Izzy’s is a great place. a staple of downtown Cincy. They are known for their Ruben. However I recommend the Izzy’s Mex (spicier Ruben) or “The Suzzy” which is turkey and cranberry-orange relish with cream cheese… it’s better than it sounds.
I first started going to Izzys over 40 years ago. I remember Izzy working behind the counter across the street from WLWT. The food I had tonight was as good as when Izzy would hand me my sandwich in the 70s!

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!

Awesome server! Beef and barley soup was great even by itself. Ruben and potato cakes were nice going with it. Also enjoyed the carrot cake. Recommended to anyone passing through the Cincinnati area!
