The Scene – Well-heeled west suburbanites relax in this airy dining room that's done in neutral colors, with white tablecloths and hardwood floors. Some artifacts and rustic furnishings add warming touches; large windows overlook Geneva's quaint State Street. – – The Food – Sean Eastwood's creative, contemporary Mediterranean cuisine is a welcome diversion from familiar fare. For starters, a mound of tender steamed mussels is bathed in thick tomato sauce, fragrant with Pernod; crisp fried zucchini cakes get an intriguing treatment with classic Greek cucumber-yogurt…

beware special nights/holidays

by clwar at Citysearch

Three adults dined on Dec. 24 and it was my worst experience at this restaurant. The entree arrived after a 2 hour wait. Two of the three entrees, after the long wait, were served at a barely warm temperature (should have been hot).

On inquirying, we were told that the kitchen was just overwhelmed due to seating substantially more guests that could be handled with acceptable service.

Normally very good food, but stay away from "special" nights/holidays.

Your Palette Will Never Be the Same

by fox7880 at Citysearch

My wife and I dine at Isabella's any chance we get. I can't believe that last review...rude staff? Hardly! The staff is one of the reasons that we continue to dine at Isabella' s on a regular basis. The staff and food go hand in hand. Bacon wrapped chorizo dates and foie gras parfait with asiago brioche and kumquat marmalade are to die for! Try the spring vegetable ravioli and the cous-cous crusted butterfish. As for the desserts...strawberry rhubarb crisp is heavenly! Isabella's is a must...your palette will never be the same!

  • Pros: Great food, Great Staff
