I recently had the pleasure of dining at Argo on Parade, an experience that I can only describe as exemplary, delightful, and entirely satisfying, especially for those on a ketogenic diet. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance of the café was both warm and inviting. The staff exuded a level of friendliness that set the tone for what was to be a spectacular morning.
What makes Argo stand out in the vast café landscape is their stunning menu catering to the keto lifestyle, a feature that's not so common even today. The breakfast I was served was nothing short of a masterpiece. It was not just a meal, it was a testament to their commitment to health and flavour fusion that sets them apart from their contemporaries. The meticulous presentation and careful attention to detail were evident in every bite.
The staff at Argo on Parade were the epitome of pleasantness. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and showed genuine interest in ensuring my dining experience was nothing short of excellent. Their service was just another reason why I was so thrilled with my visit.
Indeed, Argo on Parade does come with a slightly higher price tag than most cafés, but let me assure you, every cent is absolutely worth it. The quality of the food, the exceptional service, and the overall ambience of the café combine to offer real value for money.
In a world where we often sacrifice quality for cost, Argo on Parade challenges this notion, proving that you can indeed have the best of both worlds - wholesome, delicious food that aligns with your dietary preferences, served in a setting that is both comfortable and chic.
If you're looking for a café that not only caters to your dietary requirements but also makes you feel welcomed and appreciated, Argo on Parade should be at the top of your list. While it may be a little more expensive, the overall experience justifies every penny. I left Argo on Parade not just with a satisfied palate, but with the joy of a splendid start to my day. The memory of this culinary delight is sure to bring...
Read moreReally sad, I've always loved this place. Today (a Monday) I brought a friend for lunch who came to visit from interstate. We ordered through scanning from our table. Both of us ordered from our own phone 1 juice and 1 main meal at the same time. My friends juice came out very promptly. Then 30 minutes later my main came out. We waited for a total of an hour for my juice and her main before I went up to the counter where I very nicely asked if they could check if the juice and meal were still coming. The girl was very rude and said, we are busy so it will still be coming (so she wasn't going to check) I responded, still very friendly, saying it's just strange that she had only received her juice and I didn't and I had received my meal and she hadn't, so that's why I thought maybe there was a mistake. The girl serving responded, well that's the problem, you ordered separately, so we would never have been able to bring them both out at the same time... I then went to repeat how it wasn't that one of us had our full order and the other didn't it was we each received one item only from our order and it had been over an hour. The lady again, more aggressively told me that it was my problem and if we wanted things at the same time the we should have ordered it on the same phone. I was shocked and didn't understand why she was being nasty to me, when I was nothing but lovely (plus may I mention, I'm a customer and she's in a customer service role?!?) I then said, could you please just check. Which she said she would. After finally receiving our items, I found a caterpillar in my meal 🤢🤮 there was no way I was going back up to the counter to tell her. So my $30 meal was left uneaten. Absolute waste of money and I was embarrassed I brought my friend here. I would never recommend...
Read moreI’m not the type to write reviews, I barely ever do, but I feel I need to voice this one because I’ve never had service like this before.
I’ve been to this restaurant many times and it used to be one of my go-to spots, but after today I won’t be returning. We ordered the Glow Bowl with raw salmon, which we’ve had plenty of times before and always enjoyed - fresh-tasting and up to standard. This time it was different, the raw salmon was extremely fishy and unpleasant, nothing like how it normally tastes. It simply wasn’t up to standard.
When I raised this with the manager, Carla, the response was defensive rather than helpful. She kept insisting the salmon was “supposed to taste fishy” and pointed out that 20 other people had ordered it today without complaint, as though that invalidated my experience. The only options she mentioned were cooking the raw salmon or swapping it for chicken, but neither addressed the fact that the original dish wasn’t right.
Eventually I was given a refund, but it was reluctantly done and the whole interaction lacked empathy. I understand fish had been delivered that morning, but as a paying customer I should be able to raise a legitimate concern, and have it taken seriously, not met with defensiveness.
The other dish we ordered was delicious, as it always has been. I have no complaints about anything else but the salmon. But the way this was handled was really disappointing, and because of that service I won’t be...
