    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.

    What a wonderful date night my wife and I had here. Our sever Ashley was amazing. She made wonderful recommendations and was extremely attentive. Our meals were perfectly prepared and served hot. We had Alfredo and salmon for entrees and garlic bread and calamari for appetizers. Great wine selection and patio was very romantic. After dinner we headed inside and enjoyed a few espresso martinis that were crafted by Bob. Just like our service outside with Ashley, Bob took great care of us. Cannot forget to mention Darren who stopped by and checked on us to make sure everything was perfect. This will be our new date night location. Thank you for a wonderful evening

    Service was EXCEPTIONAL! Calamari was delicious, as was my husband's fettuccini alfredo. My salmon piccata was a little acid heavy, could have used more butter, but the fish was melt-in-your-mouth amazing. Will go back over and over again!

    Our server was amazing. She was upbeat, knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. The food was delicious. We sat outside. Althing, it was hot there was a nice breeze. The garden area could use a little sprucing up…tables and chairs.
