Absolutely blown away by Cafe IZZI. The food was flawless from start to finish -- easily one of the best sandwiches I've had in LA. Everything tasted fresh, packed with flavour, and you can tell they put real care into what they do. The service was just as impressive; everyone was friendly, welcoming, and made the whole experience enjoyable. And to top it all off, the ice creams hit the spot perfectly. Rare to find a place that nails both the food and the hospitality. Can't wait to come back! read more

Wow! Went today with my wife. Split the Italian & Pastrami Slaw. Both great. The Pastrami Slaw is not only the best pastrami sandwich you'll ever try, but it's probably the best sandwich ever! You won't be disappointed. The staff is incredibly nice. What a gem. I live about 35-40 minutes from here, but will be back as much as I can. We both loved it. read more

Great service, super friendly Delicious veggie sandwich and gelato Place is super clean and you can sit outside or inside We always enjoy sitting outside :) read more

Saw Cafe Izzi all over TikTok for having one of the best pastramis around my area, so naturally I had to see if the hype was real. We ordered the hot pastrami star and wow... every bite was packed with flavor. The pastrami was incredible, layered in bread that was crispy on the outside but still soft inside. We also tried the mortadella sandwich Persian style and you can really taste the quality of their cold cuts. The fresh herbs tied everything together so well. I also tried their brown sugar latte. Flavor was good but I personally like my coffee stronger and this one tasted a little watered down for me. The food was great, the cafe itself is super cute and cozy, but what really made this a 5-star experience was the hospitality. Everyone was so warm and welcoming, and they even boxed up our leftovers for us. Definitely bringing my kid next time so we can try their gelato. read more

Spotted this cafe on my way to the freeway entrance and stopped by to check it out. It's a cute little cafe with both indoor and outdoor seating. They serve mortadella and pastrami sandwiches which looked amazing. I have to come back and try one. I ordered a cold brew coffee which tasted great. I took it black with no milk or sweetener, the taste was amazing. They also make gelato on site so I gotta try that as well. Will update my review once I come back. Customer service was friendly and welcoming. read more

I got their pastrami sandwich. It was really good. Not too salty. With the toppings added, the flavor of pastrami came through and complimented each other. They are using tasty bread. Also, I have got to mention this. The person making sandwiches meticulous he looked like he was working on a piece of art. I definitely would recommend this place and I want to try all of their sandwiches. read more

I was patiently awaiting their opening since I live in the neighborhood. Finally had a chance to stop by this past week for the first time. This place definitely did not disappoint. The shop is very cute and cozy, and the menu is pretty simple. We came here to try the pastrami sandwich and the Persian mortadella sandwich. The staff were super nice, and we had our food in less than 10 minutes. I've had my share of mortadella sandwiches in my life, and this version was one of the best I've had! This will become a regular in my rotation. Also, the pastrami sandwich was delicious, it melts in your mouth. There are a lot of places serving pastrami nowadays, and these guys are one of the top contenders. I'm glad this is very local to me, and I can stop by anytime I want. read more

We tried the spicy pastrami and the regular pastrami sandwiches. Both were delicious! The bread was fresh had a crisp bite but was also soft! Just like the bread you find in Louisiana in shrimp po boy sandwiches. The sandwiches were stuffed! Refreshing now a days, when other restaurants reduce quantity. Two people can easily share one. Not too many sides but you don't really need it. Just get a crisp coke! read more

Cafe Izzi has the best hot pastrami sandwich I've ever had, without a doubt . I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, and whenever I'm in Los Angeles, I make it a point to come here just for this sandwich. The pastrami is incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the bread is always perfectly toasted. Every bite is absolutely delicious. I've tried pastrami sandwiches at many places over the years, but nothing compares to Cafe Izzi. The quality, taste, and consistency are unmatched. If you're a pastrami lover, this place is a must visit. Carmen and Armen are awesome and super nice too. read more

Cafe Izzi is the new gem in Atwater. First, the woman who took our order was fantastic, super friendly and very knowledgable of the food. She could have been one of the owners, not sure, but she was great. We had two sandwiches, the Pastrami with everything (I don't remember the name, but it was the one with peppers), and the Caprisi. I'm usually not a huge Caprisi fan, but boy was this insanely good. Believe the hype about the Pastrami, it's THAT good. The ambiance was really sweet, kinda reminds me of a French Bistro. Very clean, and inviting. After our meal, she gave us a tasting of their house-made Gelato. I haven't had any that good since I was in Florence. It was so smooth and full of flavor. I recommend this little spot to anyone who wants a delicious sammy, they're just that good. read more

What a delicious sandwich they make ! It was spot on and exactly what I was craving. Bread was fresh and crunchy. Good balance of flavors. Highly recommend it! I ordered the mortadella and a hazelnut gelato. Was so good! Gonna have to go back for sure and try the other sandwiches in the menu. The owner lady and the staff are all very nice. Great place ! read more

Had lunch at Cafe IZZI today and WOW, this place is officially my new favorite spot. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was inviting, clean, and beautifully put together. The service was top-tier, friendly, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful without being overbearing. Now the food was delicious, every bite! The pastrami was melt-in-your-mouth perfection, so flavorful and perfectly done. The Persian mortadella sandwich was just as impressive; every bite was packed with delicious, high-quality cold cuts, super generous portions, and incredibly satisfying. The bread was fresh, the veggies were crisp and vibrant, you can taste the quality in everything. And the iced latte? Easily one of the best I've had...smooth, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. If you're looking for incredible sandwiches, great coffee, and genuinely excellent service, this is the spot. Already planning my next visit. read more

Went here for the first time a few weeks ago and have been dreaming of this sandwich all week. Pastrami star, you are truly the star that lights up my life. The pastrami is thick, juicy, and tender, complemented beautifully by the peppers, mustard, avocado, and cheese. They also make their gelato in-house, rotating various flavors. We caught them today with a saffron/pistachio gelato which was so good and super creamy. Cafe Izzi is such a gem. I hope they stick around for a very long time. read more

Wow!! What an amazing meal that I had. I got it delivered and everything was perfect. I appreciate how they sealed the bag. This was the most delicious flavorful pastrami I've ever had! The portion was big for me so I'll have the other half of the sandwich for dinner. I have to point out that the potato salad was the best I've ever had, it was so creamy and flavorful. The potatoes were perfectly cooked. I'm already wanting more. Next time I order it will be a hard decision between ordering another pastrami sandwich or try the Italian ( the Italian sounds delicious). I'll definitely will be ordering again! read more

This just opened in my neighborhood. So far I've only had the pastrami sandwich, but it was excellent and also their café selection is very good. I can literally walk there from my house so it's very convenient. read more

This place is going to be packed with people soon, mark my words. I've tried lots of sandwiches in LA, more specifically the Italian style but what do I know about Italian sandwiches??? Nothing at all... what I do know is great bread, portions and quality. This place has all 3, the bread is super horny, thin soft on top and a little thicker bottom. I hate when I bite a sandwich and the bread fights back.. this bread melts in ur mouth. I got the pastrami and it comes with this aioli and jalapeños smfh, with potato salad . Literally felt so good after eating I had to show some love. read more

Really nice and clean spot, great service. Sandwich was SO delicious--the pesto sauce was fresh and fragrant. We shared some gelato afterward. It was difficult to decide because some of the flavors i guess had sold out, so be sure to have alternative choices! Very creamy texture (We tried Baklava) There is seating indoors and out. read more

Pastrami sandwich was very good. I think next time I'll add chopped yellow peppers or a horseradish if they have it but that's just my preference. I'm excited to come back and try the cold cuts! The bread was perfect. You can tell they bake it in house fresh. A bit on the pricey side but I'd say it's worth it. The sandwiches are big enough to split with a pal. read more
