I had a great time at the James Room. It was my first time there and I will be back! The crab cakes and craft cocktails were amazing.

The chef Jalliea (sp) was so kind to indulge in our questions and greet us. Her attention to detail, expertise abd passion for cuisine and the over all fine dining and expansive knowledge was amazing. I will definitely be back for the kale salad w/ salmon and the broccoli was to Die for. The staff was welcoming accommodating and the bar tender owner and chefs ...Black excellence at its finest. I will be here every chance I get. My sib loved her drinks and overall cute quaint Solar return celebration!

Nice ambience...but cocktail menu and service were very underwhelming, leaves a lot to be desired....

The vibes are realllly cool at the James room, really great hidden speakeasy spot. Great for date nights and nights out on the town.

Pros- The spot is definitely ornate, made to feel as an exclusive, intimate lounge. The music was spot on, thanks to DJ, giving life with every note. The Harissa shrimp was seasoned just right & the Espresso martini tasted awesome. Cons- I ordered another drink- pineapple + rum + something else. It tasted watered down. I sent it back & noticed another person had ordered the same & sent their's back. Perhaps, the soda was flat, or they mistook the rum for something else. Two others in my party ordered drinks & waited 40-45 min for them. The place was packed and there was only Jordan, who warned us to be patient, but acted like an angry addict when settling the bill. Initially, he attempted to charge me for the watered down drink + my friends drinks. The bartender was a black young lady & made sure to take cafe of the entire room, as she revealed to us that Jordan didn't tell her the drink order. Overall, I believe if the place was fully staffed, most things could have been averted.

The host and our server, Jordan, truly made this an amazing experience. We were sat almost immediately, the server was very busy but still gave us a lot of attention, and food was surprisingly fast, fresh, and delicious. Will recommend to anyone

Music didn't match the vibe. I mean I like 90 and 2000s rap but not what I anticipated for a cool speakeasy.

This was my friends first visit and my 2nd. The staff were kind and attentive. Loved the vibes and music for sure. Will recommend to my friends.

The James Room: great vibe, perfect BeltLine access. My Atlanta speakeasy go-to for any night – ladies', date, or solo!
Our experience here was amazing! We went on a Tuesday and they had a dj playing good R&B music. It was a little loud for it to be a chill bar, but it was a lot of fun and everyone was dancing in their respective areas. Our service was amazing. Very attentive—And they give you water without asking! Huge plus for me. The Peach Cobbler was our go to drink. Definitely recommend! I had a reservation set, but most days I'm sure you can walk in. It was the perfect amount of people.

Great late night vibe for drinks.

I love a good speakeasy. Cocktails were great. I didn't eat so I can't speak to the food this time. The music was a bit loud. I took a date there for a nightcap and we literally were yelling but were only 3 feet from each other. The music was cool, just waaaaaaaay too loud.

I just went tonight and was compelled to write a a review. it was 11:30 knowing the place closes at 1am. Mind you i went out of my way to participate, but why did the front room attendant say I couldn't spend money in the spot because the dj wanted to wrap up early. I eagerly drove there to enjoy the vibes but to my dismay we were turned around 🤷🏾♂️

Very nice small lounge. More for couples or girls nite out. Great atmosphere, food is delicious and great customer service. Very small menu so don't go starving.
