Have been coming here since they opened and my family and I were in disbelief last night after our meal. We waited 2 hours for some of the worst Italian food I’ve had. We had to send the Penne Vodka back because it genuinely tasted like water. I went to see reviews afterwards and none of our dishes looked how they were supposed to. It was also extremely loud inside. Despite everything, the waitress was very very kind, but unfortunately I will not be going back.

Owner thinks he’s big man and walks up to me multiple times while drunk at the bar and harasses me and tries to fight me. Disgrace of an establishment and owner is an absolute moron. Learn to treat your customers properly instead of trying to drunk fight them for no reason.

Absolutely awful. Items described on menu came completely different. Mussels in white wine came in a tomato base. The eggplant was thick and previously frozen. No sauce on the eggplant “Parmesan “ sliced cheese was flopped on it and not even fully melted.

My favorite spot on the island! Cozy, welcoming atmosphere with kind and enthusiastic staff. Kat was my bartender. She’s the best! Ordered the orecchiette and it was delightful. Going to Isola is like getting a warm hug! Gonna become a regular!

Kayla and I had an amazing dinner Steak night. Kayla's steak was out of this world delicious. I had the Swordfish which was tasty and delicious. Thank you Brad for treating us like family. We will be back again soon.
This is one of my absolute favorite places on the island. Food is alway so good and atmosphere is friendly and cozy. They have a great bar area to hang at after or before dinner too!
Had the pleasure of my wife and I returning to one of our Islands restaurants, Isola last night and was really pleased. It’s nice to begin thinking of enjoying local restaurants after a summer of visitors, guests and other obligations. Really enjoyed the Cioppino with pasta. Sauce was wonderful, rich but not heavy and overbearing. It was filled with seafood, including shrimp, octopus, squid and shellfish. Totally enjoyable nice portion, so that I had enough to take home for lunch the next day. My wife thoroughly enjoyed the swordfish special served over various vegetables. It was prepared to perfection and the caper sauce complemented the entire dish. Really nice place to enjoy that is “affordable”.

Great atmosphere on the front porch and nice drinks. Good food with friendly service. Delicious risotto balls and burgers. Stays open a bit later than most places on the island.

We had a family dinner of 10 last week at Isola and all of us enjoyed our meals. We mainly had pizza and salads, which were fresh and tasty. The service was above average. Highly recommend.
Lovely little Italian place, good food, friendly service, prices no less but no more than you'd expect for one of the roughly two places to dine on a very upscale island. :)
