    Our experience was outstanding. Felt as if we were visiting family. Food was great. Portion sizes were grand and very satisfying. We will definitely return again and again. Booking with the open table app really makes it simple to make a reservation and we were grateful for the notification’s. Easy ten on ten experience.

    We had an okay experience. Restaurant was very loud so we were practically yelling at each other. Food was good, nothing special though for typical Italian fare. The frustrating part was we made a reservation for 7:15 for two people and did not get seated until 7:50. Seemed a bit unreasonable and all we received was one “sorry”.

    It was my first time at 147, and the experience was great overall. Service is amazing. Best I've had in recent memory. Our server, Tony, was attentive, but not too attentive, so it was just right. He even caught on to the hint when I mentioned that it was my wife's birthday, and he brought out a complimentary dessert with a candle without me asking. Seriously, great situational awareness. The food is fantastic. I ordered the chicken parmesean, and my wife had the chicken marsala. Both meals are flavourful, delicious, and filling. The portion size is huge, and the price is very reasonable. The only constructive thing I have to say is that the music is way too loud. There's really no need to have loud music in a place like this. I will eat here again.

    Always a great experience. The Melangrano Salad & Chicken Marsala was outstanding. Espresso martini’s - next level. Special appearance by Foti makes it a fun night!

    Thank you for our special night out. We all turned 70 this year. So we treated ourselves to fine Italian meals, even though it was a messy winter night for driving. Love the ambiance!

    First time at this restaurant, the food was good, the server was excellent…unfortunately there were a few circumstances that did not allow us to enjoy the experience as much as we would have otherwise…we were seated right in front of the door and so it was cold with people coming in and out, and quite a busy area with so much traffic…so next time there, I would rather leave before sitting at this table again…I would strongly suggest this table be removed all together. Also, a table next to us had some incredibly loud people which further degraded our experience…having said all that, I will return for another try because the rest of the space looked like it may have provided us with a much more enjoyable experience.
