Magnolia Room Cafeteria

Food was delicious. I came in during lunch rush hour and despite the long line, servers move customers through the line quickly and efficiently. Loved the variety of food items available. The food was fresh and I cook taste that every items from entree to dessert was freshly made from scratch. Would recommend visiting for family dinner night or a business meeting. Highly recommend. My meal consisted of 1 entree, 3 sides, and two deserts for under $35.

Food was delicious, space was clean, everyone looked well kept, we’re wearing gloves, hairnets and etc. If I can give one recommendation. It would be to always put napkins at the table for the guest that sit in and eat we did have to ask. The server was extremely kind however she was too busy for us to have to sit and wait for napkins. Definitely will return again. This was our first visit and look forward to referring them to others.

Trout Almondine was second to none anywhere. Portions are great and food is hot, fresh, and prepared with care. Love this place! It is what the south used to be known for… gotta keep this place going!

I always check the restroom.. believing if they're clean then they more than likely have a clean kitchen too. And it was very clean While selecting the smothered pork chop dish. that came with rice - the server was very heavy handed with the gravy as I and three (3) others were saying stop , but she kept dipping. SMH I thought let's see how this taste, but it was too soupy with no favor. Our waitress was nice enough to take it away and replaced with liver and onion. Unfortunately, the food overall wasn't seasoned and or just bland in taste. The mac n cheese was more mac and still searching for the cheese?? And the sweet potato pie was missing the "sweet". While I wish success to this restaurant: The location seemed to have a reasonable amount of customers eating there, but it's not one I would go out of my way to go to. Would recommend they have tasters and or impartial people to sample their menu and do better with their seasonings. Here's to better tomorrows..

Imagine The Magnolia Cafe, a local gem nestled in the heart of Atlanta, a place where the aroma of slow-cooked collard greens and freshly baked cornbread perpetually fills the air. It's more than just a restaurant; it's a culinary institution where generations have gathered to share meals and memories. Their fried chicken, much like the one pictured, would be legendary – perfectly seasoned, with a shatteringly crisp skin and juicy meat, a testament to time-honored family recipes. The green beans, simmered to tender perfection with a hint of smoky ham hock, and the fried okra, lightly breaded and fried to a delightful crisp, would be the embodiment of Southern hospitality on a plate. But it's in the sweet, comforting embrace of their side dishes and desserts where The Magnolia Cafe truly shines. Their sweet potato casserole, rich and creamy with just the right amount of spice, topped with melted butter, is likely the kind of dish that evokes nostalgic feelings of grandmother's kitchen. And the pie – whether it's a luscious pecan pie, bursting with nutty sweetness, or a velvety sweet potato pie, creamy and fragrant – would be the perfect conclusion to a meal that nourishes both body and spirit. The Magnolia Cafe isn't just about the food; it's about the feeling. It's the warmth of a welcoming smile, the friendly chatter of neighbors catching up, and the shared appreciation for food that's been cooked with love and tradition. It's a place where every dish tells a story, every bite is a memory, and every meal leaves you feeling not just full, but truly comforted and connected to the rich culinary heritage of the South. That's how a place like The Magnolia Cafe becomes an indispensable part of the community, a beloved sanctuary for soul food and Southern charm.

The food was very good. I had the Turkey wing, cabbage and turnips. Everything was very fresh and the server Tanesha was wonderful. She was very attentive and always checking on me. I’ll be back. I really loved that guys have Sugar free options for dessert.

The fried catfish melted in my mouth!! The helpings were quite large and delicious. The breading on both the fish and the quarter chicken was very light and tasty. We were quite pleased with the options of entrees and sides. The Magnolia Room is highly recommended for its delicious food and relaxing atmosphere.
