Just arrived in town and wanted a restaurant that wasn't a chain. Not impressed. The service was good, our waitress was very attentive and nice. But the food was not more than mediocre. I ordered the vegetable plate, which came with your choice of four different vegetables. When I asked how the green beans were, the answer I received was, "do you like canned?" I requested the broccoli, fried okra, mashed potatoes, and corn. The broccoli was good, and the fried okra was decent. The corn was obviously canned and over-heated to the point of being mushy. The mashed potatoes must have been instant. The rolls were good. I will say that the spinach artichoke dip was very tasty. My coworker ordered a frozen margarita and it was extremely tangy and sweet. All in all, I was not impressed. At 5:30 pm, there wasn't more than two other tables in the restaurant. read more

Tried chicken fried steak for the first tiem ever because their's is supposed to be the best. It was good indeed! Appetizers, dinner, and service was all good. read more

Good spot for what's available in the area. This place has good food and friendly service. The interior is a bit dated. Magel's has booths and tables good for large or small. They make a homemade ranch which is a must try if you come here. read more

Magel's Grill - Burger. - Salad Near Me - Paris, Texas

I have yet to have a good experience at Magels. Today I had a grilled piece of chicken that was like a rubber chicken and tasted worse. Return and replace. Better. Sure. Good, no! I've had drinks at the bar, watery. The only thing I enjoy here are the rolls. read more

We had a large group go in on Saturday night. They easily accommodated us in a separate room where another large group was already seated. Rebecca was our server and she was great! Personable and kept drinks full and all the orders straight. We had a variety of dishes and everything was delicious. The chicken fried steak was hand-breaded and tender. It was very good. The rolls were so good too! Prices were very reasonable for the portion sizes. We will definitely be back next time we are in town. read more

My fiancé and I are from the Austin area and for my birthday he took me to Paris, Texas. This place has amazing food and service!!! I highly recommend this place to anyone!!! read more

Magel's Grill - Salad Near Me - Paris, Texas

Was just passing through and stopped for lunch. I had the chicken fried steak and my companion had the steak fajitas. Everything was good and the service was fine. Free rolls were good too. Would stop in again if I was in the area. read more

Great, family environment. Awesome waitresses, great hosts. All around a great place for a bite. We were just traveling through and decided to stop here. Definitely will come more often. We ordered Salad with Salmon, Chicken Fried Steak, Chicken strips, and Turkey and Swiss burger. Great food, fast service. read more

I ate the Blackened Cod tonight. It comes on a bed of rice that is chilled...like it just came out of the refrigerator. I was told this is how it is normally served. Not bad, but different. The fish and staff was great and I would eat there again. read more

So I am in town for the week on business and am enjoying the company of my wife. A few locals suggested Magel's Grill. We were greeted with smiles and seated promptly. After quickly receiving our drinks, our order was taken: "I'll have shrimp fajitas with corn tortillas." "Sure. Do you want chicken or beef?" "I would like shrimp?" (Didn't I just say that?) "Oops!" [Wife snickers] [My wife order grilled chicken and some veggies.] My meal: the tortillas were like eating construction paper. Almost zero moisture. Charro beans were basically pinto beans and water. Very bland. Guacamole was about 1.5 Tbsp and quite watery. "So how is your meal so far?" "Well you can have these tortillas back. They are really dry and tough." "Yeah. People complain about that a lot. Would you like flour tortillas?" (Not wanting to take a chance or prolong the pain) "No thanks." My wife commented on her butterflied chicken breast, stating that one have was cooked perfectly and that other half was very dry and overdone. So I walked out with two questions in my mind (1) "If they get that complaint a lot about the corn tortillas, why not fix it instead of shrug their shoulders?" (2) How the heck do you overcook half a chicken breast and perfectly cook the other half? Defective grill? Defective cook? Both?" There are plenty of other places to eat around here so we will likely not return. read more

Decent food but the service was HORRIBLE. We waited 13 minutes for a drink order. They forgot the rolls. Then they never refilled our drinks even after we requested them. The best part was when they tried to charge us for 6 alcoholic beverages that were actually for the party at the table next to us. It would have added another $25 to our bill! When we brought it to their attention they took five of them off but left one beer on there. Our server then disappeared and no one could find her. The bartender could not find her after searching and had to adjust the bill for us. This was our first time in Paris and this restaurant was recommended. When we head through this town again in the future we will not be eating here again. I am very disappointed. read more

I eat in Paris, TX quiet often. I've decided to venture out from my comfort zone. After reading the Yelp reviews, I opted for Magel's Grill and the chicken fried steak. We arrived about 6 pm on a Wednesday afternoon. We were seated in the bar area and the bartender was actually our waiter. We were brought menus and hot rolls. I ordered the chicken fried steak. It was very good. it was thick, crunchy, and spiced just right. I would order it again. The bartender/waiter was attentive and friendly. read more

I'm not super blown away, but it does seem to be one of the nicer places to eat in Paris. I had the chicken friend steak on one occasion and the hot and spicy salad on another. The mashed potatoes were less than stellar and the salad was drowning in dressing, but everything else was totally above par. We will definitely be coming back. read more

This is great for a variety of foods if you have picky love their fried chicken salad and the buffalo chicken salad. Great place to eat! Portions are a bit large for me so I usually share. read more

My husband and I went for an early dinner yesterday. I had the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and broccoli. My husband had the roast beef with mashed potatoes and green beans. Servings were generous and everything tasted great! The desserts of cobbler and bread pudding were very tasty. We are light eaters and brought half of everything home. So now I get to enjoy the leftovers tonight. Our waitress, Chloe, was a real sweetheart. Everything was done in a timely fashion and the price was acceptable. read more

Unfortunately the worst dining experience I ever had in Paris. I was seated in full view of a dirty water mop bucket and my table was clearly neglected before seating. Just to think I chose this place for a date made my anxiety worse. The floor was not clean and the waiting staff clearly took their time with other matters other than the customer. For were not my date meeting me there instead of arriving together, I would have left immediately. But being patient that I am I tried to make the most of it by getting a staff member to bus my table and surroundings. Fortunately it was done before my date arrived. The food while edible, was not outstanding or differential. No tip, no return. Yelp instructs me to leave a star to complete the review, it's the only one it deserves. read more

Not a fan. The food is ok but not worth the price. Could have been a bad day for them but I'm unlikely to try there again

Great casual dining. Good food portions and attentive staff. I ordered the steak special with loaded bake potato. The deserts are large enough to split between two people. read more

Dirty Dirty Dirty. The windows had finger prints and smudges on the windows, the carpeting is old, worn and dirty. The food was just okay. The salad was good but the lettuce wasn't cool. Overpriced in my opinion. I won't be back. read more

Torn between 1 star & 2 star review, probably should be 1, but this place used to be good so I am hoping that they are just in a slump. Our last two trips the food has gotten progressively more disappointing. The food used to be fresh, hot & flavorful, lately though it has more closely resembled microwave dinners. They have taken items off of the menu (including my favorite, Buffalo Chicken Sandwich) & the items that are left on the menu are bland. Service has been hit or miss, with more miss than hit. Final word, I don't plan on going back until I see several reviews saying that the restaurant has came back around, & I definitely would not recommend them to anyone. read more

Stay away from this place, the food is bad and the service is worse. I don't see how they are in business

Our party of six adults and one child tried Magel's Grill tonight for dinner. It was my wife's and my first time there. We both tried the "Texas Best Jack," a grilled chicken topped with steamed vegetables and Jack Cheese. It was served steaming hot in a skillet with two sides and rolls. It was delicious, and a lot more than we each could consume in one meal, so we both wound up with a take-home box. Next time, we'll split the entre. Our server was Brittany and she was very attentive. She kept checking to make sure we had everything we needed. She was a great server. We'll return to Magel's Grill again. read more

Variety of different choices on the menu to fit anyone's food preferences! Their rolls are DELICIOUS!!! The staff members are very friendly!

Pretty good food. I used to love it when it was downtown. The service is always good. My favorite is the chicken Alfredo.

If your looking for the best Salmon in this area this is the place for it not only is it perfectly cooked its served by a warm and experienced staff. read more

Best food and great service. They have a great menu. The best chicken fried steaks in Texas!!

We had our nephew's Rehearsal Dinner party there and we were very very happy with it. We were a very large group and yet they got us seated in a private room immediately and the service was great. We ordered strawberry margheritas from the bar and not only were they huge but they were wonderful! I ordered the fajitas and got a sizzling platter of wonderfully seasoned meat, fresh tortillas and freshly chopped veggies to go on top. My daughter ordered the pot roast and it was really good too! We would definitely return again. read more

In town again and wanted to try a new place. The place is definately going onto my list. I had the chicken fried steak. It was served HOT! and the gravy was wonderful. The sides were cooked very well and also served HOT! Service was what moved them from three to four stars. The waitress was what I want at every place I eat. read more

Very average. Nothing really stood out. Dressings, sauces and croutons were all packaged. Nothing made from scratch. Limited beer and wine selection. Waitress was very perky and friendly. I probably would not go back. read more

My family moved from Paris, TX in April 2015. We had stopped going to Magel's due to how unprofessional the Manager and wait staff were. She would be seen on her phone or sitting at tables with other customers, and on more than one occasion cursing at other employees, and cutting up loudly. We are visiting family over the holidays and went to Magel's Thursday night. The apparently new manager made his way through the restaurant and looked so professional and was so polite. He helped the servers in every way possible and was even seen cleaning off tables!! The wait staff was so orderly and the restaurant was so nice and clean! I was pleasantly surprised at the way this business had changed. So glad that Magel's "took out the trash" I will be sure to visit EVERYTIME we return to Paris! Food is to die for! Everyone needs to go!!! read more
