“ Isola Bella is in my opinion the best gem on the island. Everything is SO delicious and authentic. Service is always top notch. You MUST try the bread pudding. Tonight we had gnocchi Al pesto and the spaghetti and meatballs. We have literally never had better if either dishes. If you do anything while visiting here, TRY THIS PLACE! ”

I did have an issue with the pour of my wine and they came right over and filled it up ( more than I wanted and needed)! I was very impressed. The service was very good. Try it-you’ll like it!!! ”
“ Had the best meal tonight celebrating our daughter’s birthday. The food was fantastic and Dan was amazing attending to our party, which included our 20 month old grandson. As all one year olds can sometimes be, ready to eat and a little messy. He made sure to keep the food coming out in a timely manner and was so attentive to us and our grandson . Thank you Dan! Always a favorite place to relax and enjoy amazing food. ”

“ Fantastic dining experience on the Island! First time visiting Isola Bella on the Island- The restaurant is cozy and adorable with a laid back vibe. Our waiter was attentive and made us feel at home- he brought homemade fresh bread for the table and kept our water replenished. We started off with tasty peach Bellinis and shared a delicious Caesar salad with shaved Parmesan cheese. For entrees we enjoyed mouth watering Ragu meatballs over fresh linguine and Shrimp Fra Diavolo also over fresh linguine - the dessert menu looked delicious however we didn’t save room! We will definitely be back on our next visit! ”
