We enjoyed everything about this restaurant. It's difficult to find a nicer restaurant that allows dogs, and they have a very cute outside dining area where we could bring ours. Our waitress was very friendly and extremely helpful with the menu and deciding what to order. My chicken parm was delicious, and my husband said his spaghetti and meatballs were excellent. Everything is freshly made in house, including a lovely bakery with tons of delicious desserts!

We were pleasantly surprised. We expected a good experience from the reviews, we did not expect the perfection that we experienced. Hub's had the veal parm, and I had the lasagna. Absolutely delicious! Mark was our server. He was attentive and patient with these first timers. A wonderful experience after a day at Busch Gardens.

Decided to try something for lunch that I haven’t had in years, and so happy that I did! The woman behind the counter was absolutely delightful. I got the Chicken Ala Sal and some desserts, all were delicious and clearly made with care and love. Everything was very reasonably priced and portion sizes were generous.

Can’t get enough of this place! The food is authentic, delicious, and the portions are extremely generous! They have a variety of wines & beers to choose from. Our table of four had a short 15 min wait before being seated. So we were totally drooling over their dessert/bakery cases. We ordered their lasagna, bruschetta, chicken & eggplant parmigiana, chicken marsala, & the Greek salad with grilled chicken. Each meal comes with a soup or salad and fresh garlic rolls with their homemade sauce for dipping. Just outstanding! We’ll definitely be back!

My friend and I go out once a month. She suggested Argento’s as she’s eaten there a few times. I had never been. I’m glad I went! We entered and were seated right away. Our waiter arrived right away, took our drink orders and began joking with us. He was very funny and told us he was from Portugal. While we waited for our food, I looked around. Argento’s had been open about 30 minutes. There were a few people at tables, but, people were always coming in for takeout or pickup orders. Our food arrived and I was very surprised with the amount of food! Our waiter kept our glasses full, checked on us often too. He’d go by us, telling us another joke, which made us laugh. Very personable guy. The food was so delicious, I ate it all! Then I had a slice of excellent lemon pound cake cheese cake. One of the best, freshest pastries I’ve had in a long time. I definitely recommend Argento’s Italian Bistro for authentic Italian food.

Argentos is our family's go-to restaurant for special occasions. We always opt for the round table and separate room, but they tend to be booked, so we should reserve them earlier than anticipated. The service is consistently friendly, and the generous portions ensure we never finish dinner, often resulting in take-out boxes. I particularly enjoy their Caesar dressing, which is exceptionally tasty, and the red sauce is also delicious. It's clear they prioritize maintaining high standards for both food quality and service. The white sangria much much better than the red .

This is our go to for everything! Never had a bad meal or bad service. You’re always greeted with a smile and felt welcomed. My man is very picky but this place is on point to him, and his family is from Italy so he knows good Italian food! The pastries and desserts are mouth watering. The owner Sal is one of the nicest people you could ever have the pleasure to meet. Oh and our most favorite server is Davide, we adore him!!!!
