Magnolia Bistro Review

So so delicious! The owners are delightful and the catfish is my favorite in the city. Always leave happy and very full!

cajun food, yeah, super satisfying. The bill was fair for the quality of food.

Awesome food! Really cool, trendy place to grab a bite for lunch! Great food and relaxed environment, really good desserts and the cakes looked amazing! Nice refreshing change up for lunch in OKC!

Delicious cajun offerings and sweet, sweet people to offer them. Loved the crawfish etoufee, meat pies, lobster Mac n cheese, gumbo and crab queso. The blueberry beignets dusted in powdered sugar were divine. Will definitely be going back!

Cajun food, super satisfying. Stopped in on a Tuesday. Had a friend come into town and she asked me to take her here again. Prices that won't shock you.

These meat pies are so crazy delicious!! The restaurant is the best smelling around and all the food I've had has been absolutely amazing every time!

The best catfish po boy sandwich and red beans /rice, in OKLAHOMA City! I ll be back.

I had the shrimp and grits. Very tasty. Love the way the grits were fried up. Tasty sauce.

cajun food and the setting here is better than most. Dropped in on Mon I think. Service is typically great. Bring your appetite because portions are large.

Amazing food. Great prices. I highly recommend eating here any chance you get.

cajun food and the feeling at this place is super good. Nice place to relax, people watch, eat good, etc.

Wow amazing food. The shrimp and grits were ridiculous good

Overall, the food and service was AMAZING!!! I've always hated fried tomatoes, this fine day I became a believer. The synchrony of the crab beignets to the shrimp and fried grits was appalling. Like, how dare you take hot cereal and pair it with those spices to make something so delicious. So savory, if they had applications I would pay rent and stay there!

Always friendly faces and great food! I m glad they are nearby my office.

Cajun food and the scene at this spot is excellent. Food was so fresh. Bring your appetite because portions are generous.

The best shrimp I have ever had!! The lobster mac and cheese was perfect!! Will be going back for sure!! Oh and the staff are so sweet and greeted with a smile from everyone who worked there!!

I've been watching this restaurant on Facebook for awhile and drooling at the pictures. This weekend we finally ordered online and picked up for a picnic and I'm so glad we did! I wasn't totally clear on some of the ingredients and items on the online ordering platform so IMd them and they responded super fast and was so nice and helpful! Then we got the food! My gosh, I haven't had a shrimp poboy that good in awhile! The bread was perfect, a bit crispy on the outside with a nice soft chew with shrimp that was breaded lightly by someone who knew what they were doing, not overly heavy and overdone with batter. So good! My husband's blackened chicken salad was loaded with chicken albiet a tad salty. I can't wait to go back in and have biengets and dessert! So good, thanks for keeping up the intrigue on fb.

This is the sister restaurant to Brielle s in Midwest City! So a good chunk of their menu is exactly the same as Brielle s, I mean, same recipe and everything. Of course, we decided to get items that aren t offered at Brielle s. We got the meat pies, the honey lime wings, crawfish cornbread, and lobster Mac and cheese. Very good, but I wish they served sweet tea too. Great location, will be back to try their weekly specials!

My gosh, the shrimp n grits at this place will make you crave for more! So delicious! The staff, very kind and personable.

Had the blacken catfish w/Crawfish etouffee..excellent. so yummy.

Authentic Cajun, this is where its at. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend!

We ordered the chicken and sausage gumbo that came w rice. The presentation was good. I like my gumbo with a brown roux. Was disappointed due to too much salt and not any cajun flavor. Only sausage with very little chicken. I guess the sausage was andouille but it didn't taste like it. I'm sorry it just didn't have the gumbo flavor to me. I will be back to try the rest of the menu. Recommend not being to heavy handed on the salt.

Absolutely delicious food!!! The chef is phenomenal!!! Will be back, I need to try everything on the menu

Cajun food here - very tasty. A favorite evening place of mine. Looking forward to coming back with my coworkers. Prices are appropriate. Food and atmosphere reminds me of Atlanta.

I got the gumbo, fried green tomatoes and the cornbread. I loved the gumbo, but did wish it came with rice! The service was great and the decor is cute. Happy this place is right next to work. I will work my way through the menu for sure.

Food was very good, it takes a little while, but pretty much worth it.

Fine place for tasty Cajun food. Definitely worth a return trip. The prices are good for what you get.

This place is amazing. The food is made fresh and comes out pipping hot. They are very obviously proud of their quality and know how to cook up some delicious gator. The service is great! The host made sure we enjoyed our meals and was very friendly even though the place was full to the brim with people.

Absolutely Lovely! We will be back for sure! The fried grits and shrimp were flavorful. The decor was modern and pleasant.

One of my fav spots for Cajun food. Visited on Fri I believe. The service here is above par. The place has an awesome atmosphere. Feeling here is similar to a place in Columbus I liked.

The food was amazing. Friendly staff and great atmosphere.

I have been here twice. Food has been awesome both times. Will definitely be going back.

Vibrant staff and exquisite food. Very different but tasty. Excellent mix of seasonings.

One of my preferred locations for tasty Cajun food. it's so delicious. the bill was good for how much you get.

After waiting months to finally try this place I was not disappointed. The inside of Magnolia Bistro is very well decorated and has a wonderful atmosphere. Some of the food items at Magnolia Bistro have a creative spin on classic dishes you commonly get from other Southerner or Cajun restaurants. I would recommend the strawberry cake and Shrimp po boy!

Love the gumbo, fried grits and poboys. Staff is friendly and the food quality is consistent. Excited to have Creole and Cajun cuisine in Automobile Alley.

My fav spot for tasty cajun food. Food was so appetizing. I will be bringing family next time. This place has many reviews for a reason.

Best gumbo and fried green tomatoes I ve ever had. If you haven t eaten here yet, you need to!!

Downtown bistro scene AND good food?
Score!!

This was our first time eating at Magnolia Bistro but it won t be our last.
The blackened catfish w/ crawfish etouffee was delicious. It was definitely spicy but great. My husband had chicken and sausage gumbo and loved it. It was creamy and kicked up a notch. We both like spicy food though so the seasoning was perfect in both dishes.
There are several other dishes on the menu we want to try.

Crawfish etoufee bowl with grilled shrimp & a squeeze of fresh lemon was yummy! Xl #redvelvet cake. Great fried catfish and great blackened catfish. Awesome fried green tomatoes and shrimp. Gumbo has an amazing base. Cute little space.

Very good. Need a way to know who to deliver food to. Our good was really long in coming.

I was surprised at how DELICIOUS everything is!!!! Atmosphere is amazing also. I only have 1 issue. Portion size compared to price. I know that a lot of what they make is from scratch and it has an inherent added cost doing that. That is also what makes the flavor so wonderful. Caveat, not everything is dis-proportioned. I felt the Lobster Mac & Cheese was the perfect portion for the price. The Surf and Turf Egg Rolls on the other hand were skimping. If there were 1 more egg roll, it would perfect! I work half a block from here so I will CERTAINLY be returning until i have tried the entire menu and determine the best bang for your buck. As of right now, a great lunch would be ordering 2 orders of the lobster mac and call it good. You would get a great value going that route.

Very clean and friendly. Food was exceptionally good.

Excellent food. The fried green tomatoes were great and the fried catfish was perfectly crunchy. Highly recommend trying this place out. Small and quaint, with a great ambiance.

The food is amazing! The restaurant just opened for business 3 weeks ago! Really good food

Magnolia Bistro catered and bartended our wedding. The food was sooo good and my guests were very pleased! Kaylee was very professional and easy to work with. Highly recommend going in their restaurant and hiring for catering services!

I wish the they were open more aside from Tuesdays and fridays

One of my top places for delicious Cajun food. Got there about three, it wasn't crowded. The service here is outstanding. It has an awesome feel to it. Food is similar to a cafe in Indianapolis I loved.

A friend and I were finally able to try Magnolia Bistro. Let me tell you, they did not disappoint!! Delicious food and great atmosphere. Everyone was so kind and friendly. I had the fried catfish and my friend had the fried shrimp. I thought the catfish had a delicious breading. I would highly recommend Magnolia Bistro!

Best fried green tomatoes I've ever had! Will be back to try more things.

Came in today during lunch. Had the meat pies, the sauce that came with it was tasty. Stag is very friendly and the atmosphere is great! Will def be back.

Cajun food and the setting at this spot is great. this place will surprise you. looking forward to going back again. bring your appetite because portions are large.

Good, but pricy food. Very limited seating. Fried green tomatoes were a hit.

Great food. Location is great for lunch off broadway.

This place slaps. Great food, wonderful atmosphere, and the staff is very attentive and friendly. The bread used for the Po' boy's is divine. Crunchy on the outside and hot and fluffy on the inside. Everything was well seasoned and the ingredients were fresh. 5/5 would recommend.

Great little gumbo place. The gumbo is excellent and the catfish dish is also delectable. As they have just opened up you have to buy bottled water or sodas if you want a drink. The bignets are also a great treat for dessert. If you're looking for some solid Cajun food in a small but modern setting. This is the place for you.

cajun food, mmm, super good. certainly worth a return visit. it has a nice atmosphere.
