About
On the edge of Helmond where the city meets the village of Aarle-Rixtel, Bistro Margaux has built its reputation on a straightforward premise: let the French cooking speak for itself. No elaborate interior design, no unnecessary fanfare — just honest, well-executed cuisine. The approach has earned the restaurant a Gault&Millau score of 12.5/20 as well as a place in the Michelin selection.
Chef Djailany van de Laarschot leads the kitchen with a focus on French cuisine that is both approachable and memorable. The wine list complements this philosophy perfectly — centred on France, compact yet considered, and supplemented by a handwritten selection of special bottles drawn from the cellar.
A Google rating of 4.4 across 48 reviews reflects a kitchen that consistently delivers. Whether you settle in for a leisurely weekend lunch or an evening meal, you can dine inside or take advantage of the outdoor terrace. Reservations are accepted, and are highly recommended for Friday and weekend service.
