Seven Restaurant 26 North Meramec Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63105

"Came in around 9ish looking for a late night snack. Ordered Chicken Tortilla Soup, Spanikopita, and chcolaye lava cake. Asked for the dessert after the other food. Waitress came back and said they were out of the soup so we ordered another Spanikopita (sign stated $8 - come to find out that is the Happy Hour Price) got our bill and the clearly frozen appitizer was $16 a plate. From where we were sitting you couldn't tell from the sign that it was the happy hour price. In addition the lava cake with ice cream came out at the same time and again was clearly not made from scratch. Waitress did reverse the charge of one appetizer bringing it to the price we thought but this restaurant has been mostly empty every time we've passed it from the lobby and the food was not worth the price at all especially considering we had a much higher quality meal for dinner for just $20 more inclusing two apps, side salads, two entrees, and two desserts earlier today. Disappointing and clearly could be done better."

"I feel like more people need to go here so that they can hit their stride. Things are a bit bumpy, but there's tons of potential. On the plus side, our seven year old granddaughter said the chicken strips were the best she ever had."

"We came here with some out of town guests on a Saturday night around 6pm excited based on good reviews we had read. The dining room was mostly empty but there were a few tables seated on the back patio. Our server seemed busy and disinterested from the get go like we were the last thing on their mind. We initially ordered drinks which took a very long time to come out- including even the soft drinks. One cocktail ordered by our table needed basil and they had to check if they had that and we were told yes. About 15 minutes later the bartender came out and said they didn't have any which seemed strange for a restaurant not to have basil especially so early in the night. We ordered food as soon as we got the chance because we knew it would be a while before we got our food. The food was overall good once we received it. A few of us got steaks which were cooked well and flavorful. The bourbon chicken was disappointing with a small portion and a mess of vegetables. It looked like corn was just thrown on the plate and was not what we expected from this type of restaurant. Risotto was okay but came drenched in sauce that took over the dish. Our second round of drinks tasted noticeably different than the first- not necessarily bad but no consistency even in something as simple as an Old Fashioned. To cap off our evening we finally got the bill and we only got a non itemized receipt with just the subtotal, tax, and total. We did not want to wait any longer and wanted to leave so we paid and left without any questions. There is definitely potential here but overall a very unsatisfying experience with poor service for the cost. Don't think we'd return."

"Stopped into seven for dinner last night after hearing great reviews for our friends. My wife and I enjoyed a lovely meal with a friend of ours. Our server Michelle was delightful and our entrees were wonderful. My roast chicken was absolutely delicious and my wife, the burger fanatic, was impressed with her gables burger. We can’t wait to come back and try lunch, and brunch!"

"Stopped in for happy hour and appetizer. Excellent service, excellent mixed drink, and delicious flatbread. Enjoyed a nice quiet hour with my husband. Returned for dinner. Excellent shrimp & grits and chicken pot pie. Again, excellent service."
