Agnes and Eduardo Perform at Isola Ristorante in St. Maarten

Listening to live music while dining can either enhance the experience or disrupt it. It all depends on the mood of the guests and the style and volume of music played.

Marco Ferrante, the managing force behind Isola Ristorante in Pelican, has found the magic compromise for sophisticated dinner entertainment by employing the talents of Agnes and Eduardo.

Every Thursday and Monday night, guests enjoy the tempered volume of instruments and vocals; performed with artistic competence, and well worth to sit and listen to, but never so loud as to interrupt a pleasant dinner conversation.

Isola Ristorante offers authentic Italian cuisine and is located right next to the Hollywood Casino in Pelican.
