Ok, but no happy hour 8/28/2008

I have been there many times before as it is within walking distance of my house, and it has always been pleasant enough. However, a friend and I went there today specifically for the happy hour as we got off of work early - we were told that they do not now nor have they ever had a happy hour. Huh? more

Awesome atmosphere...good service...food just ehh 7/26/2008

I went to Magnolia with some friends for my Birthday a few weeks ago. The only other time I'd been there was about 2 years prior and I remembered it being good. It has enough reviews, so I'll keep this short. Ambiance was great, lots of trendy Hollywood, drinks were well-made, and the hostess and our server were both terrific. The only thing is that I felt we were a bit rushed, not by the server directly, but the entrees came immediately after the apps were finished. and 8 people with drinks, 3 courses only spent 70 minutes sitting down, I was slightly bummed about that. But the food...was just eh. It wasn't bad. Presentation gets a C, plates and bowls are ugly and look like they are from some 80's home kitchen. The steak I ordered wasn't super. Cooked properly, but there was no pizzazz to make me go, Wow. Other guests echoed my sentiments. Vegetable consisted of some tiny 1 piece of green thing which wasn't good. I probably wouldn't go back. For the price, there are much better restaurants in Hollywood. Pros: Great service, no waiting even when it was packed Cons: Food just not great more

Such a great place! 6/13/2008

I have to say that I was a little hesitant to go to a restaurant near Arclight on the weekend a big movie opened. I went with a friend, and yes we were going to see the movie, and we had such a fantastic time. Friday night and the place was packed! We were sat quickly considering how busy it was and started off with some delicious cocktails that our server recommended. I had the special Cosmo with white cranberry juice and apricot and my friend had a pomegranate mojito. Great choices. We had some yummy mac and cheese to share and then I had the Mahi-Mahi special which they told me was going on the menu soon. Good thing 'cause I'll be back for more! My friend had the skirt steak which she said was delicious too (I can't say for sure, I don't eat red meat). Anyways, like I said it was super busy and our server was helpful and nice and the food was fantastic. I'll definitely be back! Pros: great cocktails, friendly staff, tasty food Cons: It's busy, so you may have to wait for a table more

Boring Food, Recycled Iced Tea and Despondant Service 5/28/2008

I want this place to be good--the location is great, right down from Arclight and the vibe is cool bar/lounge/restaurant. But the food is haphazzrd, poorly executed and downright boring. It's as if you made it at home, buying the cheapest ingredients and putting little effort into the preparation. Our turkey burger was mostly a non-identifiable, yet tasteless, filler. Our chicken sandwich nearly choked my friend with its dry character and limp personality. As for service, we never saw her again after she dropped the food off and disappeared. She wasn't rude, she just could care less about her job, us and making our lunch something more memorable than Mc Donald's down the street. We were also charged for something that was sent back because it had not completed growing. Also, we had to stand up, act as if we we leaving to get her attention to bring us the check. As we left we witnessed one waiter wipe his nose on his hand and another recycle two iced teas back into the pitcher (can you do that?). This magnolia does not smell like a flower. more

Check the prices!! 4/16/2008

I took a client here for lunch on the advice of some coworkers, and the food was admittedly very good. However, beware when ordering things on the menu that are listed at "Market Price!" When I got the check, I was deep in conversation and didn't really look at the total, but when I got home, I realized how extremely expensive that bill was. I looked at the check, and realized that on a menu full of very reasonable salad prices, my one "market price" item (the lobster salad) was charged at more than double the next most expensive item on the list! I started feeling like I got hosed, so I called the restaurant an hour later and asked how much the lobster salad was that day (the same day). Four dollars cheaper! Granted, still expensive either way, but there's no excuse to charge more than that set rate. Be forewarned-the food is delicious, but check how much they plan to make you pay when it's done! more

A Great Spot! 2/15/2008

Magnolia is a great spot to take a date! Food is very good and yet reasonably priced. Fine drink selections as well. My girlfriend had an amazing chocolate martini with a new vodka called Alchemia. Definitely worth hitting up if you're in Hollywood more

Hip place with fun food. 2/11/2008

I tried this restaurant last night and was very satisfied. The ambiance is very low key and comfortable and the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. The menu is varied but not overwhelming and the prices are reasonable. I got the Organic Vegetable Plate and, aside from the saltiness, really enjoyed it. It was pretty crowded for a Sunday, so it seems like a pretty popular place. I will definitely go back. more
