This was my first time eating here and I wasn't disappointed. I went with my sister and a friend. I had the Matambre with potato salad and tongue salad. The others had short ribs and skirt steak with salad and sweet plantains. All was fresh and delicious. The flan needs some work and the volume of the music was so loud that we had to ask for it to be lowered and they obliged. The service was good!

This Argentinian steak restaurant is situated in Queens, in a neighborhood so full of different flavors. We had been here years ago and I am glad it is still here. Order a small steak , it is pretty big. Medium cooked is best. The margaritas were enormous and the avocado salad with watercress and shrimp is very interesting. Our friends had the American mixed grill and said everything was cooked to perfection; we had steaks and they were amazing as well. The chimichurri sauce adds a different zing to it. The sides were nothing to write home about ( I would have preferred a baked potato) but hey! We came for the steaks. The atmosphere and the service are nice too, not noisy and the servers are prompt. Park in the hospital parking across the street, have your server stamp your ticket and the parking is free. Very convenient.

Since 1979, El Gauchito is the place where you can find a little piece of Argentine in New York. In a family atmosphere, you may share an Argentinian barbecue or taste authentic dishes from the Argentine cuisine. We offer an extensive menu, delicious dess

We ordered the meat plate for two (the one without sausage, only different cuts of meat). The portions were acceptable, we both left full. The meat was not spiced or minimally, so you need the chimicuri sauce to add some flavor. The bread was soft and the rice my child had was moist. We asked for our meat medium well, but a few were still undercooked. The lulo juice was good as well as the Russian salad (potatoes, peas, carrots).They do need to have had more options for single meals which include a vegetable. You could order cuts of meat, sausage, etc separately and a salad, but everything was individually. My wife and I ended up getting a shared plate of meat for two which included two sides since we each couldn't order a smaller meat portion for ourselves and one side.The service was kind of slow, and when they brought out our dish it was the wrong one, so we had to again wait for a new platter to be cooked.Strollers are not allowed.

We went with a large group (9 people) to say good-bye to family visiting NYC. Of course they were going back to Buenos Aires and to the amazing meat there, but...after a week of American-style food, we decided it was time to get them to this Argentine steak house for some good 'ol Argentine-style meat. Our great surprise was the pizza! It reminded me of the pizza I used to eat in Buenos Aires. Go there just for the pizza, all else is a huge plus. Dessert: Panqueques con dulce de leche: can't go wrong. Meat: skirt steak, the best!
