I want to start off by saying that I'm intensely disappointed to be receiving this kind of service from my own people. I ordered a crab cake, sea scallops, garlic fried & plantain sliders with chicken. The crab cake was mediocre at best & I'm being kind when I say this. The scallops were okay but lacked freshness. The salad surrounding the carb cake was honestly better than the crack cake itself. The garlic fries were oily & inconsistent. What really took the cake for me was the old chicken that they tried to repurpose & failed miserably at. Unsure if the slaw or the chicken was spoiled/old but definitely all the way off!!!!! I am extremely disappointed to have stopped here on this beautiful Friday afternoon when I could've ate something much more enjoyable elsewhere. I would not recommend this place until they figure out how to stop ranse avec figi'm respectfully. read more

Very rude owner. First time there could not get a seat. After 15 minutes of being ignored, I was told there was no waiting. Elderly white woman with grey hair and they didn't accommodate me. I could not even get a drink and wait. Three people at the bar were in the process of sending their food back, I don't know why. Don't waste your time. New response below from Orchid7 owner proves my point. Instead of saying, we are sorry that happened please come back in we'd love to make this right. So don't post a negative TRUE review because you will be called a Karen and not very nice comments about you. read more

Decent food, but lousy service. I had the salmon and it was excellent. But my server was terrible. I had to wait 45 minutes for my order. Overpriced. read more

I really wanted to love this place, but poor service = poor experience. My first experience was for my birthday and we were a large party of about 10. The waitress wasn't as attentive to our party as she could've been, going long periods without checking on us, mixing up orders, and simply forgetting to put things in. The wait for the food was absolutely ridiculous, but we made the most of it. Without complaining, we were offered an adjustment of the bill as the owner observed some of the things that were going on. Six months later I decided to give it another shot. My sister and I walked in around midday and the establishment was fairly quiet. There were two employees behind the bar area and no one working the floor at the time. After a few minutes of not being greeted or acknowledged, we asked if we should seat ourselves. Long story short, we sat there and waited and waited and were never serviced despite others coming in after us and being serviced. Once we decided to leave, I went to inform the waiter and another gentleman whom looked in charge and they both blank-stared me. Needless to say, I will not be returning. Two stars because the food was flavorful during my first experience and there was some accountability for the poor service. read more

Had lunch at orchid a few weeks ago. We just stopped in for a bite. The prices were high and the service was sub par. The wait for our food was long given the lack of customers. It actually wasn't very good. Will not go back. Perhaps an off day for the establishment. read more

Landed here on a complete whim. Had an amazing experience! The plantain sliders were to die for! The drinks were delicious! The icing on the cake was the wonderful staff and a visit from the owner! Although we do not live nearby, we will definitely be back! Don't miss out a great Caribbean fusion experience! read more

The place looked nice. I order the pineapple burger and it was delicious! I do think it was a bit pricey though...

The food was absolutely fantastic from the jerk wings and . Mark , our waiter was fantastic he made some suggestions were to our spot on and the chef I should've gotten his name was spectacular. The restaurant was clean. I recommend it very highly. read more

Very small portions, bland, overpriced, and extremely lack luster. Save yourself and head downtown

A black-owned business in Dedham? Sign me up! I visited this restaurant on a Wednesday night with family, and we were greeted by smiling staff and a brightly lit dining room. The colors, art (which can be purchased), and decorations were very inviting. We started our dinner with shareable appetizers of chicken wings and plantain tacos with griot (fried pork). Both appetizers were delicious. For dinner, our party ordered the salmon dish, rasta pasta, and mustard chicken dish. The salmon portion was a little small but nicely seasoned. The rasta pasta was spicy but delicious. The mustard chicken portion was larger than I expected and a little oily, but it tasted great. I would recommend and plan on visiting again soon. read more

I read the ratings of people saying this food was oh so good. LIES. The steak I ordered was so bland did not even seem like they put any salt on it. The garlic herb cream sauce tasted BLAND like they just poured water into it. OH and where were the herbs? Are the herbs in the room with us right now? NOT. Also, the description on the menu says mashed potatoes instead they just send over rice. I was so disappointed I spent over 25 dollars for food that tasted like trash. If I wanted bland food I would not have spent money at a "Caribbean" restaurant. I wanted the Caribbean flavors. Since I threw the rest in the trash now I have to go spend money somewhere else. If u are looking for Caribbean food or exotic flavors, don't bother with this restaurant. read more

Orchid7 - 14 oz. New York Strip - Caribbean Near Me - Dedham, Massachusetts

I have never given a restaurant a bad review in my life, but if I could give this less than one star I would. I went there with 2 friends last Friday night. I had been there many times when it was a different restaurant at the same location, so that might be why I didn't notice the hostess stand, because there had not been one there before, under different ownership. Regardless, there was no hostess out front, it was about 9:50 pm, and there were some empty tables, so we found a table and sat down. None of us had eaten there and we were really excited to be there. After a bit, the hostess came over and started talking to my partner. The music was very loud and he couldn't hear her. Then she turned to me and said, "That's very rude restaurant etiquette of you." I was shocked and asked her what she meant. She repeated that we had been rude and said "You should have waited to be seated. You can't just come in here and sit down." Woah! What a way to turn off new customers. I apologized and explained we had no idea we were supposed to wait. We had not seen the sign. Then she says in the same pissed off tone of voice, "Do you have a reservation?" Of course we didn't. The place was at least a third empty and I doubt people were making reservations for 10:00 pm. She tells us we will have to move. Then she takes us to the worst table in the place. It is next to the door which means it is cold, and right in front of the band. We had already told her numerous times we were having trouble hearing her over the band. It was obvious this woman did not want our business so we left without getting anything. I worked in food service for years and I can't imagine treating a customer the way this woman treated us. It was insulting and humiliating for all three of us. I hope that it was just this one employee. I hope that the owners are nice people and the restaurant does well. But this one experience really soured me on the place. read more

The food was great, creative and flavorful. A great value. The waiter was friendly and helpful with our choices.

Went here on a Thursday evening at 7pm. The food was excellent! We had the grilled shrimp with black rice and the salmon. Service was very good, our waiter was friendly and attentive, refilling our water glasses and checking in on us occasionally. The decor is artsy, warm and comfortable. I do wish the lighting was a little dimmer as it was very bright. And I'm not a fan of all the TV's on the walls- very distracting and takes away from the ambiance. read more

A large group of us just celebrated a birthday dinner at Orchid7 Fusion. We all had a great time and the food is absolutely terrific. We tried various dishes and the continuous feedback from the group was the food exceeded all expectations. The staff is very attentive, friendly, and certainly provided us all a great memorable evening. Thanks to the staff for being terrific and looking forward to my next experience dining at Orchid7! read more

This place rocks! The staff always seems to be in a great mood, treat the customers really well and truly enjoy working there. It's a super lively spot that has had great music playing each time I've been there, creating a fun atmosphere too. And of course the food is some of the most delicious I've ever had. Highly recommend the jerk wings, and if you're lucky enough to go on a night that they have the snapper as a special, that is a must try. I think I ate every single possible piece of meat off the fish! Cannot say enough about how great this restaurant is! read more

Great food, slow service. I've visited in multiple occasions and every time everyone in my party enjoyed their meals.

Always incredible. The staff is super friendly no matter when u come in. They serve late ..The music is bumpin. And the food was delicious. Don't be afraid to hop in. I'd honestly give a better review if I could. read more

went back to give it another go sad that basically same thing happened sat at the bar nobody helped or payed any attention to us.

Great food and drinks! Great vibe! The venue turns into a lounge Friday and Saturdays nights which is nice casual vibe for a Friday night. The owner is really friendly! read more

The highlight was the Jerk pasta, and the shrimp that we got as an add-on had nice flavor but were sawdust-dry and tough (won't get those again). The sweet potato fries were pretty good and would be nice with a bbq ketchup dipping sauce (not worth $12). The pork plantain sliders had a really nice slaw on it, but the pork was overwhelming and definitely not worth $18. The blue cheese flatbread was pretty good. The low-light was the $21 burger. We ordered med-rare and came well-done, but worst of all it looked and tasted like a food service burger, definitely not hand-made as the description says. The prices are high for what we were served. We really wanted to love this place and we'll give it one more try once they are open for a few more months, but it was disappointing. read more

We got the salmon entree and shrimp entree and both were very flavorful. The passion fruit Moscow mule was one of the best mules we've had! The passion lychee martini was delicious too! Looking forward to going back to try more menu items! Friendly staff and good music were both a plus too. read more

Love the vibe of this place and the food. Everything is so flavorful. Favorites are the jerk wings and open face sliders with goat.

I have patronized this restaurant twice, and chose to celebrate my birthday there this past weekend. As always, the food was fantastic, service was good, and the vibe was wonderful! I recommend reservations if you are going on a weekend and parking can be a challenge during their busier times. Otherwise, my experience with Orchid 7 was outstanding on both visits. Btw, each time I was there the owners visited our table for a brief chat. Little touches like that make all the difference in a guest experience. read more

Great caribbean fusion food! Super cool vibe, local artwork and friendly service. Loved it!!!!

Food is great service not so much New people still learning on the job I felt I do not mind the crevice ....love the cooking and the music . Walking distance from home. I will be there again. Yes I do recommend read more

Went here on a first date last night. Our male server was very nice and the drinks and wings were good. I was honestly enjoying things. My issue was toward the end of the evening. I was getting ready to leave, bill was paid by my date and I was putting on my jacket and gloves and the hostess or another server walked over and told us to get up and essentially kicked us out saying she needed to seat another large party. It was so strange considering we just spend money and were literally packing up to leave. I don't understand why she felt the need to do that. Surely we were not packing up and getting bundled up to sit and talk for another 15min. Very rude and inconsiderate. I will not be returning. read more

We stopped by on a whim after a movie across the street, and were very pleasantly surprised. The service was friendly and attentive. We felt at home. The food was yummy. I had the plantain tacos, and will definitely be back again for them. My wie's dinner - a spicy pasta dish (I forget the name) was also excellent (and there was enough for me for lunch the next day. Check it out. read more

We came with an expectation of a fusion of the Caribbean, but left feeling underserved. Our wait staff was not using good communication skills in the food was lacking flavor. Service to our table was stagnant and without understanding our want for the request of food, we waited without continuous communication from waiting staff and it led to an unsatisfactory visit. The decor is very inviting and open yet we felt lost in the experience due to lack of inspiration on the menu. I look forward to seeing some enhancements to the menu. read more

When I was not hungry the whole staff came over and was questioning me why I was not eating the food and I said to them I was stuffed I did not like that at all. Have a customer is full. Then you should let them eat what they want without looking over their shoulder and questioning them. read more
