Nope...not again. The first time we ate here was because we had seen it featured on TV...there were others that prob saw it too as the place was packed on that 1st visit. I remember we ordered shepherd's pie and bison burger; well, remember those crappy schneider's frozen shepherd pies you could heat up and eat (for me in my uni days)...and finished in all of like 5 bites? Yeah, well, picture that, only slightly bigger. I was hoping flavour would make up for the size but it was bland and I ended up having to sprinkle salt (rarely do this) and a lot of pepper to finish it off. As for the burger, it was just that...a burger that was nothing special. We are always willing to give a place a second chance though and while in the area thought we'd give it another go. It only confirmed for us that we will prob never return again...calamari was chewy, like it'd been sitting out cuz the breading was also chewy. As for the poutine they're well known for, soggy fries you could tell were soggy before gravy hit it. Service was meh...bare minimum. Not again. read more

I've been going to the Grill since it opened once every couple of months and it used to be delicious. Food quality has really gone down hill. They still have good wings but for the second time in a row had a really bad customer experience. Once we had to wait 45 minutes for nachos and chicken fingers in an almost empty restaurant, and another time our food was under cooked enough that it wasn't palatable Both times we were made to feel like we were in the wrong. The waitress was downright rude and they refused to acknowledge there was anything wrong. I really want to like this place but their customer service needs a makeover. read more

I have been frequenting the Argyle Street Grill since it's opening. Loved it. Lately, since Chef Wade has purchased the Bin and is now The Binbrook Grill things have definitely gone way down hill. I ate there Friday for lunch with friends. Ordered the half chicken club, seafood chowder and salad. Also ordered an appetizer of marble cheese planks. First off, the cheese planks were so burnt on the outside it ruined the taste of the cheese. My sandwich was also over grilled and cut the roof of my mouth when I bit into it. The soup was lukewarm and just ok. Salad out of a bag of mixed greens, a few candied pecans thrown on top and a side of balsamic. Not what it used to be. I went back Saturday night and sat on the patio. Was a beautiful night and wanted to dine outside. My friend ordered the philly steak cheese and fries, she loved it. It was a Panini style, I prefer the real philly sandwich. I ordered the wicked burger and fries. Again, so dry I could have used it in my barbeque for a briquette. Over cooked again. Above medium should be outlawed. As we were dining bugs kept falling from the trees above. The entire patio is covered with trees except for one corner which was taken. We called over the waitress and explained the situation and she was doing a great job of handling it until a mouthy waitress stepped in and kept repeating "Your sitting under a tree". This we knew. Bugs live in trees as do birds. Glad it wasn't bird crap, they sit in trees also. Very rude waitress, no customer service at all. Perhaps if you are going to have trees and bugs falling from them you should invest in small umbrellas for the dining area. I am going to the Binbrook Grill today for lunch, try it to see if that is where the good food has gone. Too bad, I used to really enjoy this place. I have never found any of the staff to be amazing except for that rude mouthy waitress on Saturday night. The blonde lady who was talking to us was handling it all just fine she did not need this morons help. She should be let go and replaced by the good quality staff that has always been there. Who is running this ship now? Not sure if any of us will ever be going back. Too bad. read more

One word Horrible. Was there last night. Waited 20 minutes for a seat. Pretty good for a Friday night. Was seated and the waitress took our drink order. There was no "up scale" liquor. So I settled for a local Pint. Wife had a glass of red wine. Ordered the lobster and crab dip. Wasn't too bad a little fishy, I know it is seafood but it had that old fish taste. Finished my pint and waited to be asked for another as our entrées had arrived, No dice on that one. No water was served with the meal either. presentation was very nice. I ordered a sirloin medium. Steak was cooked medium but was not sweated at all. There was water and blood on the plate. Huge rookie mistake. Asparagus was raw. it was grilled but it was not cooked at all. Steak had zero flavour, I assume previously frozen. it was seasoned with Montreal steak spice. Really at a restaurant. Steak spice. Wife had the exact same with potatoes. they were so dense and tasteless. Super horrible. The owner came by to see how the steak were. I asked if the steaks were frozen. He replied no and started to run away like a cock roach when the lights come on. ahahahahahah lol Not at all an up scale restaurant. top ten restaurant in Ontario no way. read more

Love this restaurant, so glad we can reserve a table when we want to go there. Great staff we'll run, terrific food. Caledonia should be proud to have such a great place. read more

Food was delicious and fresh, service was quick and friendly. Definitely one of my favourite places to go for any occasion - date night, group celebrations, drinks and apps. Highly recommended! read more

We try to go to wing night on Tuesday's as much as we can! its an awesome deals, I don't always get the wings but we like the food. Just wish they had more of a traditional Buffalo style, there Med is the closest to it but too hot for my liking. read more

Food is inconsistent and wait staff is slow. When they first opened it was great. Over time it's lost its ability to meet customers needs. Go to The Cornerstone. You won't be disappointed there. read more

I have eaten here several times and it has always been great service and food. I recommend their wings, especially on Tuesday nights, and their seafood pasta, amazing. read more

Food good. Service good. Too noisy. Could not conduct civil conversation. Very disappointing. May not return.

Outstanding meal, accompanied by friendly, knowledgeable service. We went on a Saturday evening when prime rib is the house special. Two members out of our party of 4 had the prime rib and the other two chose lamb shanks. By the end of the meal we were almost arguing over which selection was better! I have eaten primes rib in some very high end restaurants, but none as good as this; it was served with mashed potatoes and asparagus, and the portions were just right! We were actually fortunate to get in, since we were 25 late for our reservation. I called ahead to say we would be 10 minutes late, without realizing that the fall fair was in full swing. The traffic getting through Caledonia was gridlocked, especially with only one bridge across the Grand River! However, despite the restaurant being full to capacity, they held our table. Talk about impressed!! The wait staff were excellent and the owner stopped by our table to enquire about the meal. Only one drawback that kept me from giving the Argyle St. Grill 5 stars wa the fact that there was nothing to baffle the sound, and without shouting we were unable to carry on a conversation among ourselves. This was decidedly disappointing, but will not keep us from returning again, and again, and again!! read more

this restaurant never ceases to amaze me, food was great service was top notch our reservation was right on time. Good job Argyle Street grill read more

Made reservation for Tuesday - wing night - thank goodness - 1-1/2 wait otherwise - wings were good and very well presented - server was young but very attentive - would definitely return - can make reservations online but must be before 24 hour deadline - however called the resaurant and was able to make one - received a confirmation a few minutes later via my phone - reminder on Tuesday morning and another just before the time for the reservation = quit an efficient system but a bit of overkill - Judi T read more

The Argyle Street Grill 345 St. South, Caledonia. 905-765-9622, theargylestreetgrill.com The Draw - Appropriately priced, local, fresh food; happy staff; and attentive service. The Drawback - Seats fill up fast. Plan your evening accordingly. Don't Miss - The scallops; bison meatloaf. Price $$ - (average entrée price $15) "Do you think we can get a spot on the patio?" We both had a chilly November laugh before entering the warm dining room. My dining partner this evening, if you've yet to guess, is a comedian. No, really, that's his job! He's also my brother. Wade Taylor isn't just an owner, he's a chef, and he has forged his career taking food seriously. I have been looking forward to this meal while remaining cautiously optimistic. Tonight we were in the hands of Chef Josh Anderson and Sous Chef Dave Aul. And the new menu, which locals have been telling me about, was finally within my grasp. Would the menu live up to expectation? I had waited three weeks for the chefs to get comfortable with the new menu. More than enough time for them to settle in. We arrived at approximately 3:50pm. I like to get a spot just before the dinner rush so I can observe the staff grow from a mid-afternoon crawl into a full on dinner service dash. The waitress was a busy, blonde haired lady, who smiled and told us that she would return momentarily. Two minutes and thirty-four seconds pass, "Where would you like to sit?" she asks. I pointed to a table in the middle of the dining room. "That one!" I had read that the Argyle St. Grill was upscale. So before going, I donned the most blue collar clothing I could find, which wasn't hard; it's my normal dress. With true class and appreciation I was given seating wherever I wanted, despite my humble appearance, they made me feel very welcome. A truly upscale restaurant doesn't care how you dress, because class is a mindset, not an appearance. You work hard for your money, so if someone is willing to take it from you, they better offer a service you will remember. The Argyle St. Grill lives up to its upscale reputation with values of inclusion and kindness, making you feel on top of the world, and appreciated during your meal. The wine menu is diverse and contains many red and whites from Ontario. Local wine is meant to match local food so the selection makes sense. A 6oz glass of wine will run you from 5.90 for Dragon Blended California Red to upwards of 8.40 for an Australian Blass Cabernet Sauvignon. Quench your thirst confidently with the grill's smart selection of well-priced wine. To start, I tried to order mussels, but they are no longer on the menu. However, there is an interesting twist to this; the grill holds a free mussel bar on Thursday evenings, which is great for bringing the community together and even better for us sea- foodies. Free mussels and reasonably priced wine in this atmosphere is magic. "I would like to start with the scallops, please." "Excellent choice," she said, again smiling. "And for my main entrée I would like a medium rare steak." My brother ordered the bison meatloaf with an extra helping of asparagus. The maple bacon-jelly was a steady, sensual, salty-sweet flavor on the upper decks of my mouth. The scallops, perfectly cooked, smashed like waves into the bacon, creating a delicious ocean- meets-farm taste. One doesn't speak while eating these scallops. You simply close your eyes, jettison your thoughts, and float. The steak was exactly as it should be. There was no obnoxious sauce hiding the cut, considering where it came from, why would there be? This cattle's been locally raised on a hormone-free, vegetable based diet, about twenty minutes outside of town since 1969. I ordered medium-rare and that's exactly what I received; tender and juicy with a warm center. The steak was grilled beautifully, with deep, black, crosshatching and a juicy shine on the top.Some restaurants will pre-fry your chicken wings before you order them. Whether this is for efficiency or crispiness it is a practice that I wouldn't boast about. The Argyle St. Grill makes your wings when you order them, and they know what they're doing, because the skin is crispy and the meat's so juicy I found myself desperately clearing every bone before surfacing for air. I ordered my wings without the flour dusting and the staff was more than happy to oblige. Each bite cracked through the skin into the soft texture of chicken meat dowsed in spicy juices causing your tongue to capsize again and again in attempt to capture the taste as much as possible before swallowing. The aroma teases you between bites, beckoning you to pick up the next wing, until there is nothing but a monument of bones left to prove that something this good actually exists on earth. Albeit my steak was cooked with caring hands and to perfection, I just couldn't help but feel an innate jealousy toward my brother's plate. That bison meatloaf sat on the plate like it owned the whole dining room... read more

Been to this place many times& always worth the drive to caledonia. Had the portobello chicken as the main and it was very tasty! Had my all time fave molten cheese planks as appetizer and butterscotch pots de creme for dessert. Absolutely love this dessert. The Argyle never disappoints, we'll be back again and again! read more
