Great Date Spot, Romantic, AMAZING FOOD
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

02/02/2008 Posted by nolachitown

I absolutely love Bistro Margot. I've been to this place a few times now and each time, it gets better. On my last visit, I had the duck medallions which far exceeded my expectations. If you have a hearty appetite, try the brie tart as an appetizer and the chocolate mousse/fudge (which is VERY small because it's so rich) for dessert - you'll want to order two or three more to take home. The service is a tad bit slower than you'd like, probably because people are just as impressed with their food and ambiance as I am. I highly suggest you make reservations so you can at least be seated and enjoy a glass of wine while you wait for a menu, etc.

Pros: romantic, close to Second City theatres as a date, great food

Cons: somewhat slow service
