    I had the Spaghetti ai Frutti di Mare - it was lovely - except for the clams that had pieces of grit in them. That aside, the dish was flavourful and well prepared.

    The restaurant is a 10 minute walk from the convention center. We were a group of 12 and the waiter did an excellent job of serving us. Everyone had a wonderful meal. Eccellente!

    I was really looking forward to dining with my close friends at Villa 47 as part of our First Thursday outing. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. We waited over an hour and 40 minutes for our food and had to call our waitress several times to inquire about it. Each time, she assured us that our food would arrive in 10 minutes, but nothing happened. By the time our food finally arrived, I was too full from eating the bread. The waitress did offer us free dessert to make up for the long wait. I did not enjoy the pasta I had ordered.
