Can they even see the domain? Assuming you're not using the ISP's DNS of course.

Unless you're using DNS over HTTPS they can see the unencrypted DNS traffic. There's also Encrypted Client Hello, but they can also see which IP you're connecting to.

Most people use the ISP DNS, but even if they don't, the Domain to IP is public information.

There's even a reverse pointer query that can be made to get a domain to IP from a legacy ARPA TLD, although it isn't 100% robust.
