Outstanding! My first time and was not disappointed. The staff were lovely, and the food delicious. We enjoyed the New Years menu and couple of items that stand out were the duck, the beef, and the deconstructed apple crisp. I highly recommend.

We were there for a birthday & asked for a particular table showing a view we loved and we got it. Food was incredibly good, the service was excellent, even taking a picture of us, and the restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas. The only down side was an especially loud-voiced, noisy party right beside us that limited our conversation but that was not the restaurants fault. Overall 5 stars. We will definitely go back.

I am very fussy about my dining experiences. It has to be value for money while also satisfying my need for service quality and gorgeous food. Wow! Courtney room is my new favorite restaurant. The room is beautiful and the service friendly and oh so professional. The food is beautiful and focused on local sourcing. That crab ravioli and focaccia bread. I could eat it every day. So well done! Magnolia Hotel is a lovely place to stay to enjoy a complete night out.
