Our Story, From the Start
Every Meal Is a Moment
At Isabella’s Italian, every meal is a moment, an opportunity to slow down, savor, and connect.
Our story starts long before our doors opened. It’s a journey that started with Chef Todd Golden’s early passion for cooking, from his beginnings in East Lansing, Michigan, to culinary school in Baltimore, and a whirlwind of hands-on experience across Hilton Head, Aspen, and beyond.
Rooted in Passion, Shared with Love
A Legacy Built Around the Table
Chef Todd Golden and his wife Nickki Golden transformed that passion into a lifelong adventure. Their first restaurant, Belvederes, brought an elevated Italian dining experience to Fayetteville in the late 1980s, introducing the community to their dedication to honest flavors and warm hospitality.
Since then, they have become beloved names in Northwest Arkansas, known for creating spaces where friends become family and every meal becomes a memory.
From Spark to Table
Italian Cuisine Crafted With Care
At Isabella’s Italian, that spirit lives on. Our menu is a celebration of Italian cuisine crafted with care, from perfectly cooked pastas and rich, slow-simmered sauces to thoughtfully curated wines.
Every dish is a reflection of Todd’s decades of culinary experience and Nickki’s unwavering commitment to genuine hospitality.
