Margaux - Mobile

We didn't know what to expect from this restaurant. we dressed (I wore a dress, hubby wore a pullover and khakis) because of the prizes. But they don't have to. I expected it to be a “fancy”, low light, romantic, but it was kind of like a longhorns. there was live entertainment that was very nice. the other guests in the restaurant were very loud. we ordered drinks, a starter and two entrees. we ordered the holiday cosmo and blueberry jalapeño mojito. both drinks were great and you could taste the alcohol. we ordered the crawfish corn beignets and they were more like hushpuppies, but very good! for our entrees we ordered the creole seafood bucatini and monté au beer chicken. both tasted amazing and were worth a big for the price! Overall I hope that this restaurant especially, as this location seems cursed!

We went on Thursday night at 6 PM. The restaurant wasn't crowded. Two of us had the creole seafood pasta and two had the ribeye. Our waiter, Mason, seemed to have trouble remembering things because we had to remind him several times about various parts of our orders. He also used profanity while attending our table. Our food came out lukewarm at best. While the pasta dish had a flavorful sauce, it was overpowered by the amount and type of pasta it was served on, and the seafood was scarce. However, had the dish not had the amount of pasta, it would have at best been an appetizer sold at an entree price. The steaks were nothing special, especially for a $36 price tag. My takeaway was, just because you price the menu high it doesn't make the food good. It's a one and done for me and my group.

All right. the ambiente is beautiful. the service was okay. crawfish and corn beignet should be called hushpuppies. fish of the day season good. the rest was just okay.

That was delicious. it could have been hotter in the temperature. eating was very tasteful. we had an excellent waiter john . he has always checked us to make sure we are happy. the only con was that we were not able to try out the oysters because the oyster opener was broken, but we tried the fish diving and it was amazing!

First time for this restaurant. We were the second of two tables. Server was nice but drinks came well after first appetizer even though drinks were ordered first. Food was good but not worthy of the price.
