Everything was great, except a bit pricey. Although, I do understand the need for high prices with today's economy and labor costs. It's still good to support local businesses.

Very pricey, if you use a charge card, they add 3.5% to you bill. Credit card / convenience fee. Be advised owners... it's a cost of doing business ?! Shouldn't pass it down to your loyal customers.... who walks around with $500.00 cash in there pockets these days? You should find a solution.

Isabella misses the mark. First time going in years. It's missing the "IT" factor. Improve bars drinks, more craft more skill service providers. No one will pay for average drink when a place like Francesca has great bartenders, which draws in the crowd. My two cents

Stopped in for dinner before a concert. Food and service were good, but it took a long time to receive our food.

Great for a little treat or special occasion. Background music and quaint repurposed home sets the mood of being in an Italian American nonna's kitchen. The menu seems quite balanced in offerings, and the food is not overly salted, as can be the issue in venues like this. Salad vegetables were quite fresh. Bread was a little less so, so I would lean towards a bruschetta for those appetizers. Soup was quite flavorful, with a chicken stock that tasted house-made. Pasta was a perfect al dente. The pistachio and raspberry pairing with the cannoli was quite pleasant as well.
Vegetarian options: Definitely a lot of accommodations can be made, though vegan options are likely impossible due to dairy being a backing component of most sauces.
Dietary restrictions: All pasta (except ravioli) have gluten-free options.
Parking: Behind the restaurant, and a decent number of spaces.
Wheelchair accessibility: Unfortunately inaccessible.

This was my favorite local place for Italian food. The service was good, the food was good, and the prices weren't crazy. But I think they got a new chef or something because the food just isn't the same. The food is kind of bland and not up to their previous quality. I hope things improve soon.

Very nice quaint little Italian restaurant with good food and nice service. The portobello stuff mushroom and seafood pasta ranked very high but don't miss out on the rest, still pretty good, the roasted le of lamb was tender but needed a tad bit more seasoning... the Drinks were equally as good. All in all a very nice spot with very good service
Kid-friendliness: Nice layout so you don't feel squashed with the highchair, my grand loved the coconut drink

We went with friends and all of us thought the atmosphere and service were very good the food was just good. There are other comparable Italian restaurants in the area that I would recommend first.
Parking: It was our first time so we werent sure if the lot we parked in was meant for Isabellas or other businesses.
