    Pork chop with bacon jam
    Kelli H.

    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.

    We drove from Tallahassee and the food and service were top notch . Everyone was super friendly and its always reassuring to see the owners helping out. The ambiance is very modern chic. We sat at the bar and Tiffany was very sweet and informative and made excellent drinks The Oysters are super fresh, full of flavor and its always best when you get to pick where they come from. The Sticky Ribs were insanely good, definitely stole the show. The Fig And Duck Pizza was very outside of the box thinking and i love a chef that experiments with his menu. It was light and the flavors were subtle, definitely a great option for lunch but we wish we tried something more rich like the risotto. You must save room for dessert because The Bread Pudding was to die for so soft and fluffy not overpoweringly sweet. Overall, we fell in love with the food and excited to come back for more!

    Brussel sprouts and sticky ribs

    Absolutely delicious. One of the best meals I've had in a while. The Brussels sprouts and sticky ribs were phenomenal. The scallops are to die for. The bread pudding was exceptional. The star was that spicy margarita. It was perfection. My new go to spot. Great job.

    Ahh, St. James, what a wonderful surprise we happened upon. We were downtown for Victorian Christmas and knew finding anywhere to eat in that area would result in a multi hour wait. I asked one of the shop owners for a recommendation that was a little bit away from the craziness of the event and he recommended St. James. We were able to get a last minute reservation and off we went! Our server Kelly was so cute, she had the most charming personality and made sure to check on us often. The decor and atmosphere of St. James is BEAUTIFUL, we all ooh-ed and ahhh-ed when we walked in. We all got cocktails, a few appetizers and entrees. The standout dishes were the seafood risotto, everyone gushed over how good it was and the duck pizza. The fries get an honorable mention. This was definitely one of our favorite spots of our trip, we were so thankful for the kind local steering us to St. James!

    SEC and latte

    This place was so good it made my whole day !! It's gorgeous inside and I wanted to order one of everything on display. We ended up getting lattes that were perfect, and yogurt bowl and sausage, egg, and cheese croissant that crushed. Also, we got the beignets and our toddler loved them! We had to get a second one for the road for him. The owner and the other gentleman working couldn't have been friendlier. We're so excited to go back for dinner:)

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

    Scallops are excellent! Bread pudding is a must. Some growing pains with staff but you must try this culinary treat.
