Excellent food but service really interfered with a good dining experience. It seemed like they were short staffed, the one waitress , who did her best, seemed to be working the whole dining room. We had to ask to have our plates removed after dinner and restaurant had emptied out. But the good food and drink was enjoyable.

R40 in Long Island City, is a full bodied flavor packed experience bridging together elegantly the Italian influences on Argentina, with the native hospitality of Argentina and a homely feeling with each bite. My group of 3 was warmly greeted and catered to by an excellent and informative staff who’s dedication to welcoming us accentuated our time there.

Excellent service, good, price , selection. I do however wish they had better and more value on by the glass wine. However cocktails do make up for it. Meat can be a bit less salted, however the quality of food is excellent caliber. Can’t wait to visit once again.
