Our server was the best! I was feeding our baby so she helped my son cut his waffle!
If you're a fan of old school diner breakfast or lunch, don't skip Magnolia Diner. Their breakfast is everything you expect from an old fashioned diner. Biscuits are near perfect, eggs cooked expertly and tons of options to choose from. Would love to see a different coffee being served. Tastes like Folgers, which is tolerable, but just barely. Of course, I'm sure regular customers would complain if they switched. Service is great and we love the old Hollywood movie posters and themes.
Came for breakfast. Great service. Food came out quickly. Didn't wait to wait for refills of drinks. Food was delicious.
Was working in the area and decided to try this place out. Home style comfort food would be the best way to describe it. Service was excellent drink cup stayed full even offered Togo cup. Food was great, hot and fresh. The fried okra was the best I've ever had in my opinion. Tasted like they made it from fresh okra ,not frozen will be back up there again this week an will definitely stop back by. Keep up the great work.
My family had an excellent breakfast here! Our waitress Crystal was so sweet and gracious and made our sit down an all around good time. We just loved the atmosphere here enjoying our morning as a family with delicious food and staff made us feel welcomed!
I just moved to town not too long ago and honestly this is the really the only diner that ive tried and so far I love it. The staff is super friendly. There's a waiter named Shawn (sorry if I spelled it wrong) he knows how to keep a Cup of coffee going let me tell you, you'd never have to ask for more he just knows when it's time. Any way I love this place. Cute little diner vibes with the best French toast lemme tell ya. And not to mention not very expensive either
First time I've come to this restaurant. Outstanding all the way around. I went for breakfast. Great food and all of the staff are great and very friendly!!! Small town feel.
Could of had better service. Most of the workers were having conversations with each other or playing on their phones. Also kinda pricey. Could have more business but definitely needs some updates interior wise and staff needs updates or better understanding of paying attention to the customers they're serving. Also it was just myself and my daughter and the price was almost $45.00 which was a tad overpriced. I'm sry 3.00 a drink plus more money each refill. Good food but definitely pricey.
We had a great meal here. I ordered the BLT with fries and it was excellent. My husband had the chicken fried steak and really enjoyed it as well. Both meals were fresh and much better than fast food. The service was also prompt and courteous. We’d definitely come back.
Magnolia Diner is a cozy, home-style diner in Todd Mission, Texas, and a great place to stop for breakfast, especially if you're heading to the Texas Renaissance Festival. We were seated quickly, and our waitress was attentive and friendly. The food was fresh, filling, and surprisingly affordable. One thing I really appreciated was the value. Our entrees included extras such as biscuits, hash browns, and multiple breakfast meats without the constant upcharges that have become common at many restaurants. You definitely leave feeling satisfied. One of the most unique aspects of the diner is its Hollywood theme. The walls are covered with movie posters and murals celebrating classic films, creating a fun and nostalgic atmosphere. The building itself shows its age and could use some updating, but the friendly service, generous portions, reasonable prices, and quality of the food more than make up for it. In many ways, the charm of the place is part of the experience. I'm planning to attend the Renaissance Festival again this year, and I'll definitely be stopping by Magnolia Diner for another breakfast.
