Without Restaurant.com we would never had experienced this restaurant. While we walked there from the ferry at Colman Dock (it's a bit of a walk) it is not in a touristy area. The atmosphere is subdued, enabling ease in conversation. Food was good and nicely presented, but above all, our server, Brandy, made the dinner especially pleasant.

Having looked at the menu and seen the prices and dishes they offered, we expected a higher end establishment. Unfortunately, it looks like an upscale IHOP on the inside: it's all a bunch of vinyl booths. It really is just another hotel restaurant, but the prices do not reflect this.We both ordered the steak frites. Not only was the sauce drowning all the good on the plate, but the medium rare cooked steak was not tender at all. That sauce was delicious though.Overall, for a $35 steak, I could have had much better quality and paid the same price at one of Tom Douglas' places next door or even Daniel's Broiler.While the service was great, I will not be coming back.

Let me start by saying that I am not the easiest grader on the planet by any means. My entire family has made their living at one time or another in the restaurant business so I'm acutely aware of the difference between bad, adequate, and good service. My wife and I talked about our dinner for the rest of the evening and how well balanced every course was. Paired with the excellent service we received from Kelly we will be visiting Brasserie Margaux again when we go to Seattle. We started with the salmon two ways with pita points and both the lox and the salmon mousse were spot on and the presentation was equally lovely. We tried two salads after that and both were perfectly dressed, well proportioned, and the balancing of ingredients was superbly done. My wife is planning on serving French Onion soup next weekend at a dinner party and she was awed by the cup that we shared openly admitting that hers wouldn't be as good but looking forward to trying to create something on the same level. Kelly served each course with the perfect amount of time between them for us to have a leisurely experience and to enjoy the 2009 Pinot she ferreted out for us. We finished the evening with my wife having duck with a side of mashed peartatoes which had exceptional flavor and complimented the duck wonderfully. I had scallops and scampi which were on a bed of delicious mushroom risotto. The only detriment to the entire evening was the family of 14 that came in at the tail end of our meal with 8 children and this is NOT the ideal restaurant for small children and my wife and I chuckled as we heard one boy exclaim he was going to have a hot dog for dinner. I'm sure their gracious server found something suitable but I'd save the hot dog and grill cheese experience for a lesser establishment and take the love of your life for dinner at Brasserie Margaux, Be sure to ask for Kelly and how her new puppies are doing.

The food and the service were excellent. Although it is a bit pricy, the food and service is worth the price. The presentation of the food is also amazing. The restaurant itself is a bit outdated. Its what fine dining was 20 years ago before gastro pubs and good food became popular and trendy. However, it is not "fancy" due to the fact it is connected to a hotel in downtown and there are people there with their suitcases. The restaurant could use an update to the decor and style but in the end we were more than satisfied with our meal which is really what is important!

The food was tasty. However, I ordered the black cod - the portion was so small that I was still hungry after the entrée. My husband's lamb dish was more reasonably portioned, although still small considering its pricing.

My $30 rib-eye steak was about 1/4 fat. It should be almost fatless for the price. Also, would recommend having additional specific happy-hour cocktail drink specials; recommended price either $5 or $6.

We ordered the potato skin appetizer and it was phenomenal. For main dishes my girlfriend got the mushroom ravioli and I got the salmon. Once again, both were phenomenal. Portions were a little smaller than I was used to, but that's pretty much because we do not frequent 'fancy' restaurants. The bread was bottomless, so that helped fill in the gaps.Our service was really great as well. The host was excellent, providing a little conversation while we waited for a window booth. Our server was wonderful, checking in on us often without being overbearing. Even the busser was great and fun to talk to. Great overall experience!

Fantastic food. Service a little slow (only 1 server made it through the snow and ice to get to work). But once they got going, a WONDERFUL experience. Save room for desert (but go across the street and get some chocolate mixed popcorn and a movie at Cinerama across the street). A perfect evening, in the middle of a Seattle-stalling snow/ice storm.

Our party had reservations for dinner, and though we changed the reservation time that afternoon, we were seated promptly upon arrival, as those without reservations waited for a free table. The prix fixe Christmas dinner was marginal at best. All three courses were uninspired and were poorly prepared, especially the Coulibiac of Salmon. This includes all nine dishes served that evening, as our party of 3 had between us every selection offered on the menu. If this had been our first experience at Brasserie Margaux, we would not have returned. in fairness, as it happened, we had dined there the evening before from their a la carte menu and had a wonderful experience.
