Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Warrenton

Great presentation, great flavors, great service. Valentine's Day three course plus wine pairing is pricey, BUT the regular multi-course price fixe options are reasonable (i.e., not on holidays). Yum!

Excellent ambience, super fresh, tasty and served food. Our host-waiter Quamrul was excellent, very polite, and he has knew exactly what was on the menu, to explain the details. We come here often and of course we will continue to come. The team at the front desk/reception is excellently organized. They know their job. Congratulations.

Once again, Magnolias at the Mill hit a home run. This time with their Valentine's Day dinner. The Prix Fixe menu was very good, with quite a selection. Service, as usual, was very good. We weren't rushed through our meal, and the timing was good. Our waiter, Bryan, did an outstanding job. Friendly and capable, he was willing to explain the dishes to us. Honorable mention goes to Chad. Although he didn't have our table, he recognized us from a past party we had there and was very welcoming. Of course, Alex at the front desk is always a welcome sight, a gracious and welcoming presence. Tyler Barrett was overseeing it all, and everything seemed to he running smoothly. Many thanks to Magnolias and everyone who made this holiday dinner special for my wife and I.

I had the crabcake and my wife had the parmesan trout and both were fantastic! Her trout was very favorable with the spices and parmesan coating. The served me a real Maryland flavored crabcake. The coleslaw was the best I ever had because it wasn't too sweet, and you could taste the vinegar which was the perfect tart flavor that was needed. Many coleslaw recipes taste cheap and too sweet but theirs was balanced. The fries rival McDonald's fries and before you laugh think about how perfect McDee's makes their french fries. The special Valentine Strawberry and Chocolate Mousse cake was a perfect ending to our meal. It had a little scoop of vanilla ice cream, strawberry sauce and white chocolate heart stuck into the cake. We will bring back our family in our second visit. Plus, our server was the best!

All the hype was true -- a fabulous dinner and service. Beautiful dining room, nice and quiet. I have various food allergies and they were so attentive to them, without creating a big deal about it -- just making the substitutions necessary. I absolutely would recommend Harrimans as a destination dinner!
