Reviews Summary
RESTAURANTE ISIDRO garners praise for its personalized service, especially from owner Alberto, and generous portions of delicious grilled meats and fish. Diners rave about the exceptional desserts, particularly the pistachio cake, and appreciate thoughtful touches like complimentary drinks and flowers. While most reviews are glowing, a few mention food being excessively salty or certain dishes falling short of expectations, though other items like croquetas and wine selection are highlighted positively.
"My girlfriend and I were looking for a restaurant close to our hotel; we then stumbled across this place and it was an experience never to forget. It started with us being the only ones in the restaurant (it soon became busier around 21:00) and we were placed in a nice private table surrounded by Valentine’s Day references. The service was swift and super attentive, with the waiters explaining all the options on and off the menu (there were several extra things not on the menu which is always nice to have). They then came with a big loaf of bread, on the house, and three different brands of olive oil. Afterwards, the main course was delicious and plentiful. The highlight for us was, however, the dessert. One of the best desserts we have ever had; a pistache cake with a ton of extra delicious things next to it. Absolutely amazing! At last they offered a ‘chupito’ on the house and after paying they offered yet another one! The owner explained us the story of the restaurant and gave us some flowers upon leaving. An experience we will never forget!"

"The owner or manager Alberto was extremely professional and friendly. Allow me to explain: my grandfather and I were looking for a place to eat on a weekend and this place was busy. However, Alberto told us that he had a table that was reserved in 1 hour, and it we could sit down, order our food and drinks within that time period we could dine inside. Especially because it was too cold outside for my 88 year old grandfather.
Anyway, after a delicious dinner of oxtails and lamb we paid our bill and were ready to leave. Alberto insisted we stay for a drink and accommodated us on the patio by the space heaters. He introduced himself, shook our hands, and we thanked him for his kindness and hospitality. We will definitely return 1 day to this wonderful restaurant! Thank you Alberto!"

"Wow
There are not many places (if any), I would give a five star rating to, but this place is truly exceptional.
The whole experience leaves you feeling as if you have just visited something out of a Willy Wonka dream and everything from the elaborate, decor in the restaurant complete with live goldfish swimming at your table to the surreal psychadelic colours which hit you as you walk into the Toilet, tells you that this is a place you are not likely to forget in a hurry.
The attention to detail is topped off with a flower for the ladies when you leave after paying the bill which considering the quality and maybe overly generous portion sizes, I was sure there had been a mistake with - which they had not.
For this once in a lifetime experience I cannot recommend Isidrio enough, and for anyone who wants something a little out of the ordinary it is bound to impress guests of all ages, as can be seen from the countless numbers of happy customers when we visited."
