Natalie MJune 1, 2015Come hungry and leave w/ your mind blown. The secret sauce is a must. Use the app to order ahead & skip the line! Do not get the mozzarella sticks. They get soggy fast & turn to mush in your sandwich
Stephanie LivingstonAugust 2, 2015The long lines are worth the wait. Not all sandwiches are on the board. Look online at the menu. WiFi was available so you look at the menu while you wait if you want. Order ahead faster pick up.
"[Name Of Girl I'm Dating]" aka "Bella" has been taken off the menu, but it's still available! Halal chicken, avocado, pepper jack, honey mustard. And get it on your birthday, for free!
Lindsay RoseFebruary 23, 2015Greatest sandwich you will ever eat in your life. Lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Be cool with waiting a bit and taking your food somewhere else to eat it, though. Worth it!
Danielle HowellOctober 22, 2015Got the Menage a Trois. You know those annoying commercials where the model takes a bite of something and their eyes get all big because it's that good? My face did that. I felt it happening. So good.
Jesus DominguezAugust 24, 2013Best sandwiches ever!!! Be sure to try the Kryptonite its amazing, and is big enough to share with someone, and also the menu its only 1/10 of what they have, you can ask for recommendations- The Tastes that Make the CityJanuary 28, 2015The bella (nee: name of the girl i'm dating) is the best sandwich in SF, making our list of "The Tastes That Make the City: SF Edition."

Yotam TroimApril 3, 2015Tried two vegetarian sandwiches: Handsome Owl and Meatless Mike. They were both fantastic.
The secret is in the sauce. Bitterly, this place creates better sandwiches than I could ever put together myself. The CA-BLT is the best.
Serious EatsOctober 16, 2013The lines are long but the sandwiches are good. Anything with their hand-pulled roasted chicken is great. Avoid the flavored sodas.
Aly OradyJanuary 6, 2015Hot Mama Huda is my fav - but check the website for the full menu. You won't find the full listing in the store... It's over 100 long!
Sandwiches are generally extraordinary and come with chips. Can get very busy during lunch periods. Dutch crunch is very good bread
Dale TegmanJune 5, 2012Past home to "Joseph Schmidt's." A Holocaust survivor who made chocolate sculptures, Schmidt sold his specialty chocolate shop after Hershey's purchased his brand for over 30 million dollars!
Mike BApril 4, 2013The Menage a Trois: Chicken with three cheeses and three sauces. Add pickles and dirty sauce (and nothing else) for the perfect balance of incredible flavors. Then nap for an hour.
Christine SaddulOctober 14, 2012The Lincecum sandwich is SO GOOD! And their Leninade soda is wonderful. Their potato chips are just ridiculously tasty. What a great place!
Ben DruckerOctober 10, 2015Gluten free bread from Mariposa, menu online specifies other GF ingredients. And they ask at the checkout whether it's a preference or Celiac. 👌
David OrtizMay 14, 2011Get the "Just Friends" with cucumbers, so amazing - Or the Damon Bruce (throw a little avocado on their for tasty) The service here is always 5 star. awesome people.
Kevin RipperApril 8, 2015The best turkey I've had between two pieces of bread or even outside of that. Dutch crunch is the bread you should be getting
Alice LouieSeptember 29, 2013The Sometimes I'm a Vegetarian is one of the best veggie sandwiches that I've tasted!
Santiago DuarteSeptember 5, 2014Incredible sandwiches. they are all good. Creative and fun place. Try the menage a trois.
Joanna FlammJanuary 18, 2015Order your giant sandwich ahead and skip the line. Didn't order ahead? That's ok, the line moves pretty fast.
Andrew CAugust 24, 2014The line here is nuts. One bite of their sandwiches explains why. Smart people jump the line by calling their order in. Be a smart person.
Jimmy LuAugust 6, 2014Meatless Mikes all the way, for the vegetarians. Don't forget to get the Dutch crunch roll for the sandwich
Elizabeth BarelliJuly 25, 2013Good sandwiches, BLT had great dressing. But portions are huge, which makes it difficult to eat... nice to go during the week, but I wouldn't wait 1h in line on the week end...
Brian LApril 5, 2015Spiffy Tiffy (chicken, avocado, mushrooms, pesto) is my favorite pick up and go to Dolores Park sandwich.
mariposa baking co. - oaklandApril 24, 2012Find delicious gluten-free sandwiches made on Mariposa Baking's rustic gluten-free baguette and served at Ike's SF, SF State, Oakland Uptown & Cupertino locations!
Wil StevensSeptember 17, 2013Hella. Dank. Good. Good vibes. Great which. Veggie, vegan, gluten free. Whatever. Deliciousness!
the halal chicken in the sandwich is absolutely delicious. so are the dutch crunch rolls
Andrew FafoutakisFebruary 1, 2015Great sandwiches. Best idea is to order ahead and pick up to avoid the lines.
Lee HoffmanFebruary 1, 2013The go home thanksgiving sandwich is amazing. Get it on the crunchy bread. Yum.
Nick TaraJanuary 19, 2013Christina & Megan are the coolest ! Very helpful and quick even with the preparation of the biggest munching sandwich on the menu - the Kryptonite
Genevieve RiceJune 26, 2011Try one of the many terrific vegetarian or vegan options such as The Pilgrim -- vegan turkey, cranberry sauce, havarti (or soy cheese), and sriracha.
JennyAugust 28, 2015Check out the giant "secret" menu online. Also is not cash only but they offer an incentive (tiny discount) if you do pay in cash- Kunal PatelMarch 19, 2016Great vegetarian options, which can usually be made vegan if you ask as well.
Chloe CondonApril 18, 2016Ménage a tios with no lettuce and tomato, add jalapeños. Use the app the order ahead if you're in a hurry!
Ben CochranAugust 6, 2014Elvis Keith, substitute fried chicken, dutch crunch, no additions. It’s all you need.
Ally MSeptember 13, 2015The ménage a tois is an amazing combination of flavors!! Get the Dutch crunch bread
Chris GoldenJanuary 19, 2015The "sometimes I'm a vegetarian" with avocado is amazing. Plus the freebies change all the time
Tez AndersonSeptember 3, 2012I love the Paul Rubens. Everything here is great except the wait. Go at off hours. Be prepared to stand in a cue.
Jeremiah JohnsonApril 30, 2013Great sandwiches. Big in size and decent priced. I would come back again. No Seating anywhere.
Melissa TsangNovember 3, 2014Elvis Keith + Ike's famous Dutch crunch bread + all other ingredients (free upon request) = A++
Name Of The Girl I'm Dating plus double extra bacon is called the Ex-girlfriend; it's pretty divine.
cyn kDecember 29, 2012go simple- they're so intense. halal chicken with artichoke is a fave of mine. and order ahead!
Jill PrimostJuly 9, 2013secret menu sandwich - mr. sannderson: avocado, bacon, lettuce, tomato, mozzarella sticks. get it with ranch.
Mikahla VicinoNovember 26, 2015A sandwich worth the hype and the wait. Caramel apple lollipop tops it all off.
