Ranked in Best Casual Dining in Hurlingham
About
The pork chops are excellent — fresh, very palatable, and flavourful at 9.9 out of 10. Refined Italian dining with a contemporary, welcoming atmosphere blending classic Mediterranean flavours with modern presentation. Delicious food with heating in the outdoor area for cold weather, though food can take long to arrive and the sirloin steak might be cold.

Argenti on State House Road offers a refined Italian dining experience with a contemporary and welcoming atmosphere, blending classic Mediterranean flavours with modern presentation. The restaurant’s interior is elegant yet relaxed, with thoughtful décor, comfortable seating, and a setting that suits romantic dinners, business lunches, or leisurely evenings with friends. Portions are satisfying and presentation is attentive to detail, while the wine list and drinks selection pair nicely with the dishes. Friendly, professional service adds to the overall experience. #EatOutApproved!

Delicious food and very friendly staff. The ambience is good too. It was really cosy inside despite the cold weather. They have heating in the outdoor area as well. I'll definitely be back!

I'm always looking for a good place to work away from home so I tried Argenti Restaurant, State House, as I'd been here previously for drinks. In terms of working from the restaurant, I give it a 4 star. The space is good, it's not crowded so you can work in peace, the tables are well distanced and you can choose from various seating locations as each has a charging power point closeby. WiFi was also good and you can choose between to user accounts should one drop off. But I didn't get any problems. I also enjoyed a lunch meal and dawa which were both perfectly presented and tasty. If you wish to carry on after work, there is a full menu from breakfast menu to bar menu and drinks menu. 😋

It's a great place to go for a date. It's in a quiet, secluded area and it's beautiful, also if you seat outside, they can light the brazier to help fight the cold. The service is great: attentive and helpful and the food is amazing. Also, I would definitely recommend trying their cocktails
