Tango Nuevo

My husband and I went for an East Coast Rd. trip for our honeymoon and on the way back before heading back to Ontario we decided to make it 2 night stop at Kingston. We saw that tango Nuevo had really good reviews and I honestly love Mexican cuisine! I will tell you this was not what I expected! The menu was tapas but the variety of the food (around the world, not Mexican) is just amazing! Trying so many restaurants this was by far our most favorite! We talk about it to this day! The spices that they use in their dishes is a Pleasant explosion to your taste buds and everything just melts in your mouth. Let’s not forget the alcohol that espresso martini is just delicious! Highly highly recommended if you’re ever in Kingston to book a place there. The staff was even so nice to give us a call the day of to let us know that we were coming in an hour before the last call that we were more than welcome to come in earlier so that we can benefit from the whole experience! Wonderful service, delicious food and the most romantic, rustic and peaceful environment

Nice ambience and flavourful food but it's expensive. Tapas are usually small portion size dishes so you might have to order 2-3 dishes to make a meal and a better option would be to share. The service and server were great. One of the few restaurants where I found the server was honest and really knew about the menu and cocktails. Overall a good place to try not much for vegetarians there though.

I got everything I was hoping for from my Saturday night dinner here. An authentic tapas experience, great service, and a great atmosphere. If you want the recommended 2-3 tapas per person you'll be paying $20-30 for each one. Get only 2 if you want dessert, I was really full after 3. Also be prepared to tip, the staff was outstanding in everyway and seemed genuinely enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We were lucky enough to get David who is definitely a fan of the menu himself and just nailed it with his recommendations for both the food and drink.

Unique and delicious tapas on the downtown main street patio. Went on the weekend for a family birthday because it's a family favourite location. As before, it lived up to our high expectations. Lots of variety and unique choices. Prices are higher than average for tapas, but maybe not surprising given the quality and location. Expect to order 2 dishes per person. Patio seating is covered with clear plastic roofing and also has side curtains. It's a busy location but service was great, being quick and polite. TIP: Make reservations. Parking lots around the area and also on the street a short walk away.

Really enjoyed this spot. They have both indoor and outdoor seating which are modern and nicely designed. Our server was very friendly and sparked up a lot of conversation. She also explained the menu to us and gave us quite a few recommendations. The menu is all shared tapas with a fusion of Arabic and Latin foods. Between 3 people we got 6 tapas and 2 desserts and were full by the end. Our favourite tapas were the lamb and the kibbeh- definitely must tries! We will most likely return here on our next visit to Kingston.

OVERVIEW: Fantastic! It's worth the money, service is great, and many options for various dietary restrictions. I can feel confident about giving Tango Nuevo a five-star as they exceed my expectations by a lot. AMBIANCE: Dimly lit chill vibes, some classy music selections. Would have loved a table, but the bar area is nice as well. SERVICE: Quick and respectful. The bartender talked to me for a bit about some of their selections and we discussed scotch and Mézcal. SELECTION: There's a great food selection. I'm used to only eating 1 or 2 things on a menu due to restrictions, but they provide vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options with a well-marked menu. I always appreciate this from restaurants! For drinks they do lots of cocktail / mix drinks. I tried my fiancee's drink and it was fantastic. If you're looking for a wide array of spirits, they don't have too much here, however what they do have is top-notch. They had some hard to find Lagavulin and Profesor Mézcal when I went. TASTE: Wonderful, we loved everything we ordered and even ordered more. I'm not a food critic, but the taste of the dishes are worth going back for, and worth making a reservation here.

Delicious tapas and excellent service. The lavender lemonade was very floral and refreshing. My favorite dish was the avocado tartare which had a nice fresh zing from the lime & jalapeño vinaigrette. It paired well with the salty Queso Y Chorizo, and the spiciness of the Tuna Poke Nachos (slight heat from the Sambal aioli). The wonton crisps that came with the Tuna and the Avocado tapas were perfectly crisp and were a great vehicle for toppings. Thanks to the team for making our visit a very enjoyable experience!
