2023-05-07 23:02:29A nice sandwich place in Berkeley. The portion is good, and they have free lollipop that comes with the sandwich you order. I had Steph Curry, which is great. The sauce in the sandwich is pretty unique, and there are lots of choices on the menu. The restaurant has great creativity and it is worth trying.

2023-07-23 19:39:55TLDR: Ordered a simple Jim Rome.1st attempt: added surprise pickles2nd attempt: no turkey3rd attempt: no cheese, no avocadoI give up.Ordered a Jim Rome from their website with lettuce, tomato, and onion.It was delivered and made with pickles. I called the store and explained the situation. They gave me a refund which was awesome.I proceeded to order another sandwich on their website. The exact same thing. Once delivered, I found it was made without turkey....I got in my car and drove to the store and spoke with the same employee, I think, since there were only 2 working. He was shocked that turkey was not included and offered to remake the sandwich a 3rd time. I gave him both receipts with the same order and received the correct sandwich. I did bring back both mistakes and asked him if they could give it to someone. He said u could leave it and theyll give it to some homeless people at the end of the night. I was glad to hear the food was not going to waste.My issue boils down to ordering delivery for the convenience. After 2 attempts of delivery, I still had to drive down to the store and have them make the sandwich a 3rd time. I get that mistakes happen, but come on, twice in a row with the same sandwich and customer.It doesnt end there. I got home and went to eat the third attempt of my sandwich. No cheese. No avocado.Im done. Should I tempt fate and ask for a 4th remake? At this point its a lost cause.

2018-07-08 22:36:09A huge variety of sandwiches. Its friend chicken substitute for meat is most popular. The place has uneven crowd/rush - mostly for pick up as its not great for a dine-in experience. Its like any fast-food restaurant rather than a dine-in one. Definitely must try place.

2021-12-19 22:06:28I ordered the Tangerine girl sandwich. It was okay. The bread and sauce were way too sweet for my liking, and the sandwich was drenched in sauce. For a sandwich composed of cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles, and cheese, it definitely was not worth $11.52. Their menu said the sandwich was ~$9, but the cashier rung it up to be $11.52 + tip. Apparently, they’re in the process of adjusting their menu prices at the Berkeley location. I won’t be going back.

2017-09-03 20:39:34Place is super busy, food is pretty good, but kind of expensive. I would say better than subway, but $$$$$$$. Also, with hooked app 2 for 1 footlong at subway, I have to hold sub places at a higher standard. Also my friends split a sandwich, and it was not split very well. NOTE: this is not the best ikes!!

2023-05-03 02:47:13I came in just to order a sandwich, and not one that appeared on the order wall. I ordered a turkey with bacon on a French roll, and it was good. Like it was just made, which it was. It was my first time actually visiting an Ikes, and the sandwich made the visit worthwhile.

2019-12-07 03:19:09Walking through the mean streets of Berkeley, I walked into this place and saw a large selection of vegan sandwiches. A nice treat and the taste is good.

2023-04-11 01:32:54Sandwiches are great but love is nowhere to be found in employees with a bad attitude. Starting with the bathroom that was declared out of order as they couldnt be bothered looking for the key.

2022-06-04 23:47:55If I would have to describe Ikes in two words, I would say its just okay. Something about their sandwiches results in a strange aftertaste, and I dont particularly enjoy their dutch bread. Generally, Ive never found myself satisfied after visiting Ikes, but I do acknowledge that there are people who enjoy their new take on a sub-sandwich. Their employees are always perfectly nice, and the location is great, I just dont like their food.
