Do you mean: Where else in the Scriptures are references to Isaiah 25 made? The best way to find out is to look in your Bible at Isaiah 25 (or any other passage from the Bible) and look at the bottom of the page for the cross-references.

Why do you ask?
 
6 On this mountain the LORD Almighty will prepare
a feast of rich food for all peoples,
a banquet of aged wine—
the best of meats and the finest of wines.

7 On this mountain he will destroy
the shroud that enfolds all peoples,
the sheet that covers all nations;

8 he will swallow up death forever.
The Sovereign LORD will wipe away the tears
from all faces;
he will remove the disgrace of his people
from all the earth.
The LORD has spoken.

9 In that day they will say,
“Surely this is our God;
we trusted in him, and he saved us.
This is the LORD, we trusted in him;
let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.”

this was the part I was looking at and something in the text rings a bell, but I can’t put my fingure on it. I was thinking about the great banquette at the end of time for all us believers.

Revelation 7:17
For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

Revelation 21:4
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
 
I think you are exactly right in making the connection between Isaiah 25 and these verses from Revelation. This section of Isaiah is concerned with the fact that, even though God’s people (at that time the Kingdom of Judah) would suffer deportation and hardship, there would be a remnant that would presevere to see God and his people vindicated.

No doubt, the first hearers (or readers) of Revelation, being under severe persecution themselves, immediately had these verses from Isaiah come to mind.
