The Argyle - The Rocks

Price per person: A$100–120 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3

We visited the Argyle in search of a bargain on 10c dumpling Thursdays during happy hour! While prices were low, so was the quality of the food and service we received. Despite being advertised until 10 o'clock, dumplings sold out at 7pm. Our food was cold when it arrived to the table. The bar staff struggled to handle even short queues in the 30 minutes leading up to happy hour ending. Despite this, we are giving the Argyle the benefit of the doubt and will try it again before writing it off entirely. The drinks and music were saving grace.

Horrendous place! My friends and I were keen to give this place a shot, but were rejected by the guards’ claims that “my friend was too drunk” and “she intruded my personal space”. Honestly, she looked perfectly sober, more than anyone else who might have been given entry to the bar/club. And the only way for her to enter was to recite the alphabets backwards! Come on, anyone sober would not be able to do it right and fast, but give her any math question and she can do it right away. When questioned on the basis as to why we were really rejected, they said not to waste their time and check out other clubs. Such irrational judgement had ruined our night and honestly, our entire holiday in Sydney! Having the supervisor try salvage the situation will not cut it, because anyone of working age should be mature enough to admit they are in the wrong and that they made the wrong judgement call!
