Damon Bruce "steak" that looks like ground beef - YUCK!!
Tae G.

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.

411. WHAT HAPPENS AT IKE'S STAYS AT IKE'S 411.

Redeemed by birthday reward for this year and tried the "what happens at Ike's stays at Ike's" and it was so good! Fresh veggies, chicken was plentiful and the sauce was evenly distributed. Usually it's too saucy and the entire sandwich is too wet, but it was great this time! I normally do the Dutch crunch bread but opted for sourdough this time, and it was still very yummy! Just wished the sandwich came with the Ike's purple slaw, but I can add it next time. Worker was nice and got me my Mobile pick up order quickly. The store is decked out in decorations and they also do sell loaves of bread there as well!

The veggie menu!

The vegetarian sandwiches at Ike's are absolutely to die for! The service is fantastic and friendly! Love how huge the menu is for vegetarians like me. It's always so hard to find a place like this -- with so many selections. Ambiance is nice and clean. This is one of my regular stops!

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.

Pro Joe
Rich E.

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.

Tried the Matt Cain sandwich added the red onion(recommend) Fresh and testy the sauce is great Highly recommend

They are very patience with my orders and nice! Seating tables are very clean. Sandwiches smell so fresh!

Ike's Love & Sandwiches in Carson is a great move if you want a loaded, creative sandwich spot right in town. They are known for big flavors, Dutch Crunch bread, and a menu that can keep you busy for months.

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!!

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!

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! :)

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!

Da  Vinci  without veggies
Marisa A.

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.

If you blink, you might miss Yo‑Way, this tiny little sandwich hideout tucked in Gardena, but trust…read moreme, your stomach will NOT miss it. The shop is small, seating is limited. But honestly, that's part of the charm. It's like Gardena's version of a speakeasy... except instead of cocktails, you're sneaking in for a fat Italian sandwich. Let me tell you, my Pop's Italian sandwich came out looking like it was sexy and ready to be destroyed. All grown. Mature. Responsible. This thing had layers on layers, stacked like it was trying to win a bodybuilding competition. Generous portions...Understatement. I got excited...I picked it up and immediately felt like I needed to stretch first. It's filling, flavorful, and hits you with that perfect combo of salty, savory, and "I should've worn looser clothes." Service is friendly in that classic neighborhood "G-Town" way, quick, warm, and no nonsense. They're not trying to be fancy; they're trying to feed you. And they do it well. You walk in, order, vibe for a bit, and boom, sandwich magic. By the time I finished the Pop's Italian, I had to sit in my car for a minute and reevaluate my life's next choices. Not in a bad way, more like, "Wow... I really just demolished that whole thing. Should I be proud? Should I be concerned? Should I take a nap?" "I decided to go work out rather than take a nap."

The staff was incredibly friendly and walked me through how to build my sandwich, which I appreciated as a first-time customer. I ordered the Blazin' Cajun sandwich and substituted the protein with the golden turkey. Great choice--the sandwich was packed with meat and toppings. The portions are generous. I only ate half for lunch and saved the other half for later, and it was just as good. If you're looking for a solid, satisfying sandwich without all the fuss, this place is definitely worth checking out. I'll be back to try another combination.

The cost of the item did not really stand up to the quality paying five bucks for a thing of fries is crazy work, especially for a small batch of fries. I wouldn't even pay five dollars for McDonald's fries.

My son and I had an appointment nearby and he asked if we could have this for lunch. I'm always up for trying new places, so I agreed. We came in, and were welcomed by a tall gentleman at the entrance with, "Pick up?" I said no and he walked over to the cashier's side as he saw me perusing the menu; he asked if this was my first time. I confirmed and he went over the menu; which I appreciated. I opted for the broccoli cheddar baked potato bowl with steak and shrimp, while my son went for the spaghetti and meatballs. The gentleman was kind enough to offer us samples of the beverages. I really liked the orange drink, while my son loved the berry drink. I paid the check and then the guy asked if we were dining in or taking out; and I confirmed we would be dining in. This is where things went sideways. I completed my order at 12:03 but we didn't get our food until 12:25; then when we got our food, there were no drinks. I had to get up and line up to remind the cashier about the drinks. 22 minutes for these two dishes and then another three minute wait to get the drinks I ordered 25 minutes ago; that is overkill in my opinion. The whole process was confusing. I'm assuming the cashier was supposed to give us our drinks when I paid but he forgot. There was no explanation on how the process works. I assumed we would be called out by name, since he asked for my name while ringing up my order. The overall ambiance of the restaurant is nice. This was my first impression and though the lengthy delay and confusing experience didn't leave a great impression on me; the food was still tasty and if I do return, I will likely stick to take out.

I can't speak to the tacos sold at a place that does drinks as I haven't tried them, but I can say the following: Ambiance (3/5): Small but cute, they don't skimp on AC even as it's a sunny little shop. Great for studying if you're able to nab a seat; they have three tables that seat 4 (maybe 5 if you bunch up on the bench). The natural lighting makes it pretty nice to so some work in there. They have an extension cord with multiple outlets tucked in the corner under the corner table. Service (4/5): Server was friendly and quick. I'm glad he asked if regular milk was okay because it reminded me that it's not for my husband. It's a small thing but it's appreciated! I also loved the little surprise of getting some extra smoothie in a small cup, perfect for my daughter. Why can't other shops be like this? Appreciate it! Drink (4/5): The strawberry banana smoothies tasted fresh. Real fruit bits and not overly sweet or artificial tasting. My husband and I both noted that it had great flavor. My only gripe was that it was still a bit icy; it was hard at times sucking the smoothie out of the boba straw we used. If it were blended fully and smoothly, I would say it would be near perfect. Would we come back? Based on this experience, if we need a quick stop for a drink before the freeway, this makes for a good stop. I wouldn't mind trying out one of their match drinks next time (those look pretty good)!
