    My guests and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Margaux. The menu was diverse enough to cater to light eaters as well as those who wanted heartier fare. The drinks menu also called for Mon alcoholic selections, a good selection of wine and cider, so everyone was accommodated. The service was spot on, there when you needed them but not overly attentive to the point of interrupting conversation. The ambience was buzzy but quiet enough to speak and be heard. We will return!

    Excellent food in very pleasant surroundings. Service very good, and the staff managed my wife's dietary issues very well (particular thanks to our waitress, who was a young lady from Iran.) It was quite expensive, but this might well be 'normal for London'.
