Found this cute little, Argentine cafe, with cute decor I tried their Alfajores latte and it was good, not too sweet I also had their beef empanada. It's big and yummy I think it's a nice cafe to relax or just hang out. The lady who made my coffee was also nice and friendly to everyone! Will go back and try their other menu. read more

This is a cute café off the side of a senior living residence (which may have you wondering if you're in the correct place). I got the dulce de leche latte, iced. It was the perfect amount of sweetness. read more

Tango Pastry - Dolce de leche latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vienna, Virginia

$21 for a milanesa sandwich with one slice of milanesa across and when I asked for Mayo I was told it's out. Ordered two beers, only one available. I felt I was really forcing myself to attempt having a good experience. I really enjoyed milanesa sandwiches here in the past and might have left an amazing comment before, but unfortunately I won't be ordering it again for $21. read more

TERRIBLE. Came on a Saturday excited to try a new food spot in the area. It was before noon and they were already "out" of beef empanadas. How are you out Saturday before noon? It certainly wasn't busy enough to sell out. We ordered the chicken and a ricotta cheese pastry. The empanada was still cold inside. The pastry was so dry, one could choke. Avoid at all costs, this was such a disappointment. read more

I had this place bookmarked for a while and finally stopped in. I was surprised to see what a low rating it had when I checked in because at the time that I bookmarked it it was four stars and rated highly. Through some digging I learned that the ownership had recently changed. I wanted to give it a chance anyways because the desserts looked interesting online. There is a sign for retail parking in the garage to the left of Tango but the parking spots are all reserved for Sunrise Senior Center and Sunrise Senior Center Cafe. We ended up parking at the lot next door but realized that Tango IS the Senior Center Cafe. The interior is nicely decorated so I had visions of coming again in the future and bringing my laptop to sit and work. That will not be the case though because the food was just eh and very expensive. They have their menu posted on multiple screens and it was a Goldilocks situation to find the right one: the one on the door rotates too fast, the one by the register is too small and hard to read, so we relied on the menu on the TVs behind the register and they also had laminated menus on the tables. I was excited to try all the different things but everything was very pricey. Empanadas are $5 each, and not generously sized for the price. The beef empanada was pretty good but a little hollow inside. My prosciutto medialuna was good but $10 is a steep price for a croissant sandwich, and not even a Costco sized one! So a regular croissant with some prosciutto and mayonnaise for $10 really felt like a price gauge! It was painful to have left a full $5 coffee behind but my partner said his Americano was undrinkable: "overextracted and tastes like motor oil". The Alfajor cookie was $4!! It was soooo dry and crumbly I coughed out chalk dust. The total for everything was $26 for essentially a croissant, an empanada, a coffee, and a cookie. We will not be returning unfortunately. Come for the vibes but avoid the coffee at all costs. Food is hit or miss. Oh and don't believe all the 5 star ratings on Google because they make you post the review when you purchase even BEFORE you taste anything in order to get 10% off your order! read more

I had a great experience trying this new coffee shop. The service was great. The setting was very cozy and warm. We didn't wait too long for our order. They were very patient with our questions and I really loved their recommendations because the pastries we ordered were delicious! I would definitely come back and try other pastries! read more

A new Argentinian cafe has opened up in the neighborhood!!! We went on their grand opening day and came in around early afternoon and all of their pastries were already sold out. We were able to still get their empanadas though and they were delicious! Super flavorful, packed with your choice of protein (beef, chicken) or veggie (spinach). You can tell that these are handmade with love. I hope that there will be a variety of flavors and maybe a sauce for them in the future? Interior was really aesthetic. Service was super friendly! You can tell that they genuinely care about their customers. I wish we had the opportunity to try other pastry items. With time, hopefully they will be able to provide a wide variety of choices throughout the day. Will definitely have to return to give other food items a try. Come check them out! read more

Do not trust the negative reviews! This is a café made by Argentinians for Argentinians! The pastries are a slice of home and the owner is very friendly. If you're not used to it, go in with an open mind. Get a medialuna (Argentinian croissant) with a nice cup of coffee or tea and that'll get you started--open up to the new flavors and combinations, it'll change your life. I was so impressed that I bought a dozen pastries for my parents and they told me they were fantastic. Then, the day after, we all went together to have breakfast. We need more places like this and I am very excited to return as a generous patron! read more

We were disappointed in Tango Pastry.  The location is convenient although the parking garage can be a little tight.  They have nice outside seating and fun inside seating and the service behind the counter was friendly.  That's the good news.  The bad news is that, seeing the name had the word pastry in it, we went there looking for dessert.  There wasn't much.  The display cases were small and strangely empty for lunch time.  It seems like they are trying to do a little of everything - empanadas, a couple of pastries, coffee, happy hour.  The digital signs out front seemed to cycle through a wide range of options, too quickly to really read through, but, once inside, there wasn't that much from which to choose as the empanada case was also pretty empty.  We decided to try the quince pastry and the dulce de leche pastry.  There was only the media luna and it looked pretty plain.  Once we ordered, there were only two of those, no more dulce de leche pastries and maybe two quince tarts - again - very, very low inventory.  We ate the pastries at home and found them to be pretty dry.  All in all, disappointing.  I don't think we will return even though the staff was nice. read more

It's located in the new Sunrise home - really pretty building, we kinda wanted a tour of the facility. Latte with almond milk was pricey but good. Kids had pastries (yummy crust) and an empanada (nicely stuffed). Indoor and outdoor seating - check them out and support local. read more

Customer service was on the same level as the pastries...amazing!! We got the Factura Vigilante and Empanada Ham & cheese. The factura vigilante was sweet and flaky. The empanada was filled very well, full of flavor, crispy, soft, and came with a chimichurri dip. The ambiance was modern with an Argentinian spin. Would definitely recommend coming here again and again! read more

Beware beverages past their best due dates. My kids were treated to this rancid chocolate milk which was multiple weeks past it's due date. The staff seemed nonchalant about it and didn't bother checking the rest of their beverages. The food looked very promising as did the lattes we ordered. But alas! They were barely average. The best part was the ambiance which was super clean and cozy, hence 2 stars and not 1. Will are go back there? Nope! read more

Really enjoyed a rainy day visit to Tango Pastry. The shop itself is a bit hard to find if you blinked and missed it on the corner of Liberty Lane and Maple Ave W. Your best bet is actually to make the turn onto Liberty and then into the parking garage for the Sunrise Care facility that has designated "Cafe Visitors" parking signs. The entrance is on Maple Ave (no need to enter the Sunrise facility - no tour required to get to the cafe). Tango is brightly lit and you are warmly greeted when you enter, there are several tables and counter seating that faces Maple Ave inside the shop. I enjoyed a mate cocido (which comes with milk - they do offer almond and oat in terms of non moo juice options). Hubby had a coffee and alfajor (the large one, duh) which he enjoyed. The alfajor pastry was a bit crumbly, but he enjoyed it overall. The mate was weak even though it came in a tea pitcher that contained the yerba leaves and they were soaking for a good while. The rest of the pastries did look very legitimate (from my days living in Argentina), and we will definitely be back to try the empanadas. I was impressed from an ADA perspective with the door width on the bathroom, but please do watch out when you go in, the light switch is on the opposite side side of the room and it's dark, so make sure you walk across the room, and press the button on the left before heading towards the toilet otherwise you will be 'in the dark'. Literally. Enjoy the Argentine treats. It was a great taste for me that I hadn't had in quite a while! read more

This is not a reflection of Argentinian cuisine. It's an embarrassment. Low quality, stale and expensive. Anyone not familiar with Argentine pastry will believe this a reflection on the country, which couldn't be further from the truth. read more

Tango Pastry - They look like "Facturas" but are not. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Vienna, Virginia

This place is not what it used to be with the previous owner. Food is stale, empanadas are dry, facturas are smaller and no flavor, old, Pizzas their cheese I don't know what quality is but it's runny and watery, not like a good cheese, not like the Pizzas they used to make. It was so sad because this place had potential, and it went down so badly. The owner keeps receiving bad comments, but I don't think he cares what their customers think of the food. It's also funny that their Instagram page posts are only liked by himself, his other businesses, and I think their promoter, like they don't have legitimate comments from real people. That says a lot about it, no honesty on their page, and he replies back to himself in those comments pretending like it's not himself, like it's other people. The ambiance is the only nice thing, but with no good food, it's not worth it. I've had real authentic Argentinian food, and this is NOT! read more

A totally negative experience at the newly opened Tango Pastry in Vienna, VA. We ordered coffee and smoothies, and they were so bad they went straight into the trash--completely full. The drinks were poorly made and barely drinkable. While the young woman who made them was kind and tried her best, the man who appeared to be the owner--sitting at a table watching everything--was shockingly rude. Instead of showing any concern or hospitality, he gave us dirty looks when we asked for the drinks to be remade. For a new shop opening in such an upscale neighborhood, you'd expect a basic level of customer service and quality. Sadly, this place had neither. Absolutely not recommended. read more

This place is amazing!!! The empanadas are amazing! I have had so called authentic Argentine empanadas from all over the US especially when I lived near Weston Florida, this was legit the BEST out of all of them. 2nd to my Argentinians friend tia visiting from Argentina. Had a fantastic conversation with the owner. Will be back and highly recommend! read more

I was super excited to try this place since I have had authentic Argentinian food and love it, but the food left a lot to be desired. The empanadas were not that great, the Ham and Cheese sandwich was very dry. The place is very cute and seems to have a lot of potential, I will try again soon so hopefully everything will be better. read more

First of all, let me say the place is absolutely adorable, right across from the old Amphora. We visited on a Sunday around noon. There are a few indoor tables, some window seating, and a few outdoor tables. I also liked that the tableware is reusable. It's so nice to see an adorable, different option! This place fits right into the Vienna vibe. The people who work there seem to really want customers to be happy. Unfortunately, we were not a fan of the food. We tried four different sweet and savory items. We did not like any of them. I am not sure if they were made the day before, or maybe made somewhere else and brought in, but we found the crust of the empanada, for example, to be dry and stale. Then again I've never had Argentinian pastries before--is that the norm? So glad Vienna has a new spot and I wish the shop well. I don't think it's for us, so we won't come back. Hope others enjoy it. read more

Way too expensive. Limited options... food mediocre. Ham and cheese on white bread in $8. Coffee was reasonable but not awesome. Service was fantastic and so I ambiance, just maybe call it a coffee shop and it could get 4 stars not a cafe. read more

We arrived, as we later found out, a couple minutes before closing. The female employee saw us coming and just locked the door right in front of our faces. It was funny and awful at the same time. Not a good way to treat customers, especially for a new place! At least open the door and say "sorry we are closing". Says tons about the service! We went to Frame instead, which is a couple of blocks down the road and where we get consistently good service! read more

Delicious empanadas. I highly recommend their empanadas. The spinach empanadas are the best.

I am Argentine , and this place is just disrespect to Argentine food. The alfajores ..... are more American than Argentine. It taste old . All the factures are always stale and Central Americans are the ones making it so it isn't " Argentine chef" like they advertise . This place is also super super expensive for no reason. If ur looking for Argentine food , you can try El patio in rockville ( not the worst not the best but Deff more Argentine than this place) read more

love the food and the staff are super nice. I ate the quince pie, empanadas, and some facturas and they were all epic!

Love their food and good service. Their online ordering is easy to work with. Great selection for Christmas!

Love the pastries and the empanadas! Truly the best in town. I enjoy trying their seasonal coffee drinks as well with the dulce de leche latte being my favorite! read more

I recently met at Tango Pastry with a group of friends (16 people) to enjoy coffee and Argentine pastries. Both the quality of the pastries and coffee, as well as the service were excellent. All of the members of our party agreed they had an enjoyable experience trying something new and appreciated the quaint atmosphere for "coffee and sweets" on a Sunday afternoon. I really appreciate how the owner and his staff accommodated a large group for our informal gathering. Tango Pastry is a very nice addition to Vienna and provides a great diverse addition of Latin cuisine and culture that is otherwise not widely represented in the community. Final thoughts: To those who have never made empanadas and pastries themselves, please be mindful of the hard work, time and energy that goes into preparing such delicious, labor-intensive dishes. For this reason, along with the gracious service, our friend group will certainly be visiting again to enjoy our future Sunday afternoons with coffee and pastries at Tango Pastry. read more

Parking situation is awful. They have a garage but it's only for the sunrise, future sunrise, and tango deliveries not their patrons. Use the street. They have smoothies but do not list flavors. You have to ask. The smoothies are thick and the paper straw they provide is too narrow. Bring your own plastic spoon to make it easier. They have a Brita filter pitcher and cups but don't refill the pitcher. read more

Only one chance to make a first impression. Ordered a large latte and it was definitely not a large by normal standards. Also, top 1 inch was foam. Disappointed. Won't return. read more

This place offers low quality Argentinian food At very high prices. Previous management was far better and cuisine was fresh and genuinely Argentine then. Empanadas taste like bits you buy from commercial frozen packages from Goya or other companies. It is an embarrassment. read more

I tried out this Argentinian cafe and it was a good time. They have been open for less than a year, and it is very nice to see that it is going well. Workers were very kind and patient, and it was a quick wait to get my food. The food was very good, and there are many options to choose from. I found out that other than empanadas and coffees, they also sell various sandwiches, pies, smoothies, juices, and more. It's a very cozy and warm setting, and gives off a very at home/comfy vibe. For being only open for 10 months, its a very nice place that will definitely go somewhere in the future. read more
