Directions

When Izkina opened in Deep Ellum Youth Hostel, chef Joel Orsini was in the kitchen creating a menu of Spanish tapas that we loved. In 2019, though, Orsini left and Izkina got a new name — Booty's — and a menu focusing on "international street food." The food was still good, last time our critic was there, but different. Check out our stories on the rebranding for more details.
