IKE'S?

>>9202016
Can't say that I have but that photo isn't at all appealing. In fact it looks some someone took a shit on a roll and covered it in ranch.

I'm looking at their menu, pretty fucking expensive. What sandwich is that picture?

>>9202053
yeah that is one of the things throwing me off. about 9-10 bucks a sandwich. I'm in northern California by the way and in Berkeley there doesn't seem to be a decent sandwich shop.

I have no idea but I saw they have a sandwich called the LEX LUTHOR that's priced at 40 dollars

my ex was from Northen Cali. I went to visit with her once and she told me about all these "amazing" places to eat. Went to some deli in Palo Alto she wouldn't shut up about. Paid good money for a mediocre sandwich. I guess there was a sentimental aspect to her praising the deli because it's what she grew up with but it wasn't anything special. Sometimes I think people equate more expensive=better

How's Berkeley? There's some really good food if you head in to San Fran I can say that for sure.

yeah, I mean same thing happened to me. a couple places I absolutely swore by seemingly taste like dogshit according to my friends/exes.

that's definitely the vibe I get here. some of the worst food I've had and I can't figure it out until I've already spent 13.50 on a giant bland burrito. can't find decent Mexican food/wings up here. hell of a lot of garlic this and that thanks to Gilroy.

and now im just deciding on maybe buying some things to try my luck and make something like an Italian sub. recommendations?

i was visiting san fran and saw the grand opening of an IKE's where the line stretched outside and around the block, idk apparently some people love it.

I grew up in Berkeley.
If you want great Mexican, find this little bar in Albany called The Hotsy-Totsy and hit up the taco truck that parks outside in the late afternoon/evening. During the day they're in some part of Oakland that's not worth going into if you're not known there. Christopher's is a more expensive but solid option a few blocks down from Hotsy-Totsy. I remember liking their fajitas a lot when I was 12 or 13.
Can't help you on wings particularly.
One of Berkeley's better food memes is Top Dog. Go in there, get a calabrese, and smother the motherfucker in saurkraut. Like 4 bucks for a high-tier hot sausage.

To OP's question: The great thing about Ike's is that I can find their menu online, copy most of it, and get really good inspiration for quality sandwiches that don't cost half as much as some bullshit at Ike's.

Montague's.

+1 for Hotsy Totsy and the truck. Bring cash.

Summer here is the worst, J-1 Irish chads and everyone (interns and summer students alike) are tourists.

Not impressed. Expensive, not too much filling and mediocre ingredients at best. Plus it's run by muslims, or at least halal and thus a good reason not to eat there.

What is on that?
It looks like chicken finger and steak we call that a stinger here in Buffalo
