We were there with a large party, and the service was friendly, efficient, and impressively quick. I started with my favorite drink--a dirty martini with blue cheese stuffed olives--and it was perfect. We also ordered the shrimp scampi flatbread to share, and it was absolutely delicious with great flavor. For my entrée, I had the short rib, which was cooked perfectly--tender, flavorful, and not overly salty. In fact, that was something our entire table commented on. Everything was well-seasoned without being too salty, and everyone in our group was very impressed with their meals. The only downside was parking. It was a bit difficult to find a spot, but there appeared to be a private party or event going on, so that likely contributed to the crowded lot. Overall, Nosh delivered excellent food, great service, and a wonderful atmosphere. I would definitely come back and highly recommend it.

The drinks were good, and the salmon was delicious definitely the highlight of the meal! The buffalo chicken egg rolls were just okay for me, but they didn't take away from the overall experience. Our waitress was extremely friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout the meal. The ambiance had a cozy, romantic vibe, making it a nice spot for a date night or a relaxed evening out. We spent about $120 for two drinks, an appetizer, and an entrée, which felt reasonable for the overall experience. I'd definitely return for the salmon and the great service.

Of course, we had to order some of our old favorites the bacon-wrapped dates, garlic shrimp, chorizo, and skewers and everything was just as delicious as I remembered. The red sangria has always been my go-to here, especially with all the fruit in it, and it was just as good as it used to be.

I chose ricotta cavatelli bolognese as my entree.It was rich and meaty and silky - something I'd definitely order again. I also tried my sister's autumn pizette, one of the specials. Thin crisp crust, thinly sliced squas, sausage, cheese and a drizzle of fig glaze. A perfectly composed fall dish. Everyone else enjoyed their meals (spaghetti & meatballs, veal parm, chicken française, and spaghetti with seafood.) We shared two desserts - tiramisu was just as I like it, moist but not wet with all the flavors melding into something greater than their individual parts. The tricolor cake was a slice of rainbow cookie, dense and decadent. Our server Michaela was charming and efficient. The atmosphere was sophisticated yet relaxed. Overall, a five star experience.

The food came out quick and was hot. One of the meals we ordered to split and they served us with it already split on 2 separate plates. They had a creative drink menu and had many creative food options. As I'm not a huge fan or red sauce, I was happy to see that I could get any of their meals with the vodka sauce. The fried gnocchi with the truffle sauce was so good we will definitely be back again. The chicken had a light breading that didn't take away from the taste of the meal. There is street parking and a shared lot in the back. It was a wonderful experience and meal and we will be back soon!

Nothing better than knowing the source! A++++ on sourcing local fresh products and engaging customers! Way to show you are passionate and dedicated to providing the best experience! We had fried olives, quite good and unique! Served in a Martini glass with some dipping sauce. A must try! A great accompaniment to one of their craft martinis! We also had the spicy tuna app. That was very good as well. Beautifully plated, flavorful and Asian-Fusion style. Recommended! We split a classic French Dip Sandwich, The bread was perfect! No skipping there! Classic French Baguette, slightly crispy crunch and perfect interior to soak up the right amount of the French Dip without becoming soggy! It also has horse radish dipping sauce on the side! Mmmmm! It had caramelized onions beautifully sliced slow cooked flavorful rib eye! All the right flavors! Probably one of the best French Dips around! Oh I gotta mention the thick crinkle cut chips! So many places fumble by putting just any commercially available fries or starch on the side of the plate. No fumbles at Magnolias! Seems they hand cut thick crinkle cut chips and fried them perfectly so the outside was crisp and the thick inside was soft and tender! Perfect!!! My Martini was a "Caprese Martini". Mozzarella fat washed, with mild olive oil and Basil flavors. Made right in front of us! Served chilled! Garnished with fresh mozzarella, basil, and tomato! Um perfect! Oh, forgot to mention, they have a super price fix lunch menu! Hard to beat! We will return again and again!

After Nearly 20 Years, We Will Never Return…read more My husband and I have been loyal Tellers customers for nearly 20 years. We hosted our engagement party here in 2007, renting out the entire restaurant, and have celebrated countless anniversaries, holidays, and special occasions here. It was always one of our favorite restaurants. Unfortunately, something has changed dramatically. Last week, we visited for the advertised $29 Power Lunch, which explicitly promises two courses in 35 minutes or less. Instead, we waited approximately TWO HOURS for our entrées. The bar was moderately busy, yet one overwhelmed bartender was responsible for multiple tables, bar patrons, and preparing drinks for the dining room. Service was painfully slow from start to finish. When my Chicken Milanese finally arrived, it was an unappealing, approximately two-inch-thick piece of chicken, nothing resembling a traditionally thin, pounded Milanese cutlet. When I questioned it, I was met with attitude rather than an apology or offer to correct the dish. But the manager's behavior was the most appalling part. When I mentioned the two-hour wait and the advertised 35-minute lunch, he repeatedly insisted the menu said NOTHING about 35 minutes, speaking to me with an incredibly condescending attitude. I pulled up Tellers' own menu on my phone and showed him the exact wording. His response? Essentially, "OK, whatever. You don't have to pay anything." No apology. No acknowledgment that he was wrong. Just complete arrogance and dismissal. I wasn't looking for a free meal. I was looking for a GOOD meal and respectful service, both of which I was more than willing to pay for. After nearly two hours, I had barely eaten, couldn't eat my entrée, and was now nearly late picking up my children. The bartender clearly needed more support, but neither her attitude nor the manager's behavior was acceptable. His conduct was particularly disgraceful for someone in hospitality. We have spent thousands of dollars at Tellers over the years and have also been regular customers at H2O and Prime, where we've celebrated annual family traditions. Unfortunately, this experience has left us unwilling to return to any of them. Restaurants can recover from slow service or a disappointing dish. What is much harder to excuse is a manager who treats longtime customers with contempt, denies his own menu's promises, and refuses to acknowledge being wrong even when shown proof. After nearly 20 years of loyalty, Tellers has lost our business. Truly disappointing.

I wanted to give 4 and a half stars but couldn't…read more This spot was a recommendation from a vendor, who took co-workers there for lunch. I called 2 days in advance to see if it was possible to get a table for 3 on a Saturday night for a 50th birthday dinner. I knew the chances were slim but I had to try. The girl who answered the phone (Amy), said they had seating on Friday night, Saturday was booked. So I took the reservation, not knowing much about the place. After reading reviews in different places, I had learned that they have a DJ on Friday nights. I was looking for a quieter type of dinner so I called back to inquire. The 2nd person (Evelyn) confirmed that they have a DJ that usually starts at 730pm on Friday nights. After a short chat, she changed my reservation to an earlier time so we could enjoy our meal without feeling like we're in the club! ;-) Both gals were patient and kind with our first timer questions. We arrived a little earlier than our reserved time (close to 6pm) and the parking lot had lots of open spaces. We parked and we were greeted by a nice woman who looked happy that we arrived early. We had planned to sit and wait, being that it was a Friday. But we were led to a table right away by a gentleman who looked to be a manager? He didn't say anything but we later saw him walking the room delegating, so to speak. Our 4 seater table was smack dab in the middle of a huge, high ceiling, open concept room that was filled with very long banquet tables. Each table was set for what looked like celebrations. There were a few other smaller tables. Parties were happening at some of the long tables and some of the smaller tables were filled with families that had kids. It was a bit loud but tolerable. We could hear one another speak just fine. Our waitress Alisha came over after a bit to greet us. She took drink orders as we explained it was out 1st time there and we were celebrating a 50th birthday. She was very busy handling one of the larger tables next to us, but we were never ignored. On the table was an open glass bottle of filtered water that was not very chilled. We poured ourselves and it was refilled without us asking by runners. Also on the table was seasoned olive oil for dipping bread. I didn't like that it was already there when we sat down, exposed to the air for who knows how long. But.....all was forgiven when the basket of warm bread came out. It was some of THE best table bread I have ever had. Alisha said it was their pizza dough. I could have eaten that all night and been satisfied. We had to stop ourselves! We each looked over the menu for a bit and ordered just entrees because of the bread! - One order of Ossobuco off the specials menu that came with paparadelle in a brown gravy like sauce. - One order of Filet of Sole Oreganata & Shrimp over sautéed spinach off the regular menu. (Both entrees came with a salad, choice of garden or caesar. The garden salad comes already mixed in their dressing. I ordered the dressing on the side. Good size, spring mix, very fresh). - The tweenager ordered mozzarella sticks appetizer as their dinner. It took a little bit for the food to come out but we were happy about that. We got to admire the greatness of the room. The huge photos on the wall, the birthday celebrations, the food coming and going (including massive amounts of take out orders). It was a well oiled machine and we enjoyed watching it all transpire. The birthday acknowledgement is a thing in itself. We had NO idea but it was all about to go down for us the same way after we ate! First a super loud speaker blasts a birthday song, then the other people dining in the restaurant stop what they're doing and start spinning their napkins in the air, while the wait staff brings over a dessert with a big flaming sparkler in it. How embarrassingly awesome! Which brings us to the dessert. A mint tartufo (Amazing). Also ordered to go, was a tiramisu (it was "ok"). No desserts made in house. By the time we got up to leave, the place was packed and the bar was full. As was the parking lot. Side note: due to Mother's Day being the week before, there was a schedule change and there was no DJ. Food = 4 stars. Piping hot and fresh but no wow factor with flavors. (Except for that bread!) Service = 5 stars Experience/Ambiance = 5 stars Points off for the parking lot being full of huge pot holes. I'm sure that could be fixed with the revenue being brought in. Water was warm-ish, apple juice was over iced and watered down, and bread dipping olive oil was out on the table before we sat down. We had no idea this was a chain of restaurants with other locations! All in all, we look forward to going back again and trying more food!
