Restaurants in Saint James

“This place never disappoints. Last night I sat and had a table filled with dishes that were so delicious. Spare ribs were falling off the bone and seasoned to perfection. Steve makes the finest dishes packed with savory goodness. Love the bread and toppings. Their Pesto pasta with broccoli rabe and sausage is amazing and one of my favorites. Quaint place with wonderful service too. I recommend trying each dish ❤️?”

“First of all to Parker, thanks for making us feel so welcome and being so attentive.

The ambiance was great and the food of course was divine. They have some good options from the prixe fixe menu. Wonderful time.”

“Wonderful place and great service!! Highly recommend it. Beautiful outdoor seating area as well. BYOB.”

“I absolutely love the attention to detail, the care and love of food that these chefs prepare. Love the surprise of not knowing what you get. They work with dietary restrictions.”

“I recently catered a baby shower from here and the guests were raving about the food. So delicious! The process was seamless, staff amazing - I couldn’t have been more pleased! Highly recommend St. James Pizza & Pasta!”

“Best brewery ever. The Adams family makes the best! Accept no substitutions. This is THE place!”

“Generous portions and food is always fresh and very good. Definitely recommened!!”

“First time we were ever here. It’s easily one of the best steak houses on Long Island. The atmosphere is fantastic, the service is as good as you could possibly ask for and the food is incredibly delicious. I can’t say enough good things about this place. Highly recommended”

“I went last night for my anniversary. My husband and I did the tasting menu with the wine pairing. Everything was delicious. The staff was attentive and friendly. I will definitely be back”

“I’ve been on the hunt for authentic tacos, and I’m so happy to say I’ve finally found them right here in St. James. Tacos Cinco de Mayo serves the best tacos in the area hands down. The portions are generous, and the sauce bar is a great touch that lets you customize your plate just the way you like it.

So far, I’ve tried the brisket tostadas and steak tacos both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. I’ve heard rave reviews about the al pastor and birria as well (though I don’t eat pork), and I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re just as amazing.

The taqueria is cozy, with seating for around 8 tables, and their drinks are all made in-house. I really enjoyed the Jamaica and tamarindo, and they also offer horchata and passion fruit.

It’s such a great addition to our town, authentic, flavorful, and welcoming. Highly recommend!”

“Unbelievable breakfast. It’s a must!”

“This is my fiancé and mine official favorite restaurant of st.James and surrounding areas! Always great food and staff, we have even used their catering and the owner Sal always comes over and says hi! Keep it small and make sure you come to this amazing small business. Skip the sushi and big chain restaurants 😂”

“I stopped at Lorenzos Pizza for the 1st time today. The pizza is fantastic and gets the full 5 stars.The middleaged gentleman working counter, however should get 1 million stars.Someone in my car got sick as we pulled up to park, and left a little mess infront of the store, and may need urgent care.I went in and told him what was happening, and asked if he had a bucket, so I can clean it.He did not blink an eye, and insisted I take care of my matters, and he would clean it.He offered me towels, napkins, whatever I needed.His only concern, was for me to attend to ourself, and he would do the rest.I travel to St. James 2x per week for the unforseeable future, and I will be stopping in for lunch frequently.SIR, I didnt get your name, but I cant thank you enough.You are a model of what every human should be like.Thank you”

“This was our first time at Mickey’s! We absolutely loved it and will be back again soon! There were so many great flavors to choose from! The Cookie Monster ice cream is awesome and a huge hit for our son! Everything was great! I highly recommend Mickey’s!”

“Rocco's might possibly be the best pizza on the North shore area from Smithtown to Setauket. I would include Port Jeff, but that would run into another pillar competitor:) The pizza always has a fantastic crust, the heros always have awesome bread, and great meat fillings. Meatballs are absolutely worth getting. Garlic knots, always full of garlic. The sauce is amazing as well. In the mood for a salad? Always fresh, never brown lettuce. Highly recommend any of their specialty slices, chicken Parm, or baked ziti, even grandma slice. Don't forget about the pasta too! I'll add photos next time I'm there.”

“We had dinner there tonight for the first time and it will not be our last. Absolutely adorable back room ambiance and both the food and the service were fantastic! Bella was our waitress and she was outstanding. Patient, extremely knowledgeable and helped us explaining many menu items helping us make our selections. The food was sooooo good. Homemade cornbread to die for. I would give the truffle macaroni and cheese was a 10!!! The garlic Parmesan wings delicious and also the spinach and artichoke pizzetta. We had white sangria that was awesome as well as apple crumb pie Ala mode. Every single item was really honestly so delicious!!!! We enjoyed our experience and will definite back again!”

“Swan and Jeff are AMAZING! The staff is welcoming and fun. They are VERY ACCOMMODATING with any event ❤️”

“Great little local bar with amazing staff and just a really fun place! My band Mach5 played there on St. Patti's Day and had a blast! Highly recommend this bar and look forward to playing there again! Sonny from Mach5 Band NY”

“Reliably great food and friendly service!”

“Great acai bowl and only negative is the wimpy spoon. The experience & price is premium, yet the most important part is a small wimpy spoon. Luckily, the quality of the bowl makes up for it!”

“horrible orange pizza with clowns outside avoid at all costs”

“it is a carvel that gets a great bit of traffic so everything is always nice and fresh.”

“It is a Chinese restaurant specializing in delivery and takeout. The prices are relatively cheap, the food tastes good and the portions are generous. Fried rice, General Tso chicken, and Lo Mein, fried noodles, are also delicious. Fried rice and noodles made in a wok have a more savory taste due to the added fire flavor.”

“Best bakery ever!! Love their donuts! 🍩😋”

“Best Chinese food I've had in years. I've lived in Smithtown for about 5 years, and only just found this place, and boy am I happy I did!!! Food is delicious!!!”

“This place is solid. The food is excellent all the time regardless of take-out, delivery, or dine in. Staff is professional and friendly and they always get the order exactly right. We've tried other places and they just don't compare!”

“Beautiful grounds, historic home, great wine, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff make for an enjoyable time well spent.”

“Only one visit so far so I will adjust if need be. Fried rice was top tier for the area. So was the sesame chicken and the lo mein. The wonton soup was pretty standard but the wonton meat was really good. I think it was ginger in there that made them stand out. My only complaint was the large boneless spareribs at 18$ were very fatty. Could have been the batch so I won’t hold that against them unless it happens again.”

“I want to extend a huge thank you to Leo for inviting us to his fantastic Tex-Mex restaurant. Del Fuego in St. James boasts a stunning interior and a lively atmosphere that perfectly complements its innovative menu.

The Skirt Steak Fajitas was a standout, featuring a bold and unexpected combination of flavors. The apple empanada with coconut ice cream was the perfect sweet ending to an amazing meal.

Our server, Sarah, was exceptional. Her friendly demeanor and attentiveness made us feel right at home. She even recommended the perfect to-go dish for our kids, the churros!

From the moment we arrived to the time we left, we were thoroughly impressed by Del Fuego. It's a must-visit for anyone looking for a fresh take on Tex-Mex cuisine.”

“What a great find! The worst thing about this place was trying to pick a latte flavor. The crunch berry one tasted just like the cereal and the almond milk was frothed to perfection! Service was also quick on a rainy busy Sunday.”

“Great food great services good astosophere”

“So clean chic and the staff is great 👍”

“Very friendly staff!”

“What a great little place with an amazing outdoor section that’s warm to sit outside and has a beautiful flowery scenery!! Nick the host was amazing, so personable and knowledgeable with the wines! So tentative and kept checking to see if we needed anything! Also the pizza was sooo good!! We will definitely be back! What a close by hidden little gem!”

“Anything Lucian prepares for the day.”
