Isola Bella — Restaurant in Gotland Municipality

If you are looking for genuine, good Italian food, don't get fooled by the name and the fake laundry hanging above the entrance, this is not the place to find it. The pizza is at the same level of any Swedish take-away pizza & kebab places, which is, not good, but still twice as expensive. I had a pizza vegetariana with burned aubergines and a hard, hardly edible crust. Add to this the fact that we had to wait for an hour to get our meal, and that other dishes (for example pasta) were not satisfying either. As an Italian living in Sweden I have tried a lot of pizzas who are not really the same thing you get in Italy, but this really felt like a joke considering the price you pay for the food.

This lunch buffet is massive, with a wide range of Italian cousine! Just had the Carbonara w. pasta, but...

Went there for a late lunch buffet. The food was VERY FRESH and good alternatives and for a decent price (compared to the alternatives).

However, sadly, for being an Italian restaurant, we expected it to be some spices in the food, but sadly the cooked food (except the pizza) was rather Tasteless. The two tomato sauces and the chicken had barely anything added mote than salt.

The service from the girls/women were great! We all were allowed to stay after lunch hours - no rush at all. Isola Bella has probably The Best Coffee...
