    Ribeye steak dinner- sub potato for parm fries and mushrooms for a ceasar salad
    Dez W.

    Aite yall so look lol being from Thomasville its always a favorite thing to see the new restaurants developing around the city. I like several hours away and travel back to visit family/friends. I became aware of St. James simply by riding by and seeing the crowd the night before. The next day my parents and I chose to dine. The restaurant is beautiful and the kitchen is perfect for the proteins they serve. Flaunting a wood fire stove as well as a traditional pizza oven. The bar is well stocked and lit well, becomes a nice focus point in the dinning room area. Our reservation was for 5:30pm and they legit dont open the doors until 530 lol we were sat immediately and waited on. The server was nice and very accommodating. We shared the Brussels sprout appetizer and it was uniquely plated. Shredded seasoned well and presented in a circle topped with pecorino Cheese. Seasoning was well (4.5/5) a little lemon zest or juice would make this a 5. My mother had and enjoyed the waygu burger and rated it (4/5). My father and I had ribeyes, his well down, mine medium well. NOW, the steak was good. Well seasoned and cooked to temp. BUT, it was the smallest $90 steak I've ever seen lol . I give it 5/5 on taste, but value for money 3/5. A nice touch would be to blow torch the butter on top of the steak as mine was cold and ended up not melting. Im thrilled a restaurant like this exist in my city. I literally grew up minutes away from this restaurant on Raleigh Avenue. Yall pull up and keep em busy! Lets support fine dinning in the ville!

    Pork chop with bacon jam

    St. James is my absolute favorite restaurant on "date nights"! We've been going for the better part of a year and it truly never disappoints! I always get the same entree, but when you see the pictures, you will understand. The bone-in pork chop is a thick cut, topped with bacon jam and minced scallions. It is a melt in your mouth cut of meat and can be cut with a butter knife! It's that tender! Their au gratin potatoes are the perfect blend of cheese and cream served in your own cast iron crock straight from the oven. Grilled broccolini is served along side of this delicious masterpiece of an entree! He got the grilled redfish served over a bed of creamy cheese grits nestled in a tomato cream sauce that was excellent. Not too rich and not too overpowering. Once again the perfect blend of flavors all in one entree. Everything is grilled over an open flame enhancing the flavor of the dishes. The service is great! We've never had a bad time and the staff is friendly, helpful, and truly on point! Whether you sit at the bar or at a table, you will have the best service. It is more of an upscale menu but can be a casual environment. Kind of like 'Cheers' where everyone knows your name!

    The St. James Restaurant in Thomasville, Georgia is a restaurant we have passed on countless trips from Tallahassee to Thomasville for a day of shopping and dining. Why we never stopped to enjoy this restaurant until recently, I'll never know. It's situated on US 319 before you actually reach the downtown Thomasville area. Most of our trips have centered around the Broad Street, Jackson Street, Remington Avenue, Smith Avenue, and US 84 shopping areas. This restaurant is completely modern and totally charming. When you enter the restaurant, you are immediately greeted by a bakery case that implicitly reminds you to make sensible choices to leave room for dessert! There is a full bar available and also seating at the bar for refreshments or dining or both. There is plenty of restaurant dining room seating in the main room and there's also a more private area which I surmise is used for the evening overflow of dinner or private functions. Our host and server both greeted us promptly and courteously. Servers are uniformed in jeans and white shirts, so the atmosphere is completely casual. My dining companion ordered the hot chicken sandwich, including a hot fried chicken breast, apple slaw, hot honey, pickles, on a brioche bun. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, including a herb marinated chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, truffle mayo on a brioche bun. Both sandwiches were served with fries, including pecorino, truffle, garlic, and herbs. The sandwiches and fries were delicious and served hot from the kitchen! Although the dessert case beckoned us, we had not saved room for dessert and because we were still doing additional shopping we were unable to keep desserts fresh in a very hot car on a hot summer day. This only reinforces our desire to return to this restaurant and perhaps just for the dessert course next time. What a lovely restaurant option in Thomasville. The sandwich options make a wonderful lunch with friends or family. We will certainly return to this restaurant again! Kudos to the owners who have found such a warm caring group of people to serve the Thomasville community!

    This is the entrance and they have an assortment of phenomenal pastries made by the pastry chef.

    The food is good I think over priced for location but each to their own. I would think maybe best deserts in Thomasville.

True to the quote- I got my call right at 45 minutes. We had a party of 8- me and John, my sister, her hubby and her 2 girls & my mom and her man. I put in an appetizer order for cheese curds right away, knowing I wanted to try them- but when you order appetizers, service slows. They don't take your order for regular food right away. Meanwhile, bathroom situation here is one stall rooms. AKA- one at a time- that was a little brutal. Cheese curds were phenominal- only better I've had were in Milwaukee! Food was ordered and it took forever and a day- my poor niece didn't get her food till everyone was finished eating. She actually left and stood in line for the bathroom to avoid watching us all eat. I felt horrible for her. Meanwhile- everyone's food was fabulous. Except mine. John and I ordered the philly cheesesteak. There was not nearly enough meat. The burgers that hit the table- huge, juicy and cheesey. The charcuterie board- spectacular! The bowl of soup huge and filling. Our cheesesteak- bread and a ton of cheese and over cooked meat that didn't meet the ratio of meat-bread-cheese. For a very small, curated menu- I expected everything to be delicious. I was genuinely sad that our meal failed. And the wait on Addy's lunch was unacceptable. Those 2 things bumped a 4 star review down, I actually selected 4 when I started typing and then changed it to 3 because recalling this memory to write this up... sigh. I love supporting small. These are fixable issues.

Plates were removed on a timely basis. It's a refreshing and cool spot to give one respite from the southern humidity and heat. A definite gem for lunch!
