James St Bar + Kitchen

As we were dining with a group, we preordered which worked well as all our meals came out at the same time, soon after arriving. I found the lunch specials to be value for money, however the cocktails were expensive (noting it was personal preference to order them!). There were times there was a delay in refilling of water glasses, etc, so having a jug on the table would have been beneficial, however the waitstaff were attentive overall. The tables were very rocky/unstable, due to the tops not being secured properly (rather than an unstable base that we could have propped up). We ended up swapping one out as it was impractical to try and eat from. The venue also let us split the bill, which was most appreciated and a rarity in today's hospitality scene. Overall, it was a pleasant way to end the week.

Restaurant was perfect for our group of 14 as is was not busy and not noisy. Staff were great.

yummy food and great service. Thank you very much for looking after us so well.

Couldn’t receive the bottle of wine we had ordered because the staff had lost the keys to the wine cupboard . So we had our main course without any drinks

Food is served fresh in a quiet setting to get some work done.

Bella was the most incredible service person We’ve had in a while. Great food and ambiance. Mariana?? Was lovely too.

Friendly service, quiet environment good for working lunch, small portion fish and chips.

Great service, yummy food and I recommend this restaurant. It's was great nite

Food very simple, wasn't over hot either. Went for an anniversary dinner, nothing special at all.

The food was delicious. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to guve great service.

Friendly and quality service and food was really, really good and value for money. Very reasonable prices and great furnitute and atmosphere.

We got to the bar to find that it does not open for lunch on Sundays!! They graciously agreed to let us dine there and the good and service was very good

seems like a place that you wouldn't look twice at but was the best food i've ever had.

Nice & comfortable dining hall that we enjoyed having our afternoon drinks for our friend's birthday

Great food, fantastic lunchtime specials. I would recommend this restaurant.

Food was prompt and delicious. Staff were incredibly helpful and offered great service

Service was great. The food we ordered was really nice

Refreshingly cool on a hot night, lovely quick service and great food.

Great food and service! Will definitely be back again with my husband!

Great restaurant for before and after Fringe shows. Good service

It was surprisingly very quiet on the night we visited. We were seated immediately. Our server, Thomas, was exceptional - friendly, knowledgeable and went above and beyond for a particular drink option. The food was good, but average especially for the prices. I like that there is a bar attached to have a pre- or post-dinner drink. Definitely worth a visit.

Good value and food and service Was good for dinner

Excellent fresh food, great portions. The staff are very assistive and friendly. Nice atmosphere. Comfortable seating. Excellent service. Cater perfectly given current times of ConVid with the distancing of seating. Safe atmosphere. Fantastic time had.

Great service excellent food great location. Not much more I can say.

Great service, very good atmosphere considering the restrictions are still in place

Lovely staff and amazing food, the salmon portion was a bit on the small side, but overall great place to grab an expresso martini

Excellent place to dine . Second time to be there and the service was impeccable and the food is always fresh . My favourite is the baby Barrumundi and soft shell grab . If you havent been yet , make this a priority visit . Definitely going back again !!!!!

Food and service are amazing as usual. I will keep going back and will keep bringing friends. All the friends I brought there have brought their families as well. Good food and Good value.

Service was friendly but didn’t give us a chance to order drinks before ordering our meal. The cheese burger was over cooked.

Food was pretty good but service could be improved on, staff were rather cold

Came with another couple. Food was great, portions large, menu with a good variety. It was very busy, so took a while to have our order taken, but food came out quite quickly. Waitstaff friendly and did a great job. It was a bit noisy - due to being pretty full, but also quite a loud table nearby, so unavoidable. We will be back as there was a bit of food envy watching the other plates go by!

Really good service. Would definitely return any time. Thank you

I have always had the deep fried Barramundi and fried rice when ever I go there and they cook that to perfection. Love it. My friend had the curry and that is good too. However, don’t have the lenguini, it is tasteless and very dry. Worse lenguini i’ve Ever had. Staff are very friendly and attentive but despite having been there almost every week in the past 3 months (sometimes even twice a week) The lady there who always serve us never remembers us. She always asks if we’ve been there before! But always friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is always clean and the staff are always welcoming.

Bonus that we got 50% off as part of the Fringe Festival. Enjoyed our after dinner show too :-)

The service and food was amazing we have booked for next weekend :0)

My second visit for dinner with Client. Was not as good as my first visit ( 12 Nov-which was very good). Waiters seemed more disorganized last night, asked if we wanted to order before we got menu's, there were no specials (meal with house wine that we had in Nov), and out client ordered a Lemon Lime Bitters, but never received it. I asked them to that off when we paid. On the plus side, Food was really good, the unexpected discount (an offer which has apparently has been going for a while but I didn't know about it) was very welcom. we will be back, I'm sure.

Fantastic selection! Well priced, really nice decor. You can even make your own freshly squeezed juices. Great staff.

Great specials on the grill. We had the scotch fillet with the house pour and it was very satisfying!

friendly wait staff, fast service, yummy food and delicious espresso martini

Good promotional prices for its new menu, will go back again.

Very enjoyable; good food; and we got the 50% discount.

I love James Street Kitchen. I have been there many times with friends and have recommended it to other friends who have also visited James James Street Kitchen. Food is amazing, specially their whole barrumandi, fried rice, pork ribs. Service is fantastic, quick and very friendly and attentive staff. The place relaxed and welcoming. Just this month, I have visited the restaurant 4 times and once last month. Reserved under my friend’s names but I brought them there. So you can probably say, this is my favourite restaurant. I will be visiting more Specially with their half price specials.

The service was efficient and friendly and the food was delicious.

Food and drinks was sensational and the service was spot on even though the restaurant had a lot of unexpected walk-ins. Z was amazing and was the star of the restaurant overlooking all aspects of food & beverage.

Great food and service. Nice atmosphere and excellent customer service.

Very clean and organised restaurant. Our waitress Holly was excellent attentive and courteous despite being very busy. Our meal came quickly and was very nice. Only complaint was toilet entry door which was directly behind our table constantly banging needs adjusting. Otherwise pleasant visit.

Had a great night and would recommend the food. Great service as well.

Great food, and excellent service. Wine list was too small though, and paper napkins let them down.

My friends and I enjoyed our lunch very much. We just wished there were a few more diners to help the atmosphere. It's a lovely, stylish dining room and well worth a visit. We'll definitely be back.
