Isabela On Grandview has a spectacular view. The best thing about Isabela On Grandview is the spectacular view of Pittsburgh. The food was definitely good with a beautiful presentation. I thought that the interior of the restaurant would have been nicer. Staff was very good.

best concept – 7 courses for 65$ what a great concept. finally found somwhere that isnt typical pittsburgh, Le mont style.... same menu everywhere you go. Food was great. service was good. great veiw. portion sizes perfect. 7 courses may sound like a lot but it was the perfect amount. if you havent checked this place out you definetly should. gave the chefs 20$ and they took extra care of me, came out to the table and explained evry course. truly amazing...dont be afraid to drop a 20 spot, it will be worth it!

quite pleased – my boyfriend and i shared each of our main selections and got to taste half the menu in one evening! for the appetizer, i had the lobster/scallop pastry which was AMAZING, my bf had the quail, which was alright. for the fish, i had the seared tuna which was quite good, and he had the scallops which he loved. i found them a bit too salty. for the meat, i had the duck, which we both loved, and he had the pork tenderloin sausage which was a sizeable portion. the cheesecake is fluffy and perfect and the chocolate... read more

Great view and food, but a little noisy – My girlfriend and I had our Valentine's Day dinner this year at Isabela's. It was our first time dining there, and we really loved the view, food, and service. The waitresses were friendly but not obstrusive, and the seven course dinner was paced extremely well. Our only complaint was that the noise from the open kitchen spoiled the romantic ambience. We didn't get the quiet little dinner experience we'd expected. Isabela's is still a fantastic restaurant, of course. Just be aware of... read more

Amazing view with even better food – My girlfriend and I went here for her birthday and the food was unbelievable. The crab cake was a ball of fresh buttery jumbo lump crap crusted with breadcrumbs. The lamb shank practically fell off the bone. And words can not even describe the cheescake. It may seem a bit pricey at 60$ per person but for 7 courses you cant go wrong. Everything is just enough so you leave full but not over stuffed. The only 2 minor drawbacks are the cocktail prices ($10 each) and that it can get noisy b/c ... read more

Eclectic cuisine and Mount Washington views are the attractions at this intimate 40-seat eatery. – The Scene The view is spectacular from the large windows, but the open kitchen is as much a draw to the eye as the city below. Couples, business people and families all join in the convivial, sometimes noisy, fun. Service is impeccable, vigilant yet discreet. The Food The menu features traditional French dishes with spicy, but not hot, Southwestern twists. Appetizers include crab souffle with ancho-tomato sauce and braised cala... read more

Isabela on Grandview – Location, Location, Location. A view to a thrill. Food is good as is service. Six course meal for $60 is a great idea, but the wine list is a thief. $45 for Ravenwood Zin that costs $10 and that is the least expensive bottle on the list. I would return and drink water. We got vouchers for $60 off on our next meal. Courses repeated some of the same food...spinach and rice kept reappearing. The greeter looked like she was just scrubbing toilets in sweats and decor in the restaurant was totally lacking...... read more

Best of kind in Pittsburgh – I went to Isabela's to celebrate my anniversary and was surprisingly surprised. As a native of New York, I have to admit that I have struggled to find a nice restaurant that was equally good in ambience as well as food, and not just a pretentious over-priced restaurant. What makes Isabela's so unique is its intimacy and extremely good service. Few tables and an amazing view contribute to the spectacular ambience. Most importantly, the quality of the food matched the price. My tuscan tarte appetiz... read more

A special night – My husband and I went to Isabela's to celebrate his birthday and Valentine's Day. We live over an hour away from Pittsburgh, but go up there for special occassions. Well, what a wonderful night and such fabulous food! The seven courses are well-planned- an outstanding combination of flavors and textures. I thought w/7 courses, I'd be stuffed, but the portions are perfect sizes for an evening of culinary delights. Crab souffle and mushroom appetizers were delectable - duck was scumptous. View is gorgeous, we... read more
