I’m not typically one to leave reviews but I just had to say thank you to everyone at Magnolia’s. We had a 10/10 night last night. The service was impeccable and the food was absolutely amazing! Thank you for making my birthday so special and memorable.

What an allround excellent experience for lunch today. The setting is very tasteful and comfortable. The food and wine was excellent and service very attentive. The price was not as high as expected and we will be back 👍

I had such a great experience at Magnolia Social Club Lounge! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a stylish ambiance that sets the perfect tone for a night out. The views are stunning and really add to the overall vibe of the place. A special shout-out to Busiswa, our hostess, who welcomed us with so much energy and professionalism—she truly made us feel at home. Also gave us a tour of the entire estate. The staff overall were attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. Magnolia is definitely a spot I’d recommend if you’re looking for good vibes, great service, and a beautiful setting.

They haven't had a few things on the menu (food, spirits) which I find quite unprofessional for this type of restaurant. The food was average, mussels weren't good. Wouldn't recommend it.

Second time staying at Erinvale - and were looking to the food as usual! To our surprise, the previous Oak restaurant had been changed up to the new Magnolia Lounge. First commendation has to be for all the staff- from the concierge, to waitresses, managers, bar staff - everyone was really outstanding - it seems everyone genuinely loves working there - which gives guests an indication of the quality of the management and owners - rare to find these days! More importantly: the food. The new Magnolia Lounge has a revamped menu , with almost too many delicious-sounding foods to choose from! We settled on the main portion of beef tacos and chicken pesto pasta. There are also the options to have small plate versions of many of the mains! Food was outstanding! Tacos were big and had plenty of beef inside - perhaps the beef could’ve done with one minute less in the grill, but flavour was amazing nonetheless and very generous with the meat. Chicken pasta on the other hand was also delicious! Loads of chicken and massive serving size. Almost enough for two. My only disappointment about this restaurant is that not many locals know it as being open and available and I feel is often overshadowed by the nearby Lourensford estate and their food offerings! If you are in the area and looking for delicious food and cocktails (which are abnormally well priced)- I cannot recommend this place enough. Price wise, cocktails range from R50 to about R100, and food you are looking at R200/person. Will definitely be looking forward to our return next year!
