The food was good, but not amazing. I expected more at this price point. Our waiter was knowledgeable about food allergies and cross contamination. Wait staff was very professional. Definitely a great fine dinning vibe, but a little loud.

It's a very nice restaurant, fancy building and fancy furniture. The service is great, very kind, very alert. The food, don't miss understand me, is good, it tastes very good, but for me, too expensive for what is served.

Came here for the first time on Valentine’s day and had the absolute best experience! Seth was our waiter and he was so kind! He was also very knowledgeable about the menu and gave fantastic recommendations! We got the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer and my boyfriend and I both agreed it was the best thing we have ever ordered from any restaurant ever! Everything about this place was 10/10. Highly recommend if you get the chance to eat here!!! Thank you again, Seth, for making our experience here remarkable!

We didn't get a chance to try this place the last time we were in town, but we made sure it was on our list this time. It did not disappoint! Leah, our server, was so knowledgeable about the menu and offered suggestions. She had such a charming personality! The food was absolutely delicious!! From the appetizers, the main courses and the deserts were out of this world! Magnolias will be added to our list to visit again! The pecan pie was a favorite! The fried mac and cheese was addictive! The chocolate mousse was my favorite - light and decadent! If you've never been here, try it out it! I promise you will want to return!

3 of us had our first meal at Magnolias. We started with fried chicken livers and brussel sprouts, both of which were good. The ceasar salad and house salad were fine. My husband had the catch of the day, Grouper, with sweet pea risotto and he said it was wonderful. I had heard good things about the fried chicken, so that is what I ordered. My collards and corn were good, the mashed potatoes and gravy tasted like instant and, although the chicken breading was good, the chicken itself was very dry. My son loves shrimp and grits, so that is what he ordered. He said the grits and sausage were good, but the shrimp tasted like popcorn size frozen. The gravy did not taste homemade and there was so much gravy over the grits the dish looked like soup. The ladies at the reception desk were all very friendly and accomodating with regard to seating preference. Our waiter, Gabe, was friendly and terrific as were the other wait staff who delivered and peppered our food.

I love this restaurant! From the moment you walk in the door, it is all beauty. The staff is so welcoming and attentive. I had the best fried chicken of my life and the mashed potatoes, creamed corn, turnip greens and biscuits were unbelievable. And the gravy!!! The fried chicken is boneless, but has the flavor of chicken on the bone. They have fun cocktails and a great wine list. If you are looking for perfect comfort food, this is it. Highly recommend. Be sure to make a reservation.
Had the best food and fun At Magnolia’s, celebrating my 55th bday.

Come with an empty belly and a handful of friends, because you will want to try everything on the menu. Everything we ordered was incredible, but I’ll be thinking of the fried green tomatoes, gumbo, and pecan pie for a long time. Truly a special dining experience, couldn’t recommend a better place for southern food while in Charleston.

Had a business dinner here and every appetizer, dish, and dessert we ate here was perfect and delicious! My colleagues enjoyed several seafood appetizers and dishes. The fried chicken entrée I had was perfectly cooked, crispy, and amazing! We all agreed the best dessert was the pecan pie à la mode.

If there was good management then they would actually care enough to comp your unsatisfactory service & food. You’re not fine dining if you straight up don’t care about guests experience. Nobody’s paying $200 for mid food and mid service. They are paying for an experience. I had $28 dish of flavorless vegetables, Cross contaminated entrées i couldn’t eat and still had to pay for? Lame.
