St. James Live!
Seated live-music room focused on jazz, soul, R&B and blues, with cocktails and food built around an adult date-night crowd.
Why go
Go when the music is the main event. St. James is built for a seated, up-close jazz/R&B night with cocktails and table service instead of yelling over a DJ.

The story
