Reviews for Ike's Lair of Redwood City in Redwood City, CA
Great sandwiches across the board! The bread clearly isn't made fresh in-house, but it's still good. Their vegetarian sandwiches... remind me that vegetarian doesn't have to mean "bland health food". Wish we had more places like this! Read more
The sandwiches are delicious, makes me to keep coming back and I will. Placed an order for a Say Hey with marinara sauce and... extra bacon and it was ready when I went to pick it up. Simply savory when biting into it. Not a whole lot of parking due to howtightly packed it is, especially when they get busy. Read more
We went to this Ike's before a football game. Have been to a few of them in the area. This one is by far the best! Both... sandwiches well built. Staff was very busy with to go orders, but sandwiches came out quickly and they took he time to buildthem the right way. There was a homeless man that came in wanting a soda, the owner treated him with respect and quickly helphim get what he wanted and included a sandwich too, very thoughtful! Will for sure go back when in the area. Read more
My Foxy Boxy sandwich promised horseradish sauce and did not disappoint! Serious bite you only expect at home :-) The youthful... cashier wasn't the most welcoming, but everyone else seemed pretty nice. Local feel, with halal chicken offerings, too. Read more
When this place only had a few spots, they were good but now that there are locations popping up everywhere, they seem like a... chain restaurant and the quality has gone down. I got the vegetarian sandwich and it was just ok. I was disappointed that theyused those little frozen soy nuggets you can get from the grocery store in the frozen aisle. No seasoning. Just sauce slatheredon with lettuce and tomato. The sourdough bread is always good. My fiance got a vegetarian sandwich and he said the bbq was toosweet and tasted more like sugar than bbq. It was really messy too, way too much sauce dumped on. His had the same little frozennuggets too. If I'm paying that much for a sandwich, it better be decent at least. Read more
This is one of the larger Ike's sandwiches location. It's clean and the staff are friendly and make the sandwiches quickly. My... only complaint is that there's no parking in the area but this is a common problem with Redwood City downtown in general. One ofmy favorite sandwich spots! Read more
I came into Ike's and my fiancé and I shared two sandwiches. The service was good, the sandwiches were good. The ambience is a... bit lacking and could be improved (larger tables perhaps). The parking situation is horrible, I would encourage them(employees/owner) to have dedicated parking elsewhere and so the front spaces in front are left for customers (I witnessed twoemployees leaving, both of whom were parked in the prime spots right in front). The chicken could have also been warmed up onthe sandwiches. Finally, prices could be a little lower and/or they especially shouldn't nickel and dime (or two quarter, as thecase may be) for things such as a cucumber on a sandwich. Read more
If you want to order don?t call because they don?t pick up the phone nor order on line because there is an error. And once... you get to the the place they take for ever to make a sandwich. Bad experience. Read more
