Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Margaux delights guests with "wonderful octopus starter" and "superb rum cocktail." Its "cozy, intimate" setting is perfect for date nights. Known for "genuine French food," Margaux offers a "fantastic menu" with standout dishes like beef bourguignon. Exceptional service and an impressive wine list make this a "neighbourhood classic" worth revisiting.

Pretty substandard. Food was mediocre, the seared fois gras was overdone, so the consistency was wrong. There was a short black hair in my cod main course. Tarte tatin was not what it claimed to be, soggy puff pastry surrounding stewed apple, the only hint of caramel was from the caramel sauce squeezed over the top. None of the tart was actually caramelized. The two servings were removed from the bill, without asking, which was good. The service was friendly but sloppy. We repeatedly had to ask for our wine to be topped up (white wine not left of the table). To top it off, one of our party was violently sick shortly after eating here.

Perhaps the beef bourignon and the service are the only 2 things we will come back for!

Very good and well executed food Nice dining room, efficient staff The tatin was not my favourite take (I prefer it more on the buttery//caramelised apples side), too much rosemary, and cocoa nibbles But overall some good food

We really like eating in this restaurant. The food is very good but there always a feeling of being rushed. We could been out of the place within an hour. They could just slow it down a little bit.
