"Argy's" as it is affectionately known by locals, is a great place to chill out with friends, a beer and some delicious pizza. The staff are very relaxed so do not expect attentive service or any sort of 5 star restaurant treatment... but this is part of Argy's charm. Located at 263 Carlisle St (corner of Westbury St) in Balaclava, (03) 9527 2122, www.argybargy.com.au.
The menu consists of a variety of pizzas including yummy desert pizzas with chocolate, tim tams and mascarpone. Sides include fries, salads and a large serving of wedges, just how we like it, with sweet chili and sour cream.
If you are feeling a bit peckish at lunch time they have pizzas for $8 and on Mondays after 8pm their pizza and a pot is $12. Yummy!! We love cheap places with good food.
The 80's theme will please most, from the comfy couches and booths to the cool cartoon artwork all over the tables and walls. The big screens showing the footy, music clips and astro boy should please the others. Vinyl spins on the decks which gives Argy's a cool, relaxed vibe.
The first pizza we sample is the "Sheep Shagger" ($12.90) with spicy lamb mince, capsicum, mozzarella & greek yoghurt. This is the immediate favourite and a must try for all! Full of flavour and with a bit of spice, it is definitely not like any pizza I have tried before.
The "Il Salzone" ($13.90) with smoked salmon, mozzarella, spinach, cream cheese, cracked pepper & herbs is an absolute standout. The saltiness of the salmon with the oh so creamy cheese is just amazing!
Next up is the "Hokey Pokey" ($9.90) which is Argy's version of the margarita with tomato, mozzarella, basil, crushed garlic & herbs (we added olives) is tasty! I am not usually a fan of margaritas as I like a lot of toppings but this was a nice pizza that won't disappoint cheese fans.
The "Argy Bang!" ($11.90) with salami, mozzarella, mild chili & garlic was a hit! Verrrrry tasty I must say!
For a relaxed and funky feel, the only place to be is at Argy Bargy's. The no-fuss atmosphere is perfect for a night out with pals and pizza!
