If you're going to be open on Mother's Day and make it $46 a person. You can't be out of red pepper, bread, desserts, and more. That's ridiculous. And we still had to pay the full price.
Magnolia Villa is an excellent restaurant! The Bolognese is absolutely delicious. The Lobster Ravioli special tonight was awesome. Riley and other staff members are very attentive and Magnolia Villa is no doubt, my favorite restaurant in Canton. Mimi Davis

This was our second visit. We brought friends so they could enjoy it. We asked to be seated in a quiet table and they placed us in a booth nearest the bathroom and the soft drink service center. So, lots of activity just off our shoulders. While I don't mind paying higher prices for fine dining, $25 for three meatballs and pasta is outrageous. One of our guest ordered chicken piccata with gluten-free pasta, and her dish was brought about five minutes late to the table. So three of us had to wait until her food was served to begin eating. One of the desserts which we had on our first visit has now been changed, and instead of a glaze, they used whipped cream. The service was OK. But I think on our next visit, we're hoping that the kitchen does a better job. And we will ask to be seated at a different table.

Food is consistently excellent. Lots of flavor and high quality. We've never had a bad meal there. Bolognese is some of the best out there. Salads are delicious and so are the appetizers- like bruschetta. Best cannolis around!

Way over priced for quality of food. Many better options close by. Seems to be a theme with this restaurant group. Don’t waste your $

Appetizers were the best part of the meal, we had the muscles and the beef, both were excellent. Chicken picatta was ok; fettuccine Alfredo was good. This was our second time here, and they have definitely improved.

Just found this wonderful restaurant on the way home to Cumming after visiting Savoy car museum. How lucky we were!!! Excellent food and service...I had the chicken marsala and my husband had the lasagne, sauces on both delicious!!! Large portions, prices are good. Kudos to the chef!!! Waitress was very pleasant and helpful with choosing a meal. I highly recomment this Italian restaurant. We will be back..

We enjoyed the excellent service and the wonderfully tasting and presented food options. My wife loves the Salmon and orders it every time we visit Magnolia Villa. Three of the four of us ordered the Salmon and it was yummy!
For an $110 meal, it was not worth it. The service was extremely slow, we got our appetizers 40 minutes after sitting down, I dont know if this was the server or kitchens fault, but everyone that got there after us left way before us too. We left after 2 hours. Our desserts were served about 40 minutes after our entree, and by that point we just wanted to leave. Extremely disappointed because the prior Valentines visit was 5/5 stars. This, not so much.

One of our favorite places for dinner. This was the special Valentine Day special menu--very reasonable price, food and desert were excellent as well as the menu "choices", all service very friendly and quick. Highly recommend it for a casual lunch or dinner. We will return!
We went on Valentines Day. The food was great. The Cesar salad was big and very tasty. They use fresh pasta and the sauces are the best I've had in a long time. It's a great place for a special occasion.

We started our meal with the Mussels. The sauce was better than just white whine and garlic. It had depth to it, I believe roasted red peppers and herbs! I ordered Lasagna for my main course, my wife tried the Eggplant Parmesan. Both dishes are fairly simple ideas but the execution was impressive. The Eggplant was fried well but still had texture to it so it was not mushy. The Lasagna came out piping hot and the salty, melty mozzarella and a great bolognese in the mix.

Service was excellent and food was just ok. I ordered chicken piccata which usually has a lemon sauce but had red sauce and the chicken was overcooked. Last time we ate here, the food was wonderful so maybe it was an off night .

We go here often, but it seems they are always out of something. This time, they had NO bread, and the wine I ordered wasn't available. Our friends' eggplant Parmigiano was tough for the 2nd time going there. I'm not sure what's going on, but they need to get it together for us to continue frequenting.
