My wife and I have visited this restaurant several times for both drinks and dinner, and each experience has been nothing short of fantastic. The staff is notably attentive, ensuring that we are well taken care of during our visits.

It’s been such a treat being introduced to Isla & friends. I will never forget memories made here! From cocktails that were tailor-made (ask for the Veradura if you appreciate dark liquor balanced with citrus & warm nutmeg) to off menu entrees like the surf and turf pictured here.. SO on palette! Oh, and of course don’t forget to dance in between sips with the ever-wonderful band giving all the sabor you could ask for!

Beautiful interior and ambiance, attentive service and water globes were always filled. The food was delicious. We ordered the Morongo with garlic shrimp- beautiful presentation- and the marista de puerco. Ordered rice pudding to go, I was told it was delicious! Several tables were filled almost as soon as they opened- we came shortly after it opened at 11:30am. Saw many people enjoying their meals. Would definitely go back again to try other entrees.

First time coming here and it won’t be the last. The food was beyond good and the cocktails were awesome. We came at night and it was a little dark but the live music was a plus. Definitely recommend coming here

Easy to find location. Parking is ample and within eye distance to location. Food was amazingly delicious…from Appetizers to main course and the drinks…way too many list – strong and favorable. The only thing that bothered me was the wait,.. granted, the music was fine the people were courteous and the location was splendid… just waiting for 1 hr to be seated, 30 to 45 min for a drink and Appetizers… I felt was excessive. Make a reservation if possible and be prepared to wait.

We just wrapped an amazing experience at Isla. The staff were very accommodating for our last minute visit and provided us with a high chair for our little one. From start to finish every we tried was amazing and they definitely lived up to the stellar reviews. Highly recommend to anyone in the mood for great Caribbean cuisine and great service. The oxtails were amazing and my wife loved the garlic salmon. Candela was our favorite drink we tried from the menu with Mazatlán being a close second. Despite this place being almost an hour away from home we will definitely be making the drive back to return.

Cute little Cuban place. The food was delicious the drinks a little pricey but good. The staff was very friendly and it passed the vibe check. They played great music, made you forget you were still in Cali. It was a little dark for me but they do offer patio seating. We only had an hour and half to eat and drink, so reason for one star less, felt a little rushed to finish our birthday celebration.

Checked out their website and wanted to give this place a try. We ordered the croquettes and chicken as appetizers, their famous oxtail stew as entree, and flan as dessert. The oxtails were to die for. Tender and juicy. Chicken was a little dry though. Our server Ethan was attentive and friendly. Bravo Ethan!
