Well, it IS a good sandwich! But between the sandwich, small drink and small bag of chips (and a tip of course) it is a $20 for lunch. So, a good sandwich? Yep. Worth $20…? Ahm… not sure about that. What they do right - is that the sandwich is built in such a good way that you’re getting all the ingredients and flavors in each bite. And it was freshly made. Although it was good, not sure I’ll be back, as for such a price you can get a much better lunch offers IMO.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I just had my first of many to come Ike's Sandwiches last night. The Ruben was out of this world! The gluten free bread shames other sub/sandwich shops. It holds true to the last bite with amazing flavor and texture. The pastrami with a hint of smoky flavor blends masterfully with the crisp slaw mix and dressing. The people were very helpful and enthusiastic about the love and art that goes in to every sandwich. I'm headed there now for lunch. My only issue is deciding which wich is to be devoured next! Expect to pay around $15-$17 per sub with tip. Not bad for a sandwich experience!

I used to like Ike’s but man, they have done something with the portions where there’s almost no meat on their sandwiches. It’s bread and toppings. I just paid $19 for a Reuben (a reuben!) that has a single pathetic thin layer of meat on it. What happened man? The picture attached is the thickest area of the sandwich; the outboard edges are literally without meat at all.
