  • A few weeks ago a friend of mine invited me to dinner, to catch up.
    I immediately fell in love with the atmosphere at the restaurant. I enjoyed the interaction we had with our very engaged waiters. And Isabella was a sweetheart!
    The food - was a-m-a-z-i-n-g!! I can still taste the Chicken Marsala! I enjoyed it so much, that while eating I did not have time to catch up!
    Will bring my family when they visit from Europe!

  • We dined at Villa Isabella last night. The food was outstanding, fresh and carefully prepared. Isabella and her staff always warmly welcomes you with a smile. We had such a great time that our 6:30 dinner extended to 10:30. Georgio and Mariano (our wait staff that night) were very friendly and attentive. Always accommodating Isabella makes you feel as family. Who needs Manhattan if you can experience this elegant, warm ambiance right here.

  • Dining again at Villa Isabella was great. Greeted warmly by Isabella and our waiter, Giorgio, was very accommodating. I requested garlic on my Caprese Salad, it was done to my taste. The Shrimp Fra Divalo, linguini on the side, was delicious. My companion enjoyed the Grilled Veal Chop, cooked to perfection. For dessert, the chocolate mousse, served cake wedge style was different and very good. We had a relaxing evening and an enjoyable meal.

  • Last Saturday night was my third visit to Villa Isabella's and I felt like it was the best yet. Isabella is an active presence and clearly knows what she's doing. I was glad we made reservations, because the place was packed. My lentil soup was of perfect consistency. The swordfish special I had was expertly cooked: flavorful and juicy. Final note: i thought it was cool to dine with a live piano player in the background.

  • We ate at Isabellas the other night and the service was excellent.
    The Decor was dated. There was NO piano player on a saturday night. The background music was elevator music and barely audible. Food was pretty good
    although the espresso was a different version than italian and bordering on terrible. Restaurant had about 50 tables and only 4 were occupied which causes me alarm ater reading the other bogus reviews. 2.5 stars out of 5.
