Restaurants near Magnolia Lake State Park Historical

Dawn was our server. She was excellent. The scallop appetizer was fabulous. My husband had the shrimp supreme and I had stuffed shrimp. Wow! They were so amazing. Oh and the bread pudding was delicious too! Highly recommend the Columbia!

Everything was on point and delicious. Highlights of the night were the blueberry butter and bread, ribeye and cheesecake. Would definitely recommend.

Great selection of food for everyone! Food was hot and delicious! Large portions. Service was great. Food came out pretty quick for a Saturday night.

We had a quiet booth in the front of the restaurant across from the beautiful mahogany English style bar. This location was perfect for a private dining experience. The service was exceptional. We were given time to enjoy our meal and not feel rushed which is rare when compared with most restaurants in Gainesville. We ordered a ribeye steak with brandy pepper sauce. Cooked exactly as we requested and served on a warm plate. The jalapeño stuffed appetizer was exceptional. We look forward to going back.

On the busiest night of the year, February 14, 2025 (Valentine’s Day) the host and hostess’s worked their magic via accommodating every guest with a complimentary glass of wine and much pleasantries. Though we were not seated at the time of our reservation, our server Brandi was able to make up for the delay via accommodating us with a warm personality, genuine conversation and much enthusiasm. Brandi really made our Valentine experience outstanding! We’re hopeful, Brandi is able to take care of us again because we were so impressed at how well she did her job!” We look for to dining here again very soon. Thank you for this opportunity! T&E
