We dedicated ourselves for over a year to perfect our simple idea - Italian street food in a comfortable environment. There's nothing complex in the food we make, but that's what makes it so hard to make right. We use traditional techniques exactingly to make sure we get the same product each time, so you can be sure of what you're in for each time you come in and sit down, or place an order. And our guarantee stands, if you don't like what you get, if it isn't up to our standards, there are no questions asked, because we don't want anything but the highest quality product out there. We're proud of what we do every day, and we want you to feel the same! The Izzy's Team
