The Complete Seven Grams Takeout Order Breakdown
- Seven Grams Beef Roll (6 Pieces) [$13.25]: Made with a pan-fried wheat scallion pancake, thin-sliced braised beef, fresh cucumber slices, green scallions, and sweet hoisin sauce. The pan-fried wrap retains its structural crispness inside cardboard takeout containers without becoming soggy.
- Seven Grams Cheese Chicken Roll (6 Pieces) [$12.50]: Contains a crispy breaded chicken cutlet, melted cheese, shredded lettuce, and diced red and green bell peppers wrapped in a golden toasted pancake pan. This item is best eaten within 20 minutes of pickup to maintain optimal melt consistency.
- Seven Grams Chicken Katsu Side [$7.50]: A single-cutlet chicken breast dredged in Japanese panko breadcrumbs, deep-fried, and served sliced. The dry, airy panko crust resists steam accumulation well during short transit times. But by the time we got home, it steamed inside the container and the panko became soggy.
- Golden Prime Beef Noodle Soup [$14.25]: Built with a slow-simmered aromatic beef bone broth, thick round wheat noodles, tender prime beef chunks, kale, green onions, and traditional pickled mustard greens. Seven Grams packs the hot soup broth in a sealed liquid container separate from the noodles and beef to prevent waterlogging.
- Seven Grams Pork Soup Dumplings / XLB (6 Pieces) [$8.75]: Hand-folded thin flour wrappers stuffed with seasoned ground pork meat and hot gelatinized savory pork broth. Dumplings must sit flat during transit to prevent the delicate skins from puncturing and leaking the internal soup broth.

“Dip the katsu in the tomato beef broth. Yummy!”
Parent Take · Cristina | Parent Approved
“The parents delightfully enjoyed our take out. The beef roll was light, refreshing, but filling. The chicken and cheese was surprisingly tasty. We got it for the kids but they didn’t even want to try it. The katsu got soggy on the way home but Callen gobbled it up with the help of the tasty tomato beef broth. We live a good 20 minutes away so the food cooled down a bit. Regardless, we devoured it. We could have put it a few minutes in the airfryer but we were so hungry and it smelled so good! The flavors were nice and it’s pretty affordable.”
