Review Magnolia - White River

We had the privilege of celebrating our first wedding anniversary here, while on holiday in White River. We could not have chosen a better venue. The atmosphere, friendly staff, and the quality and effort put into the meals were just amazing. Thank you Innocent, Marcia, the cheffs, and all the other staff for making our first anniversary an unforgetable event.

Loved our dinner here. Compliments to the chef. The Carb clever burger was delicious and my husband raved about his fillet! Bit pricey, but so worth it. Nice atmosphere and a cute, friendly cat outside!!

The place as a whole is great and the food was fine. I mean I'd recommend it if you happen to be in white river but didn't have anything about it that stood out for me. Ah.

✅Exceptional customer service ✅Delightful food ✅Friendly staff who strive to go the extra mile (Thanks for the awesome videos Silindile) Perfect venue tastefully decorated! Perfect all round...exceptional experience🥰 Highly recommended in the Lowveld❣️

What a little Gem hidden in White River near the Baghdad center. Magnolia has old world charm, tasty meals, and delicious cocktails. The atmosphere is everything you would want for a romantic night out. The manager and waitress were very accommodating, polite and friendly and we dident feel rushed to get in and get out. The service is what you would expect from a 5 star restaurant. Try the 3 hour slow roasted lamp shank in a rich gravy served with mash, roasted carrots and caramelized onions and The chicken espetada with shoestring fries and lime dressing, we also had a well made Pina Colada and a very boozy Cosmopolitan. Dessert looked delicious but the main meals were so filling. Ask about the specials, Magnolia is definitely well known for their seafood selection and they have a full spread of sushi on offer. I don't recommend this as a place to take children and would say the few children that were there slightly ruined it for the adults trying to have a lovely evening. Will definitely be back soon.

We had a wonderful evening at this lovely restaurant. It was fully booked, and still Vuzi our waiter was fantastic. He made our evening even more special. The "no carb" burger was simply just out of this world... a must eat!! Tnx for great hospitality and great food, and Vuzi's charm.

Food was delicious and service was great! Good value for money and a lovely little spot! 10/10 would recommend!!

The food is amazing. They have very friendly staff. Great vibe. Wonderful place to go for a family outing.

Magnolia restaurant is our go-to restaurant. It is very rare where you get a restaurant with good service, friendly staff, a perfect atmosphere and great food. It's truly like finding and catching a unicorn. If, at times, we feel like visiting another restaurant, we just end up being unsatisfied and regretting it at the end. Thank you Magnolia 😊 You make dinning out very special.

Friendly waitresses, lovely atmosphere, relaxed and the deco is amazing with a rustic feel.

Magnolia set-up is authentic and cozy. The food is fresh and excellent. Innocent and Lauren were adorable and really caring. I would definitely come back if I got the opportunity to come back in White River.

We had an outing for the day and discovered this gem. Wow from the food, the staff, the location absolutely stunning. Very delicious food if i could 10/10 for you guys. Will most definitely recommend you. And most surely come back. Keep it up 👌

Food is tasty and well prepared. Service was excellent.

Very well managed. Great style for a small country dorp like White river. Luscious menu. Flavoursome fare well presented.

The food is amazing. Especially the Beef Fillet Carpaccio. The waiters know how to serve you with style and they are very friendly. The Maitre d’ is all over, keeping the waiters on their toes, he is doing a very good job. We had a lovely evening. This place is very romantic and chic. The food is amazing.

Great vibe and good food. I cannot give 5 stars, because my TBone was a little overdone, yet still Delish! We will definitely be going back.

Love this place. Spacey but cosy too, well sheltered from the heat, with fantastic misters when it’s really hot. Food is always spot on, and salads in particular are loaded with proteins. Ordered a takeaway and they happily helped carry it to my car rather than let me make two trips. Also has free WiFi, a bit on the slow side but it works.

Went for lunch. Great atmosphere and awesome food. Definitely recommend

Really good food! Excellent service! Would suggest to anyone to enjoy a evening with them.

Really bad service, waiter forgot about us multiple times, food was cold, waited an hour for dessert I had to walk around looking for the waiter and asked where it was, the kitchen had not prepared it yet... Won't recommended or go back ever.

Had a slependid time there, the pork belly and lamb shank were extremely palatable. The customer service was excellent, Mary the waitress was friendly.

Excellent quality food - service slower than used to, but then this is the lowveld where quality is worth the wait

Just discovered the place and I will come back again.
