Arghon fine dining

Arghon Fine Dine is a hidden gem that delivers a truly elevated dining experience. From the moment you step in, the ambiance strikes the perfect balance between elegant and welcoming--ideal for both intimate dinners and family gatherings. Service was exceptional--attentive, polite, and genuinely hospitable. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations without being intrusive

The place is presented as fine dining restaurant, located in Leh market on 1st floor. Ambiance from outside and inside the restaurant is very good. But food, presentation, and service are poor. We went to the restaurant late in the evening (7.30 pm in February) and ordered Manchow veg soup and chicken Thupka (as they said mutton was not available). Later, they made us change the order to Veg Thupka as Chicken was also not available. Both the Thupka and the Manchow veg soup tasted almost the same. The crockery in which food was given was broken.

Great food and larger variety of new dishes The ambiance is warm and inviting, with just the right balance of elegance and comfort. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. The menu offered a wonderful variety of options, and every dish we tried was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Even the desserts were a highlight

I ordered mutton thukpa and got a bowl of soup. It was nice but a thukpa without Noodles' is not something I was expecting. I just got very few broken noodles in it and being a restauranteur myself, I hope the owner knows this. I politely ordered for some noodles in the bowl and the waiter said it won't be possible . So, I told him I will pay. Then he agreed. The guy spoke nicely but I feel cheated for the meal I got. Hope you will take it in consideration. Also I will delete my review after I receive a reply. Thanks

We tried Cafe Latte and French Fries which were delicious. We had a soothing evening . The market seems beautiful from the terrace. Extremely impressive! EATHEARTY!

The food is just delicious! Loved the ambiance here and the staff is very friendly. A must visit place if you wanna have good food and fine dining.

I'd my eye on the Arghon Fine Dining for a long time. It's a brand new eatery that opened this June, several days after I arrived in Leh this summer. At night, it's bright ambient lights and decor, are a bright spot near the main mosque. During the day, people sitting in its second-floor balcony or on the third-floor terrace invariably catch your eye. Yeah! it's that prominent. Up two flights of stairs, from a side lane running off the mosque courtyard, the restaurant's second-floor seating area is comfortable with broad, cushioned chairs around round tables that seat three by huge glass windows overlooking the market, and also a more formal arrangement of four chairs around rectangular tables at one end of the wall. There's a narrow balcony with high stools overlooking the mosque courtyard and the main market, great for people-watching. Everything is shiny and spic and span, as a brand new place should be. I preferred sitting on the open terrace with glass sides and faux grass. The views of the mosque, market, the Leh palace and Leh city from here is non pareil! You can see the snow-covered peak of Stok Kangri(6050m) and its sister snowy peaks, a lovely view indeed. The Arghon's menu is a bit mystifying. To begin with it's very concise, too concise. It gives the impression that it's a Mughlai joint, but it serves pizzas and it's Indian meat section is very small. It's name spells fine dining, but it lacks that ambience. It's more of a bistro, minus the friendly, conversational chef. Short of ideas on what to eat, and unsure of their offering, I played safe and ordered chicken seekh kebab and tandoori roti. One can't go too wrong there. For dessert, there was just bakery items, and I toyed with the idea of having brownie with icecream, before dropping it, the brownie being a very tiny piece. I gushed over the terrace views under the hot sun. The snowy peaks surrounding the Leh Valley, glistening under the afternoon sun. The food took time in arriving. The seekh kebab was just about okay. It wasn't meaty enough, a bit dry and could've been a bit more spicy. The roti was fine. The kebab, wrapped in a piece of roti, dipped in the spicy mint-yoghurt chutney was yumm. I ran out of the chutney and ordered some more. If I'd to go to the Arghon again, it would be for the views.

Ambience wise, place was nice and cosy. Not a fine dine, rather a cosy Bistro. Staff were kind and well behaved. Food was okayish considering the limited staff. Ordered Peri peri chicken Pizza and crispy chicken. Pizza was tasty but crust was a bit hard. Crispy chicken was good. Only thing on the downside was that if you go there late evening like I did, you'll find that it's understaffed and orders take too long to arrive.
