I got invited here for dinner and It was good. They do have a bar,but they only serve like less than basic drinks and cocktails. We sat outside, since it not really hot and humid that night. We ordered calamari fritti and buffalo chicken wings for an appetizer, but somehow big dishes came out first. The calamari with fried chips on the side were pretty bad. It was overcooked to the point that the food has bitter taste in it. The wings is heavily coated with sauce..I'm guessing it is like a spicy ketchup, dark red in color and no bleucheseese in it..not carrots and celery sticks. I didnt even bother to taste it. The steamed pompano fish was excellent. Really fresh and cooked perfectly. I love the flavors of kare-kare,but the meat and vegetables are shredded. It looks like pulled barbacoa from mexico. I also love the sizig. Chucks of tasty chicharones and I think that the white stuff is mayo. The house special is the rosemary chicken...nothing really special about it. I guess they used dried rosemary leaves. The avocado shake was bitter and bland,I should have ordered the mango shake instead. There was a friendly cute kitten roaming around the restaurant. I save few chucks of pompano for the kitty. Next time, I will going to try their coffe .it looks really good. I will come back here again and order kare and sizig. Oh,and also will try the grilled seafood.

Had lunch here together with the fam. At first we thought we ordered more than we could handle but turns out, it was just enough Ordered their sisig, the margot chicken, sinigang, seafood vegetable dish, and crispy kare-kare. They were all delicious. If you’re in Koronadal then Margot’s is a must try. They also have a coffee shop within the establishment and will try it out the next time we drop by. 10/10

A new location for an old brand. Now bigger and wider with ample parking area, the new Margot's Grill & Resto is located at Aurora St. Corner Abad Santos St. In Koronadal City, South Cotabato. They specialize in grilled meat and seafood. Their pork barbecue has been popular and favorite among locals. Grilled catfish (hito) and stuffed squid are also among the bestsellers. Other pork cuts and parts as well as chicken parts are among the wide choices of barbecue on stick. Better to order food in advance to avoid the cue at mealtime. Also reserve your table in advance as the place is often full. Still needs to improve services, although staff and crew are courteous and friendly. Food is good and reasonably priced.
