Always friendly; always great food. The restaurant might be situated in the Midwest, but the servers offer a “southern charm” that set you at ease. The dining room is small and intimate, but quite cold in the autumn and winter since take-out orders are being picked up on a near constant basis through the main entrance. I typically sit in a window nook to avoid the blasts of cold air blowing through the open door. The only way to fix this is to open a new location for delivery and pickup, but that seems remote. So don’t leave your mittens and hats in the car because you may need them if you will be dining inside the restaurant during winter. One might be better joining the line of take-out orders and returning home than eating inside during colder months.
If I could offer a suggestion for another dish to add to their menu, it would be Penne alla Vodka. This would add some diversity to their sauces, as it seems only one sauce is used in each pasta dish, therefore each pasta dish tastes nearly identical in flavor. Spaghetti, mostaccioli, lasagna; it tastes the same in my opinion. I would encourage the proprietors to explore the possibility of a an additional sauce and experiment. The only other sauce they seem to have is marinara as a dipping sauce, which is quite tasty.
I am not partial to their pizza, but the rest of the menu is top-notch. Whatever improvements I feel might be needed for a tastier pizza, the quality of pizza Isle of Rhodes prepares is still light years ahead of Happy Joe’s on the same block and is quite impressive for a small, family owned eatery. Whether your heart is set on pizza, pasta, or Americana fare, Isle of Rhodes is ready to please...
   Read moreWe get Isle of Rhodes to-go relatively frequently, at least once a month. Normally we stick with some sort of pasta like the mostaccioli or even the pizza, but this time I decided to expand my horizons and try out the full submarine and dine-in! I had no idea it was going to be the size of my arm. It was decent, the bread got a little soggy from all the toppings so after awhile I just started tossing it to the side, but the sheer amount of food you get at this price point is very hard to beat. We also decided to try out appetizers for the first time from here and it did not disappoint; the cheese curds were fantastic! We ate them so fast I didn't even have time to get a photo. They are lightly battered and remind me of a curd from Culvers. I'm excited to try the rest of the appetizers now, especially since they are only $5.
I took some photos of the updated menu, the ones on Zmenu are outdated.
Being one of the few gems that exist in Morrison, I recommend...
   Read moreMy hubbs and I order here once a month now atleast and I have to say the service is ammmaaaaazing!! Everyone that works here always greets you with a smile when you walk in the door no matter how busy they are!! I worked customer service for 16 yrs and no matter how busy I got no matter how bad my night was you would never know it and that's how these guys are and I appreciate them so much. Customer service these days has gone down the drain alot of places so when you're treated so kindly when you walk into a place it just makes you feel very welcome. I love that about this place. The food is always hot and fresh 0 complaints here. We love it. Great food, great prices, & excellent service what more could you ask for?! Also the menu has a nice array of items to choose from and the portions are very good (you'll have left overs) Highly recommend!! Thanks to all the staff for the awesome job that you do!! --...
