The potato pancakes were not good. The Caesar salads were a little odd. Basic in itself and fine but it came with provolone cheese. The meals themselves were fine. Chicken parm, veal parm, Lori's pasta. They were a bit bland and watery. The meat sauce seemed thicker and more flavorful.

They are on the right track!! Because they have been advertising heavily, this restaurant caught my…read moreattention and I wanted to try. One of my friends who is in the restaurant industry told me she heard poor reviews, so, guess what, we went to try without those friends!! We went with a group and happened to go for their valentine day special. Most got their special of "surf and turf", which was a very small piece of fillet and 4 shrimp. First off, I will say, the food itself was very good. No one was a fan of how this dish was presented, all on one large dish to be split by the couple. Once split, it cooled off quickly and looked more like an appetizer or tapas (small plate). My biggest recommendation would be quantity. For example, the salads were very, very skimpy. The "sides" with the surf and turf special were also, very skimpy. Now, we have dined all over the globe in very high end restaurants and understand quantity does not equate to quality, BUT, in this instance, it seems Isabellas is trying to make or remake their name in the local restaurant scene. They are doing so much right, just increase the quantity of a few of the items. For example, the special surf and turf dinner for two, had there been an ever so increase in the potato au gratin side and the spinach (which, I would also say, needed a bit of help, not bad, but one more like Ruth Chris's renowned creamed spinach) would have been better. So, I don't think making those servings just a wee bit larger would increase the cost of goods significantly, but would certainly go a long way in making the average diner feel more satisfied.

I asked the server for his recommendations on entrees and he was very helpful. I chose the sole with seafood in champagne sauce. It included a large piece of sole, several nice sized shrimp and three homemade crispy crab balls. It was all so delicious including the sauce, and my husband agreed. My potato and broccoli side was flavorful lots of fresh garlic. It was a very generous amount of food overall and even though I ate way more than I should have, I still had leftovers to take home. My husband enjoyed his obviously-homemade fettuccine bolognese. The glasses of ice water tasted good. We shared a dessert they were experimenting with, a warm Portuguese egg custard tart served with with vanilla gelato, whipped cream and caramel sauce(they also offered chocolate or raspberry sauce). Free off street parking, comfortable welcoming atmosphere, friendly helpful staff. We will be back. I don't understand all the negative reviews. Please ignore them and give this business an opportunity to prove them wrong.

This restaurant is inside the woodlands inn resort which is an incredibly breathtaking resort. For…read morethat alone the restaurant is beautiful. A nice outdoor brick oven pizza place steps away from the rooms sounds like the perfect weekend for me. The pizza varies. The grama tastes like a dijorno frozen pizza so not much to write home about however the plain is a very good tasting pizza! It seems more homemade not frozen! We got both pies and also caesar salad w ahi tuna. I was IMPRESSED w how good quality this fish was but the salad was stale dry and lazy. Its weird that they go from top to bottom but it just seems lazy for the most part. They can easily put more effort but choose not to. However for an easy fun pizza night steps from your room in this beautiful resort its a great choice! The back patio is loud like a club so sit in the front! Best of luck to everyone involved!

Was on a company road trip today, where I was the driver, driving from Honesdale to White Haven. At…read morethe exit where we got gas, was Bettelli's Villa. We arrived and the door was locked. We called and they opened in a half-hour. I looked all around and every fast-food joint in the area was close by. Since it was my project and I was the driver, I said let's just take a break and wait the half-hour. Was so glad that we did. The door was now open, we were seated, and ordered two pizzas, some soups, and some garlic bread. It took us forever to place our order too, because we couldn't decide what to get and I had two project managers with me. No one could make a decision? A custom pie and Jess' Favorite or something like that. The pizza came out and my heart sank a bit... Thin crust pizza, which I'm not a fan of... I took the corner closest to me and couldn't be happier with that bite. Crispy bite with a thin layer of crispy dough with an amazing sauce. My mouth was tingling, feeling all of those flavors. Well worth the wait, and just an amazing bite. The two project managers ordered some pizza half-baked to take home with them, it was so good. Service was great, food was great, a nice break from life. By far the best option in that area.

I came into the restaurant at 6:28pm, they said they are making it now, which to me sounded like "we are starting to make it now" and I wasn't wrong because I didn't get my food until 7:03pm. I stood in the way of the bathroom and front door (which by the way, slams loudly every time someone walks in or out of the building) because there is no where else to stand or sit for 30 minutes. I have bad knees, so this wasn't pleasant for me. I was so annoyed and I told the man who gave me my order that I was frustrated that it took that long and he couldn't care less, said "sorry we're a man down" and then just walked away. Very frustrating and I barely got any noodles with my order.
