I've been here for lunch as well as dinner. The food is delicious! I ordered a cup of baked potato and bacon soup and immediately regretted not ordering a bowl instead. I got fish and chips and my husband got a cheesesteak. Both of us ended up taking food home because the portion size was so large. My husband and I will definitely be back again.
Overview
Isabella's Eatery at 1181 Mt Cobb Rd in Mt Cobb, Pennsylvania, feels like one of those hidden gems you stumble upon and immediately want to tell everyone about. Tucked along a quiet road, the place greets you with a warm glow from its rustic windows and the comforting aroma of home-cooked meals drifting through the air. Walking in, the atmosphere wraps around you—wooden tables, cozy booths, and friendly chatter that instantly makes you feel like part of the community.
The menu strikes a perfect balance between hearty American classics and seasonal specials that reflect local flavors. Their slow-roasted prime rib, served only on weekends, practically melts in your mouth, while the hand-breaded chicken tenders are a favorite among families stopping by after school events. I once visited during autumn when they offered a butternut squash soup made from produce sourced from nearby farms, and the freshness was unmistakable. Each dish arrives beautifully plated, yet without pretense—clearly crafted with care rather than just for show.
What stands out as much as the food is how attentive and genuine the staff are. They don’t just take orders; they remember names, chat about the weather, and share what’s new on the specials board like they’re letting you in on a little secret. There’s something reassuring about seeing the same faces behind the counter each visit, a sign of low staff turnover and strong ties between the restaurant and the town. This consistency shows in the seamless service, even during the Sunday morning rush when locals flood in for their beloved fluffy pancakes and strong coffee.
Location-wise, it’s a convenient stop for travelers heading through the Pocono region while still very much rooted in local charm. Many regulars mention in their reviews that it’s their go-to spot for celebrating small milestones—birthdays, anniversaries, or just a Friday night after a long week. It’s not just about the food; it’s about the way the place makes you slow down, savor each bite, and feel grounded. If you’re anywhere near Mt Cobb, this is the kind of eatery that quietly becomes part of your routine, the one you measure all other diners against without even realizing it.

Recently found this great little place. I stopped here during lunch and am glad I did. The service was decent and the food was very good. The tasting for the day consisted of: Hot wings, fries, grilled chicken on Ciabatta bread, and a plain slice of pizza (see pictures) Food was quite good, service was good, atmosphere is casual and comfortable, and prices are reasonable. This place is easy on and off Rt.84. I'd recommend giving it a try if you are in the area.
I had really amazing clam linguini here. Basically a whole array of clammy shells and cool snip bits of aesthetic goodness. During my meal, someone said something insensitive and cruel to me…which made me sad, and nearly ruin my appetite. But luckily, I remembered someone named Isabella…who I thought was super beautiful. Then I felt better and was able to enjoy my food and saw Abdul enjoy his celery too. My mom had a nice salad and my dad had nice meatballs. It was a very yummy family meal and it was extremely homey inside. I would highly recommend coming here with family and friends.
Stopped by on our way back from vacation. What a gem! Had the linguini with clam sauce. BEST we ever had!!! Truly!!!! Servers were so nice as well. Wish they were closer to home!!
Isabella's Eatery is a must-visit! Their chicken parm exceeds expectations, always generous portions. And those devil fries? A perfect mix of hot and sweet that's downright addictive! Indulge, you won't regret it. The staff is always friendly.
We stopped in on a whim while traveling. Not a fancy place, but good food & service. Our server Ammie was great! Our food was very good. If we are by this way again, we will stop in. My wifes service animal was very welcome.
