Best Contemporary American Restaurants in St. James

Always a memorable night at Bliss. Was greeted by Ron the owner, who is just a charming, outgoing host. Sat my 92 y/o dad as he made his way in his walker to our table. Great apps including bacon wrapped dates, Ceasar salad, chicken pot pie and more. Followed by entrees of their outstanding burger, salmon and chilean sea bass all cooked perfectly. Dominic our waiter was fantastic. You can’t go wrong coming home to Bliss, an excellent choice for dinner. 

The food and service were outstanding! You can get lost in all of the wonderful offerings in their store. Such a great idea to eat in such a lovely ambiance. Our food was beautifully plated and delicious. We opted to eat half our servings in order to try some of their desserts! We were not disappointed! And we got our leftovers packed away to eat later. This was a beautiful experience from start to finish... We will be back soon!

We visited on Valentine’s Day and the restaurant was completely booked. The hostess was very pleasant, the manager was very personable and our server was incredible. The Valentine’s dinner menu had so many options. Our meal came out promptly and everything was delicious!!!

Unfortunately, for Valentines Day, it wasn’t the quiet romantic atmosphere we had hoped for. There was a very loud group with a baby and small child at a corner table in our room of otherwise couples.

A very pleasant local neighborhood gem. Excellent food with perfect portions. Very nice atmosphere and staff.
