The James Kitchen & Bar

"This was our 3'rd visit to The James and each time was delicious. The menu items cover a wide gambit for any taste, from pizza to steak. We especially loved the tuna tartare! I do want to mention their star bartender, Lindsey. She is over the top friendly and manages the many drink orders coming in with ease. All in all a fun and inviting place - especially sitting at the bar. We will be back. And oh, be sure to check out their happy hour."

"The first thing I want to really rave about is the fish & chips! Yes, you read that right. Big firm flakes of fish and the batter is perfect. Perfect crust and flavor. I can't wait to go back for more. Best in Idaho for sure. And best in most places! Cool ambience. Great staff. And very good drinks. The patio looks great too, can't wait to sit out there this summer."

"Our server, Ben, was fantastic. Very friendly and helpful with my special request, and my dinner was perfect. I had the prime rib special and ate almost every bite! My husband and son had burgers and said they were SO good as well. We will definitely be going back!!"

"We felt welcomed upon entering, were able to seat ourselves, got menus right away, and had a waitress at our table after just enough time to peruse the drink menu. We arrived just before 5pm, and it's a good thing because 20 minutes later the place was PACKED! The drinks were EXCELLENT. We asked for B-52 shots, which the waitress and bartender had never heard of before, but after explaining that it's a layered shot of Kahlua, Bailey's, and Grand Marnier, they made them for us and were delicious. We also ordered cocktails off the menu and thoroughly enjoyed them - The James and Baby Pink Giraffe. The food was also delicious. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and slightly on the upscale side of casual. The service was good even though it was BUSY. I'm not sure about parking, as we parked on campus for the basketball game, walked to The James for drinks/dinner, and then walked back to campus for the game, but I think there is some parking behind the restaurant."
