    Margaux was a fantastic choice for our girlfriend weekend getaway. The restaurant is conveniently located, beautiful design. We had a super attentive waitress, she helped us narrow down the menu and select delightful dishes that we were able to share and generously added free mint and chocolate chips gelato to share as well! We had a wonderful time and meal, we will definitely be back!
