Robie's And Lounge At Magnolia

Poor service (seemed like an understaffed kitchen . We were the only ones in the restaurant and waited 50 minutes for mediocre food (our appetizers were forgotten .

First time visiting but we will definitely be back! The drinks were a perfect start to our date, the food was spectacular, and we ended the night with dessert and champagne. The staff was accommodating and attentive to our requests and very friendly throughout the entire time we were there. Loved the winter decorations and specialty drinks for the season. Highly recommend for a date night!

Robie's was unprepared for such a large group; they only had one cook. Thank goodness I thought to make reservations ahead of time since I knew that this would be a large conference. Our server, Tony, was excellent. He was attentive, kind, and patient. However, the manager, was not. I felt rushed, questioned, and not welcome. The food was pretty good (hats off to the sole chef) and the decor was warm and inviting.

They were clearly understaffed, which led to long wait times, and clearly confused seating situation. We were sat very close to two other tables, so we could hear their conversations easily and vice versa. Everyone was in town for a concert so that wasn't so bad sharing conversations, but would not have been great for most other nights out. It also allowed us to see that both tables on either side of us had issues with their orders, both with incorrect items and late items. My tables food was luke-warm but after watching what was happening with the other tables we were lucky. The staff was polite and hustling, but they just didn't have enough people to cover the crowd and it was clear the issues extended into the kitchen staff for the speed the food was coming out.

Great service and food for breakfast and were very kind to children.
