The St James Lounge & Grill

Went in last week, and got a very warm welcome. All the staff were kind and friendly. My partner got the Pennette al Salmone which was incredible, and the pasta was freshly made in the kitchen. I got the catch of the day which was sea bass, marinated and oven baked with limes and mango and herbs. It was amazing. Over all a lovely dining experience, and very reasonably priced for the fresh quality of food. Hope to see this place thrive.

My friend and i liked the look of the menu while looking for some where new to eat so decided to give it a try, and we were very impressed. The head chef/owner welcomed us warmly, spoke us through the menu and happily answered all questions. There was loads of fresh fish and meat options and while keeping to the very italian feel, there were a couple of interesting fusions mixed in. The head chef/owner was very passionate about his trade and this shone through while explaining the inspiration behind his dishes. We ate the pizzatacos, which is effectively a very light pizza - delicous! And two types of ribs which were mouth watering. As it is a new restaurant in a part of town i wouldnt normally eat, i wasnt too sure of what to expect but i could not have been more impressed and i cannot recommend this place enough. Hope it does really well. I'll be back here!

Ate here last night and I can honestly say this restaurant has become my favourite restaurant in Brighton! The owner and head chef is very attentive and his passion for food is obvious! He is happy to make recommendations and tell you about his inspiration for each dish. The food is exceptional! Highly recommend the Pizzatacos as a starter! We had the ribs and they were amazing! The potatoes are the best I've tasted (and I'm Irish ha). I can not fault this restaurant at all and will definitely be returning any chance I get! I can not recommend it enough! For 2 starters, 2 main courses, a bottle of sparkling wine and 2 coffees we paid £30 each. Based on the quality and enjoyment of this dining experience it was a steal!
