My roommate has been trying to get me to come to Ike's since I moved in with her. We finally made the trek over to Mill to try it out and my life was changed!
As an aspiring vegan, it can be pretty difficult to find satisfying, hearty meals that fit my dietary restrictions. I'm a sucker for a good sub, but that almost always requires some form of meat, cheese, or dairy/egg-based sauce. NO LONGER, MY FRIENDS.
Ike's has sooo many vegan options (or vegetarian which can be turned vegan). And they are so chock full of goodness that you don't feel like you're depriving yourself. Everything on their menu is very well-labeled too so you know exactly what you're getting when you order.
I chose the Sometimes-I'm-A-Vegetarian (ain't that the truth) and altered it to be vegan (took off the cheese). It. Was. Delicious. Their bread is probably the best part--super thick and somehow both crunchy and doughy. The sandwiches are huge, so you really get your money's worth.
The staff was so friendly, I wish I could recall the name of my cashier because he was really great and helpful in offering suggestions. We came in 10 minutes to close and I didn't feel like we were being rushed out.
'Would definitely visit again, way better than any chain sandwich store I've tasted. Oh, and the complimentary sucker with your order is a fancy touch too.
