Isabela is a unique restaurant. We were staying in south side and we took the incline up to isabelas. Was an unusual way to climb a mountain to get to dinner! The views from isabelas can't be beat! You feel like you are sitting on top of the world. The pittsburgh skyline was beautiful! Seeing all the lighted bridges and buildings made you feel like you were on an airplane looking down on a magical city!
You had a choice of a $75 prix fix or you could order a la carte. We did the a la carte. My husband had the duck and it was tender and lean...well prepared. I had the sword fish. It was good but slightly overcooked. Salads were delicious as was the crispy shrimp appy. Our server was personable and attentive without being on top of us.
They did have a wine pairing if ou chose the prix fix for $40 which was very reasonable.
Isabelas is a small intimate restaurant. Perfect for a special occasion. Definitely a place that foodies would enjoy!
