Went for an anniversary dinner and it was delicious. The roast chicken and steak frites were perfectly cooked. We also discovered they have a happy hour with burgers available for $10, so definitely worth another visit. The space is a little small and in the heart of the Gaslamp, so consider making a reservation.

Saint James French Diner is a gem serving delicious French cuisine. All tables are good, but window tables are extra special. The service is attentive, and the staff is friendly. The menu offers a unique burger and steak frites, both of which are exceptional. The chocolate soufflé is a standout, making it a must-visit destination for dessert lovers. Recently, customers praised the croquet for its great flavor and the espresso (Americano), which was described as probably the best in a while. The burgers are large, double patty, and well worth the $10, with the Parisienne burger being a little sloppy but still tasty. The breakfast vibe is cool, with excellent service and wonderful food. The avocado toast was one of the best and French toast was gorgeous too. Lunch is pretty good, with delicious French fries and a variety of tasty burgers, including the Parisienne. The filet steak frites is a steal at $42. The roast chicken and steak frites were perfectly cooked, and the happy hour burgers at $10 are a great deal. The DUCK confit was enjoyed, as was the CESEAR salad. The CHOCOLATE MOUSSE finished a 3-course meal. The space is a little small and in the heart of the Gaslamp, so making a reservation is wise. Parking can be challenging, so visitors are advised to allow extra time. The staff is friendly and attentive, acknowledging special occasions, and many plan to return.
