This restaurant was excellent, the service, the food, the atmosphere. The scalloped potatoes are excellent and the rib eye steak outstanding. We went for a nice dinner without the kids and enjoyed every minute. There is a bar, I peeked in however we left after our dinner.

We have passed this restaurant, I don't know how many times. Friends called us up and asked if we wanted to have dinner here. It was a lovely place. The food was good and service was great. My husband is a die-hard carnivore and LOVED his filet mignon. I had a salmon dish ... very, very tasty! We will definitely... More

Always look forward to good food and service! Not the case this evening. We were seated at a very small table near the water station and where orders were placed. We were walk ins, so we were willing to sit at the table. Our waiter gave the specials and my wife and I ordered the rib eye special, and were... More

Took the daughter and her bf there for his birthday. Had a drink in the bar and the bartender knew her stuff and made some good recommendations, nice work Camille. The thing I love is the variety on the menu..not just steaks...also that you can pick any two sides with your main dish. Izzy's potatoes (kind of an au gratin,... More

A steak and chop place that serves up great food like the more pricier places, such as Ruth Chris and Morton's, but with a couple of sides that's included with your entree. Roasted mussels, prime rib and the marinated skirt steak did not disappoint. They make their dessert. Cheese cake that melts in your mouth and warm fruit crisp were... More

Ate here twice during the last weeks and was not disappointed in terms of quality. However, the menu and overall experience is not innovative. Good selection of wine but can do better.

Feeling the need for a good steak? Izzy's is the place to go. I've visited Izzy's in San Carlos several times in the last couple of years, and I've tried most of the items on the menu. I've enjoyed the New York steak, the Filet Mignon, the Prime Rib, and the King Salmon. The New York Pepper Steak is a... More

We went to Izzy's as close to our hotel although the location just off the freeway wasn't that inspiring, Our opinion changed dramatically once we entered the restaurant as it was cozy and obviously a very popular place. The gentleman who greeted us at the door could have written the book on how to be a great host at a... More

I ate here a few years ago and wanted to come back, last night I got the chance. Again the steak (bone in ribeye) was great, I asked the waiter if they had single malt scotch, he replied they had all the major scotches......................No they didn't. They had a few of the obvious ones and a couple of others, but... More

The wine list was good and the food was pretty good. Ask for no salt and avoid their "Izzy potatoes" they are really salty and greasy which slides into your other food. But the salmon was good and the veggies were cooked nicely - not over done.
