Isabella Cafe

One of those restaurants you have to discover it!

Family business, no noise, Italian and old American music background, home made sauces, sour tasty chicken. Original wall paintings...

Cool little place in Tinley Park if you are in the area.

The bread that they give you with the meal was delicious, nice and light. For my entree I ordered the stuffed eggplant it was very good and paired very well with the Orzo and Spinach. Overall we had a really good meal.

This review would have been 4 stars but my only complaint was the wait time. There was only 10 people in the restaurant when we were there but it took an hour and fifteen minutes for us to get our food. We ordered our food about 10 minutes into being there so we felt as though it took way to long to get out food. I would definitely give the place another shot if I'm in the area I just hope the food doesn't take as long.

Wonderful experience and the food was delicious. Small space, almost feels like you are dining at a family home. We will definitely be back.

Wow. This place was a shocker! Drove by regularly and always said I'm going to stop one day. Today was the day. I went with two friends and both agreed it was very very good.

Started with calamari fried. Marinara was delicious and fried well. One has Pasta #1 special which was a garlic seafood masterpiece. I had the Fettuccine Salmon with a lemon dill sauce. Amazing! Gluten free pasta for my other friend also salmon but with an alfredo. Loved it!

It's a cute house on a busy street. There's outside tables when the weather is warm. We arrived right at opening so it was a bit warm but they opened the window for us and it was perfect. Quaint set up and nice staff. Not much parking behind but there is a linked lot off to the right and behind.

Pleasant little restaurant, inside what looks like a house.

A short Italian wine list. Pretty sure the bus boy was actually Italian - he no a-speak-a-good-a-English.

Silly Italian music - like an instrumental "That's Amore" playing on loop. Silly murals painted on walls.

Yet - all pleasant. Tacky in a fitting way. I was satisfied with my meal. Seemed liked a decent value.

I'd come back.

I love the food and wine pairing. I believe I had 4 pairings. I took home a free white wine. I would definitely go back.

Home made sauces, old Italian and American music. Not the fanciest place but simple and real. No host with fake Italian accent if that's what you're looking for! Haha
That limone chicken was appropriately sour.

Nice little place. Seating both inside and outside. Service was okay. The staff isn't the most engaging.

Food was good, not great. For an Italian restaurant, I found it strange that they didn't have Lasagna on the menu. Very disappointing.

We did have a large party -14 people, so it really took a long time for the food to come out.

Cozy spot in an old house. Food is good, Wine list is ok. Can be a little long on wait times for courses but for a decent dinner to relax or visit, not bad.

Great atmosphere. Plenty of choices on the menu, sure to meet the taste for your whole party. Staff are very nice.
