Fodor's Review:

The hospitable Izzy Gomez was a legendary San Francisco saloon keeper, and this gimmicky steakhouse does right by his name. It's a clamorous, old-fashioned spot serving terrific steaks -- especially dry-age sirloins -- and chops, plus all the trimmings, from cheesy scalloped potatoes to creamed spinach. Regulars favor the Caesar salad or Cajun fried oysters to start, followed by the prime rib, which sells out fast. Cholesterol counters should check their doctors' advice at the door. A collection of Izzy memorabilia is on display, including photographs from the Forbidden City, a 1930s nightclub whose patrons typically made their way to Izzy's saloon after attending the club's raucous, all-Chinese floor show.
