This place was okay. I ordered their famous reubon sandwich and it honestly was nothing special.
I came in here at around lunchtime and there were a lot of people getting takeout. With that said, it's not that favorable to sit and eat as there are quite a few people standing around waiting for their order.
When I ate my sandwich, the bread was a little too soft. As for the meat, it seemed kind of average. Not bad, but just not a lot of flavor. The potato patty was a bit dissipointing as well. It was not really flavorful at all.
Overall, I really didn't enjoy the food. It was okay, but nothing really much more than that.
When in Cincinnati on a Friday we have the matzo ball soup. Izzy's has been a family tradition for years, so much so that we usually skip trying new places when we're downtown. It's nothing fancy but they are always hustling and bustling with customers and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. If you want the matzo ball soup you really do need to go on a Friday though. It's not offered other days of the week.
I've waited a long time to get their potato pancakes and was disappointed in them. They were less than room temperature and didn't seem fresh. Our sandwiches were great and the service was good
