Delicious Reuben and pickles. Terrible and rude service from Fred upon entering the restaurant. I nearly left because of him. Wow, it was so bad.

Service was pretty good. Went to wash my hands and almost bumped into one of the workers. Didnt want to move to the side.Had to squeeze by him to get out of bathroom. Anyway. Food was OK. Not much taste. Even my goto potato cake was just OK. Kinda slow for lunchtime.

This was our second time at Izzy's. Portions are really good and the menu has something for everyone. They bring you a small bowl of pickles to start, which thrilled my husband. We then shared a corned beef Reuben and the pastrami Reuben. Both came with a huge potato pancake. Easily as big as your hand. Everything is very good. Meat is tasty and the dressing has a good flavor. Staff is great. They will always give suggestions when asked. Tomato basil soup was ok. Almost tasted like a marinara sauce. Definitely fun to try a lot of different options.

I ordered a quart of chicken soup and it was horrible. I ordered the chicken noodle soup and it was so inedible. it was so salty. I couldn't even stomach it! I also ordered the corn beef pastrami sandwich with Swiss and it was cold and fatty. I've also been to the Izzy's on red Bank and it was equally bad. Apparently the soup is catered from their catering area and so they said when I called to complain that it was the catering company's fault. I'm so unhappy I will never return. I do not recommend!!!
