My Nonna's name was Isola, a wonderful cook who gave me a passion for food and fresh, simple ingredients.

I have vivid memories of my grandmother turning plain bread into amazing desserts, simple apples into incredible fritters sprinkled with a little sugar and honey, and even treating my sunburns with olive oil. Thirty years later, I still savor every meal and moment.

Isola is proud to serve the finest local ingredients, dalla vite, from the vine. I hope you enjoy every bite, plucked from my family tree for your table. Buon appetito!

    Love this place. It has been one of the most consistently GREAT dining experiences in San Diego since I moved here 10am years ago. I brought a group of 8 people to enjoy the pizza there and everyone said the same thing. I’ll be back soon. 😎🎈

    We were told the Margherita pizza was the best in San Diego. It was! Absolutely wonderful. We also had shishito peppers. They needed to be cooked a little more and have more salt, but were still good. The olive bowl was average. Not pitted, but served with bread. The pizza was worth it though!
