Wilmington's Dining Scene Welcomes an Authentic French Brasserie

For those of us craving authentic French food with no place to appease our palate, our dreams have been realized. Margaux Restaurant in downtown Wilmington, DE is now accepting reservations.

The downtown dining scene is rapidly expanding its offerings and Margaux is a perfect compliment to all that Market Street has to offer. 

The closest thing to a trip to France (and much less expensive) Margaux features signature cocktails, an authentic French cheese plate, a wide-variety of menu options to please even the pickiest of guests and desserts that make us request seconds.

If you are looking for a place to celebrate, or just want to make an ordinary day a special occasion, visit the newly opened Margaux at 902 N Market Street. Be sure to call ahead to make reservations, limited seating is available, 302-929-7080.

Farmer and The Cow

For good measure, the photo below absolutely had to be shared as well. There is only one word to describe The Farmer and the Cow and that is scrumptious. Craig raved on Yelp, "Great burgers. Awesome atmosphere. Fantastic bourbon selection.  Spectacular service." What more could you ask for? They even have milkshakes themed after breakfast cereals!
