Margaux's Restaurant

This place is amazing. I had a great experience. There service was above and beyond. Food was good. No complain at all. Staffs were extremely knowledgeable with there food. I had everything they recommended and was really good. Thank you for a good food recommendation. Will be back for more!

4 Had a nice bday celebration here Reservations are recommended We got the prefix which was good Apparently you can swap a dessert for an appetizer, which I wish I did. The food was good but the dessert not the best, a little frozen and too sweet. The desserts took more time than the food to come out which was odd ,considering they were still frozen and prepared Cute eclectic spot Scallops were well cooked Nice art Just slow at the end

I've been wanting to try this place based on the outside appearance. It looked so fancy on the exterior. Inside was a different story. The temperature inside is unbearable. I was uncomfortably cold and worried my food would get cold faster than I could eat it. My meal was good. The flounder and crab was delicious. The potatoes and Rockefeller spinach lacked seasoning. The salad was good but a bit overdressed. The creme brule was delicious. There was way too much whipped cream on the key lime pie but it tasted extraordinary. Our server Stephanie H was truly wonderful.

This was a fun place to go for a date night. The food was really tasty. Overall would recommend for a fun occasion. That being said I typically only write reviews when I have something positive to say but we just had an odd experience that I wanted to share so others are aware because we were not. We did get charged for soft drink refills and were not told they would cost money. The soda itself was 4.50 and then we got charged .50 for a refill. Granted, we drank more than two sodas but it would have been nice if our waitress had told us we would be charged for that or their policy on refills. Also, the refills were not brought in new cups, the waitress would just top off my cup so I’m not sure how they were quantifying what to charge for the refill. It just felt very cheap for an upscale place to charge extra on sodas when the soda was already almost 5$ We spent 120$ on dinner for two, so it is not the money I’m concerned about, but just felt odd considering we were not being cheap or taking advantage of the refills.

I have been coming here for years. I like that they change up the menu regularly, keeping favorites. Parts of tonight's meal was kind of a miss (the vegetable side was a miss visually and taste wise). The strawberry truffle was pleasant. The service was good - just the right amount of attention. They have a nice outdoor seating area, which is lovely at this time of year.

I’ve dined at Margaux’s several times in the past and always had a fantastic experience, so I was surprised by my most recent visit. I ordered the duckling with mashed sweet potatoes and vegetables. The mashed sweet potatoes were delicious, but unfortunately the rest of the dish fell flat — the vegetables were bland and the duck was tough and difficult to chew. That said, the drinks were exceptional and the customer service was top-notch, as always. While this was my first disappointing meal here, I’m hoping it was just an off night, because Margaux’s has been one of my Raleigh favorites for years.

Living nearby, we have been to this shopping center dozens and dozens of times. Therefore, we have seen the outside of this restaurant in passing but never gave it a 2nd thought. Purely by chance, someone suggested that we try it...... it turned out to be a pleasant surprise! The decor is interesting: there is a bicycle hanging upside down from the ceiling, a large fish tank with really big "goldfish" swimming around, a rocket ship suspended from the ceiling, different pieces of knight's armor on the wall, a fireplace, and other diverse objects. It makes for a nice feel. There is also a full bar. Adding to the appeal is the name of the restaurant, obviously a reference to the facility's French background (French words are sprinkled around on the menu as well). The address posted above the entryway to the restaurant, 8111-111, is cute. We ordered the filet mignon, mahi mahi, a side order of French fries, and a chocolate sundae for dessert (for the 9-year-old in our group). The fish was delicious as was the sundae. Prices are relatively high, though not bad for what you receive. The service was overall very good (except for one pesky busboy who constantly tried to pick up our dishes, with which we had not yet finished). As an added treat, on the way out the door we noticed that they offer postcards of the restaurant, a nice touch!

First time coming here! The food was fantastic! The menu was very well thought out and I love the fact that they change menus daily yet have staples that are forever and have been in business for 32 years! Our waitress was very knowledgeable and kind! Could not recommend the restaurant enough! We had Halibut and Lamb loved it and the best Calamari we ever had!
