   Schmick looking and full of beautiful people.. Great service that was quick and helpful with the food exclusion list for our group. Just thought the prices were a little steep and while there were a few stand out dishes, for that $ locally, we’d like something a little more awesome. A bit hot on a hot day and no blinds to shade diners from the Westerly sun so they wore hats and glasses.

   Chicken main was exceptional. The Prawn Fatteh was another stand out dish. The corn and grain salad is top shelf. Eggplant dish was acidic and not our favourite.

   Isme had great food!! The lamb shoulder was really quite amazing - fall off the bone tenderness with just enough acidity to cut through the richness of the meat! I think they are still trying to find their feet with service though - just a few hiccups with the wine pour not being a full glass and when we entered the restaurant there was quite a lot of smoke from food prep but no ventilation and for some reason they didn’t open the doors so my clothes smelt like i was by a fire all night. Also they had me and my friend sitting across from each other on a big share table while the music was too loud so it was hard to have a conversation, but otherwise the food was quite impressive. Just needs a few tweaks which i think will improve over time - I would come back!

   We have loved JuJus Deli for a while so we’re excited to try Isme. It did not disappoint- the food was incredibly tasty and well presented. The staff were lovely and very helpful. It’s definitely going to become a regular!

   Loved Isme, the food was tasty and delicious and the service was great. It’s so good to have Isme as a local restaurant to Thornbury. We’ll be back.

    So fantastic to see a local fave reopen. With a new twist on their menu, the range was incredible and exciting to try. Amazing for the local community to have a new vibrant venue, I look forward to seeing the growth of isme further! Congratulations team!
