Since I live so close to this diner I was super excited to have a local restaurant to eat when we don't want to travel far but have someone cook for us :)
The atmosphere is quaint and small which gives you a personal feel when you walk in. The food (breakfast lunch and dinner) is below the quality I would have expected it to be. Wait staff appear friendly but slightly slow on the drink refills. The prices of the meals are a little high in price compared to the lackluster plating and food that comes out which was a big shocker to me. One would expect to see a small town diner to have cheap meals but extremely good food -- in this case it's opposite.
I don't mind going for breakfast as their food is tasty. Dinner and Lunch are sub-par. As others have stated, there seems to be a following of seniors to the place.
We dined at Magnolias on July 27, 2013t. The broiled seafood plate was fair except for the cod fish on the plate. It was awful and tasted like ammonia. We notified the friendly waiter. He said the manager would stop by and he never did. We were charged for this but did not want it for free but just a courtesy from the manager who failed to take care of the customer and knew the fish was awful to begin with that is why he did not see us. I will not dine there again so beware and do not order fish at this restaurant. And do not expect to see the manager for any complaints. They avoid you like the plague. And this was my birthday dinner so this was not a good dinner at all.
