Guests stopping by the new Italian Food Company in Islamorada enjoyed delectable cocktails and menu items as part of a special preview on July 15. Owners Tony and Isis Wright welcomed locals to a new Italian restaurant that, on the inside, comes to life with scenes from Italy. With plenty of pasta and other Italian dishes came wine and some dancing. The new restaurant, located at the former Bentley’s restaurant, offers indoor dining, two unique sitdown bars and an expanded menu. Isis said they’re planning to keep the core menu from their Key Largo location inside their new restaurant, but they want to add some seafood dishes. Isis Wright said the new restaurant will open Tuesday, July 26
