Ristorante Isabella

This restaurante is one of the greatest in a long time. Mo will alter the meal to your taste. We go there weekly. Most times call ahead and order then pick up and take home. Mo's Mediterranian Chicken is the best. Tiffany always has a smile on her face and always congenial. We recommend meeting Mo and making his place one of your regular stops. more

The service is amazing. Tiffany will have you set up and ready to go right in no time. Then to the food, boy are you in for a treat. Mo will cook it up right and serve a most generous portion. Hope you like left overs because you'll be eating for days. Truly I'm quite speechless. You must get down there and give it a try.. you will not regret it. They've found a customer for life in me. more

My husband and I went to Ristorante Isabella this evening for dinner, I had a coupon so we decided to check it out. The restaurant itself is charming and staff is nice and friendly. My husband ordered Salmon Picatta and I got the Penne Putanesca. My salad was very small and the dressing (Italian) was mostly oil so it wasn't very good. My husbands soup tasted like god foot it was worse than canned soup. The wait for the food was quite long and when we finally got our dishes mine was COLD and VERY salty. I was very hungry so I ate some but had to take a sip of water after every bite. My husband salmon was good but the lemon sauce on top was unbearably salty. He took the sauce off the fish so he could eat it. I do not believe I have ever ate worse food than THIS. PLEASE save yourself the time and money DO NOT EAT HERE. You are better off going to Olive Garden or Spaghetti Factory SERIOUSLY!!!! Pros: service ok Cons: BAD FOOD!!! more

Took my very finicky father there for lunch on a Thursday with incentive (coupon). My dad, who always touts his favorite spots in ""Little Italy"" in Chicago and NYC just wanted standard spaghetti, which their menu did not have per se. The waitress advised spaghetti pomodoro w/ a couple of meatballs and my dad reluctantly accepted. I ordered the Panini con pollo w/ minestrone. Pros: Amazing Food, Reasonable Prices Cons: Small Staff more

What a great place to eat in Covington. The food is most outstanding. Can't get this kind of food at most places, the flavors & freshness is the best in the Kent, Covington area, probably Seattle too. Lunch or dinner. Pros: Food is very fresh,& made to order, no cookie cutter here Cons: Closed on mondays more

My family, friends and I, all love this place! The food is to die for, The staff is friendly and you see the same familar faces each time you visit! The place is family owned and the food is unique. Try the sara rosa one of my favorites as well as their ceasar salad all homemade, family recipes! Its not a fast food place, so go there when you have a bit of time to enjoy it. Owner is also the chef and does all the cooking! Pros: Large portions, Friendly staff Cons: parking, Not a full bar more

As I read the bad review, I too realized I happened to be dining there with my husband and son that evening. I was within earshot of the shrimp complaint and thought the staff handled it appropriately. The guest was really out of line and if I had been the management, staff or owner, I would have called 911 because this woman and the man accompanying her appeared to be auditioning for the ""Jerry Springer"" show. Pros: fabulous food, personable service more

I have been a long-time enjoyer of RISTORANTE' ISABELLAS in Covington, WA. One of the marks of an operation where true CULINARY ARTS is practiced (*to the constant delight of patrons) is the start-off. Pros: Food, ambience, service, and wallet! Cons: hmmm ... parking??? more

The shrimp app. smelled so bad that I honestly thought someone near by was very ill. The staff seemed afraid of the manager, who yelled at me when I questioned the quality of the shrimp. There was a long wait to be seated, to have the order taken, and to be severed. Each person's food came out at completely different times (15 minutes+ apart). I could not have had a worse experience. I was a sever for several years, so I have great empathy for employees at restaurants... but this was horrific! It was clearly the management who was at fault. Please save your self the trouble and avoid Ristorante Isabella. Pros: the un-trained staff was trying. Cons: Manager, food, wait time. more

This is one of my favorite local ""date"" spots with my husband. Really good fresh authentic Italian food. It's a great restaurant to sit down, enjoy fine Italian cuisine, nice bottle of wine and good conversation. The most upscale dining in Covington. This is not a pizza and spaghetti place. The dishes offer fine ingredients and sauces with a black board specials. more
