The food other than the pancakes were horrible. Watery grits. Gravy had no flavour. Waiter only came by once. Horrible.

Everything about this place (Schertz location ) is superb. The food/portions, friendliness & efficiency of staff, cleanliness, attractive facility. Parking is plentiful. Many will complain about the wait time...but long waits only occur weekends. Ive never had to wait during the week, and i understand...customers can now actually sign on to the waitlist from their app before arriving ( i've never used it). Go and enjoy.More

Magnolia has everything on a breakfast menu that you could want. The coffee was delicious and e checked out the specials list and were not disappointed. The restaurant was crowded and a little out of the way but there was convenient parking and the food...was delicious.More

Great food. Great atmosphere. Welcoming experience. We were looking for a good breakfast place while in San Antonio. We found it here. The grounds were fun to explore while waiting for our table. A place worth checking out.

Our waitress was so nice and attentive. The food was great and fresh. Restaurant was clean and the scenery around the restaurant was very pretty and made time go by quick while we wondered around.

We visited this restaurant on Sunday of Labor Day weekend. We were in San Antonio for a college football game. We discovered the restaurant via a Google search and was not disappointed. We got on the waitlist when we arrived and had quite a wait,...but decided to stay. You are able to track your status on the waitlist. Ultimately, the wait was shorter than anticipated. The food was delicious and Caitlin (our server) was very conscientious and attentive. We definitely plan to visit again when we visit San Antonio.More

While vacationing we were looking for a good place for breakfast and found The Magnolia Pancake Haus with great reviews. We arrived around 10:00 on a Monday and were seated without a wait (although 20 minutes later there was a line). Our waitress was very...friendly. I ordered the Eggs and Browns and my wife had the Cakes and Eggs. Both meals were very good. Their pancakes are awesome. We would highly recommend The Magnolia Pancake Haus.More

In town for a visit and went to the Shertz location. First time ever we had terrible service (I had to go find a waitress). PLENTY of staff standing around socializing. And the waitress we got didn’t seem interested in being there. Smaller portions and...just ok. Sad.More

My husband & I could go on & on about this local breakfast spot. It’s busy & happening because it’s so dang good! We had an estimated wait time of 30 minutes & we got in even sooner. The menu is large so there is...something for everyone. I got the Southern Bennie & it was AWESOME. My husband got the Magnolia Breakfast which is your basic sampler & he hasn’t stopped raving. Both of our meals came with pancakes & they live up to their name. Worlds Best Pancakes!!! This was our favorite breakfast we’ve had in San Antonio. 10/10, will definitely be coming back!More

Don't expect perfection, they are overwhelmed. But, you will receive value for your dollar spent. Don't order the snack Chicken and waffles, while the waffles are good, the chicken was delivered by the Schwan truck or picked up in the grocery store frozen food aisle...on the way to work. Not fresh and hand breaded. Actually Not Good and I am trying to be kind. OK, I can't be kind they were horrible, the frozen chicken associated with the chicken and waffles, apologies but do not order that crapMore

Huebner & I-10 location. I went for the 1st time ever. I did NOT know what to expect. As I looked on the menu, what struck me, were the reasonable prices (about $8.00 - $13.00). Pleasant atmosphere. Friendly staff (my waiter Chris L. was very...helpful explaining stuff to me). U get a full pot of coffee for your table and the TRUE TEST - YES THE COFFEE WAS VERY GOOD! I ordered turkey hash w/ scrambled egg plus avocado plus biscuit with gravy. It was excellent! Watching other plates come out was torture because it all looked so good. I’m definitely going back with a gang of friends. They also have nice lunch selections too! If I wanna woo a client or friend for an afternoon meeting, I’m taking them here! Take notice - They close at 2p!More

Very dull, tasteless and boring looking pancakes ever! I mean, I’d rather eat at McDonald’s - even their are pancakes are better. This is the Magnolia PANCAKE house isn’t it? Supposedly, noted for their pancakes?More

I live out of state and was visiting my son here in San Antonio. Wanted a local breakfast experience. This place was great. My son had the original buttermilk pancakes and they were the best I’ve ever tried and I got the fancy cinnamon apple...pancake. I would give the unique name but I can’t remember how to spell it, oh my gosh that was good. “Oma’s Favorite” Loads of cinnamon and apple, fried bits of batter and just the right amount of heavy whipped cream. Soooo good. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. Warm Texas people. We will be coming back next visit for sure.More
