Argo Cafe
Argo Cafe is a Vancouver institution established in 1954, reimagined in 2004 by Chef Denis Larouche and Kirby Wong from a classic greasy spoon into an eclectic diner spanning real beef burgers, turkey clubhouse, and sesame-crusted tuna salad through to sirloin steak with peppercorn sauce. Situated on Ontario Street in East Vancouver — a well-travelled cycling corridor — it pitches itself as 'Downtown food, at an East Van price,' offering rotating daily specials and house-made pies and soups to go.
