   I was in isabelles several times years ago and found it a very hit or miss experience. No longer in steohens day when you'd expect it to be not great they were fabulous. Food and service 5 star all around.

   We booked a table for Christmas Eve this year. Unfortunately it’ll be our first and last time. Waited at the entrance for over 10 mins to be seated. Food quality just didn’t meet the price point. Several staff served us and were doing their best but service was below par took approx 55 mins to receive our starter. The set menu wasn’t explained and the whole experience seems a bit frazzled, appreciate it was Christmas Eve but given the high price point I would expect a decent level of service and a more rounded food offering. Lots of full plates went back to the kitchen from what we observed, especially for the salmon starter.

   The service was ridiculously slow. We waited an hour between courses.

   We booked a table for 3pm on 22nd December for 5 people. We had assumed that we would be eating from the Christmas set lunch menu that was advertised online. Instead we were given the brunch menu which stated that it was served 10-3. I assumed that this was a mistake and asked for the lunch menu. I was informed that the brunch menu was continuing until 5pm. This was never communicated to us prior and the menu also stated that brunch would finish at 3pm yet despite this we were still served the brunch menu. I find it incredulous that you would continue to serve porridge and egg dishes until 5pm Christmas week. We were very disappointed to not be eating off the Christmas set menu and the only viable or realistic options for us on the brunch menu were pizzas and two burger options. From what we could see this is what everyone around us was ordering too. For next year we would ask that you reconsider the timing of your menus and also to communicate to diners regarding what menu they will be eating off prior to their dining experience.

   Traditional I have been bring my Granddaughter here for her Birthday for years as its her favourite restaurant. So disappointed overall standard was very poor. Under staffed which then reflected on the service. I did not say anything to staff as I didn't want to create a scene on my Grandaughter's Birthday. However half the food went uneaten & staff passed on comment. Won't be returning.

   Unfortunately our visit to Isabelle was very unpleasant. Service was very slow, took a long time to get drinks etc But menu was the most disappointing part of our afternoon. At 3 pm in Saturday before Christmas they was a brunch menu offered with mostly breakfast items. Non breakfast items very limited. Wouldn’t recommend for late afternoon/ early evening weekend dining.

    Our table was near the door which was comfortable but away from the main part of the restaurant - felt a bit lacking in atmosphere! Food was great and our server was very friendly and efficient! Look forward to another visit!
