I have spent many, many occasions at the Mill. Being Christmas Eve with the anticipation of a full house, we were seated in the dreaded back room. Zero personality. Drafty. Badly designed, featuring long group tables in an otherwise lovely restaurant. (And we were a mere party of three). There is a horizontal mirror over the fireplace at least ten feet off the ground. A decorating afterthought? Many local photos are featured elsewhere so perhaps an original oil above the mantle would be better suited since no one could gaze in that mirror. I should have followed my own advice and stuck to the winning classics - shrimp and grits, burgers and flatbread pizzas. Opted instead for the fish tacos. Big mistake. The fried fish was off putting in taste. The guacamole was sparse with no discernible sauce to enhance. The fries however are always good. The sangria drink was not - cloyingly sweet. Wish we had simply sat at the empty bar, munched on starters and shared a bottle of wine. Will.know better next time.

Lovely Christmas atmosphere. Staff and food are lovely. The table was really beat up and in poor shape. For such an upscale place it seems like they could have put a tablecloth over it at least to cover its wear. Reminded me of an old diner table.

Good vibe when we come to see the Host. Hard to find parking spot. The taste of the food is good EXCEPT the entree not hot enough. Only appetizer that the food is right temperature. Seems lack of helper or short staff, since takes a while the server come to take our entree order and dessert. The dessert is great, love their blackberry sorbet, some of us order vanilla cream bulee, chocolate chip cookie. Maybe I'll give another try.

I love Magnolia. Been going for over 5 years. However the prices lately have been shooting up and the quality going down. I absolutely love the Grilled Shrimp Cobb and Caesar Tenderloin Salad but the last 3 times I’ve ordered it, the presentation and portion has been mediocre at best. For salads that range from $24 to $28 dollars it’s so disappointing to see the quality of the toppings and presentation go down. Last night my salad looked like it came from the end of the line salad bar scrapings. And this has happened over the last 3 times we’ve eaten there. Will be looking elsewhere for a new go-to restaurant sadly.

This was the third time going to Magnolias and our least favorite. It seems as though the chef has changed because the beef pasta doesn’t taste the same. It missed the flavor it used to have. And for the amount of pasta I don’t understand how the price makes sense. The serving size has decreased too. For our anniversary they brought out the sign saying happy birthday even though I told them it was our anniversary. I hate to give it this review but I expected better with the food.
