    Interior Wall when you walk in on the Right...  Robert Moses Bridge

    Went here on a Sunday night for drinks after having dinner elsewhere. Got there probably 10:45 ...place was pretty busy w/people drinking & some eating burgers & wings. Bartender was GREAT!! OUR 1st time there since redone....gorgeous!!!! Great night there until probably 1:30? Definitely will be back & hopefully to try food....we had draft beers & a few drinks....bartender made a cocktail for one friend he never heard of but friend told him what was in it & tried it out...it was pretty close he said 9 out of 10 so I'd say a win win!!

    24 wings on the football menu

    Great spot in this area. Bartenders are friendly and well versed on cocktails, beer, and the food menu. Always has a nice atmosphere...live music, friendly locals, great food, and different spots to sit make this an awesome go to. And their wings are DEFINITELY the BEST in town. Crispy, just the right amount of sauce, and big too...way better wings here than at other spots in the area known for their wings...I've had a few other items from the menu and they have all been really good also. The reason they are only at 3 stars instead of 4 is because we waited a while for our wings and then the kitchen put the wrong sauce on them so they had to remake them...so now we had to wait even longer and it was just an "oh, sorry"...I think if you're running a kitchen and make a mistake where someone is waiting a ridiculously long time for something to be remade they should offer a drink, or discount the food...something...but nothing was offered so that's where I felt they lack a bit.

    establishment OK, I can't even begin to tell you when an…read moreamazing experience we had when we came to your establishment today. The ditch in your Bayshore location as me and my bride. Robin entered the building it's Memorial Day and there was just a three top there so when we walked in, Joe was attending to the people at his top but when he saw us, he expertly expedite himself from them to come and greet us and welcome us to your establishment top shelf automatically we sat down. We were waiting for another couple to join us. We had a nice conversation with him and he gave us drinks at the bar explained we're waiting for another couple to come. He said no problem when they get there we'll take it through table and that's what he did. The other couple of rides we sent the table. Wonderful service came up spoke to us very very attentive went over the menu with us gave the specials was absolutely incredible. Then I realize that he was all alone in the bar, not only was attending to us. He was only also attending to the other top plus, he was the bartender and the waiter and whoever was working in the back though your kitchen also wonderful then the place lit up there was a table of four came in another table of two and another top of two. This kid didn't even flinch. Continue to take care of every one of us very attentive and then the doors open up he had about 25 people altogether came in and came up to the bar. This kid did not flinch. He took care of them still attentive to us taking care of that baby at the bar, he put a high chair from this kid, amazingly took care of the whole bar and the dining room by himself. I am saying this to you because I am I am was previously a borrower in many many years I own two bus I have never seen one guy take care of a place of drinks, bar table tops food, greetings hospitality. You have a gem with this guy Joe I offered to help him as much as I could cause I saw that you know it was just overwhelming. He said I will take care of everything as his quote to me. I got you I said if you need me, I'm right here because I've seen it before this kid took care of a full bar too deep I might say also six tables of average three to table and just made your place run amazing so my advice is this when you find the guy like Joe you hold onto this kid like Grimm death and don't let go employees like a guy like Joe a few and far between you would do your company and yourself a service to make sure that you hold onto him and make him happy and keep him with you because there was never I've never seen a better ambassador for any place that I've gone to then watching this kid work today again I'm a bar owner. I've been a restaurant business. I'm a chef and I have never seen one kid run a place like that kudos to him. Kudos to you for hiring them and kudos to you if you hold onto it again unbelievable great experience. I will recommend your place. I will recommend to my friends as I had that my friends called to stay today. I will continue to do so as long as you continue to have people like Joe work for you. Great job all around. You got a little hidden gem there and they should make sure people know about it thank you very much. Me and my bride and my friends enjoyed your at your place and it was above and beyond excellent service and experience

    Came with a few friends about a month ago on a weekday evening. When we first arrive, there was…read moreanother table but for the majority of the evening we were the only ones. Our waitress was super nice and ordering was quick and efficient but it took forever to get our food (about an hour) and every single one of our orders were incorrect (either incorrect types of tacos or just missing tacos). My friend who is lactose-intolerant and post-partum ordered a salad and when all the food came out, there was no salad. We had to ask for the salad so it then took even more time for her to get her food. The food itself was fine, but really sullied by the logistical errors. At the end, the odd thing was that the bill had all the correct orders, I guess the kitchen just executed poorly? We then had to tell the waitress to adjust our bill because things were wrong and she tried her best, but I think we were still overbilled and at the end, we just wanted to leave. Hope this was just a one-off night for them.

    First visit to this fairly new restaurant. Was blown away by…read morethe food and the cocktails. We sat at the bar and were very well taken care of. They started us off with complementary pineapple, express cocktails. I'm not a Tequilla fan but this drink was outstanding. I ordered an old fashioned which was made perfectly. To start I got the lamb chops chop they were also tops, for main I went with the bourbon glazed wings. Outstanding ! My girlfriend went with the flank steak which was cooked perfectly. I think o going a new fave !! This restaurant has a nice city vibe to it. Drinks are made to perfection and the food was tops. I can't wait to return. A+++++++++

    Magnolias is a very cool spot with a lot to offer. In addition to a great restaurant and bar area,…read morethey have a spacious outdoor courtyard that gives the place a unique atmosphere. Whether you're looking to grab a drink, share some appetizers, or sit down for dinner, it's a great setting. I visited last week with my family, and the appetizers were definitely the highlight of the meal. We ordered the Magnolia Flatbread, Burrata, and Baked Clams. The flatbread is an absolute must-order, it was outstanding and easily the favorite dish of the night. The burrata and baked clams were also very good. For our entrees, my dad and I both ordered burgers. While they were flavorful, they were unfortunately overcooked. I ordered mine medium and my dad ordered medium-rare, but neither burger had any pink in the center. My wife ordered the Tuna Sliders from the appetizer menu and they weren't what she expected; she said she wouldn't order them again. My mother enjoyed the French Dip and thought it was very good from what I tried. Magnolias serves "cottage fries" instead of traditional French fries. They're essentially thick-cut fried potato slices--more like a hearty potato chip. While it's an interesting twist, I'm a French fry person and personally prefer traditional fries. My wife and I both ordered the truffle cottage fries, and they came out quite soggy, likely from sitting in too much oil. We mentioned it to our waitress, who agreed after seeing them and kindly removed them from the bill. Overall, Magnolias has a great atmosphere, excellent appetizers, and a unique setting that makes it worth visiting. While there were a few issues with some of our entrees and sides, I'd definitely return, especially for drinks and appetizers in the courtyard.
