It was my first time dining at the Magnolia House with my husband and a great friend. We had the Sunday brunch. The food was fresh and delicious! We enjoyed all of our entrees. I had the Shakura which was excellent! My friend had the Soft Scramble with a cup of fruit.My husband had the scrambled egg sandwich which he liked very much. The coffee was great! Our servers were very attentive! I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant and the chairs were so comfortable! Highly recommend!!
