Home of Tango & Argentinian Flavours
Situated in Dubai’s financial district, La Casa Del Tango is much more than a restaurant that serves Argentinian cuisine. It is the ‘home of tango,’ as the name suggests, which hosts performances and lessons. The concept celebrates the vision of the famous dancer Enrique Macana.
The Cultural Roots of Enrique Macana
Enrique Macana is from Buenos Aires, Argentina. His father was a chef and his mother, a piano teacher who introduced him to the diverse world of culture.

He discovered the magic of tango at thirteen when, on his way back from a football game, he was drawn to a nearby tango house by its music.
Tango: Connection and Companionship
“When you dance tango, you hold a person, you carry one another. You are not alone. And what do human beings dread more than being alone…” Macana reflects on his lifelong commitment to tango.

A Global Ambassador of Tango and Argentinian Cuisine
He has travelled to Paris, Milan, Vegas, etc. performing the tango and giving lessons. While in Dubai, he felt compelled to find a place for Argentina in this melting pot of cultures.
Here, he found his true calling as an ambassador of his twin passion – tango and Argentinian cuisine.

Authentic Wood Fire Grilling
At La Casa Del Tango, Enrique treats guests to the Asado style of grilling, the way his father used to. The bespoke ‘domo’ used for slow-cooking with wood fire is the first of its kind in the Middle East.
Besides its authentic cuisine, the unique venue is known for its live dance performances and lessons.
