Cons:
"Beef short rib was inedible."
"The waiter didn’t describe the food correctly and had an allergen in it."
"Sausage tasted like it was boiled, and didn’t have any of the qualities of an Argentine sausage."
"The empanadas were not traditional and the papas provinciales were truffle fries not even close."
"Skirt steak was chewy to the point it was almost inedible."
"for an Argentinian restaurant the chimichurri is scarce and the steak was dry/burnt and under salted."

Service
Pros:
"Spent an evening on R40's back patio for a small family celebration. The food was amazing, the staff were so helpful and enthusiastic, and the wine list is excellent."
"For a Thursday night this place was filled with a nice crowd of people! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with a nice big REAL smile. The customer service was GREAT!"
"Our waiter Faham was super knowledgeable of the menu."
"The staff is attentive and very knowledgeable about all food items, as well as restrictions and allergies."
"The service was very attentive, quick, and friendly."
"Our server was very accommodating and recommended us the best drinks and food."
"The staff / management work well together and shows in the service."
Cons:
"They made us wait 15 minutes outside in the cold and never reached back to us."
"Wish they had more non-alcoholic options; they made me a pineapple spritzer but it was bland."
"The service seem very confused: we had to ask for water to be refill everytime; didn't get the orders right and still charge us for thing we did not order."
"Our server was great but as he warned us, the bar was incredibly slow."
"Our drinks didn't arrive until halfway through our first course."
"It did take a while for our order(even drinks) to be taken."
"I did have an issue with the waitress. Maybe it was a bad day for her, but she was not very welcoming, and at times, seemed quite impatient or annoyed with us."
Atmosphere
Pros:
"The overall atmosphere this place had while having dinner with a couple of friends was truly extraordinary!"
"Love the ambience."
"Great size for intimate dinners or large gatherings - especially in the back patio."
"The place is beautiful."
"Classy interior and patio."
"Lovely space with good eats and delicious cocktails."
"The interior design and layout of the place is so industrial chic and well done."
Cons:
"The table was sticky when we sat down, there was no AC and in the peak of NY summer it gets a little hot in there."
"The outdoor area in the back was very hot with only one ceiling fan for the whole area."
"However, the restaurant is so loud that I couldn't talk to my partner, and the waiters couldn't hear us, so we all kept repeating ourselves like in a madhouse."
"So disappointed, we were seated right by the open kitchen.. it was hot as .. and you couldn't feel the AC."
"We went in with a reservation... The waitress looked at us, went past us, warmly greeted the two guests behind us and ushered them in before turning to us."
"They asked us to wait outside 36 degree weather."
"My advice, don’t go to a place that would make a 5yo child wait outside in 30 degree weather."
