They were extremely busy (3 birthday parties) but the service was still prompt and very attentive. All in our group of 4 enjoyed our meals.

Nice food and attentive service. Also, it was not noisy - some restaurants like to get "atmosphere" with piped music. Isolabella was not one of those I am glad to say.

Isolabella is a very welcoming restaurant with an exemplary service. The food is excellent, but for my opinion the restaurant is very comfortable where it is possible to enjoy the company of your fellow diners without feeling pressurized to leave or constant background music.

Loved this. It's a really good find, a traditional Italian restaurant. The lamb cutlets were tender and the sauce well seasoned. Their take on apple tart was different but Wonderful. I will definitely be going back.

Ambience was nice but the pasta was EXTREMELY salty! According to them, it was because the salted cheese that they used that made it salty. Don't see the point in using salted cheese because there wasn't any taste of cheese at all and all we could taste was salt.

Useful location for visitors as opposite the Premier Inn. Service fast & polite, wine list good. My funghi e pollo tagliatelle was good, my wife thought the crab in her pasta was tinned.

Excellent food as always. Efficient service, nice ambience. Proper Italian cooking with lovely sauces. I've been before several times and the standard has never dropped off, including an office Christmas lunch for fifteen people, which is always a mark of excellence.

Staff were excellent. Most of the food we chose was also superb but the crab linguine was only OK. Nothing wrong at all just not very interesting, hence a 4, otherwise higher.

We had an enjoyable meal at Isolabella. We were immediately greeted on our arrival, shown to our table and offered a drink. The food was delicious, the service was prompt and there was always somebody available if we required anything further.

Great buzz/atmosphere starters were good - melon/Parmalat ham and calamari with excellent Garlic dip. Mains were chicken and mushroom carbonate, which was superb and smoked salmon tagliatelle which was OK. Wine was OK.

Great restaurant. I immediately noticed how nice and modern it looked. Very clean and well lit. We were immediately seated and offered water straight away as it was a very hot day. Very good menu with a large selection. I thoroughly enjoyed my main of salmon tagliatelle and would recommend this. I will definitely come here again.

Food very good and service excellent, would definitely return here. Had a really pleasant evening with family and we were looked after well. Only downside is they add a service charge on the bill and would prefer to choose what tip to allow although this seems to be commonplace in restaurants nowadays.

Great atmosphere with particular note to the interior of the place, which those arching walls which took me back to the Italian classic trattoria and restaurants. Fantastic menu with wide variety of food from the antipasti till the digestivi. Suitable for vegeterians too as there is a wide selection in the menu. Well presented and polite members of staff. Will definitely come back and strongly suggest Isola Bella in Holborn to everyone.

Lovely food and lovely waitresses at a lovely price. The atmosphere is very welcoming and open all day, which made it ideal for our pre-theatre meal! Would recommend.
