    It smelled like cigarettes. The food was disgusting, and it was out of the middle of nowhere.

    Had the pleasure of visiting Iozzo's for the first time ever this evening with a close group of 6…read more The ambiance was very warm and welcoming. Jeremy was our server and was top notch with his recommendations and genuine friendliness throughout the evening. The food was nothing short of incredibly delicious! We started off with a new special drink they had with sorbet as well as a strawberry cello martini, and a Jefferson bourbon drink. There was nothing we had that was even close to average. For appetizers, we had the crab cakes, portobello mushrooms, and garlic bread, on top of the complimentary bread and sauce to dip it in. The salads were great as well - caprese, Caesar, spinach, and the Southside salad. The the entrees were the filet, lasagna, fettuccini, Ricotta Gnocchi, and yellow tail fish - all of which were superb! We also had a side of mashed potatoes that were perfect! We then ordered the creme brulee and tiramisu cheesecake for dessert which again, were phenomenal! We will definitely be back again after such a wonderful experience!

    For the best Italian food in Southern Indiana you must visit Iozzo's in Franklin. I usually order…read morethe lasagnas which is 5 star, but today I ordered the Gnocci with filet mignon. Absolutely wonderful. Plus we had excellent service from Elena which made our experience delightful. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed!!!

    Stopped here on a Monday afternoon for lunch and had a wonderful time!…read more Margaritas were full. The flight was a great way to try multiple flavors. I loved the octopus (with sangria). The lunch specials are also great - got a spicy chimichanga. A ton of food for $11! Service was great too. We'll be back!

    The only good thing about this place is the decor and clean bathrooms. The place was almost empty…read moreas we went for a late lunch 1:30.-2 pm and still the service could not have been worse. Our kid was given a printed paper kid menu with activity with no crayons(which almost at the end of the visit we found they had but never bothered to give) . We were served 2 glasses heavily iced water (without checking with us , no water for our kiddo) and then for the longest time no one came by. After a while when the server came, we asked for water with no ice and one kiddie cup which the server didn't look pleased to bring -just dumped unceremoniously minus straws. It's like the staff here don't care or are super lazy. They just sat there chitchatting near the bar area with some drinks in hand and I had to literally stand/wave to get their attention which didn't work either so I walked to the back to ask for the straws. They never bothered to clear the iced water from our table. The server had no recommendations on food and when we asked spice levels on some items she was clueless. The food was bland at best with no flavor. The tacos were just a meh! And at almost $5 for a taco we have had much better for way cheaper at other places.. The side of roasted vegetables with quinoa was a joke - just vegetables with a sprinkle of uncooked quinoa in it!!!?! Nobody came to check with us if we needed anything else once our initial order was delivered. Again had to walk back to the servers to ask for the cheque by which point we were just done with this place! Not sure how this restaurant has a good rating but would never like anyone to have the same experience we had! Would give no stars if that was an option!
