I hadn't been to Bistro 7 in a while, but will make sure that it is on our list of restaurants that we simply love.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat TimeWe enjoyed the food a great deal. Obviously prepared with great care and expertise. We will visit Bistro 7 regularily5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMA great spot! Wonderful food.A great spot! Wonderful food. The menu always has choices that include complex flavors that have been chosen and prepared with skill. Wait staff are attentive and helpful. When I go, I always winder how I could have forgotten to go for a while. It's clear that a chef is doing what he loves and we benefit.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was the third time we'veThis was the third time we've been to Bistro 7. Again, I think the food is outstanding and its presentation is great. The service is attentive without being intrusive. It would be hard to improve on the cooking. The cook fortunately has a light hand with the salt. Never the less, the flavors of the food were quite fine. Many restaurants are a bit freer with salt than I would prefer. A word of warning for those not from Philadelphia - It is BYOB. I did not find this to be a problem since I was prepared.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat meal. The chef/ownerGreat meal. The chef/owner is personable and informative. Thoroughly enjoyed dinner; the gnocchi(s) much better than Vetri's.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMThe gnocchi, foie gras andThe gnocchi, foie gras and duck were outstanding. My girlfriend ordered the short ribs, which were good, but somewhat lackluster in terms of flavor. Everything else - service and ambience - was excellent, and the duck was exquisite.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMGem of a BYOB. Best mealGem of a BYOB. Best meal I've had in a long time.

Our server Ricky was very accommodating. We wanted everything coursed out one at a time in a very specific order so we could share and it was seamless.
Food was perfect. The Striped Bass and Short Ribs were amazing and the Gnocchi was so good we had 2 orders.
The other patrons were very friendly too. We ended up trading some wine with the table next to us.
If you're under 40 I would suggest going later. For our 630 res we were the only people under 50.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMThe 10-course tasting menuThe 10-course tasting menu was phenomenal! Come hungry, because it's lots of food. All dishes were different and complex. Bring your own wine. Service was good but not in your face.3/22/2013 12:00:00 AMJust loved the food.
