We stopped here after a quick trip to the Museum of Illusions. Our server Ileana was amazing and so sweet! The food was delicious. If you like cocktails, you must try the 'pina colada' and the 'shared roots'. They are tasty and worth the wait. The lamb ribs and 'duck dilemma' were also really good. We received a complimentary sample of the squah soup and it was so good that we order two bowls of it! Will definitely be back!

From the moment I walked in I had one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Alejandra was friendly on the phone, Anibal was superb in taking care of us. Food was exquisite and tasteful as was the drinks. Definitely coming back and highly recommend!!!

Needed a snack & drink. Ordered the Messi (app sampler basically). Received butternut squash soup with compliments. The cheese bread was divine. Honestly didn't pay attention to what all the dips were but it was delightful.

We had a great experience at Seven Reasons, the cherry blossom decor was beautiful. We stepped out of our comfort zone and tried new latin cuisine items and they did not disappoint! The employees were very attentive and kind to us.

Everything about Seven Reasons is fantastic—the food, the decor, and the overall experience. While it’s a bit pricey, the experience is definitely worth it. Here are my takeaways: Environment What can you say, Seven Reasons is beautiful. From the decor to the large tables and beautiful bar everything has it's own character. The main dining area opens up to the outdoors creating a lovely ambiance, especially on nice weather days. It’s a perfect space for anything from a casual dinner with friends to a romantic date night. Service The service was excellent. At a place like this, you’ll want to explore everything on the menu, and our server was great at guiding us through the many options. They were attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed and checking in to make sure we were satisfied with our meals and drinks. We couldn’t have asked for better service. Food The food was outstanding. Some highlights included the green rice and artichoke, the asado negro (a Venezuelan-style braised short rib served with mashed potatoes, sweet plantains, and a cilantro salad), and the cavatelli and lobster. Each dish offered a unique flavor profile, contributing to a delightful overall tasting experience. For dessert, the melting cloud and guava cheesecake were the perfect sweet finishes to our meal. Everything was lovely, and I can’t wait to return. Overall Seven Reasons was a true delight. With amazing food and beautiful decor, we had a fantastic time and will definitely return to experience it all again.

The dishes were delicious mix of flavors and textures. Service was excellent, the waiters knew exactly what was in each dish and how they were prepared. I’ll go back.

First time here and wasn’t disappointed. Great mixed drinks, complimentary soup, halibut was so refreshing, the beet’s carpaccio was light but delicious, beef tartar was packed w flavor, short ribs were so tender , and desserts were fun and unique. Our waiter Drew was fast, attentive, and pleasant.

If you’re looking for an impressive dinner - this is the spot. Their feast meal was absolutely incredible. Stand out dishes were the beef croquettes, ceviche, duck breast, scallops and the mezze platter. We got a bottle of Joseph Phelps Cabernet which was perfect but the cocktails were fabulous as well. Highly recommend as one of my favorite restaurants in the city.
