“Superb friendly staff! And the cakes are delicious! We got passion fruit cake and pistachio - raspberry cake. They are beautiful, delicate, and sophisticated! I love their small pastries like financier as well. The croissant and puffed pastries are a bit too dry for me. Still it is better beyond average puffed pastries. Definitely want to try other items!“

They have always been upfront about their menu and service. Even if they are busy they tell me and I don’t care about waiting I know it will be worth the wait. Thank you Krua Thai Gregg“

“The food here was very good! My buddy and I were on a trip and it was so good that we ate here two days in a row. Everything tasted very fresh and the portions were big but not too much. The atmosphere is casual but very nice and clean. The staff were friendly albeit a bit forgetful. Our waiter forgot to bring us an extra plate both days… also, the price is a little expensive, but for Northern California it wasn’t egregious. I’d certainly recommend this restaurant and would be excited to come back again.“

“Delicious toasted subs! I had high expectations upon viewing the menu online and Ike's did not disappoint! The steak sub I had, the Bumgarner, reminded me of a spicy update of Quizno's at their prime. Often times, steak at places like Jersey Mike's tastes like refrigerator-burnt Steak-Ums, but this steak wasn't fakin'! My life is severely lacking in tasty toasted subs lately, so today's visit temporarily filled the void. Note to management: PLEASE open a location in the Inland Empire!“

We ordered takeaway and even though they were busy, it was ready in 10 mins. Service was excellent, they threw in the ciabatta and virgin olive oil for free as they didn't have garlic bread. First time here, wish we lived here, but sadly just passing through.“
