Magenta Restaurant

I admire this restaurant! They give excellent meals, their menu is nice, The chef in that spot is a real pro, I love very much eating all their dishes. The dishes are consistently fresh and tasty, the attitude towards the guests is very good too. I often eat in this place and I was never unsatisfied. I highly recommend it.

After years in the Corvallis area, finally took the opportunity to dine at Magenta and they didn't dissapoint. The rice crepe is a staple for them and it was good. The filling was fresh veggies with a delicious savory sauce inside. The crepe was a little dry and the sauce on top seemed a bit too much like mainstream ranch. The stake was a much better choice. Cooked really nicely, juicy, tender and a delicious sauce to boot. The bun appetizer was quite yummy as well. The orange mousse was good, but had a bit too strong an orange extract flavor as opposed to a fresh hint of orange I prefer. All in all a great meal with warm, friendly, attentive service at a reasonable price.

Excellent choices, dining in is available. The menu offers full meals and one can order dim sum style also. Everything from vegetarian to awesome meat dishes. Cocktails are an art here. The ambiance is comfortable, great for 2 and larger parties also. Wait staff is knowledgeable about all dishes and cordial. $5 plates to Chefs choice $28, many flavors, something for discerning palates. I get a full lunch for under or near $10. Enjoy!

The first time I came with two friends and we all ordered different vermicelli dishes. I expected them to be all somewhat similar, but instead they were each completely different and every one was delicious. Recently I went again and ordered the pho, lemongrass beef & lamb meatballs, vegetarian rolls, and a cabbage salad (I skip peanuts on food because I think peanut flavor overwhelms other food flavors), and also the bao. Everything tasted excellent, veges were super fresh, and the presentation for even their simplest items is beautiful. Be patient after ordering your food; food this good isn't sitting on a steam table. Corvallis is a cool little town, and having this gem gives me another great reason to drive up there!
