   Booked an early dinner for 2 people midweek. It was a small anniversary celebration for us. The restaurant was very quiet and we were greeted warmly and friendly by the host who assured us we could store our wheelchair without needing to bring it down to the table. Server was super friendly and personable. Our drinks and food came extremely quickly - right after our bread (fresh focaccia and olive oil) and drinks had just been brought. The food overall was delicious and very high quality. I had pork belly and sausage bucatini and got a full piece of pork belly on top of the pasta which had a delicious creamy sauce. My husband had pizza and ate every scrap of it. Also had a side of cheddar bacon fries. Yum! We got 2 desserts - mulled wine poached pears and a caramel sundae (couldn’t convince hubs to get the Christmas putting parfait with eggnog anglaise!) and a couple of cokes and a mocktail. Value was good for what we got - I did note a few items on the menu were quite highly priced a steak over €40 for example but that seems to be the norm now of extremely overly priced select items. Overall a delicious meal, friendly, attentive staff and a nice interior / vibe / decor in the place. My only small complaint was it was pretty cold - needed my jacket put back around my shoulders during the meal, It was the start of the freezing cold weather outside this week so maybe hadn’t thought to get heating going inside just yet! Otherwise no real complaints and will certainly be back ! Thanks for a lovely evening at Isabelle’s.

   Outstanding food. I took a business group to Isabelles for dinner and they were blow away with the food. Best pork they had ever tasted. Service was also amazing. Professional, friendly and very warm. Looking forward to returning.

   4 of us had dinner in Isabelle’s this evening. Although initially disappointed with the limited enough menu for all courses (3 of us didn’t have starters due to the limited options) the dishes we did choose were excellent. We had a squid starter and main courses included pizza, steak and both pasta dishes. All were v tasty. The restaurant was fairly quiet (wet Sunday evening) and the waiter was v friendly and helpful. He appeared to be on his own so I’m not sure how it would work out if it got busier. We will return.

   As Dubliners, we were on the lookout for a new spot to host our friends and family when they visited. We had been considering Isabelle’s for a while, and today seemed like the perfect day to give it a try. Unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. The restaurant itself is stunning, but there were a few issues that made it hard to enjoy our meal. First, when we arrived with a reservation, we were seated right in front of the bar, with no one else in that section. It felt like we were eating in an empty restaurant. On the other hand, everyone else with a reservation was seated in the lively back area. Second, the coffee was terrible. It was burnt to a crisp and tasted like they had made it with ash. I ordered the pancakes, which were incredibly dense, dry, and covered in chocolate. I couldn’t finish more than two or three bites. I had a feeling they might have made them with pizza dough? It’s the most unusual pancake I’ve ever had. My husband and I were really looking forward to dining here, but sadly, we don’t think we’ll be going back.
