7th Sister

We stopped in after strolling around town. We sat on the patio and it was beautiful the old charm of the building was excellent and the brick wall provided a nice buffer from the street. On Sunday they only offer brunch and they close early. The French toast was thick and had great flavor. We thought it could use less of the fruity pebble cream but overall it was good. We also ordered the chicken sandwich which was very delicious. The sweet and salty of the old bay honey paired really well. We also ordered several different cocktails and they were all delicious. I will warn you that the lobby had a very off putting smell, but the patio didn’t share that smell.

Beautiful scenery in the outdoor seating era. My best friend had a birthday party here for her mother's 65 and when I brought my mother along. We were blown away by the outdoor decor and seating. It was beautiful. Food however, not so much. Tip for kitchen staff, the burgers were way too salty and no flavor. Please revisit how the burgers are being seasoned. I ended up sending it back and got the porkchop. That was delicious. Staff was very attentive. The bill process definitely took longer than usual and this process could use some work.

The presentation was great and so was the service. The food was not. The oysters were good but that is where it stopped. The cheesesteak was saltyand the fries soggy. The porkchop was more disappointing it was chewy hard to cut and small bones in the cut. It was very pink around the bone as well. In all fairness we did not complain or let them know. Was pretty expensive for the quality. I hope this was not the norm.

So on a Saturday afternoon about 230pm I wasn't planning on brunch... However brunch it is on a Saturday 11am to 3pm... So if your looking for lunch or dinner come after 4pm. As for brunch we had 2 hits and a sorta miss... The Eggs Benedict (good) and the Eggs Market (GREAT) were both tasty filling meals.... I'll return for the Market version. The appetizer Watermelon and Whispers...sounds like an odd yet tasty combo but for $17 it is barely a nibble for 2...it was OK at best felt like I overpaid on that one. Overall mostly a good meal...sat outside and it was great no bugs buzzing around... service was good but our server did disappear for a bit to be replaced by someone else...shift change??? Maybe we were overlooked for a bit but overall service was OK.

Atmosphere is trendy and restaurant is clean and inviting. We had reservations for noon and arrived early. While at the host stand several employees walked by without any acknowledgement to our presence. After several minutes we were greeted and seated. Received water very quickly. Water without ice, no biggie. I’ve traveled and know many places in Europe do not office iced beverages. We ordered quickly and decided to have a starter first. That came out quickly. Bread and oil. After finishing our starter we waited. And waited. And waited. Finally the server came out and said our food would “be out in 5”. Twenty min later we were still waiting. We were now at the hour mark after being seated. The food appears, and we dig in. The omelette just barely warm. We’re talking like body temp. For $19 I had higher expectations. Esp after waiting so long. We also ordered the pastrami and egg sandwich. Also, barely warm. The potatoes though, they were very hot. So I guess we waited 20-30 min for hot potatoes. The server made no mention and offered no apologies for the delay when the food was dropped. Although the flavors of the omelette were very nice, it was hard to enjoy. The inner texture of the egg was a soft scramble which tastes better when warm. The sandwich offered a generous portion of pastrami, but cheese on the sandwich had that warmed then cooled appearance. The sandwich was at room temp. For $18, we expected more. Not sure we are willing to try a second go around.

7th Sister opened with a soft launch just last weekend and I'm already impressed. The staff was friendly and accommodating despite the stress they must be under trying to open a brand new restaurant in such a short time. The food was fabulous. I ordered the crab cake, bread with oil and the bramble cocktail. The crab cake was delicious and a generous portion served atop perfectly cooked veggies and along side a charred lemon. I wish I'd saved room for dessert. They are also serving brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. I am already planning my next visit.

Went with a full group of family, reserved early and they even had a private dining area for all of our guests. The atmosphere was gorgeous, the building historical, while their patio and fire pit were absolutely gorgeous. I have food allergies, so it was a surprise to be so well taken care of, especially with the quality of food. They took care of me, chef and waitress were so nice and helpful. Probably one the best experiences and meals of my life. 10/10 would recommend!

Such a fantastic restaurant. The menu is great and has something for everyone. Our meal was delicious, my husband has the pastrami sandwich and I had the risotto. We also had the crab dip, which I definitely recommend getting. The space is gorgeous and the staff are friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a wonderful dining experience in Frederick this is where you'll find it.

This is really a 3.7 or so. My wife and I have been to the last three restaurants in this space and never been really wowed by any of them, but we had heard the cheesesteak here was really good and wanted to give it a shot. We came by around 5 on a Wednesday, which was happy hour, and so treated ourselves to half price cocktails, which were solid. We sat outside to enjoy the fall weather and the waitstaff was attendant and courteous. We already knew what we wanted and it didn't take long for the food to come out. The crab dip we ordered to start was between warm and hot which is how I prefer it to avoid the risk of a burned mouth and the flavor was there even if the lumps of crab were not. The cheesesteak and fries were great, a little short of the best I've had simply due to the high bar on that, but very tasty nonetheless. Why 3.7? Mostly value, really. The prices on everything are maybe $2-3 higher than they should be. I hope they're able to stick around and find a successful formula, anyway.

First time coming here. The cheesesteak was one of the best food items I have eaten in Frederick--the horseradish aioli was melt-in-your mouth delicious. My wife ordered one of the salads with steak--very fresh and a fantastic vinaigrette, and the extra steak she added was very very good. Ordered two cocktails and was very impressed by both, elevated and delicious. Knowing that the pastrami sandwich and the crab dip are both from Firestone (same head chef), which were already some of the best in the city, this new spot was a winner. Will definitely be coming back.

5 stars for brunch! I hope they do well here. (I went to the last restaurant..the one after Volt and I didn't review it bc I was not a fan) I would like to see 7th Sister succeed in this space. They have a great menu for both brunch and dinner. We got the bread and oil (with goat cheese) I love that they source out to a local bakery for the bread. My mom said "I would make a meal out of this bread alone" -- it was really good. I see they also have a Maison Brunswick avocado toast which will have to wait for a return visit. I got the eggs Chesapeake and it was fine. I went because I saw their amazing Bloody Mary on instagram, but they didn't have it anymore, so I had to get their *basic* Bloody Mary, which turned out to be fine. I also got the matcha cocktail... couldn't really taste the matcha but it was still refreshing. I would like to make a return visit!

the bacon on the brunch burger was fatty the Eggs Chesapeake may have had 3 small pieces of crab meat, Cost of the meal with tip was over $100.00

We have been to all the restaurants here since Volt and this was amazing! High recommend. We got the private room to celebrate Father's Day and everything was perfect! Crab cake and ribeye and the fish were all great! Onion soup was on sweeter side so we were not crazy about it. Service was phenomenal.

Tell me why they gave us shot glasses to drink water!?!? While everyone else has regular sized glasses of water We also didn't get our utensils till our food arrived and we had to ask for it. Everyone else had their utensils set for them before the water arrived. I definitely felt discriminated against...I will never come back here again!

Wait staff needs work Waiter poured a little wine on table walked away did not wipe it up. Took away utensils didn't bring new till we asked. We said we were sharing 3 deserts no extra plates. I would put a chef in courtyard on a grill with a tub of beers and bring in local talent. To get the courtyard hopping.

We shared oysters and chopped salad. The salad was big enough to share and with olives and chick peas, it could have been a stand alone meal. The 2 oyster types available 6/6 were very different. One was delicate and paired with the chef's recommendation of crème and berry glacé. The other was a beefy bold flavor that did well with horseradish. Hubby loved his medium rare, juicy steak with truffle fries. The crusted scallops were tender and paired with creamy grits. The grilled cabbage had too much oil for my taste- but I ate it all. The coffee was great! Skipped dessert due to being full but enjoyed a rum flight. It was an adventure in differences. Our waitress comped hubby's drink because she thought she was too slow. We didn't notice slow service. If you've enjoyed earlier restaurants in this space, it is pretty much the same but somehow more comfortable. We'll be back.

We were going to have family in town and had reservations for The Ordinary Hen. About a week before our reservation, I got a call telling us that the restaurant had new owners, a new chef and new menu. We were disappointed but game to try it. When we arrived, we were told that their opening night last night didn't happen so this was their first night, so please be patient. We were seated and soon realized the woman at the neighboring table was very loud. The hostess quickly and subtly moved us at our request. The evening and food turned out wonderfully. The server was one we knew from The Ordinary Hen. He was attentive even while he was training a new waiter.

7th Sister recently had their opening, after changing ownership and chef. The food was underwhelming for the price. I encourage everyone to try this place, however, it wasn't my favorite food experience.
