Had dinner here today and was thoroughly pleased. It's a small little sandwich shop but they have a pretty good menu of sandwiches, salads and pizzas. I had the Smoked Brisket Sandwich and a cup of delicious Clam Chowder. My cousin had the Double Pesto Chicken. We both enjoyed them very much. Lots of meat on some delicious sourdough rolls. Our server Lewis was great. The Restaurant is located in the Crystal Springs Plaza near CVS. Give them a try you won't be disappointed. read more

Every time I order online, I get a Garlic pesto Sandwich, and every time, they forget to put pesto. I really don't get it. It's my fault for not checking, but really, it's every single time! When I go in and order, it's fine, but it takes a while. What's the point for online ordering when it's wrong every time. read more

We ordered catering for $800, which included 72 sandwiches. The bread was fresh, and all condiments were provided separately to keep the sandwiches from getting soggy. The owner was very accommodating -- I texted in the order, and it was processed quickly. They fulfilled our special requests for utensils, napkins, and even provided separate boxes just for pickles. Pickup was ready early in the morning, and everything was neatly packed and organized. Guests loved the food! * "Great bread -- super fresh!" * "The pickles were so crisp!" * "That house sauce was delicious!" Everything was beautifully done and made our son's birthday lunch a hit. Highly recommended for catering! read more

We came in to pick up sandwiches for a quiet Saturday night dinner at home. We were pleasantly surprised at how perfectly crunchy, soft and flavorful the sourdough bread was, even at the end of the day. One of us had the pastrami Reuben and the other had the turkey sandwich. We liked the three size options since I wasn't as hungry getting over a cold, and the smallest size was just right. We also had a cup of the vegetable soup which we both enjoyed. We saw someone come in and pick up a loaf of the sourdough bread to take home which we will definitely be trying along with their cookies. Pros: Friendly service, delicious sandwiches and sourdough bread, and what looked to be a very clean establishment Cons: NA read more

Have I been living under a rock because sandwiches are crazy expensive now! I had a $2 off coupon and was in the mood for something light, so decided to venture out here for a sando. I opted for the Caprese ($13.99 for a 6") and it is TINY. They didn't ask if I wanted it hot or cold, and it just came out toasted by default... I would have preferred it cold. In my mind, I don't associate anything Caprese with warm or toasted. Even Caprese salads are a cold dish by default. Also, they didn't give me the side pickle. Not sure if that's a default option, but as I was reviewing the charges on the screen, I noticed that it said "no side pickle." I corrected the cashier because my fiancé enjoys them, and it was a fairly easy fix. Just keep an eye out so you don't get disappointed if one doesn't end up in your order! Sandwich was just average. I think the Caprese sandwiches at Whole Foods are superior and it's also slightly cheaper. The sourdough bread though was actually pretty decent, so it was really the only saving grace. read more

Great spot to grab a bite to eat. Bread was really fresh, service could be faster. But a lot of the customers seemed to be regulars and not in a rush at all. We got a grilled chicken caesar salad and a bbq chicken flat bread. Both tasted ok. I was wrong to assume grilled chicken would be chunky pieces of chicken. But it was more like deli chicken meat. Flatbread portion was on the smaller side. We saw someone getting chili in a bowl and we wish we had gotten that instead. Maybe next time. read more

Unfortunately, we would not go here again. We ordered a Ham & Turkey Sandwich with extra meat and the Southwest Chicken Salad. Sandwich: Good bread Little to no meat, even though we asked for extra on the order. Salad: Basically $14 for a bowl romaine as there were hardly any toppings. Maybe a tablespoon of black beans and corn and a dusting of tortilla strips. Way overpriced for what we got. Grocery store salads have more toppings. Such a bummer. read more

I wanted to love this place because sourdough is my favorite kind of bread especially when it's freshly baked. I ordered the turkey and cranberry with added avocado. The bread was definitely delicious. It had just the right amount of chewiness to it and a slight crust on top. Unfortunately, the rest of the sandwich ingredients were very average with not much flavor. I mostly just tasted the bread. There was also no cranberry in the sandwich which may have elevated the taste a bit. I ended up adding my own pepper, pickles, and hot sauce when I got home. The folks running the store were very nice, but the sandwich was unremarkable and on the small size. read more

They are located in a side area in the Crystal Springs Center, but the soughdough is very fresh and tasty with the sandwich. I didn't get the cheese that comes with the French dip so the picture looks smaller than a regular sandwich. They have a 6" inch online but you can ask for an 8" in the store. The food is very tasty and the French dip is one of the best I have had. The flat bread is crunchy and tasty and you can even adjust all the toppings and the sauce.

The restaurant has always been nice and clean when I've stopped by, which has been often because I LOVE their Artichoke Flatbread pizza! Seriously, it's that good. I've also had the Caesar Salad which was also very good (the small was a very generous size) and it came with a couple of slices of their bread which wasn't bad.

Tiny little baby deli on the edge of Belmont and San Carlos border, nice peeps serving up some seriously nice quality deli goodness.

Recommendation, get the sammie as they serve it for the Big Mac replica effect. There are Sanburgers 1-5. The one I ordered is 2, roast beef. They melt the American cheese on the sliced roast beef, then placed on the sesame seeded bun with shredded lettuce, mustard, MO's special sauce and lots of lovin'. When I took my first bite, I said out loud, "Am I eating a Big Mac?!" Very creative are these folks. The chocolate croissant speaks for itself. It's fully loaded flaky croissant goodness and it's huge! Head over to Mo's for an excellent sammie experience! Plan for to-go as it is very tiny, however, there are tables and outside area, too. The location used to be a Subway for years. Very nice new flavor in town. I believe they opened in 2024. I will definitely return!

Service was line style, and moved relatively slow in my experience because a lot of customers were customizing their sandwiches pretty heavily. Service is really friendly though.

M Sandwiches

M sandwiches pleasantly surprised me with its warm crusty bread, crisp tender bbq pork, and fresh cilantro and pickled veggies. The place is tiny - really no seating indoors and just a few chairs outside - but I'm adding this spot to my regular to-go rotation. I love that they give you potato chips with every sandwich, and unwrapping every sandwich that has the twine tied around it feels like you are unbundling a treasure. One tip - I thought the grilled lemongrass beef sandwich would be similar to the bbq pork one, but the beef was more like a meatloaf. Still good! Just not what I was expecting.

I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately my experience was very disappointing…read more I ordered the grilled pork bánh mì from this place earlier. I was hungry and started eating the sandwich while walking, but after just a few bites I had to throw it away. The grilled pork was unbelievably salty--easily one of the saltiest bánh mì fillings I've ever had. It tasted like the meat had been heavily over-seasoned with salt, to the point where that was the only flavor I could taste. The sandwich was also loaded with mayonnaise, which made it feel very heavy and greasy. Combined with the salty pork, it ended up tasting like mostly fat and salt. The bread didn't seem particularly fresh or house-made either, which made the overall experience even more disappointing given the price. I hate leaving negative reviews, but for the cost and quality, this was not a sandwich I could finish, let alone enjoy.

This will be an unorthodox first review. I wanted to try out this place advertised on Too Good To…read moreGo which was for a sopresa (surprise). I'm going to review the food here as if this is what I intended to order, not my TGTG experience. I got an 8-inch pastrami sandwich and a romaine lettuce garden salad. Pastrami sandwich had good quality and tasty dutch crust bread. There was a generous amount of meat. I didn't like the American cheese. I would never order it at a restaurant for a sandwich; it's for grilled cheese or burgers (and even then I avoid). The sandwich had mayo and chopped lettuce. Overall, the sandwich was good - a neatly done, standard cold pastrami sandwich with good bread. The salad had nice presentation: fresh, chopped romaine, carrot sticks, sliced purple onion, cherry tomatoes, and dressing). But again, it was a standard salad I could make at home. We arrived from 101N to El Camino which required an unprotected left on 21st so I recommend a different route. There was ample parking. The location looks kind of industrial, which can have its own charm - sort of like NY vibes. The entrance looked like a backdoor entrance and there didn't appear to be restaurant seating - no tables and chairs. There was a chair, but not for eating at. Or maybe I missed it if there was an area to eat. From my first experience, this seems like a takeout hole-in-the-wall. It reminded me of a bakery in Modesto that was known only by word-of-mouth which only had take-out baked goods. I docked a star because it currently does not have an ADA-compliant entrance. They could install a ramp or maybe a button for service and a sign with braille if it's just a take-out place. Why does it matter? It's federal law. Any business open to the public must be accessible to people disabilities. Otherwise, that's discrimination against people with disabilities and you can be sued if you are non-compliant. I had family who became wheelchair-bound so it's something that I take notice of. I plan on returning to try out the Peruvian offerings.

I ordered a bowl of soup thinking it would be a decent portion, but it was $11 and the "bowl" was basically the size of a cup you'd get at most other places. It definitely didn't feel worth the price at all. I get that prices have gone up everywhere, but the portion just didn't match what I paid. For $11, I expected something more filling, not something that felt like a small side. The food itself was okay, but nothing special enough to justify the cost. Unfortunately, this was my first time here and it will probably be my last. There are plenty of other spots that offer better portions and value for the same price.

I really enjoyed the sandwich and the garlic spread, so while I usually go for the Dutch crunch, the sourdough bread might be my new favorite at Ike's.

It's family style so you can share amongst each other and it's a bit expensive but come with a big group and it's so worth it. When you walk inside, it honestly is so beautiful. They have a table where the fish are swimming on it. They have a huge screen with art constantly changing. The aesthetic cannot be beat, even walking to the bathroom had a pretty cool hallway. Usually places with a gorgeous aesthetic like this I get concerned that the food is not gonna be good, but I've got to say I am pleasantly surprised that is not the case. The food was actually pretty fire and service was good. I would only go back with a big group because this is very much a collective family style experience. Gets 5 stars from me!

Bánh Hỏi Sharing Set came with vermicelli, lettuce, pickles, and fish sauce. We chose the grilled pork sausage, roasted pork belly, and sugarcane shrimp. Everything was delicious except for the roasted pork belly, which lacked the crispy skin we hoping for. Grilled Eggplant was pretty bland and mediocre. Holy Prawns with Vermicelli was my favorite dish. The vermicelli soaked up all the prawn juices, making it even better than the prawns. We also ordered the 5-Spice Chicken with Garlic Noodles ($32). The garlic noodles were satisfying, but the chicken tasted like an ordinary rotisserie chicken. I don't think this dish worth the price. Pork Ribs with Coconut Sticky Rice and Pickled Carrot was another disappointment. The ribs were tough and didn't easily pull away from the bone, making them difficult to eat. The coconut sticky rice, was surprisingly delicious For drinks, we tried the Cà Phê Trio, which included Corn Milk Coffee, Salted Vietnamese Coffee, and Pistachio Coffee, all served in cute little jugs, none of the three really stood out. Pandan Coffee was also underwhelming. Other than its green color, it tasted just like a regular Vietnamese coffee, with very little pandan flavor. Service was disappointing. Since we ordered many dishes to share, our plates quickly filled up with rib bones and prawn shells. We asked a waiter to replace our plates, and although he nodded, he never came back. We eventually had to ask another server. Overall, the food was hit or miss. A few dishes were enjoyable, while others were not, and the prices were higher than what the quality justified.
