Ike's

Had a great business dinner here with colleagues. We were seated quickly, and service at the table was quick and pleasant. All three of us really enjoyed our meals. I had the Tuna Melt and it was excellent, with crisp toast (not soggy) and fresh tasting real tuna. Also had some great cocktails & drinks, very nicely mixed dirty Martini comparable to anything I have had at 3x the cost in LA or NYC. Nicely designed & managed restaurant, will definitely be back. Music, food, drinks and ambiance, all just wonderful. Great place.

A group of us went to the Bloomington location for dinner. Got seated right before 6pm, which is when happy hour ends. Our server got us a round before it ended which was very nice. We decided on burgers, which they are well known for. We all tried something different, all were done just right with a side of slaw and chips. They have a nice menu and a Sunday brunch. I would definitely stop again.

The food and service was ok for brunch. But even though the menu said seconds are included they were going to charge an extra $10 for more caramel rolls. Gave a lame excuse because they cost a lot to make. I bake and know that is not true. They also charged a default %20 tip due to our group having 9 people. Nowhere was this posted and the restaurant was pretty empty. Not overly impressed.

Disappointed! This is NOT the same Ike's as it was a year or so ago! No more oysters for one, sadly. The ONLY steak option on the menu is a sirloin steak, yes 1 steak option. For being in an office building, I'd hate to have a business dinner or lunch here. My Seafood Louie salad seemed like something I'd expect at Applebee's or worse; iceberg lettuce (with some of the chunks from the core), literally a handful (5-6 pieces) of spinach, 3 shrimp and the crab was minced so much it was like sawdust - pretty sure it's from a can. Would NOT recommend that salad especially at $21, definitely overpriced. Surprisingly, the sliced avocado on the salad was perfectly ripe though. Happy Hour drink prices are decent, fyi. The bartender was attentive and friendly; however, I had to ask what their Happy Hour specials covered (she didn't offer). And then when I didn't see the Happy Hour appetizer options on the main menu, I once again had to ask her about those, in which she then handed me the Happy Hour food menu. I shouldn't have to ask for these things at 4:30pm. My husband's patty-melt and fries were 'fine' but the side of coleslaw tasted rancid. Doubt we'll ever go back here unless some major food changes happen.

Hate the management as there was only one server at entire place who was serving food for all the tables. She is quite in hurry but I don’t blame her. Its a management responsibility to have at least more than one server to serve the good customer service. Although Love the food, food was on time, quantity was good but expensive: $17.00. It was Salmon B.L.T.
