Didn't get it right
DESCRIPTION: I ate at Bogart's on Saturday, August 10 at about 6:30pm. Before I could ask for a table the hostess asked if everyone was present. I was still waiting for my husband and was told, nobody is seated until the entire party has arrived. OK, I'll stand. I had my 4-yr old with me. There were no chairs outside of the bar area. I was exhausted, but I stood. Various parties came in, most were greeted with, "Has everyone arrived, there is no seating until all parties have arrived." What ever happened to, good evening welcome to Bogart's! I requested one of four tables in their outdoor seating area and was told 20 minutes. After about 10 minutes, one hostess commented to another, "I'll try to get that table to hurry up, they've been there a while." Referring to one of the tables in their outdoor area. I'm not sure what she said to the couple, but they came out rather quickly. My husband arrived, we were seated. When we were half way through our salad course, our entrees arrived. They said oops. But I watched as the next table had their entrees served during their salad course. I guess you shouldn't plan on hanging around at Bogart's. They obviously have a McDonald's turn around target to meet. The food was also disappointing. Canned green beans were served with my steak. The garlic mashed tasted like a flavor packet had been added (very commercial tasting). All in all, they didn't get it right. I will not be returning.

DESCRIPTION: The meal was one of the best in the Area. I called ahead on a Saturday night and heard it was an hour wait, so I added my name on the waiting list. I was quoted an hour wait, so I finished getting ready an got in the car and headed to Bogarts. When we arrived there was valet, which was nice because parking seemed to be scares. I proceed to the front desk to them I was there. They had told me they are cleaning up my table now and I could be seated in just a moment. Oh boy did I get dirty looks from the other customers, I guess they didn't know you could call ahead. Well we started off with a few cocktails, (i had the chocolate martini, it was the BEST I have ever had with cocoa around the rim of the glass) I had the queen filet (I swear it was a King size but the server reasured me that it was the queen size. Husband had the shrimp scampi wish I have to admit I was stealing off his plate. Everything about our meal was great and we even had enough to have left-overs the next day. I definately will be returning.

Tasteless
DESCRIPTION: I went to Dragon Palace for the first time over the weekend. I ordered Moo Shu Shrimp, egg rolls, and their vegetable fried rice. Each one was more disappointed then the first. Their moo shu was so gross. I could not even finish my meal. The fried rice also was terrible. It had no taste whatsoever. I hope to never have to experience something this awful again.

DESCRIPTION: We have visited Isabella twice since moving to the area and have found a gem. The atmosphere is casual and comfortable, the service is outstanding. Among our favorites are the rigatoni with smoked chicken, and the garlic and eggplant appetizer. Do not,whatever you do, miss the grilled shrimp with lemon creme appetizer..it is to die for.

A Most Memorable Experience
DESCRIPTION: I had the pleasure of dining at Isabella's on Mother's Day with my mother, aunts and cousins. There was a total of eleven of us and everyone in the group had nothing but praise for this restaurant. The waitresses/waiters were attentive and very friendly and the food arrived at the table hot and delicious. The desserts were sinfully delicous as well. Isabella's has a very relaxed and "at home" feel. I highly recommend this establishment.
