2023-02-20 19:50:32Whenever I visit California it’s always a treat to visit Ike’s for a vegan sandwich. Love that they opened in Irvine - perfect spot!Simply put the vegan selection is epic - so many tastes options with vegan cheese options. On the pricey side that’s the only downside and the only aspect is knock it for but the sandwiches are very nice and filling.If you’re in a rush and there are 1 or 2 people ahead of you be prepared for a bit of a wait also.

2023-10-27 19:20:58My go to Sandwich stop. Everytime I go here the food is delicious and filling beyond belief. It is a bit pricey when it comes to sandwiches but the taste, quality, and service are always worth it. Most of the times I go here on my lunch hour and the gentlemen who usually runs the counter always has a smile and a suggestion on how to order the best sandwich possible. And his suggestions are always solid. I believe his name is Gary. They have a large selection of sandwiches and are open to customization.The dirty sauce is to die for.

2023-09-27 08:29:31Had one of the best, if not the best ever, sandwiches here, and they had a good variety of drinks too (not just your typical sodas). Thanks to Gary, I had a great experience too! Gary was super helpful, made great suggestions, and was on top of every aspect of our visit there. Not kidding, such a delicious sandwich!

2022-12-28 04:13:30I had high hopes for Ikes. I had meant to go to the Tustin location when it opened, but was never in the mood for a sandwich while in the area. After learning a location opened in Lake Forest, I stopped by to check them out and pick up an easy dinner. I ordered the 957 (The Damon Bruce). The dutch crunch roll fell apart in my hands. The steak tasted like it came from a low quality TV dinner. The provolone cheese was missing. The onion rings were completely wet and so undercooked the onion was difficult to bite through. Nothing was very warm.I might try another location sometime, but its unlikely. $32 spent on two sandwiches. They werent worth even the time spent waiting in line to place the order. (It was empty inside. The wait time was 0).

2023-03-31 06:16:21We got the were just friends & menage a trois. The were just friends was my favorite from the two. The chicken was soft, tender, and the zesty orange glaze paired perfectly with the avocado. The menage a trois was warm and crunchy. The halal chicken went really well with the BBQ sauce & honey. Not a typical sandwich, but its one of the best Ive had!

2023-07-17 00:18:22Gary was super helpful and extremely kind in helping me choose the kind of sandwich I wanted. He gave me great recommendations of his his favorite sandwiches and made my experience very pleasant. It was my first time at Ike’s sandwiches and I got the Jaymee Sirewich sandwich (with certain substitutions). I would definitely recommend! :)

2023-08-13 04:36:56When I went to this location, I had completely forgotten that each locations menu differs slightly so I was surprised to see that the steph curry wasnt offered here, but this gave me the push I needed to try something new. I ended up ordering the Madison Bumgarner, and it was pretty good. Ikes is known for its Dutch crunch bread and it lives up to the expectations so I would definitely recommend trying it. Service is pretty great, and there is a decent amount of parking available, albeit the parking lot is laid out in a strange way.

2022-10-26 02:45:38If you’re hungry for a sandwich, look no other place than Ike’s. Ike’s is hands down my favorite sandwich shop. The staff is super helpful and friendly. The sandwiches are awesome!!! So many different options- seriously, a ton- including halal, vegetarian, and vegan. I try to get a new one each time. My go to sandwiches are the We’re Just Friends, Friday the 13th, and Madison Bumgarner. Ike’s has been my go to sandwich shop for a minute and I’m super happy there’s one now in South OC!

2023-07-29 04:32:15I wish I knew the name of the gentleman working tonight because he was the absolute best. He went out of his way to walk through a good portion of the menu with me and tell me his favorites and make recommendations based on my likes. I think his name may have started with a P. 10/10 would recommend
