I live in Tucson, but every time I come to Phoenix I make sure to eat at Ike's. The first thing I noticed during my first visit was how extraordinary the service as (and this isn't even a dine-in place). The guy behind the counter greeted us genuinely and everyone else working seemed happy to be there. After we put in our order, we ended up talking to the cashier for like 30 more minutes! Every interaction is genuine and enthusiastic, which is really something unique.
And goodness...the sandwiches. I was so impressed with how many options there were for people of all different diets. Halal chicken, vegetarian, vegan, and plenty for meat lovers. The options are literally endless. The sandwiches are HUGE and make my heart happy. And to top it off, they give you free caramel apple lollipops! What an awesome little perk.
Overall, if you live in the Phoenix area you MUST try eating here.
