Ice, Ice, Isobar.The Favourite Husband was left at home. Let that be a lesson to all naughty husbands everywhere. So, a girls weekend, in Ragadise. Having been to Raggers multiple times, Isobar remained one of only two restaurants not yet explored.We booked online and chose the lounge for our table. On arrival we were actually seated in the back. By the door to the outdoor area. During a storm. Fun times. To be fair, it didn’t really matter as it was entertaining to watch the outside fire rage out of control warming nobody in particular due to the aforementioned storm.We started with cocktails. A French Martini, a Tropical Surf and a virgin Pina Colada. These were delightful but not life changing. I had previously had the best Bloody Mary of my life, ever, in the world, here; maybe I should have had another of those. I highly recommend them.Three mains were ordered and we were impressed with what was served. The tuna steak was exceptionally good. Perfectly seared, beautifully presented and generous. The mushroom and ricotta ravioli small plate came as a main which again was a good sized portion. It was lacking a sauce and a little oily, but the flavours were there. Our other dish was the special; spaghetti bolognaise and truffle and Parmesan. The flavour was nice, the meat was a bit lumpy, the truffle was a kind of cream sauce which seemed unnecessary. But it was ok.The additional gin and tonic tasted strange, like soda water instead of tonic but we were assured it was tonic.The staff were all super friendly. Love the wood burner in the front restaurant.It was a nice vibe. It was busy, and vibrant and cosy on a wet and windy night. Will absolutely be coming back. And if he behaves, I may even bring the Favourite Husband next time.

What a wonderful restaurant! This was our first time in Raglan. We are actually a bit spoilt when it comes to food and before we go for mediocre food, we cook very well ourselves. We were there with two children for dinner (6 years and 15 years). And then went for dinner every night for the rest of the days. We and the children were really thrilled. Every dish was good. We especially liked the tartare. The hummus was also ordered every evening. There was almost a fight over the chicken children's dish. If you order the burger, don't have the starter. The burger is very good, but also really big.

We had a delicious dinner at ISO last night. The pork belly special starter was top class and between us we had the steak, lamb and chicken as mains all of which were excellent. On a chilly night it was great to have the stove burning to create a warm and relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Chocolate mousse was devine as was the market fish. Lovely staff and quick service. Only feedback to give is sanitary bins needed in the ladies toilets but not going to mark down.

I was craving a salad and after looking at menus from restaurants in the area, I picked Iso Bistro to try their Green Vege Salad.It came with lettuce, avocado, couscous and a vegan mayo dressing. It was delicious and completely satisfied my craving. The mayo has a citrus note to it, which provides the acidity needed for the avocado. The couscous was cooked perfectly. I have no complaints.I always like to end on a sweet note and the lemon tart was calling my name. It was divine! The crust was buttery, the curd was silky, and the lemon packed a punch. It took some willpower to stop myself devouring it, but I also wanted to savor every bite.The atmosphere has a date night vibe, but you can still wear casual clothes and it would be fine. Service was friendly and I never had to ask for my water to be refilled. I do suggest making a booking. I was a walk-in requesting a table for one and luckily the lounge area had a small table enough to fit one plate and two glasses.
