It was my first time there. Very nice venue, friendly staff, good drinks and prices! I saw Josh Weathers in concert here and it was one of the best concerts ever!

Very intimate venue, sound was good, drinks Lil pricey not awful. Staff very friendly, parking plentiful, good Lil joint. I liked the other spot better more of a garagey motor lounge feel, with a better outside area, but this place'll do. Will definitely keep em.in mind when looking for something to do.

The Magnolia is an amazing place and at the heart of it rests Miss Julia. From the jump she was amazingly kind to my friend and I. We sat at the bar and had some drinks, cracked some jokes, drew some questionable doodles on napkins and hung out with some locals. Everyone was so chill and welcoming. The drinks were great and the vibe was immaculate.

To Julia, I do hope the loop earbuds help. Thank you for being so dedicated and wonderful.

Oh yeah there was also a concert going on. It was badass and the sound quality was better there than some of the arenas I've been to.

Additionally, shout out to the security team here. I appreciate you taking my concerns seriously and going above and beyond to make us feel safe. The little check ins calmed my anxiety and I was able to bounce back from a near panic attack and enjoy the rest of the show.

Mac was amazing! Very patient and attentive. Explained everything the bar/venue offers, made us great drinks, and gave great hugs (which i believe are a lost formality when we're willing to shake hands with others, and for the rexord...he was totally forced into said hug.) Will definitely be back due to Mac's accommodating and welcome g sercive.

We went to see Lily Hiatt and had a great time. The acoustics in the club were great and the bartenders were very friendly.

Local bar with live music. Friendly bartenders and friendly patrons. Can sit outside during breaks.

Great blues band tonight and the Dallas hockey game on the TV. What more could you want.

No food, but you can bring food in.

Great spot for live music! We can hear for the Ellis Bullard show and it was amazing. Attentive bartenders and they have a patio area out front. Security was present.
