This is a super fun experience in BA. Make sure you take the mixology course, as this is also nice. It's highly interactive and fun, including empanada making I was terrible,wine drinking, and of course, a massive steak. The people running the show are super fun, teaching everything from Argentinian hand gestures to how to order your steak I'm a juegosa guy. This is the one tour to do in BA if you don't have any other time. Go. It's worth it.

This was a lot of fun! You get to make empanadas, and some of the other food is cooked for you by professionals. Would do again.

Loved it. Super fun. Great food and drinks. I'm not sure I really learned anything but I had a great time.

There were 4 of us that went and we had a great time! Also had a lot of fun with our table mates and two of us won from our group. Charlotte won for making the winning empanada and I won for the correct answer. Had a wonderful time and the staff was great!

Just wow. We feared this would be a touristy deal and it was. We feared we wouldn't come away with a lot of new cooking ideas we didn't. But darn it we had so much fun! This team brought the diners together in such a spirited and spirit-filled environment and we all had a ball. The mixology portion of the night was terrific and we did get some great new cocktail ideas there. And while we didn't learn a lot about cooking at the dining experience, the food was terrific and we had a gas hanging out at two large community tables. I cannot state it clearly enough: EVERYONE who works at the Buenos Aires Dining Experience comes together to ensure their guests have a ball and come away with a broader understanding of Argentinian culture.

Lots of fun doing it, meeting all the ladies and making new friends. I wish they had given us recipes to make the stuff that goes inside of the Empanada's. This is a must stop when in BA.

Entertaining, friendly, warm, and informative evening of mixing local cocktails, tapas, making empanadas, steak dinner with roasted vegetables, and make your own cookie sandwich dessert. Learn about Yerba mate, too.

Lots of fun, tasty food and wine and welcoming, polished hosts. The restaurant audio made the hosts' voices sound strident and unclear so difficult to understand.

I was hoping there was going to be real empanada cooking. Instead, everything was made and we only filled the pastry and closed them. I was disappointed. If you like to drink and eat and are not worried about actually cooking, then this is for you. The food was good and the wine flowed.

Loved this! It was so much fun. The hosts were very engaging, funny, and helpful. We did not choose the mixology class beforehand but it was ending when we arrived and it looked like everyone was having a very good time. You get to make two empanadas and I use quotations because you are simply filling the pastry with meat that they have already prepared. They show you the closing techniques and you do that. Then, you get a nice big steak and they teach you the Argentine way to order it. Last, you'll get to create your own dulce de leche cookie desserts known as alfajores. They will keep filling up your wine as quickly as you can drink it.

This was our first activity in Buenos Aires when we arrived and we are glad for that. It was a nice introduction to the customs and culture that helped us with the rest of our trip. The staff were fantastic guides through the many courses and very entertaining.

Great experience. A lot more fun than I thought it would be.

You are greeted with a nice little cocktail while you wait for others to arrive, while you wait it is a great way to chat with a few other fellow travelers and you get situated at the long communal tables. Be aware, despite wearing a hat and a cooking apron, that this IS NOT A COOKING CLASS, you simply fold and stuff 3 empanadas one of which you eat, the other two are given to you after the meal which I wish we had the opportunity to eat as appetizers. Other than having misguided expectations of this as a cooking class, this dining experience was very educational and we learned a lot from it. I loved learning the different styles of folding, how to drink Mate, meat styles of steaks etc. They don't skimp on the wine and the hosts are great! Great as an intro to Argentinian food.
