| - I had high hopes for James Street, but I can only say that it was okay.
The cocktail I ordered, a cucumber gin fizz was delicious and the food I had, the chicken sandwich on a pretzel bun was good, but not anything special. The fried vegetable appetizer was pretty good--especially with the sauces they served with it, but the beer chips were underwhelming. To bill a restaurant as a gastropub, I was hoping for a little more creative flair to the food.
The service was friendly, but sometimes painfully slow. We were there for a little more than 2 hours for a single round of drinks, appetizers, and dinner (one member of our party ordered a second cocktail, but it was never delivered). While I understand the limitations of a small kitchen, I feel like they could have better prepared since we had made a reservation a week ahead of time.
