Iozzo's Garden Of Italy

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.

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!” 🥂

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.

Great place for Italian food in Indy. I had a Caesar salad and a rigatoni with sausage. Both were incredibly good. The drinks were also well made.

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!
