    Pastrami
    Scott S.

    Stopped by for a quick lunch. Had Hot Pastrami sandwich. Plenty of meat and service was fast. Too much mustard for my taste but if you like your bread painted with mustard this is the place.

    #6 Turkey, Ham, and Bacon
    Kyle V.

    Stopped in for a quick bite to eat before flying back home. Very convenient location to the airport and the food was quick! I went with the #6, which is ham, turkey, and bacon. I had them add everything except tomato's and onions. The bread was so soft and delicious and everything seemed so fresh. The prices were reasonable and the dining room was clean. This was a busy spot at lunch with a lot of regulars grabbing takeout orders or grabbing a seat. We will definitely be back.

    Meatball sandwich.  Super soft bread and big meaty meatballs!
    Roger S.

    Love coming here with co workers when I'm in town. I wish they had a small business like this in my city! Great sandwiches every time. Stop by and see for yourself!

    Normally this is my jam. Sometimes places have off days and I'm ok with that. Ordered a lettuce wrap and they didn't have full leaves but gave me my Sammy on a bed of lettuce 2 Thumbs up. Just a note: Please next time don't include the turkey rinds. They're hard and distasteful and I feel I don't get a full serving of turkey.

    The #5 the Italian bomber. Ham, salami, pepperoni, and pepperoncini.

    This place is tucked away in a business district but don't sleep on it! It is clean, quick, and service was great! After reading the reviews I went with the #5 the Italian bomber! I paid $14 for the chips, drink, and sandwich. The bread and meats were super fresh and great! I will have to try the turkey avocado next time. They have potato salad and macaroni salad as well and they cater! Give this local business a shot!

    Mostly pickle pastrami
    Bobbie J.

    Two large sliced pickles to start with came this way. Lots of bread. To start with, the bread is soft but should go with cold sandwiches, not hot pastrami that would go better with a French role. The pickles were thicker than the pastrami on the sandwiches ordered. The pastrami had good flavor. The price was good for what we got. The service was good and nice restaurant.

    Vegetarian
    Lisa G.

    Seriously do not understand how this place has over 4 stars. I tried once and it was good. I went back and it was terrible. I thought, maybe they had a bad day and my friends and I tried again....waste of money. Most recently we tried again (yesterday) and we are done! Look at my photo and see if this vegetarian looks like it's worth $10. Come one, how hard is it to put mayo mustard and veggies between bread....the sandwich was mostly bread and truly a disappointment. They clearly don't care about the customer, so 4 out of 4 of us will not recommend or return to this place. What a disappointment.

    #8 Turkey, Bacon, and Avocado Sub, side of potato salad
    Stephanie L.

    My 100th review HAS to go to my favorite local sandwich shop, Shorty's! Seriously, I crave Shorty's whenever I think about sandwiches- no one does it like them! I was first introduced to Shorty's when I started working nearby. They have a deal if you work in the area; a combo is $6-7 instead of regular price ($6-8 sandwich, add $2.50 to make it a combo)! A combo comes with the sandwich, chips/or Mac salad/potato salad, and a drink! This is a STEAL because the sandwiches are LOADED!! They don't skimp on the meat!! I get full off of half of the sandwich! My fave is the Italian bomber- ham, salami, pepperoni, and peppers. The BEST! The Turkey, Bacon, Avocado and the club are great as well! Really you can't go wrong with Shorty's!

    Meatball sub
    Lionel V.

    First time eating here and I ordered the meatball sub. I must say it was really good. I have heard so many good things about this place and finally got a chance to try it. A must try for sure.

    Ordered as part a group order. Specifically stated no tomato because of an allergy. It's written on the invoice and box. Opened up the sandwich and it had tomato. Ordered jalapeño chips and I received a small bag of Doritos. There were multiple issues with our order, so we will not be ordering from here again.

    Surprising good for a restaurant in an industrial park. My only complaint is that the bread, while good, is way to dense for my tastes.

I ended up getting the cinnamon roll and the pecan sticky bun and they were both spectacular! The cinnamon roll was one of the best I've had and I didn't even heat it up. The portions are also pretty large as I shared my 2 items with 4 people and we still didn't finish them. Service was great. They were nice about letting us take as much time as we needed to browse and once we were ready, it was really quick service. After you get your pastries boxed up, you can order a drink at the register. I just like black coffee and got a plain Brazilian cold brew which tasted like any other place but was still good. There's seating inside and outside. It wasn't too busy when I went on a Saturday around 12p. There were definitely plenty of seats left indoors and outdoors.

Even though the line was long right when they opened, it moved surprisingly fast. Everything smells so fresh when you walk in. I went specifically for the Ube Cheesecake Cruffin and the Mango Coconut Rice Pudding Danish and both were absolutely worth the wait. The pastries are fresh, beautifully made, and packed with flavor. If you're in the area, JL Patisserie is definitely a spot you don't want to miss!

Definitely prefer the Little Jerry's more cohesive bites of chicken and vodka sauce with the backend having pesto to pair. Wonderful taste and texture all throughout this sandwich. The Maestro was also great, but definitely gets a bit salty for me personally because of all the slices of assorted Italian cuts. Overall, a great sandwich spot (with more) to study at, bring friends to chat, or just enjoy a meal before checking out the Japanese Friendship Garden nearby!

The girl at the counter was beyond good customer service. Helped with the bread to choose and when I said everything she immediately asked about jalapeños sensing my appearance might require the question. It did. I laughed. A good sandwich can quickly be ruined by the bread but I think I got their house bread and it too was incredible. Thanks for a great lunch.

When I started at ASU back in 2014, I discovered Ike's as I was exploring Mill Avenue. Since then, Ike's has been among my favorite places for sandwiches. Although it is no longer on the menu, my favorite sandwich is the Steph Curry One, which features turkey, provolone cheese, and yellow BBQ sauce. I found out that even if something is not on the menu, they can still make it for you if you remember the combination. Some other sandwiches I like are the Hunter Pence and the Steve Nash. The service is friendly, and they are more than happy to offer suggestions on what sandwich to choose, as they have an excellent selection of sandwiches. I also like the atmosphere. It is nice and colorful, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy your food. Ike's is also a great place to go if you need to eat on the run. Once, I had to take my sandwich to go. Upon ordering it, they had it ready with plenty of time to spare. I also like that they have a rewards program. I highly recommend Ike's Love and Sandwiches to anyone who is looking for a great sandwich on Mill Avenue.
