still give it 4 stars for food and ambiance! read more

Great hole in the wall place. Good wine selection and highly recommend the garlic butter shrimp. The Malbec Angelica Zapata is a good argentine option here. read more

What a great place! We were here twice in four days in Buenos Aires. You'll want to make reservations if you eat later than 8PM. The seafood was fresh and steaks the best we found. Try the Saint Felicen Malbec for a treat. The Crema Catalan (creme brulee) was a great finish. read more

Spanish restaurant, better than in Spain! We've been having lunch in Tancat and I have to say that it was wonderful! We introduced the feast with some tapas and a great Malbec wine. Then, I had a tasty hake fillet, my parents ate a black seafood risotto and fried lobster, both deliciously prepared. My friend ate grilled, filled mushrooms with potatoes and was also very happy with it. For desert we had crema catalana and a pretty good espresso. The best food I had in 5 days in Buenos Aires, definitely worth a stop! read more
