    The entire experience was positive. I was able to make a reservation for seven people without any issues. A table was set up and ready for us when we arrived. The service was outstanding; the server was well-informed and extremely attentive. No one in our party was disappointed with their meal. The only drawback is that the restaurant is small, so space is limited, and it became loud when the restaurant was full. However, it has a quaint atmosphere and offers all the warmth of a family-owned restaurant.

    Iozzos is one of our favorite restaurants. Many good menu options. I had the short rib ragu and it was excellent! Our party of 6 was seated at a round table and we appreciated that. The tables are all very close together which is OK but probably contributes to the noise level. Service was outstanding!

    The food was outstanding. One order arrived incorrect, the guest with me just took what was delivered to the table. There was some confusion during the ordering process, but the server never checked with us to verify what we wanted was correct.

    There are no wrong choices at Iozzo’s. The food is always excellent and the drinks are top notch. A few of our favorites are Gorgonzola gnocchi with filet, short rib ragu, carbonara, any pasta with tomato cream sauce, crab tortelli, and chocolate budino. We’ve been visiting for years and have never had a negative experience. Go, eat, enjoy and support a local family business with an amazing staff and rich history.
