Great service and atmosphere. Food was a mixed bag. Had the seven course menu. The starter courses came out FAST, like the fastest I’ve ever seen at a Michelin star tasting menu. Didn’t mind as it was a weeknight dinner. However, the main courses came very slowly, so it made the overall pacing feel clunky. The tortellini in broth was undercooked (more raw than al dente, especially the corners of the tortellini). The halibut and steak were perfectly cooked. The heirloom tomatoes and honey nut squash velouté were both a bit bland.

7 Adams is a great restaurant for European cuisine suitable for any occasions. It is a little bit tightly seated but the crowd wasn’t too loud. Staff were friendly and attentive. Food is well proportioned and balanced. Pacing of food is perfect. Never a moment did I feel like I was hanging and bored. My favorite dish is the halibut, which was tender and goes really well with the sauce. Dessert was just ok but I am not a dessert person anyways.

At one point during our meal, the server asked my husband, “are you done” and when we said we were still eating he just walked away. His service ruined the experience for us. Didn’t smile once. He should probably get hospitality training.

Small portions. Vibe was fine, nothing special.

We won’t be back.

My husband and I had our 20th anniversary dinner here. We we chose the seven course.
The service was excellent and the dishes were delicious! Small portions but exquisite.
If I had to note one complaint is that that waygu was a rather tough and not that easy the cut.
I might just question the quality of the meat cut.
Restaurant was busy but atmosphere was nice and too loud.

Went for my wife’s birthday and it was a nice intimate dinner. We did the seven course menu and it was all well received. Really liked their Japanese bread. Drinks were good as well

Had an amazing meal. Service was top notch and everyone was so friendly and involved. Each course was unique and elegant. We enjoyed the halibut and pork loin main course, but the true winner was a celery root agnolotti which was rich and delicious.

Delicious food and fabulous wait staff! The dessert was to die for, I would return for that and the milk bread alone. I’d be thrilled to come here again.

1 Michelin star restaurant, they offer a 5 or 7 course tasting menu. We tried the 7 course . Out of the 7, I like the heirloom tomatoes , very refreshing and the halibut which is poached with olive oil, very moist and fresh. The rest of the menu is just so so . The worst is the washugyu striploin, which is very tough The beef tongue is a joke, only a few very tidy pieces that under the dim light of this restaurant, you can miss that easily . They charge 20% tip plus 6 % city health mandate. Service is adequate, but but the best compare to other Michelin star restaurants.

The food was bland and completely unremarkable—nothing stood out. Out of five courses, I couldn’t even eat two of them, and I’m not a picky eater. The music was quite generic, and one person of the staff was not particularly kind. I honestly don’t understand how this place earned a Michelin star. Absolutely do not recommend.

The food was excellent but the seating is too cramped and the seats are uncomfortable. The seats have no cushions. The tables are too tight for even the serves to reach through them. Inside seating is better but outside terrace seating is not convenient for a 1 star restaurant. I would love to go back but only if they improve their seating.

Food was ok. The service was not great. They were constantly interrupting rushing you to go next course.

Precise, technically sound cooking with a strong emphasis on local ingredients.

Came here for an early Tuesday evening dinner. Maybe it was just the timing, but the atmosphere leaned more toward an upscale after-work hangout spot than a fine dining experience. The restaurant was completely packed, yet the service remained attentive and polished.

Osetra Caviar – Clearly inspired by “Oysters & Pearls” from The French Laundry. Maybe a single oyster wasn’t quite enough to balance the generous scoop of caviar, but the fermented white asparagus sauce brought a soft, earthy richness that pulled everything together. A restrained but elegant start.

Toy Box Tomato – A tomato burrata salad, elevated. The puffed buckwheat added both texture and a toasty, slightly earthy undertone that made the dish feel layered rather than basic.

Hiramasa Crudo – Clean and delicate. The hiramasa itself didn’t have the deepest flavor, but the puffed amaranth added a fine, crisp contrast that gave the dish structure without overwhelming it.

Spaghettini All’Amatriciana – A seemingly simple tomato-based pasta, but executed perfectly. The spaghettini had a perfect chew—thin, but no clumping—and the balance of acidity, depth, and heat in the sauce made this feel exceptional.

Grilled Mt. Lassen Trout – Probably the most mundane dish of the night or maybe it just paled in comparison to the sea bream we had for lunch. The XO shiitake, millet, and Coachella corn formed a lovely risotto-like base, but the trout itself felt a bit too plain.

Spring Lamb Loin – The best lamb loin I’ve ever had. More marbled than most, with visible fat strains and a thick cap that somehow had zero gamey scent. Maybe it’s something in the Sonoma Valley grass, but this was the kind of lamb I’d eat again and again.

Kitchen Sink Sundae – A good finale. Paired beautifully with the Graham’s 20-year Tawny Port.

Good food and value for money!
We did a 5 course menu and it was well curated. The timing of courses was quite fast and presentation was good!
Dessert was chocolate tiramisu which was amazing!! Personally the best dish and dessert I have had in a long time.

I've been to many Michelin starred restaurants and was looking forward to trying this spot. We did the seasonal 5-course dinner and were disappointed because the dishes were plated nicely but quite bland. The most memorable were the bread rolls and butter, and then the desserts! the corn succotash was pretty good too. But other courses were just okay and we kind of regretted selecting a premium dish adding $30 to the bill. Service was great, although I didn't really understand why so many different servers came for each different course. Staff were very attentive. Tip is fixed. Ambience is great but it was so dark I couldn't read the menu .. I wished our table also had a table lamp like other tables. Overall I was happy to try the restaurant and it was a good date night out but I probably won't come back soon.
