"Tango Sur is offering its full menu for takeout and delivery." - adrian kane
"Tango Sur is an Argentinian steakhouse in Lakeview that’s different from all the other spots on this list, because it’s much more affordable, casual, and upbeat (not to mention BYOB). This is a place you come with your friends and your own wine, and plan on staying for as long as possible. The steaks are fantastic, but the environment is even better—it’s dimly lit and full of enough candles that you might start thinking it’s a grill-your-own-meat operation (it’s not)." - adrian kane, john ringor, nick allen
"If you’re looking for steakhouse-quality food without the steakhouse-quality prices, Tango Sur is it. The Argentinian steakhouse cooks great steaks in a dark BYOB space. The fact that you can get quality meat and BYOB for less than $50 is a steal." - sam faye, adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
"Tango Sur in Lakeview isn’t just one of the best steakhouses in Chicago, it’s the only one where you don’t need to spend a lot of money. The steaks here are under $40, plus it’s BYOB. And Bodega Sur (their sister restaurant right next door) has a wine shop. That way you can impress your date with your knowledge of Argentine malbecs. But first, you should probably Google Argentine malbecs." - josh barnett, adrian kane
"Tango Sur is a place you come with multiple bottles of wine and shout-talking friends you haven’t seen in forever. This loud, crowded Argentinian spot is BYOB, and every evening we’ve spent here has been a great time. Tango’s brusque servers will ply you with flaky empanadas, provoleta, and juicy cuts of meat that are surprisingly affordable. The food is fantastic, but the environment is even better—it’s dark as hell, with so many candles that you’ll start looking around for fire extinguishers. So in the unlikely event someone can overhear your college roommate talking about losing her DivaCup, no one will even be able to see who said it." - adrian kane
