Lunch is great, but dinner is an incredible dining experience. Wonderful performances and world-class food.
New Year, in general, was great except for the service.
Front tables were well attended, but tables at the centre or at the back were, if not completely, ignored.
Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to enjoy my favourite drink cause the waitresses were missing in action.
Did request a bread.....never arrived to my table.
Perhaps it will be great to install/add some kind of ventilation.....at times it was just too hot
They have hidden charges so be very careful even if you payed for the cover and the drinks you consume they will charge you an extra fee if you don't buy their food. It ruined the whole experience.

Call in advance to reserve a table and leave a deposit to avoid penalties for no-shows
Be cautious about potential hidden charges even if you have paid for cover and drinks but not their food
For an optimal experience, consider visiting during lunch or dinner shows when the service is highly recommended
Reviews
El Meson del Cantor offers a mix of experiences according to reviewers. While some found the service lacking, especially for tables away from the front, others praised the excellent service during lunch and dinner shows with world-class food. The restaurant features live presentations of Bolivian musicians and carnival ballet performances that accurately depict Bolivian folklore music. Guests enjoyed mid-range priced food items like cheesecake and liquor, along with a variety of wines available at different price points. However, hidden charges were mentioned as a downside by some visitors.

If you want a taste of Bolivian folklore música this is the place for you (diner show ), they have live presentations of Bolivian musicians and a carnaval ballet , wicht I have to admit dance very accurate to the Oruro experience of Bolivia great dances . Food is good midd range prices (60-140 bs), their cheesecake is one of the best from Cochabamba, licor goes around 300 bs the bottle wine from 70bs up , they take credit cards, but you have to call in advance to reserve a table and live a deposit for it and if you reserve 4 places they will charge the full number of covers (no show penalty) . Cover goes from (60 - 100bs)
