The sandwiches were perfection! We ordered the Lita Canrana and Time Traveler both on the amazing Dutch crunch bread. Really delicious all around. The premium soda and tea selection is great and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. Will definitely visit again.

Ikes has the best tasting vegan and vegetarian sandwiches and options. Its a fun place to eat and make orders off the menu. There are so many fantastic names for the sandwiches, and the experience is friendly. Its a little on the pricey side, but its worth the cost. I go there as a treat to myself. When you go, tell them Omar sent you.

Flavorful subs with lots of varieties of bread, cheeses, sauces, and vegetarian options. I liked the flavors of the sandwich. I ordered the dutch bread which was very good. I did order pickup and it was ready to go when I arrived. Only con was that in my sandwich the cheese was not melted entirely so had warm/cold slices inside. Also asked for extra cheese & indicated provolone but received cheddar. Not too big of a deal but if those things were good then the sandwich would have been great. I would recommend.

Best sandwiches in the South Bay. Order almost once a week from here through door dash. Great gluten free bread too. Our favorite sandwiches are Backstabber, Madison Bumgarner, Damon Bruce, Screaming eagle.The dutch crunch bread is so unique and a must have when you order.The gluten free bread is also great.

Ike’s seems to be thee sandwich spot to go to these days. The brands iconic bald head sign is honestly very eye-catching and definitely catches your attention.This certain location took over another sandwich joint. Its nestled in a busy food court-type area in El Segundo. Having been to the previous sandwich spot that was there, I saw that they kept the same layout and just changed the paint job and added Ike’s decor. With that being said, it felt a bit outdated and old. Especially the bathroom, gross! Not sure why they decided to not revamp the place.Anyways, the food itself was it! The menu is very creative with a lot of sandwiches to choose from. I forgot the name of my sandwich because I literally just closed my eyes and pointed at a random one because I couldnt make up my mind. HahaThe gentleman at the counter was very nice and it didnt take much time at all for my order. So, would I go back? I probably wouldnt come back to this location. Instead, Ill go to a brand new one.

Im done with it. Been here a handful of times and it gets progressively worse every time. For starters, the service is incredibly slow. Even when I order ahead of time online, its never ready on time. Sometimes I walk in and they straight up say we arent taking any orders, itll be at least 30 minutes. Sorry its just not worth the wait. Then when I finally get the food, its messy as hell with sauce all over dripping out of the sandwich, really difficult to eat. And after all that I immediately have a stomach ache. Ive never left here thinking wow! Great food!!

Wow, yall! This was the best sandwich I have ever eaten in my 55 years! Fresh bread, ingredients, and so much care was taken to make it. Stuff was piled on! No skimping on ingredients. Amazing and delicious! It was even wrapped well and came with plenty of napkins. So many vegetarian and vegan options, although I opted for the Adam Richman. Thanks, Ikes! ❤️

I was shocked at how good the vegetarian sandwiches are. Many of the sandwiches are warm so keep that in mind. They are best when eaten fresh. Do yourself a fav and try different sandwiches so you can discover new flavors.

Great options for vegetarians. We ordered 2 veggie sandwiches Helen Keller and Handsome Owl. Helen Keller was great but Handsome Owl was too high on Wasabi. In Handsome Owl’s description it says they use wasabi mayo but in my order I guess they forgot about mayo.

Update: after further inspecting the sandwich, I found a SECOND piece hair. I tried to call the business but no one answered the phone and the mailbox was full. Gross!I went to this place after it was recommended by a few of my coworkers. Before I eat my food, I tend to look at the various components of whatever I’m eating. I just found the longest piece of hair in my food (shown in pictures below). It wasn’t just on the sandwich, it was embedded in the pickles and cheese. This grossed me out so badly. This was my first and last time trying this place out. Someone needs to put on a hairnet! I could vomit. My stomach turned because I had already finished half of the sandwich. 🤢🤮

Ikes Love in El Segundo just opened - so stoked! First time at this location and guess who was there...Ike! Fantsatic guy! HS If ya dont know this is not a bland train stop sub. You are getting a great helping of meat, always fresh with balanced flavour. Dutch Crunch bread is my go-to. Staff was both attentive and enjoying themselves - Im going back.

Usually a family favourite but today there were no fountain drinks and the sourdough was a bit dry/bland- perhaps it was stale.

Review №17

2023-08-13 21:10:31

Clean location, service women were condescending and lacking in attention to customers and dry/short annoyed answers to any questions. Decent though, I believe robots would give less of a negative atmosphere.

New favorite sub shop! Actually craving some now, its absolutely unique and delicious and so many options. suggest viewing menu before visiting so you dont hold lines up. It a hard choice.

Lots of veggie options! I had the James and the Giant Peach and it was wonderful, loved the BBQ sauce. Looking forward to trying the rest.

Ikes sandwiches are some of the best Ive had outside of full service restaurants, but the prices were astronomical. The prices listed on the menu in their shop were the same as they were in the pictures (~$12), but I was charged about $2 more per sandwich than was advertised in addition to a tip.Ill definitely be back, but I dont plan on buying these sandwiches beyond special occasions.

Review №22

2023-01-02 15:46:59

This Sandwich shop is unique! There are so many different sandwiches to choose from! Each person in our group chose a different sandwich, all raved about each. There was a wait, but it was well worth it! I hope they open a shop close to where I live.

Very tasty chicken sandwich. A little pricey, but I suppose thats California. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant, seems a lot more personal rather than generic franchise. Service was a little slow at this location, but the sandwich was delicious.

2022-06-13 01:40:43

Vegan meatballs? Absolutely spectacular! The texture was spot on for hamburger, the marinara was the perfect tangy, the perfect amount of lettuce! I dont know what alien science was used to perfect this but I definitely wish they were local to me.Staff was friendly, service was fast, and the restaurant was clean. I couldnt ask for more.

My first visit to Ikes so I played it safe and had the SF Cheesesteak. It was tasty 😋 and unique with the Dutch Crunch bread. Friendly servers and quick service. Great variety on menu. Ill be back! 👍🏽

Really good sandwiches! I ordered the Jaymee Sirewich which is a fried chicken with lettuce, tomatoes, good bbq sauce and dirty sauce (some sort of white sauce?). I ordered from the app and the sandwich was ready when I arrived. Highly recommend!

Asian employee was scratching his back and touching the cash register with the gloves he was cooking with. He and a Caucasian male were talking to each other and it took forever for my food to get done. It seemed like they were dragging their feet. I was also overcharged for a cookie, but the food wasn’t good, so I don’t even want to go back for a refund or the extra cookie I was charged for. The chicken on the eggplant sandwich was limp and the eggplant just didn’t look appealing.

Review №28

2022-12-01 20:39:13

The sandwiches are good, but the service is really slow. It took 25 minutes to get my sandwich after I ordered it. The dining area was completely full with people waiting and very few actually eating.

Omg. What great Sandwiches and Service. Love the selection and the Dutch Crunchy Bread is totally worth the calories. Will definitely be back soon to try more

The sandwiches look good. But the cashier didn’t even know they offer cold sandwiches. Also she couldn’t do simple math. My change was 3.91 and I told her I’ll give her a dime and just give me back 4 but she was confused and tried giving me back 3 and change still. Hope the sandwich is good. And they charge 2.25 for a small bag of chips. Probably better off buying chips elsewhere. My total was 16 for a sandwich and a bag of chips. Said thank you as I was leaving the store and not one employee acknowledged. One star for the customer service. Edit- the sandwich was all bread rather go to Jersey Mike’s next time for better sandwiches and less price and better customer service

First time I went here it was great. My boyfriend and I kept talking about how much we loved our lunch throughout the evening. We even told our friend he should go try it. Two days later I went back and was excited to get the same exact sandwich. However, this time it was too salty, the chicken was too chewy, and I was charged for extra sauce but the sandwich seemed to have less sauce then the first time when I didnt ask for extra sauce. The second time around I was disappointed.

Best meatball sub I have ever eaten. The Dutch crunch bread was awesome. I will be back to eat here again.

Gordo was an awesome host and knew the menu well! I recommend the shop if your looking for out of the same everyday. I had a Ruben it was heaven on El Segundo by the sea.

2021-05-31 04:50:15

Ikes was recommended so I tried it. Sandwich was ok. Extensive menu. But wasnt particularly impressed. Multiple sauces made it difficult to discern and describe a particular flavor. Too soggy as well. Lettuce was soaked in this yellow BBQ sauce. Very unlikely to visit again. Staff was nice.

Review №37

2021-06-26 22:59:46

A really high quality sandwich place although maybe a little TOO high quality because unfortunately my avocado in my menage trois was still raw and had not yet ripened before preparation. The texture (not to mention the taste) of a raw avocado jumped out halfway through this amazing sandwich. Still would come back but hope the people prepping know to check the avocados in the future.

Review №38

2022-04-07 01:27:01

If youve never eaten here before, the sandwiches and their names are so unique that, you must read the menu to figure out what to order. These are not traditional sandwiches and provide something different and healthful for hungry palettes.

I am shook. As someone from Santa Rosa- I was LITERALLY CRAVING these. I was absolutely SHOCKED to see them on grubhub and ordered immediately. It was like taking a bite of home

Ikes is legendary sandwiches. Super tasty and flavorful. I had the screaming eagle. Chicken fried steak was crisp and well seasoned. My friend had the Meatless Mike and was very impressed also.

Fast and friendly customer service with unique signature sandwiches like the Marshawn Lynch. The sandwiches are good with available variety of chips for purchase as a separate item. Bay Area fave is in SoCal and not missed a beat.

Review №42

2021-03-01 21:29:28

Got the cheesesteak. Not bad, but not jump up and down good. Also,...you must be a fan of kings hawaiian bread. The sandwich is served on some sort of sweet bread with baked on cheese to make crispy. Almost overpowers actual sandwich.Server was neg on explaining bread option, didnt see until I had sandwich in hand. Dont know if all optionsare sweetened. If so with what?

Review №43

2021-05-19 03:25:03

Excellent sandwiches! Huge selection of different sandwiches. Lots of vegetarian options if you are into that (ie. a rabbit pretending to be a person 😁). French bread on the sandwich was excellent. Very fresh and nicely toasted.

I was happy to see that Ikes opened near me. It isnt super close but not too far. I always enjoy my sandwiches. Their Dutch Crunch bread is awesome. My favorite sandwich is the John Wayne. It has steak, dirty dressing (a delicious sauce) & American cheese. Second favorite is the Madison Bumgarner (Steak, Yellow BBQ Sauce, Habanero, American cheese & Pepper Jack cheese). My son loves the Chase Ottney is Hella Sexy (Turkey & Provolone). They have so many interesting combinations of protein cheese and sauces. There are still like 5 sandwiches I want to try. But every time I go I order the John Wayne. But I want to try [Name of the Girl Im Dating] which has Halal Chicken, Honey Mustard, Avocado & Pepper Jack cheese. The Menage a Trois(Halal Chicken, BBQ Sauce, Honey Mustard, Real Honey, Pepper Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese & Swiss cheese). I could keep going on but you get the point. If you or someone you are with is Vegetarian/Vegan there are lots of sandwiches for you/them. They have good kettle potato chips with good flavors. Oh and they give you a caramel apple lollipop or a blue raspberry charms Blow Pop with every sandwich. If youre craving a sandwich give this place a try it is definitely my favorite sandwich shop.

Second time I go to this place, second time they charge more than the sticker price. You have a small note saying they are in the progress of updating the price displayed. This note has been there for over a month. Bad business practice there.

Review №46

2021-08-20 20:56:41

Ordered at 12:53, waited almost 40 min for my sandwich. Came here on lunch break and spent most of it waiting. Was told that steak takes a long time to make. If this is the case they should let you know when you order so you can decide if you want to wait.

From the bay to LA, the love is there. Some employees could use some professional development but that’s not to take away from the fire sandwiches they make. I ordered the Matt Cain and Madison Bumgarner, I enjoyed the Matt Cain more.Update : I tried the MENAGE A TROIS, 5/5

2021-08-17 22:02:19

I didn’t know what i wanted to eat so i just ordered the first thing i saw which was gas. All i can say is that halal chicken or whatever was bussin and they sauced it down. On top of that, they throw in 2 of the caramel apple jawns. I should’ve took a pic but it was gone too fast no cap. Much love here indeed

Probably the worst sandwhich ive ever had. Bread was chewy and bland, I asked for everything on it and got lettuce and tomato. Cheese was thin and melted . Meat hardly enjoyable.

Drove by looking for Which wich but didnt realize they closed. As I rolled up, decided to give it a shot. Was hungry, and didnt want to drive anywhere else in rush hour traffic. I was starving. I guess they just opened a week ago?First. This sandwich is not a traditional sandwich. Its very hearty. (at least the one I got) It reminded me something someone would make for you in a Chicago hot dog place.A little pricey but thats the price way pay now to live in LA unfortunately. The sandwich cost me just over $13. Sandwich Only) Comparing it to other sammich shops in the area, I was hoping it would be just a bit bigger for the price. Usually for $12 of food, Im eating it over 2 meals.That being said. The size and taste were right. As I sit here developing food coma deciding what to write.Their menu is HUUUGE. And its all crazy options you probably havent seen before. Im not one who likes to see a ton of things with different ingredients then have it customized to what I want. So I had the default version of 240.Madison Bumgarner. With the Dutch Crunch bread. First time having it. Delish. Not spicy at all tho for me. But still really good.They have a vegetarian menu too.Im just gonna keep this simple and try not to overhype it. Try it out. I liked it a lot and cant wait to try out the rest of the sandwiches. There were at leat 6 I know Im coming back for over the new few months lol. I will have to pace myself tho. Sammiches are in the double digits... And I have to prepare for the weight gain lol. I wish them success and I hope their quality stays the same for years to come.Staff was great. The girl at the register knew her sandwiches and had great recommendations.Ill be back. With friends.
