    Magnolia Blue did not disappoint. The food is amazing but the attentiveness and professionalism of the staff really makes it top tier. Tonight we enjoyed Shrimp Tempura, which was prepared very well. We also enjoyed baby back ribs, with collards, and fries. Ribs were tender and perfectly flavored and the collards were my absolute favorite. The salmon we ordered may have been a little well done for my liking, but the flavor paired with collards and grits were delicious. We finished the evening with tiramisu, creamy and flavorful as well. The dining room was very lively. It did get a little loud where you could not hear conversation across the table, but we still enjoyed our visit.

    Good meal. Three of us had the She-crab soup which was excellent. Two of my sons had burgers, one with blue cheese and one with pimento cheese. They both said they were very good. My other son had salmon with a bourbon glaze which he raved about. My wife enjoyed her Mountain Trout. I had the catfish which was good. The mustard creole sauce wasn’t too exciting and the Cole slaw serving was a little small, but very good. All in all I would say this was a much better meal than the previous two times that we have been here which were meals that were okay but kind of bland.

    We brought out of town guests because we knew the experience would be great and it was. The Salmon, meatloaf, shrimp and grits and the gnocchi were excellent and Lauren, our server, was very attentive and friendly.
