Excellent Tapas and Sangria. The tapas were on par with what I had in Madrid and I can't think of anything on the menu that I wouldn't recommend.

Isabella's is our "go-to" restaurant when we want a fancy dinner. The service is awesome, the atmosphere is unique and the food is excellent! Try the goat cheese fritters with shallot vinaigrette or the asparagus fries, served in a champagne glass with dipping sauce. The meditteranean seafood stew is spicy and flavorful! A great dining experience!

5 Stars: Wonderful Food! (by Melinda G.)

For a very long time, I had been wanting to try Isabella's. However, my husband who doesn't like to dine out anyway, resisted. I finally got him to go, and by the time we finished dinner his reply was, "I think I have a new favorite restaurant!"

The food was absolutely fabulous! We began with a couple different Tapas, one of which was a shrimp dish. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. Our main entrees were equally as fabulous, and my husband's dish (bacon wrapped giant sea scallops) was one of the best I had ever tasted!

I highly recommend giving this place a try!

5 Stars: Great place to get out with friends (by Wypkjen Y.)

We love going here for a mom's night out. We each order one or two appetizers and share. The drinks aren't too bad either.
The mussels and baked brie are great!

The best part of many restaurants' menus is the appetizer list, and sometimes the best meal you can get is to order several appetizers to share with a friend instead of getting one entree each.

That's why tapas cuisine is so wonderful. It's Spanish (think creative combinations, a wide variety of flavors, and mild spice), and the usual way is to order two or three tapas dishes per person, giving you a wide variety of flavors to sample -- a satisfying meal that won't leave you feeling stuffed. Of course, if you want to have an entree, there are good ones to choose from -- especially the paellas. And the wine list is excellent -- not terribly extensive, but offering some truly excellent wines at very reasonable prices. In tapas dishes, try the goat cheese fritters with bread, the chicken with chocolate sauce (like a Mexican mole, but less spicy), or the portobello mushroom with spinach and cheese; for dessert, don't miss the flan.
