Wonderful sandwich shop. The staff was incredibly nice, food was great, and the wait was adequate.Quality of the food is excellent, lots of options to choose from including vegetarian and vegan. They even have sour dough bread which is dope.Staff is incredibly nice, the price was great considering how expensive everything else is around here lol.Worth stopping by if in the area, maybe even worth the extended trip if you're a ways out. Also lots of parking and wheelchair accessible.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp from parking lot for accessiblity

Food was good. Decent selection of vegan sandwiches as well. They also have Zapps chips which is fun. The location is a bit wonky in terms of parking and the lot is small. The staff was friendly but the wait was fairly long and seemingly impossible to gauge due to online orders. We'll be back!Dietary restrictions: Vegan sandwiches

Sandwiches are always great but Cheyenne (I believe that was her name) deserves a promotion. Always has a great attitude and works really hard.

The first time I came here I was mesmerized by my sandwich. I ordered the almost a vegetarian sandwich and it was quite delicious. The staff was quick and even offered me a lollipop with my sandwich. I haven't tried any other sandwiches- since the first I tried is super bomb. I like how they have indoor and some outdoor seating.

As a lover of hot sandwiches, I like this place in principle but I have yet to be truly inspired in practice. The sandwiches never seem quite hot enough, and tepid is...meh. The house "crunchy" bread has a top that sometimes crackles nicely, other times lands in the wrong place. They have bottled drinks, but the soda machine seems permanently out to lunch. Staff is usually very friendly and accommodating; I have been there maybe 5-6 times. On my last visit, though, we were advised we would have to wait fifteen minutes because the three staffers were "working on a catering order." I couldn't quite understand why *one* of them couldn't tend to the two parties of clients waiting while the other two continued to work on the big order. After 18 minutes, we did finally get our sandwiches, but the experience left me questioning whether I will return.

Never ordered from there before. Got a Matt Cain on Dutch Crunch bread. Excellent! Not sure what Godfather sauce it, but was very good.

The name lead me to believe I might get a little something extra with my sandwich, if you know what I mean (wink wink, tug tug?). But they are all so nice and the sandwiches are delicious!

No Apple Pay or chip reader. Cashier typed in Amex card wrong and didn’t put 4 digit code. Get a modern cash register

The service was soooo slow!The descriptions of each sandwiches had some sort of sauce, none of them described what was in the sauce.Never going back.

Lucky #13 on my quest to visit as many unique Ike's locations as possible brought me to one of the best cities in California - Santa Barbara After striking out and getting to the Templeton location after they closed the night before I was not going to drive 410 miles round trip without Ike's in my belly Walking into this location my first thought was - damn this feels like a Subway. I gotta assume it once was. Pretty cool setup as you can watch the sandwich making magic at this location much easier than most. Before I talk about the food - let's talk about the staff working around 12:30 on July 16th. Part of what makes Ike's so amazing is those who they employ. It was busy and a large party came in after us. I don't want to use the word difficult but some of them were very confused and others had very valid concerns about food allergies. I saw two staff members who after a while had every right to be frustrated continue to help this party out with love and kindness. You don't see this at many places these days but Ike's staff are always top notch. Perhaps the best thing about striking out in Templeton was the massive menu at this location. I finally got to try the SF Giants (hard to find this living in Dodgers territory) and it tasted as amazing as fall 2010. Also got to try the Clemson Tigers (no feelings about them) and that was also just fierce and delicious and damn I want another right now.Not sure where stop 14 will take me but I can't wait for my next incredible Ike's experience
