I recommend Izabella. Come here every time I'm in South Lake Tahoe. They do a great job.

The atmosphere and customer service was great ! Making a reservation is better then walking in but the wait wasn't to bad about 15 mins we got the garlic bread with cheese ( it was delicious) , bruschetta ( which was completely amazing ! ) my boyfriend got the chicken parm and I got the salmon orgeganato both plates were very tasty and a good size portion ! To finish it off we got a tiramisu to share which was also very tasty! Definitely recommend this place the customer service was great very attentive the food was delicious price wise it was a bit pricey not to much but completely worth it ! When I come back to Tahoe this is one of the places I will definitely come back to over and over again

This place has been better in the past. You need a phone book to sit at the low, work out booths. The food is meh. Microwaved sauce with too much garlic. There are better restaurants nearby.

I visited on 19 March 2024 in the evening, I made payment at 8.57pm. I believe your staff added an extra zero to the tip I gave. I’ve lodged a complaint. You should look into it too.In case you were wondering, his service was horrendous. He made sarcastic comments when we asked for recommendations, was nowhere to be found when we needed service (we had to ask his colleagues to get him), and he practically threw the bill on the table and walked off towards the end of our meal. Stupid us for even leaving a tip.

After a day of hard skiing, we went for an early dinner at Izabella. We were seated immediately and our waiter was lovely. We shared a mushroom ravioli appetizer, and ordered pasta carbonara for dinner, plus a nice, reasonably priced bottled wine. I recommend it!

One of my all time favorites in South Lake Tahoe. It's a tradition to visit. Quality, ambiance, waiters, it's all top notch. Really captures Italy.

Loved this place! A friend recommended this place (lk raved about it lol) while we were in Tahoe, so we went to get some dinner here before heading back home. For appetizers, we got calamari, fried artichoke, garlic bread, and the green goddess salad. Everything was delicious! It was the first time I tried fried artichoke, but it was good too. They also provided the customary bread with olive oil before your meal. The bread was really soft, but I actually didn't like it as much compared to the regular harder bread they usually give at Italian restaurants. I got the clam linguini and they were very very generous with their clams. Took a star off because some of the clamshells had fallen apart into pieces, so you could possible bite into one or swallow one

Would definitely recommend Izabella for my outsiders. Saw their reviews online and they didn't disappoint. If you're driving, they have plenty of parking. Recommend making a reservation, they did get busy so planning ahead will save you time and less wait. Now for food! 5/5 seriously everything on the menu sounded like a solid pick so you can't go wrong with what you get. Got wine by the bottle, if I didn't have plans after I would have ordered another bottle, our server was also awesome giving us suggestions. Food came out at the perfect time. They a really good option for appetizers, would recommend getting any of them. Their cheese was delicious from the salad. Place is awesome for a romantic setting or a nice dinner.
Lovely Italian restaurant with casual vibes and delicious food. Staff were friendly and checked on the table often.

Excellent service, delicious food, and nice ambiance. Very pleased with our meal . We split the spaghetti and meatballs and our son and his wife split the chicken piccata . They charge a $3 fee for splitting but the portions are perfect and it's worth it! Everything was fresh and the service was outstanding . Glad we finally tried Isabella's and look forward to making it one of our regular yearly stops to Tahoe.

Izabella's was a nice option for a snowy night in! We were a party of 10 and made reservations the morning of. We were seated immediately and our server, Greg, was very attentive! Our wine and appetizers came out quick but let me just say that all of the plates were huge! Not many pictures because we were all starving but everyone truly enjoyed their plates! Expect leftovers! I couldn't wait to finish mine.

Sumptuous ravioli and a very decadent brownie made for a lovely evening out. Service was good, friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes without being invasive and in your face. Booth seating gives an intimate atmosphere and cuts down on the noise from surrounding tables. Excellent food for the price point. Would recommend and hope to come back at some point!
