Review Magic Bistro - El Paso

Cutest little restaurant, it's in the sweetest little shopping center. There's a christmans shop on the left of the restaurant, absolutely loved it! Can't wait to show this place to my mom!

Loved it here, great service! Food was delicious, our waitress was fabulous and the atmosphere very relaxing and pleasant. Well deserved 5 stars.

This place was packed when we visited and yet the service was fast and professional. The restaurant is slightly hidden and is very cute both inside and out. We ordered a burger and a sandwich and they were both delicious.

The Magic Bistro was a tasty, almost small town experience that brought back memories of my home town while also bringing in some new experiences. Food: $$ Decently priced lunch special that came with a soup, house salad, and half sandwich. I got the Reuben which had a delicate taste yet filled with meat and sauerkraut. The sandwich I felt was fairly balanced between both that left me knowing I would definitely be back again. The soup was chicken and wild rice and was decent. The soup consistency was thick and creamy but lacked much in the category of explosive flavor. Atmosphere: Very small town restaurant feel where the inside seems a little claustrophobic and outdated with mural painted walls, old wine cabinets with mirrors to make the restaurant seem larger. The layout inside is a little drab and I didn't really enjoy it much though I will say the outdoor seating area seemed sublime and will definitely come back to try that out. Overall: The food was good and atmosphere was strange but nostalgic. Though most dishes lacked in flavor, they were good enough to make me want to come back. I will definitely be back for the food but will probably try to sit outside.

Magic bistro was recommended to me and was not disappointed whatsoever. Everything exceeded my expectations Our waitress Brittany was phenomenal. All the food tasted great. I will definitely be back!

It's rare that you go to a place and want to try multiple menu items. Most of the time just one or two items jump out at you, but with Magic Bistro there were so many tempting foods to choose from. Between my wife and I, we tried eight different items and they were all (with few exceptions) absolutely delicious. We got the brisket apricot chipotle wrap, smoked turkey raspberry wrap, wild rice soup, chicken tortilla soup, house salad with raspberry vinaigrette dressing, key lime pie with a pistachio crust, pumpkin bread and zucchini bread. The wraps were delicious with to-die-for chipotle sauces and tender flavorful meats. The salad dressing was so good, we bought some to bring home. The soups were very good (probably wouldn't classify as great). The key lime pie was the best that we've ever had. The pumpkin bread was good; not great and the zucchini bread was a bit disappointing (my homemade zucchini bread vs their homemade zucchini bread was not even on the same playing field. The outside dining was cute with plant life all around and the inside dining looked to be near fine dining atmosphere. All of the staff and servers were very friendly. The food came out very quickly and promptly and each succession right as the first portion was finished (salad came right as the soup was finished, wraps came right as the salad was finished and deserts came a few minutes after it was ordered. This will definitely be a place that we return to often even though we drove from Las Cruces NM to get it. I'd highly recommend this place.

This place is a gem. The basil Turkey and apricot Turkey sandwiches are sooo good. The homemade potato chips are a perfect pairing. The key lime pie was good but could do without the crunchies on top. The brownie is also a great dessert.

Edit 8/3/22 I made it and John was nice & food good. Highly recommend the key lime pie! I haven't personally visited but I had a personal experience via email with a owner and it was pleasant. Very helpful and 100% service-oriented. I plan on having Brunch this weekend to get the whole experience. Thank you Magic Bistro

Such an intimate place! This is for any occasion. The food, drinks were wonderful! I would totally recommend Magic Bistro to make any moment special.

Hidden jewel in El Paso. The wines are delicious ( well the sweet one are because I like sweet) the sandwiches are yummy and filling that I could only eat half. I suggest half sandwich with salad.

They have healthy choices on the menu but I got the Bistro Burger! The burger was delicious. Passion Fruit Tea was refreshing. Very warm and welcoming environment and great customer service!

I initially visited while I was in search of a wedding venue. I talked to John about options available for my event after we enjoyed delicious appetizers, wine and very courteous service. The restaurant has a picturesque patio and an overall very welcoming atmosphere. It was obvious that there was effort put in every detail, from the cleanliness to the food presentation. I walked out knowing I wanted to get married there. There were a few months between the first visit and the actual wedding. I visited a few more times and every time I left satisfied with the experience. Now, for the wedding... John said "let us know what you need, and we'll take care of the rest," and that's exactly what happened. Everything ran smoothly and it went as planned. He partnered with my florist (Diana from Adobe Rose) whom is located in the same business plaza, and other friends to make sure everything was was good to go. I am very happy how everything turned out. My only complaint is that it went by too fast! *Photo Credit to RaVisuals

CONGRATULATIONS, MB on making our VDay night so special. We were married here in 2021 and really reminisced. All 5 courses were creatively new and fun perfection! It really was an adventure in flavor! We had the salmon and the beef tenderloin for the main course and were impressed by both! Courses were appropriately sized as well. Brandy, our server, was so sweet yet prompt and professional. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out!!! Bravo and Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Overall a very nice experience. We both had the turkey for kasha sandwich with apricot Chipotle mayo. Very tasty very popular amongst the patrons around us! But very filling. We never made it to dessert which was a shame because we really wanted to have the lemon pie. We ate outside apparently, nobody wanted to eat inside ( it was empty! Only one table was occupied) so there was a wait, but it was all good. Nice and relaxed Sunday lunch. It's always a treat to shop around the little stores unfortunately on Sundays everyone's closed but the store inside the bistro was charming with lots of local artists' art and a lot of one of a kind items including jewelry, print art and crafts. On the patio you can even have your little pooch if he stays underneath your table or chair. How can you beat that?!
