Magnus on Water

Magnus on Water is an absolute gem. We stumbled upon this spot while staying at The Lincoln Hotel. We booked seats at the bar - though the patio looked especially inviting on a crisp fall evening - and had the pleasure of chatting with co-owner Cat (ask him why it’s called Magnus on Water), JB (his Southern boy name!) & Isabella (who donated a very cool nutmeg grinder from her Granny’s closet). The cocktail program is top-tier …if brown liquor is your thing, don’t miss the Stiletto & the Oob Fashion. The food is creative, thoughtful, & full of flavor. Standouts for us were the Amberjack Tiradito and the Corn Huancaína. And whatever you do, save room for the chocolate cake …it’s unmissable. Service and food were both 10/10. If we lived nearby, this would be a regular in our rotation.

Seriously one of the best meals my husband and I have had in a while. The cocktails were creative and delicious and the food was phenomenal. My steak was cooked absolutely perfect. It’s a little pricy, but it is so worth it. My husband and I got 4 cocktails, 2 entrees, and 2 starters for around $150. The staff is so knowledgeable and kind and the outdoor seating is especially beautiful. We live in RI and we already plan on going back next summer. The cucumber salad is to die for. Get it. I mean it.

Truly one of the best dining experiences we’ve had. The service and atmosphere is amazing, the cocktails are unreal and the quality is unmatched. A unique menu and experience you won’t forget. Sit at the bar for a fun evening !!

Small eclectic restaurant with exceptional food. I was very unfamiliar with most of the menu but extremely happy with all our food and will definitely return. Salad was simple but beautifully plated and fresh, a great start to a meal. Not sure how to even describe the potato appetizer except to say try it. It is served cold and potato is creamy and sauce was exceptional, the flavors melted together for a beautiful dish. Tried two shrimp, they sell individually which is a great way to try an item without having to commit to a full meal, although I probably could have eaten a half dozen. Served head on and skewered the shrimp was tender and had a great sauce that had really nice heat. Eggplant probably the best I have ever had. Unique take on the dish as you get two very thick breaded

We were so impressed with everything here. From our greeting host to our bartenders and servers, perfect. The drinks were amazing, like everyone states. And the food - carefully and artfully prepared and presented, but I would have been as impressed if I could not have seen it.
