    Breakfast Menu

    Doña Magnolia has just opened with their new and fresh menu and it is absolutely amazing. The full menu isn't available yet, but about 80% of it was! The menu has an eclectic mix of Mexican, Italian, Asian, and French flavors. The arancini has the perfect cheese ratio and the garnish of greens, marinara, and pesto was a wonderful touch. I would order a side of pesto if I could, because it's that delicious. The Rosé Pasta had a wonderful flavor fusion of garlic and marinara, topped with a perfectly blackened and juicy chicken breast. The New York Steak was PERFECTLY cooked to taste and the chimichurri on top was absolutely to die for. This broccoli and squash had the most amazing buttery flavor ever. The service was outstanding, our server was so attentive and polite. Head chef and owner(s) were checking in periodically to make sure that our food was cooked properly and to gain insights on our opinions on flavors, etc. The vibe in here is perfect for quite a few occasions. I would get lunch here with friends, date night dinner, or even just hang out at the bar. There are 2 TV's in the bar area which are super nice if you want to catch a game. Overall, I am so pumped the new owners took over this space. It is very clear that a lot of love and thought went into re-opening this lovely space and I can't wait to see it flourish. 10/10 would recommend and I think everyone needs to check out this new spot and support the new owners!

    Acabo de ir el fin de semana a spokane está como unas dos horas de el lugar donde vivo estaba muy hambrienta y me llamó la atención Doña Magnolia el lugar es espacioso y la decoración muy agradable empezamos con dos aperitivos edamame y arancini la salsa de los edamames estaba deliciosa picante pero muy sabrosa y nunca había comido los arancini son unas bolitas de arroz empanizado se desmoronaban en mi paladar y la combinación de marinada y pesto sauce espolvoreada de queso parmesano también probamos el curry rojo mmm tenía exquisita piña jamás lo había probado así mi mamá es fan de la paella y a ella le encantó el servicio fue muy bueno espero pronto volver estoy emocionada por probar algo más !

    First time we've been here. The menu was really good and different. We got the Arancini appetizer. Which is deep fried risotto balls. The house made pesto that came with them (along with marinara) was to die for. I'm usually not a huge pesto fan, but this was legit! Wish I could take some home! My husband got the Paella. He wasn't a fan of the crispy outside of the rice, and it came with chicken instead of the listed scallops. So he wasn't thrilled about that. I got the Bolognese. It was so good. Loved the noodles. How I wish it was homemade pasta. That would have made it a 10/10 but it was still great, so I'd say an 8/10. We also got a huckleberry margarita. I thought it was really good. Was a bit sweet for my husband. I definitely want to go back to try some more of the menu.

How wrong I was!!! We found this place on Yelp and it looked like a winner...4.7stars and right next to our hotel. We dined on a Saturday night and the place was packed...we got the last open table. I really loved the decorations inside- colorful, festive, and some really neat Dia De Los Muertos styled paintings. Our server was great and went through the menu...lots of selections. I wasn't super hungry so I got 3 street tacos (1 al pastor, 1 carnitas and 1 tinga). My son got an al pastor quesadilla and my wife got pollo tacos. The chips and salsa were good and held us over until the food came. When the food came they also brought out 3 more salsas in squeeze bottles and all of these were great too. All 3 of my street were very flavorful and all incredibly tender. Sometimes chicken and carnitas can be pretty bland but not here...these were exactly what I was looking for. My family loved their food as well and we left wishing we had a Los Habaneros Taqueria back in AZ! When I was paying for our meal at the cashier several people were picking up to go meals and heard we were from AZ visiting and both parties said we found the best spot in Spokane for Mexican food. I don't doubt them for a minute...this was dynamite.

I got the fried chicken taco wjth a hazelnut matcha butter and Gorgonzola. Which was very yummy, then I got the pork belly with an asparagus salsa. Lastly I got two of the birria tacos. Overall the two street tacos were very good, perhaps both an 8/10 but the birria tacos were a little disappointing because their dipping sauce was basically flavorless. And the whole thing desperately needed salt. I ended up ditching the sauce and just using a bottled green sauce which was very yummy. Both my coworkers who also got the birria agreed it was not very good. They stuffed the tacos full of beef tho. The service was a little funky, we came in a big group and she insisted on taking all of our order at the same time and then had us pay separately after we all ordered, that required quite a bit of shuffling around among us 7, a bit confusing. Also, I ordered a soft drink and the bartender handed me a cup that was not full. Very strange. So I asked him to top it off, and his response was "sure, but just so you know, you get free refills" like okay? So because I get free refills you don't fill the cup up? Little strange, my coworker who witnessed it also thought it was weird. Overall it was a good experience and I would definitely come back. Food 4/5 Service 4/5 Atmosphere 5/5

They said it had a nice charred flavor and very tender. I had the taco salad, which was good and had plenty of toppings to make it exciting. It also had a lot of meat so it felt like a full meal. My husband had the Menudo and he devoured it. Highly recommend. Another kid had the street tacos, and although he saw a burrito, walked by that he wished he ordered, he still loved his tacos. We had to drive from the north side of the city to the South Hill to get to this location, but it was worth it. I believe my family has a new favorite restaurant to get delicious Mexican food. The restaurant is small, but that added to the charm. And many tables were full, which means the locals also enjoy this place. Bonus fact: they have different types of salsa for your chips. A mild version and spicy versions. I recommend trying them all.

The food was amazing, the people were great, and I was excited to come back. Yesterday, my girlfriend and I planned a date night and decided to order from here again. Since we have kids, we did pickup. We drove about 25 minutes, then waited another 25 minutes because the line was packed which I didn't mind because the food was that good the first time. But this time? Completely different experience. I ordered a bean burrito with cheese... and it had no beans. Just rice and cheese in a tortilla. Then the nachos, honestly, for $27, this was unacceptable. Dry chips, unmelted cheese, some tomatoes thrown on top, no meat, no beans just thrown together with no care. It looked and tasted like an afterthought. What made it worse is the lack of accountability. I tried calling multiple times last night and again this morning no answer. Calls just ring or don't go through. I even tried calling from different numbers. Nothing. At this point, it's not even about the money it's the principle. Mistakes happen, but not being able to reach anyone or have them make it right is frustrating. I really wanted to keep supporting this place because the first experience was great, but this completely missed the mark. If you go, just be aware the quality and consistency might not be what you expect.

For less than $14 after tax, it's a great price for unlimited tacos. They serve you chips and salsa, 2 tacos, plus refried beans and Mexican rice. You can then request more tacos, beans, and rice when you finish what you have. There was also a bowl of Mexican candy you could take from near the door, which I've never tried before. Chili powder and fruit flavors actually go quite well together. I removed a star from my rating because the service was a bit slow. After I finished my plate, there was a long wait before the server came back so I could ask for more food. I also wanted to try their cheesecake chimichangas, but they were out. Despite this, the service was good and so was the food. I will likely be back.
