The overall brunch was okay. The best was the paella and with the eggs was an added treat. The mushroom omelette was good but the breakfast wrap was barely average. The classic Benedict was a disappointment. Cocktails were okay and fairly priced. Ali, our server , was good and felt sorry for his condition. It may have been best to encourage him to rest up. We have eaten here numerous times and will continue to recommend Isabella’s.

Our group of 10 stopped in for Sunday brunch before a show at the nearby Weinberg Center. Even though the restaurant was busy, our reserved table was ready, and we were seated in a quieter side room that worked perfectly for us.

The décor is colorful and warm, with Spanish-inspired art.
On this brisk cold afternoon there was also a cozy brick fireplace in full working mode located in the back of the main dining area that adds to the charm.

Our server was excellent—friendly, organized, and very mindful of our need to finish in time for the show. She handled separate checks, kept drinks filled, and made sure everything ran smoothly.

The food was the highlight. We ordered full brunch meals, and everyone enjoyed their dishes. The house-made chorizo, flavorful sauces, and Eggs Benedict (with the option of a fresh biscuit instead of an English muffin) were especially good.

Overall, we had a great experience. The menu is large, the atmosphere is inviting, and we’d happily return the next time we’re in Frederick.

I’ve been coming to Isabella’s Tapas Bar for over 10 years, and it remains one of my absolute favorite spots in town. Whether it’s happy hour, brunch, or an evening cocktail and dinner, Isabella’s never disappoints. Their menu is full of creativity and flavor — I’ve tried nearly everything over the years, and I keep coming back because every dish feels unique and thoughtfully prepared.

The service is consistently phenomenal. The staff are quick, patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to interact with. The atmosphere is cozy, dark, and a little flirty — with rich colors, leather booths, warm wood accents, and bold glassware. My favorite spot has always been near the fireplace; it adds the perfect touch of comfort and charm.

As for the food, everything is designed tapas-style — smaller plates made to share, so you can experience a variety of flavors. On our last visit, we ordered the chicken skewers with apricot sauce, the manchego frito (fried manchego layered with fig jam, a thin slice of pear, and a crisp piece of baguette), and the cocoa-dusted filet — cooked perfectly medium and bursting with subtle, rich flavor.
To pair with our meal, we enjoyed bubbly, elderflower cocktails, and a seasonal margarita — all beautifully crafted and balanced.

Isabella’s offers a dining experience that’s warm, inviting, and endlessly satisfying. With such a diverse and delicious menu, one visit simply isn’t enough — you’ll find yourself coming back again and again.

Amazing authentic Spanish dishes. Everything we tried was delicious. The crab croquetas & Taza de Crema de Chocolate were both standout dishes!

Isabella’s Taverna & Tapas Bar is a fantastic dining experience for those regulars of Frederick, Maryland and all those passing through. Straight up: if you have a chance to eat here, please do.

After being sat down by the hostess, our waitress Pepper (amazing all around) brought over some drinks and gave us a minute to order. We ended up getting:

– Queso al Horno
baked brie / toasted bread / almonds / port wine reduction / orange

– Papas Bravas
fried potatoes / bravas sauce / garlic aioli

– Empanadas
ground beef / potato / cilantro / chili aioli / manchego cheese / pickled onions

– Chorizo
house-made Spanish sausage / mashed potatoes

– Taza de Crema de Chocolate
chocolate pot de creme / Spanish hot chocolate / fresh strawberries

Everything was outstanding and came out pretty soon after we ordered. The homemade chorizo was so good, and I have to say that the taza de crema was one of the BEST desserts I’ve ever had. Definitely plan on getting one of your own.

Overall, we had a fantastic experience here at Isabella’s! Can’t wait to visit again!

Very tasty food with good presentation. Service was really nice and courteous. Paella tasted pretty good, not truly authentic, but a good start.

Was visiting downtown historic Frederick walking on market Street around dinner time and came across this place. It looked inviting and authentic so gave it a try without a reservation we were seated immediately and the place was packed on a Friday night.
Menu reminded me of tapas bars in Barcelona so tried a few items and a some good wine. The dishes came out quick and they were all excellent. The service was outstanding and the prices reasonable. It is indeed authentic tapas!

It was amazing! Good food and I’ve got no complaints except for one. There WAS a bug I my drink, but that’s completely not their fault. They made sure to give me another. Oh, and we got a bit confused on the menu since it doesn’t say the appetizers are appetizers.

We came here for an early dinner on a Sunday evening so it was not too crowded. Delicious food and speedy, friendly service. Can be a bit noisy but not too much for maintaining conversation. We especially enjoyed the strip steak, fried asparagus and cinnamon brownie but everything was delicious!

A perfect spot for tapas!! If you want to try a bunch of things and share with others, it’s a great option.

The fried asparagus, prosciutto e melone and sangria stood out the most!

Interior is a little vintage-ish which is cute and the servers are attentive and friendly!!

The only drawback is that we don’t live close enough to visit every week :s
