The Magnolia Pancake Haus - San Antonio

The food was decent, but it didn't stand out. The service was adequate, and I appreciated the location, especially the lovely yard and waiting area in the back. However, they were a bit stingy with the condiments. When I asked for napkins, they brought me flimsy paper rolls typically found in restrooms. I was also hoping for the big, fluffy pancakes shown in the pictures at the entrance, but they were a letdown as well. Overall, the experience didn't differ much from other breakfast spots, and it definitely wasn't worth the hour-long wait.

The quality of the food is inconsistent, yet the prices remain steep. It used to be a favorite at the embassy location; however, with the addition of more locations, the quality has diminished.

I absolutely love this place! It had been about 8 years since we last visited San Antonio, so we knew we had to stop by when we returned!

I was visiting friends in San Antonio and they recommended we go here for brunch. I'm so glad we went here! I loved being able to join the waitlist online, because there is definitely a long wait there often. It was in such a cute area filled with trees and there was a farmers market going on right outside the restaurant. Our service was great and she was super attentive. The food wasn't anything crazy, but it definitely hit the spot. I would definitely go back!

The food was wonderful. Served hot, perfectly cooked bacon per my request, yummy pancakes and excellent servers. The seating procedure was not. . We were texted to be seated. The hostess grabbed menu and asked us to stand aside. She returned and motioned for us to follow her but got distracted by another customer. In that time, another hostess came and told us to follow her to another wait in a hallway in the way of servers and customers. several were called for the same tables but several group and smaller table were dirty with one very slow busser clearing them. We joined a larger party who was called back before us but was stalled in the hallway as well. There were two in my party when another party of two arrived for the same table, leaving US to decide who would sit first, though we were already there, they claimed to have been called back before us. Once seated we saw flies on the sill obvious unalive. GROSS! BUT when we ask the waitress to clear them she had a gentleman come over and remove the 2 , then one live one promptly. The cost was very inexpensive but well worth double the cost for the quality and quality of food.
