    Iozzo's is our favorite Italian trattoria. It's a drive for us, but worth it. We try to get there several times a year.

    IG is always sooo good! Great ambiance in this neighborhood gem. The wedding soup is light and wonderful as a starter. Or try the meatball martini.....their meatballs are amazing! Not in the mood for spaghetti & meatballs? Try the short rib ragu with farfalle pasta noodles. Delicious & quite filling....in a good way! I love it!

    Had an excellent lunch. A little too slow paced for me but service overall was excellent. Great Calamari, Fettuccine Alfredo & my friend loved her lasagna.

    We had a great meal at Iozzo’s Garden Table. The veal Marsala I had was the best I have ever tasted! My husband’s beef dish was equally good. Our waitress was attentive and the wine was very good. Everything about the restaurant was terrific, and if I am in Indianapolis again I will be sure to return.
