Appetizers were excellent, main dish was ok, but I've only eaten there once. I'll definitely go back and try something else.

Cute place and nice atmosphere with amazing drinks, but the food portions are not enough for the price. I got a chicken sandwich that tasted yummy but the filet was so tiny, it was mostly breading. Food is overpriced for what you get. If you’re looking for a great spot to get drinks though, I’d recommend.

Food and drinks were good. Leaving the place my wife beat me to saying itā€¦ā€was that bartender really handsy with the women?ā€ It was the middle aged red haired/bearded male bartender. He was more interested in engaging with the female employees than checking on customers sitting at the bar with empty drinks.
The James management/owner, what’s your fraternization policy?

There were 2 of us on a Sunday at 4pm. We ordered tacos and our waitress didn't get either of our orders correct. She also didn't come back to the table to check on us until we finished and were ready to pay. Atmosphere ok except for the sun shining smack in our eyes the entire time. Food was good except for the over-abundance of (hot) salsa we asked NOT to have put on any of the tacos we ordered.

I came in for a cocktail and ended up making new friends. The atmosphere was fantastic, and the staff were so welcoming.

Great place to grab lunch or dinner. Located upstairs as you walk in the building. They offer a lovely patio to enjoy in the warmer months. The bartenders and wait staff were all so friendly! We had a great time!

It has a cool vibe. Probably great for a small group of 2/4. Not large parties. It was cold and we were sat outside. There were other groups outside with us that were so loud. We could hardly hear each other talk. We were in the half tent with no heaters. Despite there being plenty of room inside to. The food was decent. A few in the group complained that their food was cold. For the price of the food and the size. It wasn’t very filling. The drinks alone were more ice than a Starbucks give. I got maybe 3 sips. It’s not something I would generally come back too. The staff were nice. They easily split the bill between everyone no fuss. The kitchens on the bottom so the elevator is used to bring food up.

A delightful little find in Boise. I loved the low key atmosphere. They serve a perfectly sized menu focusing on quality not quantity. The food is fresh amd flavorful. The bar tender knew her drinks and was friendly and helpful. I am elated to have stumbled onto this place, it is worth the stop. I will definitely be back!

I ordered this on uber eats and it turned my bad day into a good one. The wings and clam chowder were amazing. Their blue cheese dressing is awesome. There are chunks of blue cheese in the dressing. I would add photos, but I ate it too fast.

Stopped in for a lettuce burger and it did not disappoint. Fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly satisfying. The drink I had was great too, even if I can’t remember the name. The vibe was cool and friendly.

I’m new to Idaho and I must say ā€œthis has been the tastiest food I found in Idaho as of dateā€. I’ve been quite disappointed with the lack of flavor in the restaurants; TheJames will be my go to! Management is great! Thank you for putting out tasty, good quality food!
