A Peek Behind the Scenes

BEHIND THE SCENES...

 

Every croissant, every loaf of sourdough, every caramel drizzle has a story. This week, we wanted to share a glimpse of the real work behind the magic.

 

📸 In this week’s GIF:

  • Chef Lane carefully crafting the brittle that tops our Browned Butter Caramel Knots.

  • Dani lining up display items with surgeon-level precision.

  • Colin hauling a bus tub of heavy cutting boards like it’s nothing.

  • One of our newest team members, Sen, dusted head-to-toe in flour, learning the art of sourdough.

  • Our Tahitian vanilla knot dough, cut and waiting to be rolled.

  • The Dojo team breaking into smiles to celebrate Don’s birthday.

  • A sweet handwritten note from our Dojo team to our bakers.

  • The dining room transformed into a sea of suds during deep clean.

What ties all of this together? Care. Dedication. Sweat (sometimes floury sweat). Our team pours so much love into every detail, big and small, so that the IZOLA experience feels effortless.

If you’ve ever felt the joy in your croissant’s first bite, or in the warmth of the welcome when you walk through our door, that’s this team's work shining through.

 

Thank you Team IZOLA for your relentless focus, your eye for detail, and your passion for creating joy in every bite. You are IZOLA.

 

Our team is here and baking hot-from-the-oven every day!

HOST YOUR NEXT EVENT AT IZOLA

 

Our dining room doesn’t just shine during the day — it transforms beautifully at night for private dinners, celebrations, and special gatherings.

 

Recently, The Blank Table brought in chefs Danny and Dante Romero, filling IZOLA with incredible food, conversation, and community. We provided the space, they provided the feast, and together it became a night to remember.

 

Whether you bring in your own chef, caterer, or just your closest friends, IZOLA is the perfect backdrop to make your event extraordinary.
