Magnolia Grill

Magnolia Grill in Natchez, Mississippi First off, there was no wait time at all, which was a great start. Parking was easy to find, and it was just a short walk to the front of the restaurant. There is also a side parking lot available, along with outdoor seating, which is a nice option, especially with the river view. The restaurant is perfectly situated overlooking the Mississippi River on the Louisiana side, and we arrived right at sunset. The sky was absolutely beautiful and felt very magical. The host was welcoming and seated us immediately. Our waitress was very kind, informative, and attentive. The restaurant felt homey but still very organized and comfortable. Our food and drinks came out quickly, which we really appreciated. I was dining with my mom and sister. I ordered the shrim

We had an early dinner on a Tuesday so no problem getting at a table with a view. Shrimp and grits was good but the grilled asparagus was anemic and no seasoning. There server, Cody came out with an order of grilled zucchini to replace the asparagus because the kitchen was not happy with their asparagus today. Nice touch to be preemptive. My fried shrimp were nice size but way too much breading for me. Side of grits very good. Also we had fried green tomatoes with good hollandaise sauce but the shrimp/crawfish topping seemed like it had been in the steam table too long. Kinda of tough. Nicely breaded but for us too thick of a slice so interior was crunchy.

Magnolia Grill is one of those almost nostalgic feeling riverside seafood cafes. Prices are reflective of a waterfront establishment. Food is excellent quality and decently portioned. Staff is friendly and professional while still feeling welcoming and warm.

I had the shrimp and grits and the bread pudding and both were fantastic. All of the servers and bartenders were super friendly. I’ll be back again next time I visit!

Great food and location! The crab stuffed mushrooms were magnificent! The shrimp and grits are good but soo rich! The frued flounder special was outstanding!
