Always a favorite when in Orlando! Made a reservation a week prior through OpenTable. We arrived at 530pm on a Friday and were able to take advantage of the Happy Hour, which was a phenomenal deal. There were 3 of us. We split 2 of the set appetizer menu. Came with 9 items in each set. The black bean hummus was delicious! I ordered a starry night cocktail, which was also good! read more

As locals, we typically do not visit restaurants in the I-Drive area, however we visited Cafe Tu Tu Tango on a whim as we were able to secure a reservation on a busy holiday weekend (Memorial Day). Vibes were fun and quirky, interior aesthetic to me was as if Chuy's and House of Blues had a baby- artsy & eclectic. Our server was very nice and had good recommendations. We enjoy tapas style restaurants as an opportunity to try a variety of small plates to get a feel of what the restaurant offers. We ordered the street corn, sesame steak skewers, and garlic maple chicken wings. The corn and steak skewers (so tender) were delicious, however the wings fell a bit short. They weren't bad, but there wasn't any essence of garlic or maple; more like heavy ginger and citrus. Cafe Tu Tu Tango is an enjoyable option for tourists who want something perceivably "different" than what they'd experience at home or in the surrounding area. We may consider trying their brunch in the future with a side of fortune reading :) read more

Overall, I really enjoyed our meal here. Just a heads up this place is loud so this is not the restaurant you want to have an intimate conversation. However, it is quite fun, when we got there on a Saturday night, they were having a Taylor Swift look alike performance. I absolutely loved it. It turned out it was happening every hour so we were able to watch her perform twice. They also had someone selling jewelry and an artist painting, overall it is such a fun vibe. If you want a standard table, you need to make a reservation, I made a reservation like 15 minutes before and they only had outdoor seating and high tops available. We chose a high top and it was fine. They do have a kids menu so my son was able to order a cheese pizza with a side of fries and the other one ordered a chicken quesadilla with a side of fruit. On the kids menu it says cheese quesadilla but he really wanted chicken, I was surprised the chicken was a bit spicy. He ate a couple bites and then asked for his own cheese pizza after seeing his brothers. All the plates are meant to be shared so they come out whenever they're ready. My older son's cheese pizza came out immediately and then my younger son's chicken quesadilla came out after all our food had been delivered. I think this is what made him want a cheese pizza because he didn't have his own meal for majority of the time we were eating. When we finally ordered his cheese pizza it then took a long time to come out. I'm guessing it's because it's woodfired and his pizza was behind a ton of other pizzas whereas with my older son we must've ordered at a good time. My absolute favorite dish was the marinated cucumbers. It was a light and delicious. It reminds me of what I find at a Japanese restaurant. I also got the butter chicken, it was OK. I didn't find the chicken super tender so I would skip it next time. We also got the maple glazed chicken wings. I found the breading to be overly salty. I ended up taking off all of the breading and my younger son ate a ton of the chicken. I would skip it next time. We got the steak skewers, which were pretty delicious. Again didn't love it so probably would get something else next time. My husband did not like his ribs so he definitely should skip that next time. So overall, the food was OK, but my kids absolutely destroyed their pizza and I love the atmosphere, which is why I'm giving this place four stars. I see that it has great potential. If parking is a problem, I recommend parking at icon park and walking because it's about five minutes away. Our server was super nice, she was a bit slow, but she also had a giant table next to us, which could've contributed to that. I would definitely come back. I enjoyed our experience here. read more

Though I was contacted by someone at this restaurant to get in touch to resolve this matter, and after many calls and emails, no one has responded. We have moved on from this issue. Just remember if you're asked to give a head count for a large party to under estimate as they will charge you for the no shows even if it was due to illness or an emergency. read more

Wow!! I love this place every time I go...it seams like I try something different every time. They now offer great THC cocktails and pair very well with the tapas. I got a drink that came with a work of art, and was able to take the beautiful painting home. Inside and out is a display of cool artwork or just the chairs and lighting is fun. Get a reservation and go!!!! read more

I was a frequent visitor of the Atlanta, Ga. location and this location is totally different than that location. This location is more casual and eclectic. We went during brunch on a Saturday and the menu is very limited if you're not interested in the brunch. But I must say the customer service was very good. Our server "Heidi" was really good and patient with us. I had the sausage pizza minus the hot cherry red peppers and it was a good single size serving. My wife had the shrimp and grits which was more like an appetizer size. She said it was good because everything was fresh. My sister had a plain Belgium waffle and she said it was sufficient. I only gave them a 3 star based on the limited menu, I reserved the patio section and once we arrived I was informed that it was reserved for a private party. And the portion size should all have been listed on the appetizer side of the menu. read more

It has been several years since I have been to café tu tu tango and it was nice to be back this time for brunch. For $62 and some change you get unlimited items on the menu as well as endless mimosas. Like many brunch locations in Orlando they do have a two hour maximum at the table for brunch and the whole table has to do bottomless brunch. We tried a little bit of everything, but some of my favorites were the chorizo, chicken slider, the dynamite shrimp, the chilled udon noodles, and the breakfast tacos. There is a taco bar where you can get regular Carne Asada, chicken Tinga, and El Pastor tacos and they were OK but it's mass serving so a couple was good enough for me. Our server was excellent. She took really good care of us and always made sure that our mimosas were full. read more

Cafe Tu Tu Tango - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I went to Café Tu Tu Tango and it's easily one of my favorite happy hour spots in Orlando. Happy hour runs Sunday through Friday from 3-6 PM, with most drinks around $5 and cocktails at $8. They also offer a great selection of small plates for about $4 each. But my go-to is the "Get it All" for $19 deal. It's such a steal, especially if you're with someone, since a few dishes are perfect for sharing. The atmosphere is beautiful, filled with artwork from local artists, which makes the whole experience feel creative and unique. The music always sets the vibe. It's lively, but still low enough to actually have a conversation. You can sit at the bar, lounge inside, or enjoy the outdoor patio, so there's a spot for whatever mood you're in. The food is consistently amazing, and you really get great value for what you spend. It honestly feels like a full dinner for a fraction of the price. Service has always been attentive, and I've had a great experience every time I visit. Definitely a go-to spot if you're looking for good food, good energy, and a great deal. read more

You know one of those places you can go to again and again and still not try everything you wanted to or see and experience all the crazy things going on? Well this is one of those as it really does have something for everyone! Coming here has been a long time coming as we've always said that this is one of those places we are gonna go to when we can't decide what we wanna eat because here you get to try a few different things to make what's totally good! First we went with the Brussels sprouts they were cooked perfectly with a bit of a sweet and a bit of a chili vibe to set us up for what came next! Those delicious jerk chicken skewers were yummy the chicken was tender and full of flavor and just hit the sauce spot totally! The chicken tikka was definitely some of the best I've had in a while as it has soo much flavor that you couldn't contain it all in one bite especially with those pickled onions on top! The Cajun chicken pizza was flat and flavorful with bits of chicken all through it as well as soo much flavor it was definitely cool to take a some of that to break up the other goodies we had at the same time! My drink was literally as If I was drinking a sweet blueberry it was soo good and just delicious like that really was one of the best cocktails I've had in a while! Our service was amazing as they kept checking on us as you order things as you go at least we do so much love to the staff because that's gotta be a lotta work going back the table soo many times! Now throw all that in with live belly dancing and love artists yeah that just set the vibe for what's totally good as who doesn't like artistic activities going on around you! My only downside to coming here is their parking but I'm not gonna knock them for it as it seems like it's kinda forced upon them with their neighbors doing it but I might be one of the few to say this but I hate valet parking I'd rather do it myself and that's just what I did as parked in another parking lot and just walked over problem solved! Overall I'm sure we will be back here again at some point because how can you not next time though it's gotta be a group with a bunch of friends because then that will just be a party! read more

This place gets pretty busy so I definitely recommend making a reservation or looking for a seat at the bar! There's plenty of parking though most of them are reserved for valet. The place is very colorful and has plenty of different things to do besides dining in. There's tarot reading, music and plenty of art to enjoy or purchase. We tried the bread pudding and it was so delicious and I loved my espresso martini! read more

Great all you can eat brunch. $35 and you can order anything on the menu and it includes a taco bar!! Service was a bit slow but it is all you can eat and the place was packed. They had entertainment. A lady painting live, a man playing the violin and a fortune teller. Overall pretty cool vibe, will definitely be back for bottomless mimosas!! read more

Still 5 stars for me (and any out-of-town guests I bring here)! My friends from Indianapolis were driving through Orlando and wanted to meet for lunch. Their daughter was in town last summer, I took her here and she told her parents about it. They asked if they could experience it, too. I made a reservation and we were seated immediately in the bar area as it was not crowded for lunch on this day. We ordered the following items: Mandarin Orange Salad (my friend loved the spicy peanuts in the mix). Cuban Sliders (my selection; always a good choice). Butter Chicken Tikka Masala (my selection; good, but the item consisted of chicken thighs rather than white meat-my mistake for not looking closer at the menu). Bananas Foster Waffles (the mom absolutely loved this item and said her daughter highly recommended these waffles). Milk Chocolate Waffles (the dad said they were perfect!) I was given a 20 percent off card during my last visit. This "Love Loyalty" card is a way to reward locals for regularly visiting Cafe Tu Tu Tango (and Mia's Italian Kitchen!) on International Drive. Another reason I keep coming back and bringing guests. Everyone raves about the food, the art on the walls and the overall great ambiance. read more

I went here during a friend's birthday brunch and I'm very glad we went there! I have always rode past it while in Orlando, but I always said I will give it a chance and I'm glad we went. The food was really good during their brunch during the weekend. They have a $35 all you can eat menu and it has a ALOT of options to choose from and for an extra $25 you can add on endless mimosas with different flavors. My favorite flavor was the jalapeño pineapple. I definitely recommend coming here. The waiter and the servers were amazing! The atmosphere was nice and very creatively decorated and the food was also great too and not expensive. read more

Hi fam, I wish I could do a 3.5. I'd say it was in the middle because I didn't love it but I didn't necessarily hate it either. Server Jose - wonderful. Super nice guy who was really attentive. He handled the table next to us who was questioning literally everything and he kept it super chill even though I know it was probably super annoying. The best thing we had was the pizza! The steak skewers left a salt burn that still tingles. The naan bread was a-1 tho! 5 items w drinks equaled about 60$ !!!! read more

Such a unique dining experience! The restaurant itself is bizarre in the best way. Local artwork adorns the walls bringing a vibrant color to the space. The atmosphere is quirky, loud, and fun! Last night (Saturday night) they had a tarot card reader set up, as well as belly dancers for live entertainment. A lot going on! Service was great. Food and drinks were really good; but it is all about what you order! I recommend reading reviews beforehand like we did to identify the popular + skippable items. We ordered a few small plates to share: - Dynamite shrimp was fantastic! Flavors were on point and I loved the crunchy slaw it came with as well. 4 pieces of shrimp to an order so get two if you're hungry! - Black bean hummus - excellent taste! Loved this but wish they'd served more of the soft delicious pita bread that comes with it for dipping. - Elote - good but very cheesy. - Sesame Steak Skewers - meat was cooked to perfection. Enjoyed this one! - Guava bread pudding for dessert. This was alright. A little dry. Sangria was a miss but the Jimmy margarita was great. Nice non-chain restaurant option to try when in Orlando! read more

The food is fantastic. Had the Starry Night drink, it was delicious. Ordered the white sangria, French kiss, Choclate Clementine Espresso Martini as well and they were tasty. Lots of plates ordered! Street Corn, crispy Brussels sprouts, chilled chili udon noodles, Cuban sliders, dynamite shrimp, garlic maple chicken wings, smoked Thai spare ribs, jerk chicken skewers, sesame steak skewers, spiced alligator bites, and the warm guava bread pudding. It was all fantastic. No complaints. All positives! Thank you to our server, Rosa. She was kind and on point with our orders. read more

Cafe Tu Tu Tango - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Lively tapas spot with a good vibe and chill atmosphere. Made reservations to be safe and we were seated quickly. Ordered the mandarin orange salad and shrimp as starters, both were very good. The salad was different than anything I've had , crispy, a lil spice and cabbage all went well together with dressing. The shrimp was 4 total , crispy and flavorful. Our main tapas were the Baja tacos which my husband loved , I didn't even get a bite lol. My favorite was the steak skewers, tender and juicy so good. We also had the chicken egg rolls which were crispy with a lil spice . I had the starry night drink which was delicious, loved the flavors it went down very smoothly . Would definitely come back next trip to Orlando . read more

I used OpenTable to book our reservation but we were hungry and couldn't wait so I called in and used their automated system and was fortunate to get a reservation much earlier!! I didn't know what to expect. Wife got this suggestion from a coworker so we said let's go!!! Was warmly greeted by the hostess who got us seated. We actually had two waiters who helped take our orders. The sangria was on the stronger side as a heads up. When you order the food it just came all at once. We ordered a pepperoni pizza, the udon noodles, eggroll, the steak skewers which the kids loved, corn on the cobs, croquettes, and my favorite was the dynamite shrimp. Lastly - I did get a special drink they were serving that night which included a free painting from one of the local artists. I enjoyed our food and service. The place was very lively!!! We even had a belly dancer perform in front of us which was a treat as well as buy some jewelry that was made by a local artists. I enjoyed this place and would recommend this place for more a hip place to hang out!! read more

Café Tu Tu Tango is such a dope spot!! I've dined here several times, and every visit has been a great experience. The first thing that always catches my eye is the vibrant atmosphere -- bold colors and an eclectic mix of paintings, sculptures, and mixed-media art cover nearly every inch of the space. What makes it even cooler is that local artists often paint live while you dine, turning the restaurant into a constantly evolving art gallery. The service has consistently been on point. The staff is super friendly and genuinely focused on great customer service. My most recent visit was on New Year's Eve, and it was packed, so we ended up dining outside. Thankfully, the patio heaters were on, so my party and I stayed warm and comfortable despite the crowd. As for the food, it's always been very good. They offer a wide variety of unique tapas, perfect for sharing. I ordered a few dishes for the table, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed everything we tried. If you're into tapas-style dining, great cocktails, and an artsy, energetic atmosphere, I highly recommend checking out Café Tu Tu Tango!! read more

This is my 2nd time and I'm now obsessed. My first time was during covid and both times I had the time of my life. Came for brunch for my weekly date outing with my gentlemen caller and had bottomless brunch. Unlimited food from the menu for $35 with unlimited mimosas for $25 extra? YES PLEASE! Good food, amazing art (available for purchase) and good music is the perfect combination. My favorite dishes overall was the dynamite shrimp, bananas foster waffles, and breakfast tacos. My favorite flavor mimosas were the mango punch and passion fruit passion (I think? I'm tipsy) flavors. You get to choose two flavors and the waiter brings the champagne and fill your flute to the brim cuz they understand. The. Assignment. (I wish I could remember my waitress's name cuz she was handling 3 tables like a pro). My honey loved the shrimp and grits dish so much he ordered it twice and he had the Cajun chicken pizza (tried that and it was bussin') as well as the churro waffles. I left with a full belly and happy face. The only dish I didn't like was the Tempura Corn Pancakes. No dice. I was too full to finish my banana foster waffles but I would have demolished them with a bigger stomach. They have a taco station that you do have to get up to make your tacos yourself but I was way too lazy to do all that. Parking was complimentary valet and also hella convenient as well. 10/10 experience. read more

I'll be honest, I forget about this place because I'm not normally in the area but every time I go, I say "why don't I come here often??" Though this is in the heart of tourist area, this restaurant is fun and unique. I love that it celebrates art and if you wanted to, you can walk around and view it on the walls. This place is moody and dark and is mainly a small plates/tapas establishment. Everything is shareable for sure. We had a slightly larger party as we were celebrating a birthday, but the service was decent. Food: I loved the street corn and the brussels sprouts the best. Everything comes out as it is ready which I love, because sometimes you're just too hungry to wait for everyone's food to be ready! I wouldn't mind checking out brunch time or when there is entertainment (we missed it because it was a later reservation). read more

(and that's being generous for the vibes) Cafe Tu Tu Tango was... ehhh. Let's start with the good because there is some. The atmosphere is GREAT, super eclectic, artsy, fun to look at, definitely a cool place to hang out. And the Dynamite Shrimp was actually dynamite , easily the best thing we had. The Cuban sliders were also outstanding, juicy, flavorful, and worth ordering. Now for the not so great... The croquettes were bland and too mushy (there was no tooth feel to it), the Cajun egg rolls were blah...and I would NOT use the word 'Cajun' to describe them, and the Tex-Mex pizza was a huge disappointment. Like... so disappointing we left over half of those plates untouched. For the price and all the hype, I expected way more "wow" and way less "meh." Overall, you're paying for the atmosphere more than the food. Some hits, but way too many misses to justify the cost. Would I come back for drinks and a couple of appetizers? Maybe. Would I come hungry expecting an amazing meal? Probably not. read more

Loved our server Nicole today. She was so sweet and fun. Me and my friend got some happy hour food and had a great time catching up. I liked the size of the plates. Didn't realise when I was ordering I was paying $4 for 5 different plates and should've just purchased the "try all for $19", assuming they don't get any smaller with that option. We sipped on the white sangrias and I enjoyed those a lot! I also included the happy hour menu, you can purchase all of these in a regular size too. I've been before and gotten one of the pizzas which I really enjoyed. read more

4/5 Stars Cafe TuTu - International Drive, Orlando Went on a Saturday afternoon around 1pm for a brunch invite where they offered to pay... so obviously I said yes The spot is located right on International Drive and offers valet parking, which is always a plus. It's set up as tapas-style dining, but heads up -- even though they call them "small plates," most are more like mini portions. The chicken chorizo slider especially felt tiny for the price point if you weren't doing the unlimited brunch. That said, for a little over $30 you get unlimited food and mimosas during brunch, which makes it a solid choice for a girls' brunch vibe. The dishes were generally very flavorful, with many of them bringing some nice heat (spicy lovers will be happy). The selection isn't huge, but the value is definitely there if you plan to graze. Food quality was pretty basic overall. Some of the "craftier" dishes like the grits and shrimp or breakfast tacos came out a bit lackluster. The taco bar was decent -- nothing mind-blowing, but worth hitting. My absolute star dish was the Brussels sprouts in chili sauce -- those were fire and I'd go back just for them. The space is nice and open, but it gets pretty loud in there. You'll probably have to lean in to hear your tablemates. Overall, it's not a bad spot, especially for the unlimited brunch deal. But the food feels a little like those fancy mass-prepared bites you find at Disney's Food & Wine Festival -- cute presentation, decent flavor, but not super fresh or elevated. With a little more love and care in the kitchen, it could easily be a 4.5+. Would I go back? Probably for another paid brunch invite read more

I first tried some items from this restaurant at the flora and fables event and it was delicious. I was super excited to visit the restaurant. It has such a lively and funky bohemian atmosphere with brightly painted walls and beautiful artwork everywhere. There were even two artists creating pieces in the restaurant as well as belly dancing which was super cool! It's a tapas style restaurant which is perfect for groups so everyone can share something delicious. Our server was super attentive and had great recommendations, always so helpful guiding us through the menu and answering all our questions. There are so many different dishes on the menu, every one can find something unique and mouthwatering! I got several items and everything was amazing. I highly suggest the crispy brussels sprouts and the butter chicken tikka masala. The jerk chicken skewers and Cajun chicken pizza were also super good. I can't wait to go again, there are so many different options to try you can always find something new. read more

We wanted to try one of the most Yelp Reviewed dining place in Orlando next to where our villa was and Cafe Tu Tu Tango appeared... From the moment you walk in, it's like you're walking into a work of art. There's artwork on the walls and through out the entire restaurant. The artwork is also for sale! CAJUN EGGROLLS: 10/10 It looked normal but, the taste blew me out of the water. I did not expect an eggroll to have so much burst of flavors. It was wild... STREET CORN: 9/10 It looked smaller in person and bigger in pictures! The corn was sweet and had a really nice texture. Small but, filling... STEAK SKEWERS: 9/10 You get a nice char from the grill and the steak was marinated with nice flavors. Steak was just a little chewy but, I enjoyed it overall... THAI SPARE RIBS: 8/10 Nice flavors. Again just a little chewy for me. Maybe I just need teeth that are like sharks!?!? SERVICE: 10/10 Dulce was so sweet! She was amazing and took care of us from beginning to end. She kept us updated on when the food is coming. She also said we ordered most of her favorites. She's so professional and we just love her! Thank you to all the hardworking staff...

Came in on Christmas dinner. Looked at the website and Christmas special had prime rib and others. When we got there they said it was only for brunch. Told them they need to state that on the website. That's the reason why we came here. Server was just ok, didn't go into stuff like we heard from other servers around us. So I wound up getting the jerk chicken skewers, steak skewers and street corn pizza, server said it better the the appetizer. The chicken skewer was good and enjoyed the steak one that I ordered another to go. The pizza was terrible, way too much salt had my son stray it and said the same, he couldn't eat it. They got Brussels sprouts which was good and can't remember what else they got. The kids got a cheese pizza and chicken tenders, both were ok. Both pizzas crust was very thin and I mean thin. The server brought us the check and never asked if anyone wanted desert. With 3 kids big mistake, so we went somewhere else for desert. Highly disappointed with the trip and will only come for brunch, dinner is not worth it. read more

One of the best bottomless brunches in town! I celebrated my birthday here with my family one evening and we were enamored with all of the dishes. Luckily they are tapas serving portions so there are plenty to choose from and none disappoint! My dad and I loved sharing so many dishes. It is super vibey here with local artwork displayed throughout the restaurant, dancers dancing in the halls in the night, and tarot readers tucked in the corner. I became one of the newest readers, working the brunch shift Friday 12-5. Make sure you check this place out! read more

First - the good parts! The food here is AMAZING! The server was very personable & friendly! The decor & vibe was immaculate! They had a live artist! Looks great for groups & we were seated immediately! Valet was quick & friendly. Really great menu. We got the cucumbers, sausage/pepper pizza, chilled noodles, and breakfast tacos. That was plenty for the 3 of us and we took home the majority of the waffle. Prices are GREAT! Now - the difficult parts - EXTREMELY loud. Took an hour to get our last dish (with prompting) & all the food came out at weird times over the course of that hour. I think that I should have thought thru going here on a Saturday during spring break though. Anything on I-Drive needs to be thought thru lol. We had to sit at a tall table with my elderly Father in Law, luckily there was one side that was a booth so we put him there and it worked out. I had to flag down bussers whenever we needed the server because he never came to check on us otherwise. It is REALLY busy. The crust and n the pizza was torched & too thin - like a tortilla. The tacos had sat so long that the tortillas were stiff like a tostada. But I love tostadas so I was cool with it. Automatic 1-star deduction for having a freezing cold bathroom. I immediately do this anywhere because it's a long standing pet peeve! The server comped our drinks - I think he felt bad about making us wait so long. So we bumped up the tip to 30% in thanks. Overall I am totally loving this place & want to bring friends, but make a reservation & expect slow service. The food is very fresh & AMAZING flavor, so to me it was worth it. read more

I love their weekend brunch both here as at their sister restaurant next door Mia's. This was my first time for lunch and the prices are regular and portions pretty much the same.

This place doens't have thousands of reviews for nothing. It's an icon of Orlando, and it's worth a visit. I make it a point to try to get here every time I'm in Orlando. Not only is it a unique vibe and atmosphere with literal art on the wall, and a resident artist working on any given day or evening, but the food is spectacular and the drinks are inspired. Be sure to have a walk around to check out the available art. You may end up taking something home in addition to your happy belly. There are plenty of vegetarian options, as well, and everything tastes just as good as (if not better than) it looks. I'm a fan of dessert first, and I'm glad I went with the Warm Guava Bread Pudding. It was soooo good that I had a hard time not eating it all straight away. (I wanted to save a few bites for after the meal as well.) The biggest challenge here is parking. You have to get there early, or just have patience. read more

We were given this place as a suggestion when we were visiting Orlando during Thanksgiving. What visuals! First, the place is FULL of artwork that you can purchase while you wait for dinner. A lot of it is really amazing. They had an artist there making art in real time and you could speak to them about their craft. We were only going for tapas as we were restaurant hopping and just having a snack at each place. We were a bit disappointed in the portions of each for the price. The chicken skewers were REALLY small for like $14, same with the steak. The wings were decently sized but also really pricey. Again, for us, this was International Drive. Inflationary and expensive. Probably skip this place next time in Orlando, even though we loved the art. read more

Cafe Tu Tu Tango - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This was an EXPERIENCE, all the way around. If you want a super unique, fun and stimulating food experience, well here you have it. Cafe Tu Tu Tango is primarily somewhere to have shared plates. You can order individual entrees or menu items, or you can pay a flat rate to "all you can eat"- meaning you can order anything on the menu or visit their taco bar. This is definitely the way to go in my opinion. But come hungry. They have a really diverse menu. Like I said, there is a taco bar you can walk over to. But they also have a lot of latin inspired food, some more traditional American stuff, and even Greek- and Indian-style dishes. We were absolutely obsessed with the guava bread pudding. It was warm, soft, creamy with hints of guava and beyond delicious. We liked most of the stuff we tried- one of the flatbreads was probably the only thing I wouldn't get again. It did not have much flavor, but everything else was amazing. Let me also warn, it is super loud here. Like I said, it's an experience beyond just the good. Cafe Tu Tu Tango is also an art gallery- every wall is covered in art from local artists, and there's usually one or 2 artists sitting there working on new things as well. They have dancers that perform around the restaurant at different times and they crank the music literally all the way up when it's going. But even during all other times the music is quite loud. It's hard to have a lot of normal conversation with all the commotion. But all that to say it is so fun and entirely unique from other dining spots, and they do have outdoor seating too which could help get away from the noise a tiny bit (but still not completely). read more

Another splendid evening at Cafe Tu Tu Tango. It's my favorite place to meet out of town friends and family who are staying in the tourist corridor. We were a group of nine including rowdy adults and two children under 6. Our server Jacob was unflappable and amazing. We tried so many dishes, the street corn is a favorite I always have to have, along with the fish tacos but first time trying the Brussel sprouts and the sesame steak skewers. Soooooo scrumptious! Everything was delicious and we were even treated to a couple beautifully executing the tango. read more

We visited Café Tu Tu Tango for their Unlimited Brunch on a Sunday. It was very busy, and I highly recommend making a reservation. We had one, thankfully, but we heard that people without one were waiting over an hour to be seated. The restaurant is decorated with all kinds of colorful, eclectic art, which made for a fun and interesting atmosphere. It gave us plenty to look at and talk about while we waited for our food. Our server was kind, but didn't check in with us often--we had to wave her down a few times for drinks. The brunch is tapas-style, so small plates come out as they're ready. Everyone at the table has to order the unlimited option, which was about $34 per person. Overall, it was worth it. After ordering a few items, we visited the taco bar, which was a highlight for all of us. It had chicken, pork, beef, and a vegan option, and you add your own toppings. It was easily one of the best parts of the meal. While heading back from the taco bar, we saw some live dancing, which added a fun and festive vibe. Unfortunately, our table didn't have a good view, but the entertainment was a nice bonus. My favorite dishes were the Mediterranean spinach dip and the guava bread pudding. The sweet potato dish was probably my least favorite--it had an odd flavor I wasn't expecting. One suggestion I have is for the menu to note how many portions come with each item. Some dishes, like the Cuban sliders, only came with two small pieces, while others, like the Brussels sprouts, were larger and better for sharing. This was our second time visiting, and overall we really enjoyed it again. It's a fun spot with a lively atmosphere and a creative menu, especially for brunch. read more
