Isabella's Mochi Donut Boutique

Call ahead for reservations if you can as this place fills up quickly. Pros: great mochi pancakes, karage, and mochi donuts, lovely owner and relaxed atmosphere. Cons: food took more than 50 min to arrive after ordering. We didn’t mind as we weren’t in a rush! Also worth the wait :) but if you r coming dor lunch and on the clock, it might be different. Overall: great food, close to the beaches, lovely feel to the place, would come back for more mochi donuts!!!

Amazing place for snacks and donuts, their curry bun is one of my favourite food items in the city. Before the pandemic, when they were a full service restaurant, they were my #1 ranked brunch spot. Unfortunately just the donuts and snacks now, but still great and well worth the 5 stars!

I have never tried mochi donuts before coming across this place. Fell in love and started buying boxes every other week to share and try different flavours with friends. Black sesame is great! wish it would come around more often! Ones with a filling i like the best overall (churro flavour was just that, churros!), savoury flavours are fun options too. Always fresh, chewy, not extremely sweet, always exciting weekly flavour options. A must try!

First the bad - came in with the husband on a stormy Sunday afternoon for brunch. Table of 3 and then table of 6 who came after us got served first. After an hour of waiting we finally asked about our food.Now the good - owner was very honest and told us that they had misplaced our order and hence the delay. They also went the extra mile and comped our meal which was very nice of them.Now the extra good - food is really good so we will be back. Thank you for the bad experience turned good. Lots of other businesses could take a page out of your playbook.

Just went for brunch today. Smaller and quaint sized resto. We were 8ppl total, lucked out and managed to get seated right away. There were too many things we wanted so it took us a while to get settled and ordered. Our table ordered: mochi pancakes with karaage, matcha pancakes, karaage sandwich, onigiri wafu set, korokke, 2 types of tea and a Vietnamese style iced coffee.EVERYTHING WAS AWESOME!!!Staff were friendly, attentive and accommodating. We had a 6 year old with us and they're great with kids. There is a window full of activities the kids can take to the table.Coffee was delicious and strong. Our friends helped themselves to several cups. The iced Vietnamese coffee was also great tasting, not too bitter and not overly sweet. Tea was served in different super cute teapots and cups.All our food was delicious. Mochi pancakes were different than what you're used to. Texture is nice and chewy and they're very thick. They don't sit heavy in your belly either. Matcha pancakes had a great light matcha flavour. They weren't overly sweet and just right. Karaage is my fave served with their mayo and dipping sauce (will be back for more). Onigiri was a little too thick and too big for me but I still enjoyed the taste. We all ordered lunch to take home as well as items from their baked goods section . We should have ordered more as we were all craving it later.Prices are about $15 per brunch plate and $8 for the kids.This is a great east east end spot that I hope sticks around for a long time. We will be back to eat from their lunch menu.

I Highly Recommend!!!Isabella's Boutique Restaurant lived up to the hype. It is my daughter's birthday so we thought it would be great to try Isabella's for brunch as it was voted one of the top 10 brunches in the city.From the beginning we weren't disappointed. The interior is quite nice with Japanese adornments such as lanterns and origami.We ordered the following:- Karaage chicken sandwich- Chocolate banana mochi mochi pancakes- 2 rolled Tamagoyaki omellettes (1 avocado and 1 bacon)- 1 coffee- 1 pot of hot chocolate (easily served 3 but probably could serve 4)The Karaage was huge! The chicken was juicy and delicious. It was a little difficult to eat as a sandwich but, it was absolutely deliciousMy daughter loved her pancakes. I tried a bite and they were very well prepared! The chocolate sauce was very nice and not Nutella or cheaply made in any way.The omellettes were phenomenal! The egg was firm enough without being browned on the outside. The filling was plentiful enough to please and I was very happy not to have to bite into crunchy underdone onions. They were melt in your mouth. The salad that accompanies the dish was very fresh and a Japanese delight. I just love the dressing. Also on the side was a roll that was warm and fresh with a beautiful texture, butter and a jam that was fruity and not overwhelmed by sugar.The coffee was quite good and the hot chocolate was high quality. Think of it as liquid chocolate! You can't say that about a powdered mix. It was a little potent for our tastes but, we added a little cream and it was on point!The presentation was so amazing! A silver tray accommodated dishes that transported us to Japan.The service? Done with a smile. Very friendly and attentive.The owners put a great deal of time and care into EVERYTHING they do here. It shows.We will be back very soon!!!

Super chewy and tasty. Very cute designs which are super colourful. Not too sweet.

I was walking by on Queen St and was curious to try one of their Mochi Donut! This matcha flavored one was waiting for me and did not disappoint. Insider tip: stop by early in the day to get the most variety and freshest products!

Their donuts are to die for!My picky boys are obsessed with them. Always fresh. It’s always worth our 3 hours drive just to satify cravings.One must understand the difference between mochi donuts to the regular donuts. And this is the best of it’s kind.

I had been wanting to come here for what seems like forever and I’m glad I did! The Mochi donuts are soft but dense and not sickeningly sweet. They have interesting unique flavours that rotate each week.I got a few such as ube, red velvet, chocolate banana, funfetti and a fruity raspberry lemon flavour. They were all quite good. They make a great snack due to how dense they are as I find they are more filling than a usual donut.The staff was also incredibly friendly, answered all my questions and signed me up to collect points.Definitely would recommend coming to try some!
