Came here today with my friends for brunch and ordered the Loco Moco along with the mochi mochi pancakes (we got matcha, mix berry and nutella to share). Presentation was very cute and the restaurant had a nice ambiance. Staff are friendly.
The loco moco was ok, but I had a lot of leftover rice. It definitely looked better than it tasted though. 3.5/5 not bad but not great.
I was REALLY hyped about the mochi mochi pancakes after seeing them from the blogTO video but I was really let down. I love mochi and always get mochi waffles at Mabu Station and other Asian cafes in Toronto. They're delicious because they're chewy and share that elastic consistency which makes mochi so great. The mochi mochi pancakes at Isabella's cut like regular pancakes do and does not stretch like mochi is supposed to. It is denser and thicker than your regular pancakes, but it definitely is not chewy like mochi.
If I was looking for regular pancakes I would have been very satisfied. But I came for MOCHI pancakes and it simply did not deliver. 1/5 for the mochi mochi pancakes that turned out to be not mochi at all.
