    First visit and very impressed. Among the best seafood restaurants we’ve eaten at. Lobster bite appetizer was delicious as was my wife’s bourbon salmon and my lobster pasta. Service was terrific, too. We’ll be back.

    Outstanding! One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve experienced. My family has visited AMI three times now and we always eat at Isola Bella. And we always leave saying we should eat there again before going back home! Wine, bruschetta, family-size Caesar salad, regular entrees, and nightly specials are all amazing! Kids loved Alfredo pasta, one with chicken, the other with shrimp. My wife loved the pillowy soft pesto gnocchi. And I loved my halibut with lemon, white wine risotto. Oh, and don’t forget to try the tiramisu for dessert. Cheers!
