The most exceptional food experience in Nashville remains Margot. The well kept secret of locals also boasts the best outside patio in the area. Arrive at 5:00 then they open and it's first come, first serve as they don't take reservations for outdoor

Outstanding food and service. Small wine list but a few fun choices. Portions are very generous! I had the Red Snapper Croquettes and the pasta with lamb meatballs. Wow.

We can't recall a more memorable dining experience. Server Dana was attentive yet leaving us to enjoy each other and our magnificent dinner. Atmosphere was superb cozy and not loud. GM Destin was kind and hospitable. And the food? Every dish, start to finish, had a unique taste. I had a pasta that far outstripped anything we had in Bologna last year! Even the coffee with scrumptious desserts was hot and delicious. If you have one meal in Nashville, make it this wonderful restaurant!

I enjoyed this cozy East Nashville restaurant. Great service, cocktails and food. I especially liked the skate fish special. It was cooked perfectly and melted in my mouth like butter. Recommend!

A staple of the East Nashville dining, one of the OG restaurants on this side of the river. Consistently fabulous for 20+ years. Everything on the menu is good, the ambience is quaint and cozy, and the staff are delightful. I eat here often.

The food was fantastic!! The menu changes each night, and the night we went was spectacular! I had the Bri and Maple Bacon Jam as well as the Bear Creek Flank Steak with Kalamata Olive Tapenade. Service was quick and efficient. The ambiance was lovely and quaint! Great for a date night or time with friends.

This was an amazing experience my husband and I had while we were visiting Nashville. Very impressed with the food, service, and ambience here. Although we didn't have a reservation and the place was packed they accommodated us quickly so we had the pleasure to dine in at Margot.From appetizers to drinks and dessert, everything was exquisite and tasted so good. The portions are the right size for you to enjoy the food not to overeat. Isn't that great?We had housemade focaccia with herb infused oil, greener roots salad, salmon, Shephard's pie and gingerbread cake, and thoroughly enjoyed all.The cocktail I had with gin and pear was pretty delicious with just right amount of sweetness and not syrupy at all.Highly recommend it and will definitely eat here if we visit Nashville again!

Love this place. Menu is excellent and rotates daily. Service is always good and very professional (explaining details of the menu, making insightful recommendations, etc.) Perfect spot for a date night or special occasion.

We had the loveliest dinner at Margot Cafe. Marinated Olives with Orange Greener Roots Lettuces Spaghetti Squash Beet Salad Fish: Grouper Every dish was perfectly prepared with the freshest ingredients. My daughter, who is not a beet eater didn't realize she was fighting me for the very last beet! Each plate was well seasoned and had such good balance. The mocktails were fun, too.
Margot holds the charm of an original food scene pioneer. Embracing its old service station aesthetic, the restaurant seamlessly combines vintage ambiance with consistently impressive dishes. The well-coordinated wait staff adds to the overall experience, making each visit to Margot a delightful journey into culinary excellence.

Dependable excellence every time. Margot is a pioneer in Nashville food scene and is a significant force in helping Nashville establish becoming a food destination. Every dish is beautifully prepared and quality remains high even after decades of serving us
