    Prebooked table was ready for us upon arrival and service was excellent from start to finish. Cocktails were priced in line with other bars in the area and the quality was outstanding. Food was next level and felt the price reflected the quality of food. Our server was so attentive friendly and knowledgeable and went above and beyond for us. On receipt it said her name was Aoife and she really was amazing - definitely the best customer service I've ever had.

    Service was class. Venue and ambience class. Food was tasty but overpriced. Portion sizes extremely small. If you're hungry best not go. Would I return? Only if they changed the menu and increased the portion sizes to match the prices. Cathedral Quarter restaurants better value in my opinion. My bill for 2 drinks each, 1 starter, 2 mains and 1 desert was £91.00. Extortionate.

    My lunch experience with a friend at Margots on Saturday January 14th was a bit of a disappointment, on arriving I was immediately aware of the high volume of background music especially as it was so early in the day..I couldn't fault the staff as they were very welcoming but i didn't feel the warmth otherwise infact had to put my coat back on half way through lunch!!...food was mediocre and definitely not impressed with the skinny somewhat soggy chips..unfortunately would not recommend it for food, maybe just an afternoon/evening drink..I'm guessing it didn't help Saturday was a miserable cold and wet day 😐☔def no complaints about the friendly staff.

    Waitresses were really brilliant, friendly and fun! They made a difference. Music was too loud at times and it was difficult to make conversation. However others requested it to be turned down at times. Overall an enjoyable evening.

    Visiting Belfast from Dublin. I found this gem on open table . Lovely little restaurant great atmosphere and music. Food & cocktails where amazing,we had the crispy chicken the crab roll, prawns and goats cheese to share . It was all delicious . Our server aoife was very efficient and professional , very knowledgeable on all the food and cocktails that she recommended to us. I would highly recommend this cool restaurant to anyone that's visiting Belfast. The crispy chicken is so additive. We went back for more ! Conor served us today and was as nice and friendly .

    A quiet start at 6:30 but the bar filled up after 7:30. Not too noisy so great for a catch-up chat with an old friend. Small plates selection ideal for sharing. Barman friendly and engaging without being intrusive. I will be back😀
