Has the best reuben of my life (thus far)!! Nothing fancy about this joint – very laid back and casual. Staff was friendly and I could tell that they have a lot of regulars that come in for lunch. I ordered a reuben and fell in LOVE! Not greasy, not soggy, lots of awesome corned beef and sauerkraut, and the bread was super fresh. Izzys is on our list of places to eat when we are in Cincy. Top 3 for sure!

Longtime fans “love” this landmark Cincinnati deli with locations throughout the city serving “hearty”, “overstuffed” sandwiches (particularly the “terrific” Reuben) along with “famous” pickles and “second-to-none” potato pancakes; although the decor reminds some of a grade-school lunchroom, it’s affordable and the staff is “a hoot.”

Izzys always has good sandwiches, particularly any Reuben variation because the sauerkraut is always crisp and tart. The pickles are the real star though, and we inhale as many as possible every time we visit. The potato pancakes are unique and definitely worth a try – particularly if you are expecting something like a hash brown patty or a soft doughy cake.
