The Reviews

Written By: Mame McAllister

For our wedding on February 18, 2018 we chose the restaurant for the quality of the food and the friendly service we would receive. We were not disappointed. Our wedding party consisted of 6 people. With the size of our party we were allowed to chose from a variety of caterettas. We selected “Chicken Marsala”, “Pollo Argentino”, and “Veal Zuppa”. Our meal came out perfectly seperated and very delicious. We were offered a second serving during our dessert hour and we were not disappointed. We also ordered tiramisu, “The Best Cupcakes EVER!”, and “The Best Chocolate Ever!”. Our desserts were also served in a manner that they were not melted and gross (like wedding cake usually is). Our guests were extremely pleased with all the desserts. The staff was very patient with our requests for pictures of the desserts, and they also provided us with plates for leftovers. We were extremely pleased with the service we received from the staff at Argento’s. They made our night delicious and memorable! I would highly recommend Argento’s to anyone looking for a great italian bistro in the Miami area. Thank you to everyone at Argento’s for making our night so memorable!

For our wedding reception, my husband and I wanted our experience at Argento’s to be a part of our special day. As delicious as the food is, it is the service that sets Argento’s apart. The entire staff is so friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure your experience is nothing less than magical. We were able to customize every aspect of our wedding meal, from the menu to the style of service, every detail was under my control and they made sure it was exactly what we wanted. Not only was the food delicious, but the presentation was beyond anything we could’ve ever hoped for. They have an amazing set up for displaying their food, and it’s so impressive, it actually looks good, which is hard to do. If we had any concerns or issues, we never would’ve known it, as they went above and beyond to make sure we were completely happy. We were so impressed with the service, the food, and the entire wedding experience, that we had our wedding at Argento’s, in lieu of a wedding cake (and we don’t even really like cake!). It was the perfect way to ensure we were able to enjoy all of the delicious food we wanted, without having to choose between any of the amazing options they have to offer. We feel like we got an experience that is equal parts restaurant and wedding, and it was everything we could’ve asked for. Thank you so much Argento’s, you really made our day special.

We had our wedding at the Argento’s Italian Bistro on November 11th, 2015. We were married at the Palm Island Club and Argento’s is one of the preferred vendors. I must say that I felt that I had found a “hidden gem” when it came to bakers for my wedding cake. I am so glad that I did! From the beginning, Sergio and his staff were very responsive and helpful. We set up an appointment with Mr. Argento (the owner) to discuss our cake design and flavor. We were greeted with a tray of chocolate covered strawberry (yum)! He explained to us how the cake business was “in the blood” of the Argento family. He explained how they have been doing it for generations. We discussed our idea for a wedding cake and how we would like it to look. He drew a sketch and wrote down the flavor. We were so happy and excited! We showed up for our cake tasting to find that we didn’t need to bring a piece of cake home! They provide a “temple” of different cake flavors, different fillings and different frostings! We chose our cake flavor, our filling and our frosting. We got to try everything! We were even able to choose two flavors! We also got to pick our cake design…we chose one of their many options online. We got to talk to the owner one more time to explain that we had a few guests that could not eat gluten. We got the call the day before our wedding to explain that the design we chose had a “hidden gluten” (it doesn’t-but we had a few guests that could not eat gluten). They found a design that was similar to our chosen design but was gluten free. We chose not to use the word “gluten” in our cake topper so as not to offend anyone that couldn’t eat gluten.

The day of our wedding our cake was delivered to our venue. It was beautiful! They decorated it with fresh flowers from our florist (we had a florist with a partnership with Argento’s-they will work together to place the flowers on the cake when it is delivered-it is SO nice to not have to worry about this)! We chose a chocolate cake with hazelnut filling and chocolate butter cream frosting. It was so delicious! We also got to keep the top of our cake in our wedding album for a year!

Our cake was beautiful and delicious! The cake was also very reasonable in price! We were so very pleased! They also gave us a gift card for a top tier of our cake (for our one year anniversary)! I would highly recommend them for any occasion!
