Discovered this little gem in downtown Sedro-Woolley, a town not known for its culinary excellence. Anyway they've got comfort food DOWN!!! It was a Friday, early evening and the place wasn't busy but with Covid spacing it was almost to its max inside the restaurant portion. They also have a bar area. They offer a 10 oz portion of prime rib on Fri/Sat so the wife opted for that. She said it was excellent, cooked to order, tender and tasty. It came with a choice of potato, $1 extra for a baker, and fresh sautéed vegetables- green beans, zucchini and roasted garlic cloves. She chose a cup of chowder over a salad. The chowder was a little thin but had great flavors. I was torn between the meatloaf and the buttermilk fried chicken. In the end I chose the chicken. I got three large tenderloins, buttermilk battered and fried, covered in a house made country graveyard seasoned with their homemade Tarheel sausage. They were very good. A little overcooked but tasty nonetheless. My side was mashed potatoes and gravy plus the aforementioned fresh vegetables. I chose a Magnolia salad, a $3 upcharge, loaded with all sorts of goodies and a balsamic vinegarette. The service was good and attentive without being overbearing. Our waters were kept full. The prices were actually more than fair - the prime rib was $20 and my chicken dinner was $16. Considering how fresh and tasty everything was and the size of the portions it was a good deal. read more

I love this place! The food is always delicious and the servers are amazing. I've been here three times so far and will go back as soon as possible. I've gone with just my spouse and also a group of five. Great food and service every time! read more

Our server Rose, Meemaw (?) to her grands, was very nice and attentive to our questions. The food is tasty and the servings are super generous. We share: The Magnolia Salad, reens, candied pecans dried cranberries, red onion, pickled beets & feta with balsamic vinaigrette The SOUTHERN CHEESY SHRIMP AND GRITS Prawns sautéed with bacon, red bell pepper & bourbon onions in our Creole & cream sauce served over creamy stone-ground grits topped with cheddar. My husband had a cup of the Chicken rice soup. And delicious, decadent, oh so sinful Meemaw's pie - tasted like mascarpone, has coconut, caramel, delicious shortbread crust, and some other indulgences. We liked it all around, atmosphere, service, cocktails, and food read more

Great service, we had a group of 10. Pleasant ambiance. Gumbo is great as is the Shrimp Po 'Boy. Not a fan of collards combined with corn ... my mistake for not reading description. Sampler appetizer was good although the Pimento Cheese would have been more enjoyable with something to spread it on. Prices were as everywhere else. Others in our group didn't order the more Southern dishes which is the whole reason to go to Magnolia. I'll go again and try something else on the menu. Not many Southern food restaurants in Snohomish County read more

Been here a few time some stuff is four star, some three, some five. Overall pretty good place in downtown Sedro Wolley. Fish and chips is a five star and two filets are perfect. Tasty. Classic Burger got a nod from the Pops. Chicken was a touch salty. Their cheesecake is just ok but that Mamaw pie is ridiculously good and that is why this place gets a 5 star. That pie you could eat every day and be a fat happy camper! read more

My son ate here for his Freshman homecoming with a group of friends. He ordered ribeye steak - while he said the steak came out at the perfect temp (med rare), the steak itself was inedible. He had one bite, said it didn't taste good and didn't finish. I would be willing to give to this restaurant another shot. The owner did take our concern into thought and offered a refund after trying a cooked steak herself and agreeing. We've heard great things about Magnolia and would be willing to try again once she changes her meat manufacturer. read more

This place is so yummy! I got the bourbon chicken it was delicious. The service was really good. It has a nice vibe the second walk in. Would recommend this place to everyone! read more

Absolutely love having a nice restaurant to go to in Sedro Woolley. Ordered the shrimp and grits and it was pretty spicy -- which was perfect for me! My friend ordered the steak and it was cooked perfectly. Will definitely be back ! read more

Tried to call in an order for take out. Was asked nicely to hold and was promptly forgotten about. Phone was left off the hook so that I could hear everything going on and nobody ever came back. Finally hung up after 10 minutes. Tried calling back a bit later and the phone was still off the hook as I was sent straight to voicemail. Extremely disappointed. Lost a customer due to complete lack of basic service. read more

First off, let me be honest, and say I'm grading on the curve here. Poor Sedro-Woolley has been the butt of jokes, and a decent dining wasteland for decades. Yeah, there's a great pizza place, and a couple of good Mexican restaurants, and that's it. We heard Magnolia Grill had opened up a while back, decided to give it a try. Magnolia Grill has both a bar area, and a family dining space. The decor is spare, but pleasant. I like their paint scheme and repurposed doors and window frames, feels kinda like a Joanna Gaines vibe. I had the Chicken Marsala, with the seasonal veggies. Could have had a baked potato or smashed potatoes, but it felt like a fries night. They were great, nice and crispy and tasty. The green beans and red bell peppers were cooked perfectly, not turned into mush. Loved the caramelized onions with them, a nice touch. The Marsala Chicken was good, the chicken fork tender. My wife had the Lemon Rosemary Chicken, which came with a blackberry brandy sauce reduction. It looked wonderful, I got a taste of the sauce, it was enticing enough that I have to try it next trip. She loved it! So, their wine list ... well, this IS Sedro-Woolley. My wife had an acceptable Chardonnay, I had an acceptable Syrah. Hoping they up their game a bit there. They do have a great selection of beer! We were bummed that they don't have wild-caught Salmon on the menu, hoping as their business grows they can add that. One couple we saw ordered the Surf n Turf, looked like a good choice for meat eaters. All in all, we are excited that we now have a decent place to eat in Sedro! read more

Not the best photo, but wanted to positively review Magnolia Grill in Sedro. We decided to try it the day after Christmas (who wants to cook December 26th? Not me!) and were pleasantly surprised. I placed my order online and when I pulled up and got out of my car there was the owner with my food! Great service. We had everything we needed in the bag, ready to go. I really enjoyed this dish, the creole style shrimp and grits, and would definitely get it again! We also got some burgers that were tasty too. We will be back. read more

Good comfort food. We sat outside and the service was great. I had the grapefruit flirty cocktail which was delish. I had the fried chicken. The chicken was well flavored but the mash potatoes and gravy needed salt. They were bland. My friend had The honey chicken and was too sweet and inconsistent flavored bites. The cheese curds were great. My fiend had the bacon and chicken salad she enjoyed it. Overall we loved the staff and the food. Not bad for the small town read more

My how things have changed! Just had dinner in this quaint restaurant which has had a menu change, with an elimination of the prime rib dinners on Friday nights. I'm sorry to say that I don't believe this restaurant will be in business long. The prices have gone up, quality and quantity has gone down for the price. On a Friday night, only one other couple was in the restaurant. I had the Buttermilk chicken which was one chicken breast smashed flat and fried. The chicken was not crispy as the grease was obviously not hot enough in the frier. I chose mashed potatoes for my side for $18. No salad and no bread for accompaniments as before. As usual, the server was fantastic, the place is quiet, although for price to quality comparison, not worth the trip. I didn't take photos as I should have but you get the gist. read more

Came here for our Anniversary dinner. It was so good!!!! We got the steak bites and cheese curds for an appetizer, shrimp and grits and the chicken and grits. Let me tell you it was amazing! Definitely comfort food. My husband ordered two drinks and he said they were very good. The prices are great and the service was on point. The only thing I was so sad about is they had no pie! I was looking forward to trying there famous pie. Can't wait to come back. read more

Five stars, no doubt. Very impressed with this new(er) place in downtown Sedro-Woolley. We stopped in before a basketball game and had a wonderful meal! My wife had the buttermilk fried chicken strips, which were amazing. The flavoring was great; the chicken really tender. Probably the best she's ever had, she said. I had the Spicy H.O.G. - Heap of Goodness! It was packed with house smoked ham, shredded pork, sweet potatoes, Swiss cheese, chipotle ranch, and some kind of marinated jalapenos, served on a toasted baguette. Like a Cubano sandwich, but even better! The crinkle-cut fries that came with both our meals were perfectly prepared. We both had food to take home for later that night. Service was wonderful. We'll definitely be back in the next time we're in Sedro-Woolley! read more

A lovely place for a leisurely meal. Friendly staff and delicious and varied menu, including some vegetarian options.

Cute little Resturant off the main road road in Sedro Wooley. Popped in with a group of friends on our way to a wedding venue near by. We got a few appetizers like the baked Brie, cheese balls and spinach artichoke dip which were all fantastic! For my main dish I got the bourbon salmon. The salmon was a little over cooked, but flavor was tasty. Overall, a very pleasant experience read more

By myself at the bar. Artichoke and aioli. Cooked perfectly seasoning correct. Great combination of flavor. Prime rib nice thick cut perfectly rare the risotto though; just a touch more seasoning it was perfectly executed fresh vegetables, slightly oily but crisp and flavourful. My second outing and pleasantly surprised for Sedro Woolley. Service is attentive and on point. Salad is chopped crisp and flavourful, nothing exciting and no in house deserts. My main reason for 4 stars, hopefully take advantage of the market when fresh fruit comes in season. This is actually a place to have a nice dinner in town that isn't ethnic or in a bar full of yahoos. Worth a try if you haven't been. read more

Wow. I did not expect this place to be awesome. Was a little worried when it was empty on a sat night but man this food was great waitress(owner?) was very nice. I had the fried chicken which I never order at a restaurant. It was the best price of chicken I've ever had. Go here!! read more

This place is AMAZING. Best Cuban and margarita I've had in a long time. Can't wait to go back and try more things!

The service was excellent and food yummy! Specials sounded great. We all had the soup which was twice baked potato and 1/2 sandwich. Great!

Tonight my wife and I decided to go in the restaurant for dinner, she got the creamy chicken marsala and I had the smothered pork chops, my dinner was pretty good, potatoes were cold, my asked for a baked potato with everything, the potato was old and cold? The whole plate was swimming in sauce? Even the old and cold baked potato was in sauce! The potato had to have been cooked earlier in the evening and reused for my wife's dinner, the inside was not flaky like a normally fresh cooked potato it was a lump of cold potato? We loved that place! But I fear we will never go back! Sedro-Woolley needs good places to eat! But we've lost one!!! Extremely sad read more

Excellent ribeye steak medium rare and seasoned well. Fries are crisp and delicious. Really enjoyed the atmosphere too. Wiil be back as a regular. read more

The atmosphere is very warm and cute. I've had some hit and misses over the past few years but generally the food is very good and the service is always nice. I'll get the same thing and it's completely different sometimes I'm guessing by different cooks maybe I know the past year has been tough on everyone....but I had shrimp and grits when it first came out and it was so good then it started getting to be this awful dark red color and less creamy and kinda dry and too spicy and hardly any sauce. I got it again last night I thought I'd try it again it's been about a year since I tried it last and it was just like it was when I first got it a few years ago. Saucy and delicious just the right amount of spice please do NOT change it again!!! It was sooo good. If it was like what it was last night (Wednesday) it would be my number one recommendation if it's like what I had a year ago I wouldn't tell people about it so we will see. However some solid stuff is the Big Pig that's always the same and their pulled pork is delicious. The turkey has nice slices and doesn't seem to be that fake stuff you get at other places. They have some sauce they put on the turkey sandwich that is garlicky really makes the sandwich. All in all a great place inWoolley! Don't mind the hiccups the world has them right now and they seem to be getting better this past month or so maybe they have a regular cook. Hopefully. Support local! read more

This restaurant was worth the drive! The owner is incredibly friendly, the food is delicious and homemade! I can't wait to come come back again sometime soon!! read more

We love to support small businesses so I added an extra star but the food here was the worst I have ever had at a restaurant, it was flavorless and we were concerned that it was safe to eat as it had strange flavors and seemed old and microwaved. My husband ordered an apple juice and it looked like some spit or snot was inside his drink. We had a kind waitress but the staff was so stressed we felt like a burden and tried to be as quick as we could. Plates were being shattered and the food was overpriced and it was just not a good experience. Again sad to leave a review to criticize but I wanted to save others the time, maybe try lunch there, the dinner service and food was not good at all. read more

This is my 4th time here. I am never disappointed and neither is my husband. I love their chicken tender basket, perfect breading and juicy fresh chicken. Today I got that as well as tried for first time the fried artichokes- PERFECT! Good portion and the breading is light and flavored wonderfully. The staff here are always attentive and personable. Restaurant is always spotless and decorated in soothing tones. Great portions, quality and price. A gem in Skagit County! read more

I've always passed this place wondering what it was and finally my sister and I popped in, Not what I was expecting at all! This place was sooo cute small and quiet and their Menu was wonderful I wanted to try everything but ended up with a Ceaser Salad wrap, with fries. This was sooo tasty and fresh and was made to perfection. I will be back again and again! I hope more people learn about this place. They deserve it! read more

New to the are thought we'd try some local restaurants. Arrived Friday afternoon at 3:30pm, sandwich board sign on the sidewalk says prime rib Friday. We walked in and the place was empty. The waitress came to our table gave us menus then disappeared, we sat a good 15 minutes before she returned. I ordered the prime rib because that's what the menus said "prime rib 3pm-8 " I was immediately told no prime rib until 4pm, well that's not what the menus said. We argued for a minute, I wasn't happy. Instantly disappointed, I had to change my selection after she told me it wasn't available until 4pm regardless of what the menu said. So I ordered the Cajun shrimp fettuccine with creole red sauce. Absolutely disgusting, tasted like a frozen food meal off the aisle at Safeway out of the microwave, also served with white bread and some butter on the side for $18, I was ripped off. My wife ordered the meat loaf, another major disappointment, absolutely horrible! Tasted like cooked plain hamburger with brown gravy on it. Don't go here, you will thank me. And Connie, your two menus we had said 3:00 for the prime rib, big error in advertisement. read more

I really wanted to like this place the menu looked good. But the execution was awful. I had the bourbon brisket with no flavor at all. It almost tastes like boiled meat. The only good thing was the salad and the dressing blue cheese. The waitress was nice but all my food came out at the same time appetizer salad and the meal within two minutes of the salad and appetizer. read more

THEY SERVE REAL SWEET TEA! Sure, the menu is a bit different for the area, but we like it. So far, I've had the ribeye, the pulled pork sandwiches, a pork chop, the meatloaf (no, it wasn't floating in ketchup like some places). My wife like the friend chicken, and the salads are always fresh. We sent the kiddo and her friends for dinner before Homecoming, and since we are in the middle of a kitchen remodel, we ate Easter Dinner there. Great staff. We've been there enough to recognize the regulars who eat there at least once a week. It's a nice addition to the food scene in Woolley. read more

The waitstaff is incredibly friendly both times I've come here. Food is pretty good, though I did have a few issues with my last order. I ordered the turkey dinner which was supposed to be turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy and cranberry sauce. We ordered to-go (covid) and when I opened the box, it was turkey, green beans, and a baked potato (no stuffing, no mashed potatoes) - I understand though that mistakes happen and my husband enjoyed his meal very much. I was disappointed just given that the reason I ordered was the stuffing - it just sounded so so good. So to open the box and have 2 of the items not as advertised, I was pretty disappointed. Overall, everything we've had has been pretty good. Was let down also by the crab/artichoke dip, only because it is listed on the site as crab artichoke, but it has a *very* strong horseradish flavor, which can be jarring when you're not expecting it. Not a fan of horseradish, so that would probably be nice to note on the description for anyone who's not big into the flavor, I feel it's pretty split on who does/doesn't enjoy it. Fried mac n cheese is yummy, husband loved his shrimp and grits and prime rib dip. Overall, will eat there again, after this covid thing is all over. read more

Have eaten there many times and always want to go back! Great food, and great service. What more can I say. Ed B read more
