    Situated between two other Italian chain restaurants nearby, you can’t go wrong with this local owned Italian restaurant. Service was great and the food was even better. You’re greeted with tons of dessert options as soon as you walk in. You almost don’t want to go further for the real food, but you won’t be disappointed when you are seated. We were very happy with our experience and will make a point to return.

    This place was a absolutely pleasant experience! I'm not one to go out and eat a bunch of carbs but if your looking to cheat this is the place. The pictures don't do the size of these portions justice. I'm 6'2 and regularly enjoy going to buffets to eat but I'll tell you what I didn't leave this place hungry! The food to was AMAZING!

    This was my first time trying this restaurant. The interior is very nice with staff wearing shirt and tie. There is a very large selection on the menu with full bar. Monday thru Saturday till 530 pm they have specials. I ordered the Shrimp fra Diablo hot which has available mild and medium also. It comes with rolls and choice of 1 of 2 soups or salad. The creamy Italian dressing is lightly sweet and salad had green olives, cherry tomato and cucumber on top. The main dish was mildly spicy (I'm used to hot being really spicy) with very flavorful sauce. One complaint is the shrimp were under the sauce and still had the tail on. It would be better to have the tail off prior to adding sauce or lay the shrimp on top. For dessert I tried the tiramisu which had a mild flavor and very light. I would call it a happy ending type dessert being a small portion. Service by Johnathan was excellent. Overall a very nice place to come have a relaxing dinner. It was a nice change from chain restaurants since it's independently owned.

    Blt pizza was so good!! Definitely my favorite 😍 and FINALLY REAL RAINBOW COOKIES!! So hard to find good rainbow cookies in the area but these were great! The chocolate raspberry cheesecake was also very good! Large selection at the bakery, felt like I was back in New York

    Wow! What a great local place. Almost seems too nice to be just a one-location place but here you can support locals. Food is quite a bit better than average for Italian. They really know how to make sauces. Definitely recommended. Also the lunch special is hard to beat — $24.95 for two entrees and two sides (and you can add more for $12.95 each)

    If you ever go to this place and God knows you should, do yourself a favor call ahead, and ask for David. He may be working the bar, he may be working in the kitchen, or you might be at the door saying hello to you when you walk in, wherever he is as long as he's in the restaurant you will have a fantastic experience and he will make you feel like your family. The food is flat amazing, generous portions the bakery will make you stop in your tracks, be prepared for a line when you walk in the door. I cannot say enough about this family owned restaurant, you have got to go! Just so you know why I'm saying this it's an hour and a half from where we live, 3-hour drive round trip we literally go out of our way to go to this place, and David has made it worth it every time. Do yourself favor get there and enjoy yourself.

    Amazing! We were looking to try a restaurant we never been to and I am so glad we did.. Argento’s is amazing and our server Maritza made the whole experience perfect. All our meals were amazing and the service was impeccable.

    The portions, the service and the meal was all top notch. Very reasonably priced. I will recommend this restaurant to everyone I know. My only regret is that I ate so much there was no way I was going to attempt dessert.... and they looked AWESOME!!!

    The meal was delicious and priced at what you'd expect in this economy and for good Italian food. About 30-35$ per person for an entree, drink, taxes and tip. Definitely high quality good and absolutely recommended.

    Service was great. Food was awesome. Jolene at the bakery was by far the sweetest person! She was so friendly and patient with the kids picking out their deserts. We will definitely be back!

    We went here for the first time yesterday. Excellent atmosphere. Great prices! And most importantly, the food tasted great. We took advantage of the 2 Entrees specials each so we could try out more dishes with the mindset of bringing home a lot of leftovers: Cheese Tortellini, Chicken Ala Sal, Chicken Marsala, Old School (Spaghetti & Meatball). Loved the Saloon style bar as well. And to top it off they have a bakery for yummy treats to take when you leave! Will be back for sure!

    Nice environment. The food is really good! Carbonara pasta is AMAZING. Chicken saltimboca is good. Stuffed mushroom is also amazing. Bread is ok. Sangria and margarita ok. Desserts to go, raspberry with no chocolate is delicious! Chocolate with cheesecake was good. Very nice place to come back.

    Great selection of desserts. This place is always busy I recommend calling ahead or be ready to wait quite a bit if you go during dining hours. The food was great, I wasn’t a big fan of the pizza but the spaghetti was good.

    Always delicious, always fresh. The calamari is the freshest you’ll ever have. Portion size will leave you enough for a second meal. Ellen was awesome and made our dining experience that much more enjoyable, ask for her.

    The marinara sauce is way too sweet. Tastes like Little Cesar’s. The stuffed mushrooms are out of this world good. So are all the pastries. Delicious. Any server I’ve had has been fantastic, and the girls at the pastry counter are always helpful. Not my go to place for good Italian food, but it’s better than Olive Garden.

    Great place for a family get together. Staff was super nice and attentive. Food was very good ...Greek salad was great. Chicken Alfredo was also good. Great marinara sauce for the fresh baked bread. Nice decor as well. Big area in back for large parties. Very busy on Saturday night so get there early or wait can be 30 to 40 minutes. Bartender was very busy guy but fast .

    This was my first time catering and found the food amazing. I was surprised to see a long line @ the restaurant upon my arrival. I was pleasantly surprised to find my wait was shorter than expected as I was allowed to wait inside as I had an order waiting for pickup. I appreciated that the CDC guidelines were being followed.

    Excellent service and food. Everything came out hot and yummy looking. My veal parm was fabulous and my husband's calamari meal was too! Our waiter Guillermo was excellent, very attentive and helpful. They have a pastry shop there that is to die for. This was our first time there but definitely not our last.

    David...was our server 11 people party with kids!! He was awesome, patient and funny. He knew exactly how to do what he does best...served the kids first, bring boxes to the table, made suggestions on choices! We enjoyed this lunch, food was undeniably delicious down to the dessert..We were there to celebrate my aunts birthday! I would recommend Argentos to anyone wanting this experience and request David ..I'm sure you will leave satisfied😌

    Food was pretty good. We had the Chicken and broccoli Alfredo, Shrimp Jonny and Chicken Oscar along with salad and Pasta e fagioli. Waitress was friendly and helpful. Great that they have a bakery on site and most pastries are $ 3.75 which is an awesome price. Will be back to try their Thanksgiving dinner.

    One of the best Italian Food joints we've been to in the state of Florida. Great menu choices, wait staff was on point, our service was a tad slow but it was her first day so It's understandable. The onsite bakery was definitely a big bonus for us. Boxed up some goodies to take home, the chocolate cake cheesecake was mind blowing... Took a pizza home too! Top notch pie, definitely would recommend this place portions are nice size worth a trip there!

    I went to Argentos this past Friday night for the first time with a group of friends. I ordered Chicken Parmesan. I received a nice sized salad, roll, and an absolutely huge plate of food! The taste was great. Everything was piping hot and flavorful. We’ll be back. I had leftovers the next night and enough leftover pasta for a lunch the day after! Prices are fair.

  • 1/5 Marie M. 3 years ago on Google
    Worst service ever. We had Katie and had to ask for everything including simple things like bread to which she rolled her eyes at us, who does that???? We were there for a celebration and it killed it. The front staff was super nice, but that's the only nice thing I can say about our trip there.

  • 4/5 Carmen M. 1 year ago on Google
    My husband and I tried this restaurant last night. First, when you walk in, you are greeted by a large glass counter with all types of colorful and delicious looking deserts! I wish I could have gotten a picture, but there were too many people around. We had the 2 crispy calamari, bread, clams in white sauce and the 3 ricotta stuffed shells (the latter 2 dishes were part of the 2 entrees for $25, where you also received a soup or salad). They serve large portions so you'll probably have some yummy leftovers! We will be back to try different entrees and get some of those deserts! Closed Mondays.

  • 5/5 Andrew C. 3 years ago on Google
    My favorite Italian restaurant to this date. Now also my favorite pizza place as well. Just tried the pizza for the first time. You guys are seriously awesome at all of the menu items. Will always come back!!! This order was through Postmates, who also were very courteous. I appreciate you both.

  • 5/5 George K. 11 months ago on Google
    Ordered a pizza from Argento's/Antonio's Express yesterday. Was very happy with it n have been craving chicken parm so called them to pick it up. Was huge, got another meal from the leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Friendly service. DON'T GO INSIDE!! Make them bring it out to you because the pick up counter is also the bakery counter so they trap you with all of the amazing desserts! 🤣😁😉

  • 5/5 Angela F. 10 months ago on Google
    WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!!!!! I've been wanting to stop and try this place for a while, but things have just not panned out. I'm SO glad we were able to stop in today!!!! We were there for lunch, so I got the Italian sub, and my honey got the steak and cheese sandwich. The price was AWESOME for the amount of food we got! The portion was RIDICULOUS!!! We TOTALLY could have shared 1 sandwich for SURE!!! They both came with fries (and a lot of them!) I WISH I could remember names because our waitress was AWESOME!!! She had the BEST personality and sense of humor! We will absolutely be back!!!
