Isabella’s is a favorite brunch spot on the Upper West Side. The lines to get in on a Sunday are ridiculous. The food is good, although doesn’t warrant the long lines. The restaurant also tries to squeeze as many people as possible in at one time, so it's a tight squeeze even once you are seated. It doesn't make for a relaxing brunch. There are sidewalk tables in the summer months. I like this place, but it’s not worth an hour wait on a Sunday morning. Maybe it would be better to go for dinner.

Well allow me to begin with saying I typically tend not to critique restos. So... Recently, on holiday I went to Isabellas in New York City. So I am orginally from CT though previously been to NY a considerable number of occasions. My spouse and I adore the variety of dining establishments. Everyone at this restaurant astonishingly nice! The food was remarkable. The the level of quality along with quantity of food ended up being first-class. Even though virtually no real complaints. Excellent food! Me and my friend had a great night! So refreshing since there are a lot of New York eating places that are terrible. I'm a huge fan of the place. We definitely will be back soon.
