Avoid at all costs – I've had some awful experiences at this place. To be completely honest however, I've never tried the food, so I won't comment on that aspect of james beach. My primary beef lies with the bartenders and the level of service which they provide, as they are probably the most unresponsive and ignorant servers that I have ever encountered. Unfortunately, this complaint is not directed at any particular bartender, but at the staff as a whole. I have been to this establishment twice, and both times i have been ... read more
Casual yet posh – Love coming to James Beach! You can have a beautiful outdoor experience with white lounge chairs surrounding the bar and an inexpensive drink in your hand. I have heard the food is excellent, it is on my to-do list.
Fun place to grab a drink with friends – You'll have fun, there's good energy, the bartenders are polite and attentive. Definately a great vibe and feel! The swimtrunk lighting definately makes it. Check it out :)
Great atmosphere, good food, great staff. – I love this place. Although, in the evening, it seems like more of a bar than a restaurant. If you're looking for a later evening quiet meal, this is not the place. Been for lunch, and dinner many times. The food has always been outstanding, although a little on the pricey side. I also have enjoyed the bar on many occasions. The staff is friendly, helpful, knowledgable and attentive. There is no attitude here. I like the mix of people. You've got some snooty SM and some crazy Venic... read more
It's fine – This place is fine, nothing spectacular. Lots of eye candy mixed with the coyotes of near by Venice. Not a gourmet eat. Good place to go with out of towners
Ideal brunch spot – Outdoor patio ideal for post-hangover brunch. Heat lamps to keep you warm and Bloody Marys to keep you going. My boyfriend and I chose James Beach because they served Bloody Marys and we'll go back because it had a chill vibe, the Coast Toast really was to die for, and it wasn't overrun with people like other Westside brunch spots. We'll order the mimosas with strawberry puree mixed into them next time -- they looked really good. I'm reading a lot of complaints about service but it was fine. The host was ... read more
Bad expensive food – I went to this restaurant with a large group of people for a friend's birthday party. The service was good for our large group but the atmosphere was very, very loud. The food was terrible and way overpriced. After walking through the smoke filled patio full of single women and men lurking about, I ordered the pasta with portabello mushrooms, roasted red peppers, pine nuts, and goat cheese. The dish was watery, had no flavor, and cost $16. I love to cook and could have made this much better at home (whic... read more
Two visits and I'm 1 for 1, Worth a 3rd visit... – The management of James Beach responded to an email I sent them after I had a poor experience at the restaurant on a particularly busy night. I was pleased that the restaurant offered to make good for the bad night. My second evening at James Beach was very nice. The service was attentive, the food was hot and tasty, and I will go back.
Why anyone would eat here is a mystery!! – This place has been a Venice hangout for a long time now, but apparently they are stuck in whatever decade this place was built. It was so dirty, from the floors, the bars, the tables, and the patio. Looked like everything was cheap, shoddy, and needed a paint job. It is "supposed" to be beach fine dining, but there is not an iota of class to this rip off joint. The prices they charge for the quality, or lack there of, for the food they serve here is beyond insulting. We tried a spe... read more
