Good food, good service, nice atmosphere. A little loud, not because of the patrons, it just seemed to be the restaurant acoustics. We went with a group of about 10. No issue calling ahead for a table that size. Server handled all people, no issue - food came hot, drinks stayed cold. I wasn't blown away, but I also wasn't disappointed. No reason to remove stars, but at the same time I don't know what would draw me back here in a hurry. Hard to describe the overall sentiment - I would say it is as expected. We left happy and wouldn't be upset returning.

Out of this world. The steak and avocado salad was incredible. We had calamari for an appetizer it might be the best I’ve ever had. My cheeseburger was perfect. The sweet potato fries were flawless. Our waitress, Tess, was so attentive and made us feel special.

First time at this restaurant and I can say it was a great experience. To start I got a chicken tortilla soup 10 out of 10. Then , I ordered chicken piccata that also was delicious. At the end my czn decided to order a corn bread that we enjoyed. Our waitress was exceptional. I think her name was Lexy (I’ll ask for her next time ). Definitely I’ll go back .

This was our first visit to The Republic Grille in Magnolia and it did not disappoint! We were warmly greeted when we walked it and promptly greeted by our fabulous server, Madeline. She offered recommendations and a great sense of humor to our experience. The food was delicious! I ordered the lasagna and my husband ordered the burger. Generous portions for both (which my husband is thankful for). We also ordered martinis and those are hit or miss at places we visit and I have to say it was soooo good we gulped them down before our meal even came! Lol Mark, the manager was informed of our first time visit and came over to our table to welcome us and also sent us over a complimentary dessert of our choice! Top notch experience and I would highly recommend the restaurant to anyone! We will be back!!!

This is my new favorite by far! Every item on our plates was perfect! Real potatoes with real gravy, not the package stuff. The onion rings were made from the sweetest onions. The fish was flaky and the Chicken Fried Steak was delicious. The desserts were absolutely decadent and the bar menu is expansive. I really can’t wait to go back and try more items. Thank you Jerald for coming to our table to greet us and thanks Sierra for your excellent service and suggestions. We did have reservations through Open Table and the place was full as well as the bar area. I would suggest reservations.

Lane, our waiter was awesome! Def going to ask for him next time. Thank you Nicole for the cake! You're amazing and the cake is amazing and everything is amazing!! 😍😍😍😍

Great food, reasonable prices for a full-service sit-down restaurant. Well trained and friendly waitstaff, and a wide menu selection. We have been just as impressed at the level of service when we are dining just the two of us as when we bring extended family for birthday celebrations. Love having options for sitting on the large patio when the weather is pleasant, the bar seating is fun for the two of us and we have enjoyed the smaller quieter room off the side of the main dining room. So many wonderful choices!

The Strawberry Lemon Drop I had was refreshing. The bruschetta was pretty nice, and the waitress recommended to try it with a side of goat cheese and I t did add a good twist to it. Also the TRG Top Chop was very juicy & tender. Definitely loved the maple syrup & creole mustard dipping sauce for the pork chop, and the grilled asparagus was tasty. If I had to say something , I’d wish there were more than three asparagus’s!

I was pleasantly surprised by the decor and food options here. We went on wine Wednesday and got a $30 bottle for $20! We ordered the chicken fried steak, jalapeño Mac n cheese, broccoli, onion rings and peach cobbler. First and foremost I appreciated them putting the gravy on the side without asking! This way the chicken fried steak stays crispy. The full flavor profiles of the chicken fried steak will let you know why it’s award winning. My favorite of the night: jalapeño and bacon Mac and cheese!! So very rich and different levels of flavors. Not too spicy but has a little something something. For being a first time customer we were offered a dessert for free. We chose the peach cobbler and ooooooo myyyyy goodness!!! Absolutely delicious and can definitely be split between two people. HIGHLY recommend it. The only reason I did not give this place 5 stars is because some of our food came out Luke warm/cold (broccoli and the Mac and cheese) we politely ask our waitress if it could be reheated and she immediately addressed the issue. She came back not 2 second later with some hotttt mac and cheese. :) despite this incident, we’ll be going back. I hope this was just a one time fluke with the cold food.

This was one of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately this was a big red flag to ever come back. We found a piece of metal piece s sponge in our food. Dangerous and gross. 🤮

We ordered take-out, and unfortunately, the chicken was overcooked to the point of being inedible – too chewy; we couldn't eat it. While the sides were tasty, the gluten-free strawberry shortcake was dry and didn’t seem fresh. I still ate the cake because I was excited to have a gluten free dessert.

My review applies to To Go orders: this was my first visit to this establishment. After placing my order for a hamburger, to be cooked medium rare, I was given a price that he said included "the order, taxes and fess". Yep. Apparently they started a "prep fee" during COVID as an add on and have kept it five years later. My fee was about $1.50 for one burger. I asked if the server got the money and he said no, it stays with the restaurant. Well none of that left me with a very good feeling, but the real kicker was when I got home and unpacked the meal. There was no napkins, no mustard, no mayo, no ketchup, no salt and pepper and the burger was cooked well done! The place just doesn't care, so beware! In business you get one chance to make a good first impression and if you don't you better try like hell to make it right for the customer. They did not. They simply shrugged and said "that's the way it is". My experience was awful and the staff's indifference to the customer added insult to injury. Way to go Republic Grill for losing a customer on the first try.
