Tom and Patrick have spent years attending weddings, corporate galas, and fundraising events throughout metro Detroit — over 30 each year. While many venues delivered flashes of excellence, none offered a fully seamless, elevated experience from start to finish. Overcooked steaks, long bar lines, or sound systems that kill conversation — these weren’t rare hiccups. They were industry norms. And they decided that wasn’t good enough.
They imagined something better: a space that would transform tradition, surprise with intention, and set a new standard for how events should feel. Not an “either/or” solution — but an “and.” Elevated and effortless. Grand and intimate. Beautiful and functional.
The Seven was born from that mission. It’s the result of hundreds of hours spent rethinking the details — large and small — that create not just an event, but an experience. Every square inch is designed to foster connection and craft lasting memories, all through the universal languages of food, sound, and celebration.

It began as a hunt for office space. Tom and Patrick were searching for a home for their growing business, Sushi Kabar, and what they found was far from a standard office park. Tucked in an industrial corridor was a massive, 20,000-square-foot building — part warehouse, part opportunity. From the moment they stepped inside, they knew this was more than just an address. It was a canvas.

Where most would see storage space, they saw potential. They weren’t venue experts. And that was their secret weapon. They weren’t burdened by how things should be done — only how things could be.
Instead of asking, “How many people can we fit?” they asked, “What’s the best possible experience we can create for 200 guests?” With that guiding question, The Seven began to take shape: not just a venue, but a vision.
They obsessed over what makes an event unforgettable — the warmth of shared food, the thrill of perfectly tuned music, the ambiance of light that transforms a room. They also challenged the norms that divide people — like seating charts and static tables — to create a space where everyone could feel part of the same moment, together.
The result? A purpose-built venue where every detail is intentional. Distinct lounge spaces spill into the dance floor. Conversations flow freely. Food, cocktails, and music are elevated to an art form.
At The Seven, hosts don’t throw parties — they curate experiences. And guests don’t just attend — they connect, celebrate, and remember.
