Isaac's Restaurant & Deli is a chain of soup and sandwich restaurants in South Central Pennsylvania. The corporate headquarters is located in the city of Lancaster, though the restaurant serves residents of Lancaster County, Chester County, York County, Hershey, Reading, and the Harrisburg area. Isaac's started in 1983 with two college friends named Phil Wenger and Isaac Williams opening the first restaurant in downtown Lancaster. As a tribute to Phil's father, who was an avid bird watcher, they incorporated a pink flamingo in their logo and named all of the sandwiches after birds. Today, the tradition of this kind of sandwich naming continues. Isaac's also serves unique variations of soups, salads, and desserts.
