Bistro 7’s 45-seat dining room, painted a striking shade of green that chef-owner Michael O’Halloran describes as somewhere between pea and asparagus, has so few decorations that the steel ductwork on the ceiling seems like art. What’s on the menu isn’t revolutionary, but O’Halloran’s gentle coaxing of those flavors, his attention to detail, and the ever-changing dishes are: A creamy garlic dressing on crisp greens is impossibly sweet and mild; shoestring potatoes accompanying a rib-eye steak frites are fried in duck fat.

Review
This restaurant is small yet spacious at the same time. The restaurant is bright and has large windows which makes the setting pleasant. The food was wonderful and the overall service was great.
