We got the bone marrow canoes. I've never had bone marrow like this. It's was tasty. So buttery and warm and with the sweet bacon. It was delicious. We tried both soups. The French onion was so cheesy. The tomatoe soup was perfect with the toast. The ribeye was cooked to perfect medium. Overall very great experience.

I'm visiting from Oregon, and this is actually my 2nd time, albeit my first review of the place. It was very pleasant and the food was delicious. Gab, our server was cool. The portobello fries were excellent.

St. James Brasserie is one of Reno's gems that keeps delivering. We've been coming here since they opened, and while there have been ownership and menu changes over the years, it's still one of our go-to places to go for a night out that won't break the bank or to take out-of-town guests. The menu is good, the beer is good, the venue is unique, and the service is also consistently terrific. Notably, the staff is very kind to children. Even though our kids are older now, in years past it was always such a relief to be able to go out for a nice meal and not feel like a burden to the staff. We recently hosted a large private event here, and it went so well. Everyone said they had a great time, and the buffet food was pretty darn good. Drink selection was terrific and isn't just beers -- in fact, the tasty mocktails were one of the top choices of our party. Service was friendly and on point, as it is even when we come just with our family for a regular meal. Many thanks especially to Chloe, Kelsey, Adele, and the bar team who took great care of us and our guests.

My wife and I have been here twice now and it's never disappointed us in the least. This last time was for brunch and I had the flank steak and eggs and the steak was delicious! My wife had a dish with a poached egg in a tomato sauce base with feta cheese and it was amazing. We also shared a vanilla Belgian waffle which was one of the best waffles we've ever had, period. So many places just disappoint and we've left feeling that eating out is not worth it anymore, but Brasserie Saint James was a great experience - thank you!

This is a great restaurant for both beer and food! The ambiance is wonderful, on the rustic side and with a really nice outdoor eating area. Our waitress was very charming and gave excellent recommendations! I really enjoyed the pork with kraut on mashed potatoes. The seafood jambalaya was excellent too! We will definitely go back! Back again and it was great! The Argentine Flank Steak was truly amazing!!

First off, the service is amazing. From the bartenders to the service staff. Add the breakfast pizza which was awesome. My friend had eggs with toast and a side salad. We come to Reno every 2 or 3 months from Sacramento and this place is by far the best place we've eaten in downtown Reno for a long time. Keep up the good work PS..... I forgot my pizza left over and they brought it out to the parking lot

I’m giving this a 4 star because the food was yummy, the waitress was knowledgeable about the food and drink menu, and the food/drink was delivered in a timely manner However I’m not going to lie….the tap water tastes funky and they don’t have any reasonable alternatives….the crab dip has tuna fish, but I can’t prove it…it definitely ain’t crab though. I also think the Brussels sprouts are on fire but they give you ‘3’ whole Brussels sprouts cut into quarters 😅….at the end of the day I’d eat there again.

Amazing food, yummy beers! We brought our 4 friends here yesterday for brunch and everyone enjoyed themselves and especially their food. We ordered 3 flights so we could try all of the beers. The bone marrow canoes were amazing and the bacon jam was incredible - enough to share between us 6. We ordered the pretzels with beer cheese x2, chicken & waffles x2, pressed cubano sandwiches x2, the 2 eggs breakfast. Everything was delicious. Our friends can’t wait to come back. It’s our favorite place to come to for beers and great food.

Brasserie St. James is a solid choice if you're looking for a satisfying meal and a good drink. I've been consistently impressed with the quality of their food, particularly their chicken and steak salads and sandwiches. The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, and the flavors are well-balanced. They definitely know how to put together a delicious and filling meal. The drinks at Brasserie St. James are also noteworthy. They complement the food nicely and are almost as good as the food itself, which is high praise! It's clear they put thought and effort into their drink menu. My only minor critique would be the wings. In my experience, they tend to be a little overcooked, which can make them a bit dry. It's a small thing, and doesn't detract too much from the overall experience, but it's worth mentioning. Overall, Brasserie St. James is a great spot for a casual lunch or dinner. The food is consistently good, the drinks are excellent, and the atmosphere is pleasant. I would definitely recommend it, especially if you're in the mood for a tasty salad or sandwich. Just maybe skip the wings. Staff is always friendly and fast.

Came in for lunch on a Friday and got seated right away. It got busy during lunchtime, but there was never a wait for a table. Service was excellent! Evan was a gem. Very attentive, friendly, and personable. We ordered beer flights. Six 4oz pours for $19 was a great deal. We stayed so long, we rolled into happy hour and enjoyed some happy hour beers! They have a great happy hour menu that starts at 2pm. The beer options are great! Food was delicious! We both ordered the Lobster Roll with Cajun fries. Loved their spicy ketchup. I was pleased to find out they had a gluten free bun option. The sandwich was full of flavor, the lobster was tasty, the bun was soft, buttery, and toasted on the grill. The meal was perfectly filling. Everything I'd hope for in a tasty lobster roll. They have a great menu with a bunch of different offerings, something for everyone. Can't wait to come back and try their brunch menu. Loved the ambiance. We sat in front of the fire place and enjoyed our lunch. Loved the cozy European pub vibe! They played great music. They offer a bunch of different seating areas. Definitely a great fun spot, highly recommend. Be sure to check out their daily specials.

We came for lunch after new owner took over. We made reservations, but definitely did not need them. We came early, but by the time we left, still only a couple tables taken. I had the lunch special that day .. wings, which were very good. But the other lunch special Roasted Cauliflower was not available, so my friend had the tomato soup. She enjoyed it very much, but it looked too thick for a soup to me. On the whole, totally enjoyed our lunch and would definitely come back.

I do not recommend the chicken and waffles. The waffle was a little rubbery, and the chicken was like pre-frozen chicken tenders that were heated up; it was nothing like the other Yelp photos. It was a huge dissapointment. There were two beers that I recommend: the Imperial Cider from Blake Hard Cider Co, and the Rusty Nail Stout.

Our boss took our office here for a fun night out to celebrate all our birthdays. We all ordered a few appetizers, drinks, and meals and shared. Most everything was presented beautifully and seasoned well. The service was always there to make sure we had enough to drink, cleared plates quickly when we were done with one thing to make room for the next round we ordered, and all the service was so nice. The building is quite historic and they have kept it in such great shape that they've been commended by the city. The brick and the original wood is gorgeous and I couldn't stop looking at all the details inside and out. The only downer was the a/c isn't very cold so we were a little warm, but I would assume that's because we were in an old building.

Day after Thanksgiving and not a lot of places opened but we drove by and saw this place. Cute and quirky area/building but smells coming out were promising! Glad we came! Ordered the generous portioned fried chicken sandwich with side of sweet potato fries. Perfection! Slightly stale bun but quality so it tasted great! Service was prompt and friendly! Would highly recommend!!

We stopped in for appetizers and a cocktail and ended up vowing to return. The mac and cheese was cheesy and smooth. The addition of gouda made the dish even more flavorful. It's an appetizer, but certainly could be a main dish. The pretzels were served with two different sauces and the mustard one was spicy goodness. The portobello fries were the star of the appetizer show. Crisp and tasty with both sauces adding a tasty layer to its deliciousness. We came in for a late lunch/early dinner (at a time when the restaurant was not crowded) and our wait staff was so attentive. They overheard me making a comment about the blackberry slushy mule and brought over a taste in a shot glass. I am definitely ordering that next time. The decor was clean and very cozy. I truly felt like I was transported to a European pub. All in all, the food and drinks are worth the stop. And we will definitely be back.

Price is a smudge steep but the food is quite nice. The onion soup was very nice and hit the spot on a cold night. Servers were prudish and friendly, even the trainee who service us. The environment was cozy, akin to an old hunting lodge that I visited in Estonia, with some modern flair.

The experience and quality here is always top notch. It's an amazing spot for celebratory dinners. Their menu is extensive and drinks are creative. I recommend outside seating, and it is dog friendly too! The patio is wonderfully cool after sunset. Service is always prompt and friendly. We will always return!

They recently changed the menu! The new owner is super sweet and very attentive. Every time I go there, whether it's alone or with my husband, we sit at the bar. It's a super open area with outdoor seating as well. The servers and bar tenders are super sweet and always on top of it. They have a delicious grilled Caesar salad which I get almost every time because it's so filling and delicious! They changed their menu and have way more veg friendly options and lighter food for the summer! They have flights of beer and also a ton of different beers on tap! One of my fav local spots in Reno.

Pretty cool little place. Had wings and fries as an appetizer and they were alright. Had the burger with French Onion Soup. Finally a place that does the cheese right! Service was great and food was very good!

I ordered the "ribeye steak ". The description just says,*Peppercorn sauce, asparagus. Served with garlic mashed potatoes -OR- fries." The steak was more of a carne asada. I ordered medium rare, came out well done and super thin. Server was great, food not worth writing home about.

Hate to go out on Valentine's Day but my husband and I went for a late lunch and had the best experience at St James. Our server was friendly and gave us honest input when asked. She even brought my husband French Pressed Coffee. It was cozy in the dining area with nice music and a cute video playing behind the bar. I had a Lobster Roll and it was wonderful on a lightly buttered roll. My husband had the Fish and Chips and he thought they were great. He said the shrimp was a nice surprise with the fish. We both love the fries. Since it was a holiday had to have the brownie dessert - would have had it even if it wasn't a holiday. Great experience. Have been there before and always enjoyed it.

Came in on a Thursday and were sat right away. Cute inside but seemed a little quiet (didnt notice music on) and when its empty feels like its missing some ambiance. Our server was very nice and attentive and food came out in a timely manner! We ordered a beer and the molly ringwald drink. Both were very good! We started with the pretzels. They were good, to me i feel they could have maybe been cooked a little longer, they seemed a little doughy more like bread than pretzel. And i wish more beer cheese came with it as that was so good! For meals we ordered the Lafayette and the Albright. Both were huge! You def won't leave hungry ! And both very tasty and very good fries. The Lafayette is a bit of a mess though so ask for extra napkins! Overall very good! Cant wait to come back when it gets warmer to try the patio and rooftop!

Being a Reno native it has taken me this long to try this place! I came here for a late lunch on a Friday and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't packed. The restaurant was very roomy inside and had some outdoor seating. We chose to sit outside since the weather was so nice. The menu isn't extensive but there seems to be some good options for all kinds of appetites. We ordered the portobello fries, a cocktail, and an impossible burger. All were delicious! The portobello fries were crisp yet meaty and the accompanying dips just pushed the flavor over the edge. In a good way! I ordered a cocktail... I'm not too sure which one but it was spectacular. Very refreshing. Lastly, the Impossible burger had me doing a double check because the "meat" looked so real! They really cooked it in a way that made it look and feel like a carnivore burger. The service was great as well!

Orders: BOUILLABAISSE | BRAISED PORK & KRAUT | MAMA'S SALAD Have loved this place for many moons now! Some of my favorite ambiance in Reno, great food, service & rotating local craft beers. The Braised Pork & Kraut was soooo gorgeous and flavorful!! Paired great with Mama's Salad, which we overlooked the fact that it was a cabbage-based salad when ordering which could've been redundant with the kraut, but it was actually super refreshing and fun to have the raw cruciferous crunch alongside such a cozy entree. I had a little of the Bouillabaisse which was obviously so good and had a little kick, but I was sooo into the pork & kraut, I couldn't stray away much. Recommendddd!

My friends and I came here for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn't too busy, and we were seated upon arrival. Food: My friends and I shared the following items: Charcuterie & Cheese Board - This was delicious with different type of cheeses that we aren't normally drawn to. The candy walnuts were the best. Mac & Cheese with leeks & mushrooms - This was a good portion. It was creamy and flavorful. Portobello Fries - These were my favorite part of the meal. They were perfectly fried, and the sauce it came with was perfect. Service: Our server was very friendly. She came by to check on us regularly. Our food came out promptly as well. Their bus person came by regularly to remove finished plates and refilled our waters as well. TL;DR - delicious food & great service.

The atmosphere today was quiet and laid back. Our waitress was friendly, but struggled with checking in with tables and consistency with her tables. We saw our waitress 3 times: when we got sat, when we flagged her down, and when she brought the check. To drink, I had the Brunch Mimosa Special. It was good but our waitress asked other tables what juice choice they would like and I wasn't given options. When I asked about juice options, I was told it was only orange juice. When the juice for the mimosa came out, there was a black chunk floating in it and it took a bit to flag the waitress down to get new juice. My husband had the Basin & Range. This drink was extremely unbalanced which made it very hard to drink, but it was beautiful to look at. To eat, I had the Benedict and I had the twice fried mashed potatoes instead of the fingerling potatoes. The Benedict ok. It was very one note in flavor. The eggs were poached perfectly and there was the perfect amount of hollandaise. The potatoes were lump-free with a crispy top but were a bit dry. My husband had the Fried Chicken and Waffles. The waffles were DELICIOUS! They were light and fluffy yet crispy with a hint of vanilla. The chicken was moist on the inside, but slightly overly coated and very fried on the outside.

A favorite for patio dining with our dog Jack. The tacos with grilled fish were tasty and plentiful. Salted rim on the Bloody Mary was a nice touch. Our server was super sweet too. They added dog leash hooks that are so cute!

Came in Sunday evening for a causal dinner. They were busy and would keep in mind for future visit a reservation. We wanted outdoor seating but they were booked-- however we were able to order drinks at the bar and take it upstairs to the open deck area. We placed our food order at the bar and they took it upstairs to the deck. The food took a little longer to arrive but understandable because of how busy they were. The staff did apologize for the wait. We had fish and chips and a Cubano sandwich. The fish and chips came with shrimp. The fish was good but maybe if it was cooked just a few mins longer to be crispier. Shrimp was really good. It came with two sauces-- the cajun was perfect. The Cubano sandwich was really flavorful, everything was fresh. I will definitely come back and try again when it's not as crowded. The restaurant is very cute and has a good vibe!

We had a good time here. It was easy to make reservations online. I also had to call to ask a question, and they answered promptly. Most of our group ordered the classic fish & chips, and enjoyed the shrimp/fish combo. I got the veggie burger without the non-vegan aioli, and my server even offered me the vegan & gluten free bun! Not even exaggerating: it was one of the best bar burgers I've ever had! Two little complaints: it was very warm/stuffy in the restaurant. Normally I run cold and am always freezing, but this time I sweated through the meal. Also, they forgot our avocado, and despite asking twice, it still never came out. We finally had to request it just be removed from the bill.

I really enjoyed the quiet and historic ambiance of Brasserie Saint James. It's located in a historic area of Midtown Reno. It's an easy walk to and from many residential and commercial locations in the area. The staff and service were prompt and friendly. The beertender was very knowledgeable of what was on tap. I chose the Red Headed Stranger, a delicious farmhouse ale that they brew themselves. I really enjoyed that. They have a really great beer list. I would have just liked it better if they had more of their own brews on tap. Overall, I enjoyed the experience here, and would definitely come here again.

Sadly I have to downgrade my review a bit because of recent menu changes that removed some of the gluten-free items. They have kept the mushroom risotto, which remains delicious but now the options are to add steak or grilled chicken and it no longer comes with asparagus. I really wish that the French Fries were gluten-free as that would add a lot more options (Mussels + Frites, Burger and Fries). You can get a side salad instead, but really who wants that when you eat out ;P

My friend and I met here for lunch. She recommended the chicken wings and the portobello mushrooms fries. Before 4pm they limit their menu items. This was my first time coming here for lunch. I have come here for brunch a few times, I really enjoyed it. They have two entrances, one in the front and one in the back. They have their own parking area. The waiters are really attentive and they serve alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages. I had an Arnold Palmer. I recommend checking this place out. It's hidden in midtown a bit. It's not too loud and has plenty of space.

One of my favorites! Service is always great here. I ordered The Albright (chicken sandwich) with fried chicken. If I could do it again I'd order grilled - the sandwich was too tall to eat! Their ketchup is good but very spicy! My cocktail was the Blue Lemon Jefferson. I usually come here for brunch but enjoyed my dinner!

Brasserie has been hanging out around Reno for what seems like ages and continues to keep up the pace with novel drinks and decent food. I don't know if there has been a time I visited and wasn't tempted by the Mac & Cheese with cauliflower, mushrooms and leeks. That one is a meat-free treat! Every visit I do get the impression that they under staffed on the server-side a bit. Our server was nice but it's hard to not notice how frantically they are moving about trying to keep up with demand.

I've been here several times over the years. It's always a treat. The bread pudding boats are always a great shareable for the table. I've always had great service here too. The cocktails are fun and often add to the easy going feeling of the restaurant. It's also a darker, quieter space, giving the company a chance to focus on one another, even from the other side of a long table. I would recommend this restaurant for locals and travelers alike.

Superb! Super happy about the change of menu and ownership. My family and I frequent here and are overall happy with the changes. What really stood out was the option to request old menu options, very accommodating for the more "fickle" guests. GREAT daily specials and cocktail list, paired with friendly staff is always a win. Ambiance is always lovely. ORDER THE KOREAN CAULIFLOWER WINGS!

Super cute spot for a lunch/dinner date. They have outside seating for the summer which I really recommend if the weathers great! We had the Fish and chips and the basque mussels w/ frites as well as the poutine with pork gravy for an appetizer! The server was very nice and attentive while it was busy for the dinner rush. 10/10 loved it. Would def come back again.

We hadn't visited the Brasserie in so long and I know they had changed owners at some point during that time, so we picked this spot for our day-after-date-night brunch, to fill up on good foods and get a little hair of the dog action. They have a pretty cute patio and I was bummed that they weren't seating it today because of forecasted rain, but the booths in their beautiful dining room are super cozy so it was a good backup plan. Anyway, we started with their brunch mimosa special, which is a full bottle of champagne and a carafe of juice on the side. I love this method - it lets us decide exactly how juicy to make our morning cocktail. Our server brought a little side carafe of cranberry juice by request which was super nice. So the food itself was really good. The flank steak with the chimichurri was probably the highlight for me... beautifully cooked, tender, super flavorful. It went really well with the "twice mashed" potatoes, with a little crusty top and wonderful creamy texture. So good! My French toast was nice and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The only thing I wanted from that dish was just a little more flavor - the menu says something about spices, so I was expecting some cinnamon or nutmeg or something. Either way, you can't go wrong with French toast! I added on a side of confit fingerling potatoes, which were nice and buttery and cheesy but missing a good hit of salt. We finished off our meal with orange creamsicle Gelato from Bibo and OMG, I'll be dreaming about that stuff for a while! It's a good portion too so it was good for sharing. Our server (I think her name was Jocelyn) was so attentive and friendly and helpful. She definitely gave us a great experience! We've loved the food here in the past so it's good to know that not much has changed in that respect. Can't wait to come back for happy hour and dinner!

First time here. Food was great, service was great and my Moscow Mule was tasty. Although my sisters meal had a few issues mine was very good. I don't think I left anything behind! It was pretty crowded as we did go on a Friday evening but we had a reservation so that I recommend. Just be aware it is a very loud place. Or at least it was that night. There were a few groups that were just really loud!! Definitely a place I would return to.

Yes. This place. All around. YES. An absolute Reno Staple. Rustic, cozy ambiance. Lovely fire burning for the snowy days and a cool deck to hang out on when it's nice and warm. Amazing craft beers on tap, personal favorite is The Red Headed Stranger. Zoey is an amazing bartender and very attentive, quick and funny! For todays adventure, we sat in a booth but she still came over and said hi! Unfortunately, our server, who's name I didn't catch, lost our order some how and it was about an hour and a half before we were able to eat. Kindly our 2 entrees were taken care of. Maybe she was a bit embarrassed and didn't want to conversate too much more but she put down the check before asking if we needed anything else, which we did. And that's when the bread pudding came in. Oh man. This is the BEST bread pudding ever! I'll be dreaming of it until I get it again! Not only is it gorgeous to look at but there were so many complimentary flavors!! Great texture too. Not as gooey as some bread puddings which can throw people off. My dad was being a hater about bread pudding til this was set down. And now, he loves it. Safe to say, for as long as the Red Headed Stranger is there, this brunette headed local will keep on coming back. Plus there's brunch here Saturdays and Sundays and I'm definitely coming back for the chicken and waffles because these guys know how to fry a chicken!!

My sister and I went for dinner last night. I made reservations and we showed up a little early and we were sat immediately. I ordered a hamburger and salad and substituted the mixed greens for butter lettuce. We also shared some poutine fries with pork gravy. The fries were delicious. My entree had some hiccups. I ordered it with grilled onions and lettuce. For some reason it came without a bun. I was ok with butter lettuce instead of a bun and they brought me a side of grilled onions. The salad was odd as they sprinkled salt on it. I wasn't sure if this was a new way to serve their salad and the server assured me it wasn't. I mixed it in and ate it and it wasn't bad. The server felt bad and had the meal taken off our bill. I know a lot of people like this restaurant and the other food on the menu looked great.

Another great experience, we showed up a little later in the night and got incredible service. We just had drinks but they kept checking on us to ensure we didn't change our minds about needing/wanting anything else. Definitely should have ate thought because now I'm craving the mussels. So glad they're open earlier again

It was a cold damp day today, which is perfect for a bowl of soup. I had heard good things about this place and wanted to try it for awhile, and the fact that they serve one of my favorite cold weather dishes, grilled cheese with tomato soup, made this a no brainer. Brasserie St. James is located in midtown and stays true to that "rebirth" vibe. The ambience is comfortable and upbeat. You are as likely to see dresses and suits as T shirts and flip flops. I ordered the Snow Day, a grilled cheese sandwich with a cup of roasted tomato soup. I would give the sandwich 5 stars. The cheese pull test was incredible. I think you can pull the cheese about a foot or more before it breaks. The bread was thick, and perfectly browned (not charred). The soup was tasty, but lost its appeal the more of it i ate. It was a bit spicey (which i like) but it was over salted, and i like salt. The more i ate, the more acidic tasting it became. I think if they added some cream it would tame that acid taste. I would give the soup 3.5 stars. Service was good but at times inconsistent. I sat at the bar so there was always a waiter pretty close to me but i was sucking on ice cubes a couple of times before getting refills. Also, my pet peeve is waiting for the bill when i am done and finally i had to flag down a bartender to close my bill. I shouldn't have to do that. I found it to be a bit pricey, $23.50 for grilled cheese, cup of soup and a coke before tip. Ingredients costs couldn't have been more than 5 bucks so a bit of a markup but not terribly out of line with the neighborhood. All in all, i will return as they have a varied menu and other dishes i saw being served looked pretty good and i want to try more.

Pretty average. Marrow canoes were only good because of the sauce. Steak was fine, cooked medium rare exactly as I requested. We sat outside, that was nice.

We recently ate dinner at Brasserie! It was so delish! The drinks, food and service were fantastic! My husband and I shared a hamburger and the grilled fish tacos. Both were delicious, but know the fish tacos are pretty spicy if you have a low spice level! The only reason I didn't give them a 5 star was the temperature of the restaurant. It was uncomfortably warm. We were al joking they'd turned up the thermostat to have people drink more!

I visited for dinner, and while the food was satisfying, the service was quite the opposite. We waited excessively to be served, and once we ordered our drinks, it took another 20 minutes to receive them. By that time, half an hour had passed, and we had barely taken a sip. Recognizing the delay, we decided to order both appetizers and entrees together, hoping to streamline the process. Regrettably, it didn't improve. Despite the challenges, I still rate them 4/5 as I understand the staffing issues and the impact of large tables on the service. The staff was apologetic, but the apologies lost their effect after a while. I might consider giving them another chance in the future.
