Stopped by Ike's Love & Sandwiches and this one hit. The bread alone deserves a moment warm, fresh, with this perfect crunch on the outside and just a hint of sweetness that pulled everything together. I went with the halal chicken loaded with buffalo sauce, ranch, and provolone, and it was messy in the best way. Honestly, I wish I wasn't so hungry because this sandwich deserved to be savored, not devoured in record time. Every bite was balanced, indulgent, and straight-up satisfying. Definitely one of those sandwiches you think about later. read more

Lunch was on my job, so I finally ordered a sandwich considering I live in the city. The menu is overwhelming, imo, and nothing ever caught my eye enough to patronize the business. Now I know why. I ordered the Damon Bruce on dutch crunch. Meat: steak - It looks just like ground beef which I do NOT eat!! Two bites and I was scraping every crumble of "steak" from the sandwich. Sauce: ?? I didn't taste much of anything. Nothing to talk about here. Fried onion ring: Too soft and cold Bread: Way too thick. Waaaay too dry! It was hard to swallow and tasteless. This place may be for others, but it is not my cup of tea. read more

The sandwiches are really good, but expensive. However, they do have a loyalty program to make things a little easier on the wallet. Staff was cool, patient and helpful. The interior was interesting and fun! Overall, I take a star off because of price. I also do wish they had a reward for people who leave a review on Yelp or Google. Great vegan options! Hope that part of the menu becomes their main priority. Better for the planet and should be cheaper. read more

I ordered the #249 with vegan chicken and buffalo sauce. Many have been to Ike's numerous locations can agree is always a bit of an event: I expect it to be messy, with salad falling out as you eat, but I usually don't mind because it works well with their toasted Dutch crunch bread. Delivery timing was as expected; my order was ready about 10 minutes after placing it. There are around five small tables inside, set up cafeteria style facing forward. Unfortunately, this sandwich missed the mark for me. I couldn't taste or notice the buffalo sauce at all, and the protein portion was very small. I ended up leaving about a quarter of the top half of the bread uneaten because the filling ran out and it wasn't satisfying to keep going. It was okay. read more

TL;DR: place is always clean and staff is great. Pro Joe was a delicious sandwich Second time I visited this Carson location and it is everything great you expect at an Ike's The local exclusive is the Pro Joe. It has roast beef and bacon, in addition to the dirty sauce and Fixin's. On a Dutch crunch bread it is really good. I also kind of know that the staff was very attentive When I walked in they all turned to the door and greeted me. I know this is probably something that everyone should do, but it did not seem very mechanical in their attempts to say hi but it was rather a little more nice to see me as they are saying hi. read more

I haven't had a good sandwich in a while so while I was at IKEA I thought I'd stop in at Ike's! I ordered through the app which was a breeze and I wouldn't have to feel rushed to make a decision at the counter since they have so many options! I got the Phantom Elvis Kreep. Chicken (Halal), Bacon, Teriyaki, Wasabi Mayo, Swiss cheese. So goooood! I forgot how big their sandwiches are and it didn't disappoint! Inside was nice and clean with some high top tables to sit at. This was a great sandwich!! read more

I was introduced to Ike's less than two months ago, and I've been hooked ever since. A buddy of mine asked what we wanted for lunch, so I checked out the menu. I started with the Matt Cain, while my business partners ordered the Madison Bumgarner and Meatless Mike. We were blown away. One of them is vegetarian, and the options were surprisingly impressive. Rest in peace, Subway--we used to go there 2-3 times a week because it was convenient. Now, we gladly make the extra drive to the Carson location because the quality and consistency are worth it. Each week, we try something new: the Munchie Melt, the Steve Jobs, and today, the Da Vinci. It just keeps getting better. Even on busy days at the office, we'll order delivery because we know what to expect: consistent, delicious sandwiches made by a well-trained team. And those caramel apple lollipops? A sweet bonus. Special shoutout to Steve at the front--he's always welcoming, knows the menu inside and out, and gives great recommendations based on what we've tried before. He even remembers when it's been a while since we've stopped in, mentioning he's seen our name pop up for delivery orders. Today, I met Rob, who seems to be in upper management (might even be related to Ike ‍) I told him how much I appreciate the Ike's app and its generous rewards program--more people should know about it! I've been tagging and posting on social media to spread the word. I even tried to score a shirt during a Weedmaps promo but didn't win, so I went online to buy one. I'd love to see Ike's merchandise available in-store--I'd proudly wear it every time I visit. Thank you for opening in Carson and taking over the old Togo's spot. See you again soon! read more

I used to go to the one in Long Beach but I've been coming here since this place opened up and it never disappoints. *knock on wood* Their service is always consistent! The order is always on point, always right, and the service is immaculate. Was here during Father's Day and they have a promotion of buy one get one. What a steal! You can't beat that deal. Although the price for a vegan sandwich is kind of pricey, the portion is impressive imo. I love coming here, the staff is ALWAYS so friendly.. and my order is always legit. Highly recommended branch. I've been to other locations in El Segundo and Manhattan Beach, but this spot is the best. Their marketing department seems to be doing a good job because their coupons in the app and emails always get me! :) read more

Criminally underrated and highly delicious subs, there is truly a sandwich for every occasion and taste here at Ike's! My favorites were the meatless meatball sub (absolutely delicious) and the pastrami, but would absolutely recommend experimenting given the high quality of ingredients in any sub! They are also perfect for catering given the size and variety of the subs. Come try Ike's! read more

Expensive, but it's by far my favorite sandwich place in southern california. They offer so many great options.

The sandwich was amazing. The meat and vegetables were fresh, and their special sauce was perfection. I ordered delivery, but since the spot isn't far from my house, everything arrived fresh. Their drink and chip options complement the meal perfectly. I'll definitely be ordering again, even if I can never remember the long, quirky names of their sandwiches! read more

Ike's Love & Sandwiches - 34. HUNTER PENCE - Sandwiches Near Me - Carson, California

This review is solely based on an order from a delivery service. I forgot what one because food was bought for our office. At first I was overwhelmed by the menu. There is so much to choose from. I got the Da Vinci. At first I chose french bread then went to look at everyone else's order. They all got Dutch crunch. I thought to myself ( they must know something I don't) I quickly switched to Dutch crunch. I got my sandwich without veggies well because they don't transport well. When I took that first bite I was very nervous ...Italian dressing on a sandwich???? When I took that first bite I was like WOW!!!!! Now this was my first time ever having Ike's sandwiches. I was truly impressed and I can't wait to go back and take my son. read more

I was always curious about this place & finally had the chance to try it. There's a pretty good selection of sandwiches, which I love & the employees are really nice! As an Ike's newbie, I went with one of the popular ones which was the, "Menage A Trois." #111. I highly recommend, this halal chicken sandwich with chips. It's so good!!!!! read more

This location has fire food and even better service providers, I came in today for the first time at this location and I witnessed such a kind act, one of the sandwich artists David ,gave a struggling man a sandwich and drink. Kindness that you rarely witness anymore and it almost brought me to tears. The sandwiches aren't the only good thing about this place. Definitely earned a returning customer out of me read more

Ike"s makes some really good sandwiches. They have lots of vegetarian options as well as traditional turkey, club sandwiches etc... Service was pretty good, parking was easy and there is a Starbucks just a door or two down so you can get a sandwich and your favorite overpriced coffee all in one center! read more

I want to Shout out Gianni for helping me pick an amazing sandwich as a first time guest here. I was a little skeptical to get anything but when I start talking to Gianni, he asked me the right questions. What type of meat do you like? Do you like sweet do you like savory and I really think that help me pick my sandwich I end up getting the number 34 and when I say that fucking sandwich was amazing, I haven't had a sandwich like that in a long long long time . He was patient and kind and it was definitely 10 out of 10 experience. Run and go to my boy Gianni thank you again for my phenomenal experience and food. read more

My fiance and I came here a couple days ago to get our favorite sandwich the Madison Bumgarner! We always order it with vegan steak, sourdough, avocado and extra sauce. It was delicious! STEVE IS SUPER FRIENDLY AND AWESOME!!! He made sure we got exactly what we wanted! It's also my fiancé's birthday month and we didn't know we'd get a super discount!!! The restaurant was clean and the music was good! We love coming to this location! read more

Still good like always. Thank you! Just a note for myself. Trying not to eat red meat and switching my sandwich was a mistake. What happens at Ike's was good but not as good as my normal, Madison Bumgarner. read more

My husband raves about this place, but unfortunately I was supposed to order inside to get a decent sandwich. Also, What is up with employees just letting your food sit on the counter while they socialize?? Mind you there is not one customer in the restaurant. This is the second time this has happened, the last time I waited 15 minutes with an online order. I get home and open my sandwich it is completely drenched in sauce , there are missing toppings there is one slice of each meat that is featured for the da Vinci. What a sloppy mess, I can't believe I paid $20 for this, huge disappointment. I would like a refund but it's not even worth the hassle. read more

Although I've been to Ike's before, this was my first time to this particular location. No worries, though, because this location maintains the same high standards as the others I've been to. On this visit, I chose the Damon Bruce with steak, steak sauce, onion rings, provolone, lettuce, and tomato. I, of course, went with the Dutch Crunch roll for my bread. The sandwich tasted great and was exactly what I was hoping for. Like all locations, they have an extensive menu, so you should find something to your liking. The inside is clean, and the staff (Steve) was helpful. Parking is a little tight since it's a little small and shared with other businesses. read more

I just recently started going to Ike's, as it was recommended to me, and I just have to say the quality and taste of their sandwiches are 10/10! My go to is the Hunter Pence sub! The only thing I have to mention is I really teetered between 4 or 5 stars & that's solely based on the customer service & that's not to say it's bad but it's only okay! I feel the service just barely meets the mark, not terrible but also not great. But since I'm big on good customer service (coming from someone who works in it) I always have to take it into account when making my reviews, but overall I would definitely recommend Ike's and see myself coming back! read more

I wanna be, I wanna be, like Ike! I absolutely love Ike's sandwiches. I haven't tasted a sandwich I haven't liked. From the Vegan selection to the meat, everything here is a delicious treat. The service is always a plus, fast, friendly and helpful . Shout out to Steve who has the best dancing skills and customer service. Whether you're dinning in or grabbing it to go, the inside is always clean with people enjoying their food. If you haven't decided already to try it...smack yourself! lol. Ike's will always get you right. read more

First timer here and staff are were truly patient and was able to make suggestions. The inside of the restaurant is big enough to sit and eat your meal but can only imagine how packed they can get.

I've had really great sandwiches from Ike's but this time was the worst. The bread was so hard that it left the roof of my mouth numb. I feel sorry for the people that may think this is normal. When I called the worker didn't seem too concerned. The food is good... just not sure about the bread. If I wasn't so hungry I would have definitely gone back to have them remake the sandwiches. read more

As always, great friendly service (David and Rafa were super chill and helpful!), chill atmosphere (not as busy as El Segundo location), and the new "Floryn", their vegan bulgogi sandwich that David recommended, was! ! - The Floryn (Vegan Bulgogi) (5 out of 5) - Spicy Cajun Crawtators (5 out of 5...as always) - Diet Dr. Pepper (I know, I know‍lol...no rating) Overall: 5 out of 5!

I wanted a sandwich. Had this spot in my bookmarks for a while and wanted to try it but hadn't gotten around to it. Ample Parking. Inside: greeted by a female staff (apologies, forgot her name but she was nice, friendly and attentive) Learned of the sandwich options - the menu is a bit elaborate and so as to not get overwhelmed I got: + Name Of The Girl I'm Dating [chicken, dirty sauce, avocado, provolone, pickles, red onions, lettuce, tomato] + Zapp's New Orleans Kettle Style Spicy Cajun Crawtators + Tea drink I wasn't told my sandwich was going to be hot so that caught me off guard. I did wait for it to cool off before eating it. Overall meal: 4/5 rating. I like that a lollipop comes with your purchase - that's a super cute touch! I recommend and am interested in returning to try other menu items. read more

Food is great taste clean the bread oh my God, the bread. First time I'm eating at this place because I got a flat tire 100% will be back even had to call a few friends to let them know how good it was.! I witnessed a caring employee; a homeless man walked in older, was not a druggie just look like a person that was just literally down on their luck and struggling. An employee by the name of David made the gentleman a sandwich free of charge. Go David !!! For letting him have one of Elli's best sandwiches. read more

I'm a huge fan of the dutch crunch bread. It's killer. It makes the sandwich freaking incredible. There's not much to love about Ike's Sandwiches, except for the price. There's something to be said about the recent (12month) increase in prices that has yet to not claim a victim in the restaurant industry, and Ike's is no different. At close to $15/sandwich, it's not an everyday expense that we can drop often. However, the sandwiches are seriously delicious. I've had the Madison Baumgartner sandwich many times and the quality is just unrivaled. One complaint about this location - getting in and out of this plaza is really hard. It sits at a weird corner off the freeway. If you overshoot the turn, you have to make 3 left turns to get back to the square. read more

Yea they got me with this one. And this SPECIFIC location. I had Ike's once when they catered at my school. They were good when it was just left overs so I felt since I was in the area, that I check them out when fresh, and I was NOT disappointed. After scanning the extensive menu, I settled on getting the JAYMEE. The staff/sandwich preparer was generous in her responses when I was asking about the preparation of my sandwich, I LOVED THAT SHE SENT THE FRIED CHICKEN STRIPS THREW THE OVEN 3 TIMEEEEEESSSSSS! MADE SURE IT WAS FULLY COOKED. It was about 3-4strips on my sandwich, and I added other toppings and ingredients. If they had a bigger chip and drink selection they'd have the top stop for sandwich franchises. Debate on going every night! AMAZING. read more

Ike's has the best sandwiches I've ever had. I always get the Adam Richman with sourdough bread, which has fried chicken, lettuce, pesto, tomato, ham, avocado, honey, mozzarella, pickles, and yellow peppers. Their sandwiches are pretty big. One half of a sandwich is a whole meal for me! Their employees are also always nice and professional. read more

Ooh Backstabber! Hmm before you think I'm about to write a bad saga about a backstabber...I'm actually going to write all about Love and Sandwiches :). This is only my second time visiting Ike's Love and Sandwiches and only my first time at the Carson location. I love Ike's sandwiches and their creative names. On my visit here I got the #30 Backstabber. It's a sandwich with halal chicken, creamy Caesar, marinated artichoke hearts, provolone on dutch crunch bread and priced at $10.45. I'm not quite sure why it's called the Backstabber but I got nothing but love for this sandwich hehe. The Backstabber sandwich reminded me a lot of a classic chicken salad sandwich. This was actually a surprise as I was expecting the halal chicken to be more like a chicken patty or strips but instead it was more shredded. The creamy Caesar dressing in the sandwich reminded me a bit of mayo too. I was chose this sandwich primarily because I saw it had marinated artichoke hearts. It's not every day you find artichokes in a sandwich. I was happy with the flavor the artichokes gave but definitely would have loved to see more artichoke in there. Overall I continue to be a fan of Ike's! Their sandwiches are unique and tasty. I found this location to also overall be good. Service as quick and location was clean. read more

The good: I tried the "We're just friends" sandwich and the Paul Reuben (a favorite of mine). The Paul Reuben has pastrami, purple slaw and "dirty sauce". I've been to 3-4 other Ike's sandwich shops and I truly love their stuff! They have so many sandwich combinations. There is something for everyone. The sandwiches are huge and very filling. I've been to 2-3 other locations (including the original one in SF) and have consistently enjoyed sandwiches from here. I was able to order for delic The bad: These sandwiches can get pretty messy because they're packed with stuff and sauces. The interesting: The sandwiches were so physically heavy! You could hurt someone with it. Ike is a real guy who looks just like the cartoon icon they have! read more

Ordered a ménage a trois and the Damon. Spent $15 on the first sandwich and was a total let down; no veggies at all on it. I referenced the picture on the website which has lettuce and tomatoes. I did tell the cashier how it comes is fine thinking it came with those as it's pictured with it on the site. Unfortunately it does not come with veggies or mentioned on the menu that veggies were optional and not included. Sandwich was a disappointment as is, but would've been better with veggies like it depicts on the site. Workers were nice tho. read more
