We have been coming to Issabella's on and off since it opened and have always enjoyed our experience. It's been some time since we were last there as we have been visiting many of Miami Beach's other gems, but it was just like going home. Victor and the team make everyone feel so welcome and appreciated. We were also thrilled with the menu and some of the new items since our last visit. Issabella's is truly THE exquisite, accessible and charming restaurant of Lincoln Road! A true standout in our opinion.

This is a go to restaurant of mine ! My Fiancé and I love to come here for date night and my most recent visit I brought some of my friends and we had such a blast , Frank our waiter was very very nice , outdoor seating was very relaxed and not as loud as you’d think but honestly I love sitting inside because the atmosphere is so romantic and beautiful, the Spicy Feta is a great appetizer, Filet mignon was great especially with Thyme butter and paired with the Spicy Rigatoni you can’t go wrong! Also their cocktails are really really good my friends and I had two each :) thank you Issabella team , we love it here !

We had a great experience at Issabela’s! The food and service were great and we enjoyed sitting on the patio in the nice weather. All of the food was excellent and very well timed. They even gave us complementary limoncello! Would definitely return.

We live in Miami Beach and go to restaurants all the time. We love Issabella’s. It’s the best restaurant on Lincoln Road. Food and service are really good. Also right next to the theater and so convenient for a pre show dinner.
