Isla & Co.

On Grand Street, this space runs from a daytime cafe to an evening restaurant and bar. The menu shifts from brunch classics like avocado toast to dinner plates and craft cocktails. While the kangaroo skewers taste similar to lean beef, it is often the caramelized Brussels sprouts—sweet, salty, and carrying a kick of spice—and the wings that steal the table's attention. Drinks center around a popular happy hour and espresso martini flights, served by a staff noted for their welcoming, if occasionally stretched, hospitality.
