Uncle Mikes Bistro in Argyle, I had hoped would be a delightful experience turned into an outright disaster, marred by subpar food, poor service, and a shocking lack of cleanliness.
From the moment we stepped inside, the space felt cramped and neglected. There was virtually no room to move comfortably, and the entire establishment was in dire need of remodeling. Dust was thick in the air, visibly hanging over us, coating surfaces, and making it difficult to ignore the unsettling feeling that cleanliness was not a priority. The lack of upkeep alone was enough to make me hesitant about eating, but what followed removed any doubt.
The young woman working at the front displayed little interest in assisting us, her attitude was unwelcoming. It’s like we were inconveniencing her.
When our food finally arrived, it was delivered by a man with an exceptionally long beard, which hovered over my plate as he was walking toward us and as he set it down. The sight was beyond unprofessional, and all I could do was silently hope that he had not been the one preparing the food as well. Unfortunately, my worst fears were confirmed when I found not one, but multiple hairs—one in my butter and another directly on my plate. Uncle Mike’s Bistro is not just in need of improvement; it is in need of a complete overhaul. Between the unprofessional service, lack of hygiene, and truly unsettling dining conditions, there is absolutely no reason to return. With so many other restaurants in the area that take pride in their food and atmosphere, I strongly advise others to look elsewhere. Save your money and run! If I could give zero...

Read moreWhat a find! My husband found this little gem for a brunch date with his dad, and it did not disappoint. From the second you walk in, it feels like you're part of the family so seat yourself and wait for your friendly waitstaff. I ordered a delicious chicken sandwich with tomato and avocado. The side was a choice of chips or cucumber salad. (If you would be that person who ordered the chips, just stop reading this review because McDonald's is where you should be eating.) The cucumber salad had the right amount of everything -- seasoning, cucumber, vinegar -- AMAZING. My one disappointment was that they didn't have sweet tea; but, our waitress brought me an unsweetened tea with a side of peach-flavored syrup to "try" and... WOW! Peach teas all around, please. After the meal, we had three people come over to ask how the food was and if we were satisfied. I'm going back. This time, I'm...
