Iozzo's Garden Of Italy

Iozzo's was a great find for lunch while I was in Indy. Great and knowledgeable staff and amazing food. The bread bites were a great appetizer and the Italian wedding soup was fantastic. Finally the Rigatoni alla Vodka had one of the best pasta sauces I've had in an Italian restaurant. I look forward to going back for dinner to try their crab tortelli.

OMGoodness! This little spot is definitely a hidden gem in Indianapolis. (Nevermind the Tik Tok reviews 🙄) As we entered this quaint little place the atmosphere was definitely a vibe as we were greeted to a small but nostalgic dining room with giant photos on the walls of The Familly. (Iozzo) Which seemed to include everything from mobsters to chefs. Oh before I get too far, let me apologize for not having more photos. It’s so small and intimate I didn’t want to encroach on the privacy of the customers as it was, and normally is, a fully seated venue. We called ten minutes before arriving and was able to get a “Table top” which is considered the bar/lounge area. After being seated we decided to just move to the bar cause we felt so cramped and in the way. Turns out we met the most charismatic bartender ever, named “Phil”. Shout out to “Phil” who made our experience even more fabulous as the night advanced. He definitely knew his wines and even offered suggestions as to which wines would go with their classic and recommended entrees. We started with the Basil cheese garlic bread which just melted in your mouth as all the flavors complemented each other and the pomodoro sauce was icing on the cake, so to speak! Then the market salad, which was a unique blend of fanciful flavors that danced across the palette. The Lasagna Bolognese had an interesting flavor that I couldn’t quite pin point, but I’m imagining that the 5 cheeses blend had something to do with the extravagant flavor of this popular dish. And the classical Chicken Parm was on point as well. All in all, this was a semi magical experience that you’re not gonna expect from a place this small and tucked away in the middle of a city construction project. Iozzo’s is a MUST for your favorite Italian cuisine! Cómo siempre, “Salud y Aprovecho!” 🥂

Ate here for dinner before the Indy Marathon. We didn't think to make reservations but they were able to sit us quickly. We were sat outside in their patio area and it was very quaint and well mantained. The food was divine. It did take awhile to come, but our server was very attentive and they were quite overwhelmed with other marathon runners. My husband got the Eggplant Parmesan and I got the piccata with Scallops. I want to lick my plate at the end it was so good.

My husband and I ate at Iozzo's for our 12th anniversary last weekend. It was a Saturday night, so it was busy but our server was friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and came out quickly. Drinks were also very good and I was impressed with how quickly my Lemoncello martini came out. My drink was out before my husband had even decided what drink he wanted to order. We started with the cheese bread, which was phenomenal. My husband had the Rigatoni vodka, which he loved. He was a big fan of the house made sausage. I tried it and also enjoyed it. I had the lasagna. It was incredibly cheesy, just the way I like it. I upgraded to the Gem salad, which was a really good version of a wedge salad. If you love blue cheese/gorgonzola, this salad will hit the spot. We definitely plan to return!

Visited this place with my work group. The place is not easy to find for out of town folks. Since we were dining on a week night, we had no trouble finding parking there. The place has a warm and cozy ambience to it. We were seated in a ping table and the server gave us full overview of the menu and great recommendations. The service was quick. Food was good too. The portion size was bigger than we expected and couldn’t finish our entrees. We ordered Burrata, calamari and garlic bread as our appetizers. Lamb chops, salmon Mediterranean, chicken parmigiana, eggplant parmigiana, spaghetti were the main courses we ordered alongside scorers salad, soup of the day and mixed green and caesar salad. We ordered Italian margarita and Venetian breeze. Both were great. The bathroom was clean and well maintained. Given a chance I would recommend to visit this gem at-least once.

Incredible food and beautiful, relaxing atmosphere! Celebrated my 3 year anniversary with my husband and we always try to find a new place to splurge as we don't go to fancy restaurants other than special occasions. Not only was the service great, but the food was amazing. I had the BEST shrimp scampi I've ever eaten and the basil garlic bread was everything this pregnant lady needed. You will spend at least $32+ per person, but the food is worth it! Great for special occasions

Authentic Italian drinks. Ever heard of an Italian Margarita? Amaretto, orange juice and other ingredients make for a smooth drink. Appetizers, (delicious cubes of fresh, warm bread and fresh tomato dipping sauce started the evening. Great selection of appetizers, main course meals, and desserts. Who says real men don't eat chocolate? We all tried different menu items. I had the lemon chicken Piscataway. My hubby had a steaming dish of lasagna with meatballs. The last bite was still hot! One dish was ribs. All come with pasta and soup or salad.
