    IM THEY FAVORITE GRANDSON THEY SERVEVME THE BEST PANCAKE SANDWICH  DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS HIT THE SNOOZE ALARM :)
    Tyler W.

    This place is very awesome. This place is a hole in the wall. I like going to this place. The people that work here treat me like I am family. They serve my food right just like I like it and they keep delivering me. Good food with great taste you have to go to this place. Try some of their food And indulge in the good flavors and seasonings of food they have you cannot leave New Bedford without stopping here for some good food.

    Breakfast burrito with catchupa and linguica with of home fries. My go to whenever I come here. Never EVER disappointed.

    You ever go to a breakfast place and think "it's the same absolutely everywhere I NEED something different" this is the place to go trust me. Absolute authentic Cape Verdean food by the owner herself? I had the opportunity to meet with the owner while dining here and the knowledge she had about her own culture in her food was astonishing. You can tell how passionate she is about this business. In an already competitive field she's putting her own spin on breakfast and brunch. Not to mention the prices are so affordable that when you finish eating these well portioned dishes you feel complete even with the extra money in your pocket. The owner also runs a food truck on Wednesday to further promote her business. How many people do you know nowadays actively work every day to put their name out there while also having the skills to back it up? Check this place out. Won't regret it.

    Food was cooked to perfection! Best pancake I've had!! Service was great! Was surprised me and my friend were the only ones there, but there was a lot of To-Go orders at least. So I thought I'd write a review to get more attention on this place hopefully! I wish this place was in Ohio!! I would recommend and definitely come back if I find myself in Massachusetts again!!

    Really great service, it's a family owned place and you can tell they take pride in their cooking. We went for breakfast and I had the cachupa rafugado. Super tasty! Would definitely go back and try more things.

    Breakfast sandwich on pancake bread to go.

    Izzy is a goddess of food! I've lived in New Beddy for over 10 years and for whatever reason never walked into Izzy's. Needless to say, I intend to make up for lost time. Her menu is Cape Verde focused (I had to ask what a few menu items were b/c I'm uncultured). Somehow even the standard pancake is the most fluffy heavenly experience ever created. Her main course is breakfast, but there are lots of lunch items too. No matter the dish, you will be stuffed and may not even finish your food. Besides trying everything, may I recommend any dish with Cachupa and/or swapping the bread in your breakfast sandwich out for pancake bread. My next dish will for certain be the Cachupa Burrito. Eat in or take out. I don't mind waiting the 10 min for the take-out. The staff is welcoming and happy to make you feel at home. I will likely call ahead next order, so I can grab and go, per recommendation of the staff. I saw they do coffee to go if you need to top off the tank. Shout out to New Bedford Food Tour for introducing me in to Izzy's. My next date will be here and I will bring all my family who come to visit the area so I can blow their minds with local food. I'm so happy to find my new favorite NB eatery, a truly unique menu made by an incredible chef. Izzy, I think I love you.

    Catchupa special soup. Amazing.

    Fantastic food. Very tasty and well seasoned. The staff really made the experience for me though. They were very friendly, answered my questions and made suggestions. I left very full and happy and I'll be back for this authentic cuisine next time I'm in the area.

    The food is deliciously fresh, especially the Cape Verdean food. Some days you just have to have Cape Verdean food so you go to Izzys.

    Love this place so much that we are here multiple times a week.... Food is delicious! Staff is even…read morebetter!! But I have to ask.... Where did the Christmas music go? We were here last night and it was very joyful and merry ... the Xmas atmosphere we wait all year for. Unfortunately things seem to be back to the Italian music playlist on repeat. Let's get that Christmas spirit back!

    A real mixed bag of stuff here at Riccardi's two Sundays ago for lunch…read more We rumbled in about an hour after they opened and overall, the restaurant was wide open in terms of seating. No issues with being seated or with having our drink order taken or house bread being offered right away. Just to skip more or less to the crux of the issue, it was about the details. Baked Penne with Meatballs Cheese Filled Ravioli Baked Lasagna The lasagna was as advertised and there was no real issue there. Good sized portion and the person who ordered that was very satisfied. The ravioli was presented in what I'll call a sauce rationed format. Small-ish swirl of sauce on the middle of the dish while everything not in the middle (give or take 65% of the portion) was raw dog dry. But mercifully, extra sauce was available, just in an odd format. Enter the penne. The penne itself were overcooked and the cheese on top was well beyond baked. More like a hardened helmet. The meatballs were served on a separate plate, and they came to the table, at best lukewarm but were swimming in a Buzzard's Bay of sauce that was dripping over the side of the plate on to the table. At the end of the day, the service was good and the food was sent out fairly fast. But with that said, one thing was more or less cold while its accompaniment was overcooked and another item was basically dry. If there is a next time, maybe we just skip entrees and go with the takeout pizza. That side of the restaurant had a steady flow of people coming in and out and seemed to be where the action was at. Note to file for the future.
