IKES DUTCH CRUNCH BREAD FULL
Ike's is a quick service restaurant, as you order at the register and your sandwiches are made in full view of customers. They have been here for almost a year now, and have gotten plenty of love from Yelp, with a four and a half star rating with over 150 reviews. Ike's is situated in the old Capriotti's location at the ever changing District at Tustin Legacy shopping complex.
