    Our party of 6 loved the Rathskeller. The complementary pretzels with hot mustard was fabulous. Loved the hot mustard! We also got the sausage appetizer. It was also excellent! I never thought I liked sauerkraut, but the sauerkraut was even good! We all got a different dishes and everybody was really happy with their dinners.  Great service, great food. A wonderful experience! We’ll be back!

    The cocktails were all prepared really well, the relish tray was the perfect amount for the 5 of us, and our brunch dishes (3 Benedicts, a brisket hash, and the omlette) were all delicious. Catherine took care of us and shifted her position when she noticed that my dad couldn't hear her. That's a level of attention that many don't have (people, let alone busy servers)!

    The food was very good & "clean" tasting. Authentic Italian. From the greens to the lasagna bolognese and the tiramisu cheesecake, everything was splendid! Despite the location being in downtown Indy, there was ample free parking available. Parking is always a concern & determining factor I consider when deciding if I want to dine downtown. The ambiance and decor were beautiful. My co-worker & I had chosen Iozzo to celebrate his achievement of being accepted into law school.🥂🍾 Everything about Iozzo made our evening enjoyable! This was our first experience at Iozzo, but it will not be our last.💙

    The Sea Bass was a very large portion size. It was absolutely delicious. The truffle Parmesan fries were delicious as well. They split the wedge salad up for us. We had a delightful time. Excellent food, service, and atmosphere.
