Isla & Co. - Midtown

Visited yesterday for lunch and was pleasantly surprised with how delicious and fresh the meal was. The flavors were very unique and they put an interesting twist on traditional meals. I truly enjoyed my meal and certainly look forward to returning and trying other options.This place is also really nice, great for having a nicer lunch date. Service was standard for a lunch spot. Nothing exceptional but nothing to complain about either.

Great spot for a date, business lunch/dinner or celebration. Interior is super cute and modern. They even have a private room for small group celebration. I've been here for a business dinner a year ago and loved the food, it's very shareable and unique. Decided to come back recently for lunch with my husband and we enjoyed our meal. For lunch we ordered a cortado, Kangaroo Tucker, Fried Fish Sando and Pulled Pork Hash. The pulled pork hash was on the salty side, if it was less salty, it would have tasted much better. They were very generous with the portion. Service was on the slower end but my husband and I didn't mind it.

My friends and I recently tried this cute restaurant the last time we were in the city - and we will certainly be returning! It is located in a hotel, which is always a bit of a red flag for me - but not this time!We had exceptional service with some of the best coffee I've had in awhile. Next, they have a great Australian menu with options for our vegan friends. One friend and I split the mushroom toast and the waffles and both were so so good. Next time, I definitely want to try their espresso martini flight!

My girlfriend had booked reservations for my birthday dinner and I surprised her by proposing. I reached out and the general manager Adam Franklin was very helpful ask well as our waitress Taylor who was able to record the proposal. Isla and Co thank y'all for helping make this an unforgettable moment. The ambiance was great and the service was amazing. The food was great as well. #21525

Went here for the espresso martini flight - I wasn't too crazy about it. One of the drinks was salt forward and it just wasn't for me. I preferred the reg espresso martini on the menu and that was solid. We tried the kangaroo - if you like lamb you may enjoy this- it was too chewy for me. I wasn't a fan. The chicken sandwich is VERY good along with the kung pao cauliflower

Decided to check out Isla & Co. after reading they're the "Home of the Espresso Martini Flight." And with my boyfriend and I being experienced espresso martini drinkers, we had to check it out! They have two locations in NYC, one in Midtown and one in Williamsburg. They bring their Australian culture and vibes through everything I love... food, drinks and shared experiences! We started with the espresso martini flights (predictable I know) and had to get our own which I'm glad we did. In the flight, we tried the Olive Temptation (my favorite), Scarlett Rose and Coco Devine. Olive Temptation has a touch of banana, cream and olive oil which is why it is my favorite. Scarlett Rose is more on the saltier side if you like drinks with salt and Coco Devine is a "desert-y" martini so save that for the end. As we were sipping on our flights, of course I had to try the food what goes better with espressos than a caesar salad and fries? Both were SO good. The fries were perfectly crispy and I loved the crispy parmesan wafer in the salad. My boyfriend ordered the chicken parmesan with a salad and kangaroo skewers. We were both pleasantly enjoying our time here.The service was great as well, our waiter was super attentive and gave great suggestions throughout the night. Isla & Co. is located on the ground floor of Hotel Hendricks so definitely check them out at the bar or grab a table because you'll definitely be here a while enjoying everything their menu has to offer!

Came here with a group of friends for brunch. The service was extremely slow. Now sure if the restaurant was understaffed but it took about 10-15 minutes for a waiter to even come by our table. The food was good especially the brekkie sandwich. What brought this place down was the "outdoor" seating area inside the restaurant. It was so cold and the mini heater they had was not good enough. If you get a chance to sit inside, please do especially in winter. The cold air in the area ruined our dining experience. I had to put a coat on during my meal so it wasn't enjoyable.

What a wonderful experience! Its inside a hotel but wasn't too difficult to find, there's a bar & seating area when first walk in. For drinks I enjoyed the O.G. Australians favorite espresso martini. For the appetizers we tried the crispy calamari, cauliflower and kangaroo (for me & guests, it was too chewy). Then for entrees, the chicken Parma which was a huge portion, fish sando, cheeseburger, lemon broccolini orrechettie, shrimp vodka rigatoni, all were delicious & flavorful. Desserts - I recommend the sticky date pudding! Service was great, so friendly warm and inviting , came around Christmas time, definitely recommend!

Yum! Came here for a work lunch, the staff was super kind and the aesthetic was amazing. We ordered kangaroo skewers as appetizers for the table (all of our first time trying kangaroo). The meat was flavorful and well cooked. I personally wasn't a fan of the tahini underneath, but some of my coworkers liked it. I ordered the power bowl as my meal. So good! Each bite gave different flavors and textures. Definitely recommend trying them out! I would return to try out their drinks

Wow! We didn't expect much when we realized the restaurant was located in the hotel lobby. However, we were pleasantly surprised. The menu was really cute and funny!We sat at the bar and received great recommendations from the bartender. To start, we shared the espresso martini flight, which allowed us to taste various bases - whiskey, tequila, and rum. If you love espresso martinis, this is a must-try!Next, we shared the kung pao fried cauliflower, which was executed perfectly. The cauliflower was crunchy and not overpowered by the sauce.For our main courses, I had the fish sandwich and my partner had the OG burger. Both came with fries and the portions were generous. Plus, they tasted just as delicious the next day!We're looking forward to returning for brunch next time!
