47 The Street - Braintree

Fresh and tasty eating, warm and helpful service. beautiful outside surface with a beautiful green view, will definitely return!

Food excellent, it's definitely the place to go for a decent Italian meal. The menu on their website is up to date, so we knew there were some great dishes. Plus they have an interesting specials list, so the choice is excellent. The building is old and charming inside, the service very friendly and welcoming. We had a lovely meal. One issue though. We chose this restaurant for a family meal because they have a children's menu. It was mum's birthday, so the boys wanted to come along. Lots of nice dishes on the childrens menu, so no fear that the kids would complain. One son had macaroni and bolagnase sauce, the other had ricotta and spinach ravioli. The bolagnase was a generous size dish, too much for a 6 year old in fact. The ravioli was 4 average size pieces in a butter sauce, our 8 year old finished this in 4 mouthfuls. That is not a child's meal, and we had to feed the poor boy from the rest of our plates. Being British we said nothing and smiled, which does not help. Please take note, that is not a child size main course.

Food was really tasty and well presented, good selection and friendly staff

Very accommodating and welcoming staff, good choice of dishes and reasonably priced, child friendly. Food delicious and they do not skimp on the portion either, I would definitely recommend.

This is a fantastic restaurant with excellent food and amazing service. We visited for Mother's Day, and even on such short notice (just one week), they managed to prepare a wonderful three-course meal for us. The starters offered a variety of choices and were truly enjoyable. The food was delicious, and the lasagna was outstanding. The service was prompt and top-notch. I would definitely return and highly recommend it!
