I have been a long time follower of the chefs and their story from their days at Octavia. We finally had the chance to try 7 Adams and maybe I had too high of expectations going in. While the beauty of each dish undoubtedly excelled, I really was disappointed with the taste of the dishes. Some were bland, others salty, while I think there was clear effort in complementing textures, I was not wowed by the food in taste. The $87 prix fixe meal was not enough for the two guys at our table despite getting seconds of their famously beautiful bread (yummy but on the too salty side). The entire time I felt rushed, the waitress did not help. Ambiance was meh because we were uncomfortably placed at a table of four squished into a corner near the counter and the door. Not sure if we should’ve gone for the tasting menu if that would have helped, but my balloon was popped coming here. Bummed as I was hoping for more given its recent Michelin star. I don’t think I will be returning even though I really wanted to love it.

Great hangar steak and cod. We also got the white truffle risotto which wasn’t worth it in my opinion. Appetizers were light but the poached egg was well seasoned. Larger dessert portions than I expected!

Some dishes were truly inspiring for me and others were just ok. Especially the dessert, they need to step up their game for that.

Great place. Easy to find parking. Great service and overall high value. The fish was cooked really well - skin was crispy and the flank steak was really tender and juicy rare.

I took my wife here for our anniversary, and the team at 7 Adams went above and beyond! From the food, service, and atmosphere, you could tell much thought and love was put into everything. I would highly recommend it.

Very good, but not perfect. Maybe the recent Michelin star and the hype skewed some of my expectations, but while some dishes were outstanding, others fell a bit flat.
The beginning of the meal started out stronger, with a simple, but satisfying bread and butter and flavorful first course, for which I received a vegetarian variation to accommodate my finned fish allergy.
The 2nd course with the poached egg was definitely the best part of the whole meal - very rich, but silky and complex with flavor and texture.
The 3rd course pastas were both amazing for the same reasons as the 2nd and a close favorite.
The 4th courses were where things disappoint a bit: Though the lobster 3 ways sounds great, the stew was a little too overpowering in flavor and hiding the lobster's flavor (though there was a decent amount of lobster meat in there). The sauce that accompanied the tail was delicious, but the tail was uneven in doneness, with the narrow part a bit overdone while the thicker part was just right. The tempura claw was perfect and the best part of the main course. For my husband's main course- the wagyu bavette. It was delicious.
The 5th course - dessert - was also a mix. I found the chocolate pear too one-note and overpowering with pear (expecting other flavors to come out of the chocolate, cake, or almond shortbread). My husband's sundae was much better with all the right flavors and balance coming through.
Overall, this was a great meal, but not perfect.

Gorgeous restaurant with an absolutely exquisite prix fixe menu. We will definitely be back. They offered veggie alternatives for those who wanted them. A tip of 20% was added with no option to add more or I probably would have because the service was great and the food was amazing. Good wine selection, too
Vegetarian options: The menu is prix fixe. If you tell them you are vegetarian, they will offer a replacement option if there isn't already a veggie option for that course. The table next to us had a person who asked for and received gluten free options, as well.

This was our fourth visit — the first 3 were before they received their Michelin star and the food was exceptional, but tonight’s dinner was not of the same caliber. Food definitely was not memorable or Michelin worthy compared to our first 3 visits.
Everything looked beautiful, but the sauces were bland and lacked salt, the trout was overcooked and also lacked salt, the lobster tail was no longer warm when it was served, and the combination of ingredients in both pasta dishes didn’t seem to quite work.
We were also not happy to only receive 5-6 slices of mediocre white truffle on our pastas for the $65 supplement. Definitely not worth it. I don’t mind paying for supplements but I expect them to be excellent and a little more generous.
The caviar opening bite ($19 supplement), the two appetizers, the bread(!!!), the lobster knuckle stew, and the wines were excellent. Service was friendly and hospitable, and we appreciated that they offered my wife a replacement main course when it was clear she was disappointed with the trout.

We recently dined at 7 Adams after it received its first Michelin-star, and while the food was good, it didn’t quite live up to the star. The standout was the fresh, moist, and delicious bread, but the other dishes, though well-prepared, didn’t impress as much.
A couple of issues detracted from the experience. One table was getting drunk, which felt out of place, and another couple arrived wearing joggers. For a Michelin-starred restaurant, I expected a bit more attention to atmosphere and dress code.

Delightful five course meal at an exceedingly reasonable price point. Pastas, mains (wagyu upgrade is worth it!), and desserts were spectacular, as was the service. Just go!
