Magnolias Smoke Incident

Magnolias on East Bay Street had a smoke scare on June 26th, prompting eight fire engines and a rescue squad to respond before 5 PM—no flames, but the street was shut down briefly. It’s not the first time: a 2021 kitchen fire shut them down until early 2022, and another fryer fire in 2012. A beloved local staple since 1990, this incident serves as a stark reminder of how quickly things can go wrong—and how much the city’s food scene owes to this iconic spot.
