Brian Tai - ⭐⭐ 2025-2-13
I'm a bit disappointed in this place. I'm theory it should be great. AYCE BBQ, sushi, and yakitori. First, there's no yakitori currently. Second, there are hardly any options. You've got 4 kinds of nigiri, and a very limited selection of BBQ meats. Third, quality isn't very high. The grill is prone to flare ups. More so than other places because they're using an open mesh like you might find on a charcoal grill. The huge vents over the tables don't seem to be functional. Lots of smoke drifted to the side. I asked, and the answer I received was there's wind inside the restaurant. Maybe I'd come back once yakitori hits the menu, but if the selection and quality are in line with the rest of the offerings, I'll like skip and go somewhere else.

Came here for a friends birthday and was pleasantly surprised by how amazing the experience was! We checked in on yelp and got a 40% discount, the meat was all delicious and great quality, service was friendly and quick. Overall, it is my new favorite spot and I’m so glad we came! Shoutout to Emily for being a great server as well.

7 BBQ was running a promotion that brought the lunch price down to $29.99, so we decided to give it a try! With a reservation, we were seated immediately. Ordering is done entirely through their self-service tablet—from water and side dishes to meats, sushi, and beverages—super convenient! Unfortunately, the grill setup had some issues. The center burned too quickly, even before the meat was fully cooked, while the edges took forever to heat up. It also got very smoky, to the point where it irritated my eyes. On the bright side, the sushi was tasty, especially the Love Love Roll (no rice) and the salmon nigiri. However, the quality of the meats were inconsistent—some were fresh, while others weren’t (see photos). The appetizers were a mixed bag; the egg rolls and gyoza were great, but the miso soup and curry rice were cold and lacked flavor. One highlight? They offer s’mores for dessert, which was a fun way to wrap up the meal! At the original price of $49.99, I wouldn’t return, but at $29.99, it’s worth considering.
