    We enjoyed an EXCEPTIONAL meal Sunday night of Marathon weekend! From the manager who greeted us at the door to our very friendly and attentive server, staffing was wonderful. The menu was sinfully delicious with so many wonderful meals to choose from. Our food arrived in appropriate timing, hot and was even more tasty than we could imagine! We’ll be back… again and again!!

    Absolutely excellent. We happened upon this gem by chance and have been back twice and planned a big family dinner there! Location, service, wine list all excellent. Now for the food. Definitely go for the home made pasta. To date we have had and loved the lobster ravioli, mushroom ravioli (special with mushroom sauce), lamb ragu and of course salads. Oh and chicken cacciatore- all above compassion in the north end. Bon Apetit

    Best servers ever - Olivia, Chasta. Unbelievable service and food and drinks. I’ve eaten in Toronto and Edmonton and this place blows them away. Need one in Boston

    Our favorite restaurant in the North End. We travel from Maine and have teenagers. When we get to Boston, they always ask two things; Are we eating at Isabella and are we going to Mike's for cannoli. This restaurant is small and personal. Always well done.

    Bland food. Chicken Parm tasted like it had canned sauce. Service was very mid. Couldn’t find my reservation after telling them 4 times my name. Finally they got it. Will not return. Many better options on the North End

    The food quality was cheap and it tasted that way. The chicken came premade/frozen. The sauce tasted like cheap supermarket sauce. The olive oil that came with the bread was too light and did not taste like olives. In fact it had no taste. In addition, I made a reservation and my group of 3 were asked to leave early bc people were waiting on our table. Another party was also asked to leave but there were no people outside waiting to be seated. The waiter was also rude. I regretted choosing that restaurant for my trip to Boston. I will not be returning.

    Great food! Scallops and risotto were tasty! Meatballs were moist and delicious. Lobster ravioli was also fabulous! Waiter was nice, attentive, and was always around to refill our wine glasses. Great dinner experience!
