“My friend and I discovered this gaming cafe located in the corner of an almost empty parking lot. Since the start of the pandemic, we've been gaming here and we haven't done that bad. Not big wins, but not to many losses either. We both agree that Kolinkos manager (lady who tends the bar for majority of time, always has a smile) is such a friendly person and she does her best.customer services is good and our experience has been that our experience has been a positive one and I hope more people start to give this place a try. You'll find a very nice lady who tends majority of the time. Its a possibility that family will come and help her out by covering her Shift here and there. After this it cool to see them join in the fun and pay. come here often as the peopleyone is very welcoming. has been 4 star treatment“

“My family had the most amazing experience at The James on 8/21/24 for my mother’s birthday❤️ I called earlier that day to discuss her severe food allergies and restrictions and spoke to the chef Steve who is amazing! He is knowledgeable and went above and beyond! He offered to make her fresh mashed potatoes and she asked if they had sweet potatoes. He stated no, but he’d run out and get her one. I told him he didn’t have to do that but he insisted stating it wasn’t a big deal! He also made her a birthday dessert that she could eat and came out to our table to deliver her food!! I was so impressed by his thoughtfulness and the food was absolutely delicious! Thank you Steve and thank you Geno the server for taking such good care of a high maintenance table. We appreciate you both and can’t wait to come back❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

Charcuterie

“The ambiance of the establishment is undoubtedly cozy, and the service is warm and attentive, creating a welcoming experience. This type of venue is a much-needed addition to the area, and it holds great potential.

However, there are a couple of areas where improvements could elevate the experience further. As a wine enthusiast, I found the selection to be somewhat underwhelming. While the current options are acceptable, they lean toward the average rather than showcasing truly standout wines. Expanding and refining the wine list would greatly enhance the overall appeal for those who appreciate quality offerings.

Additionally, the pricing feels slightly above what one might consider standard. For instance, two glasses of wine accompanied by a small charcuterie board—featuring prosciutto, blue cheese, jam, and olives—came to $90 excluding tip. While the service remains commendable, a better balance between price and value could improve the overall experience.

In summary, this is a charming place with excellent service, but there is room for refinement, particularly in wine selection and pricing. With a few adjustments, it has the potential to become a standout destination in the area.“

“As a Chef critic i felt this place had a nice atmosphere and friendly service. I had the impression they were slightly understaffed and looks to be family run. The food was decent, however, the plating and some of the dishes were sloppy. A little pricey for the food that was served. I still gave a 4 star as the waitstaff was friendly and excellent.
