Went to check out Ike's with a restaurant com gift certificate that we had gotten free. Â Over all an okay experience, just not noteworthy in anyway. Â Waitress was friendly, but she admitted she was new at Ike's and it showed. Â Food came pretty slowly, but not obnoxiously slow. Â Food was unremarkable. Â
Ordered Prime Rib which was a "special", it was cool, not juicy, and I think it was just warmed up. Â The mashed potatoes could have used some more mashing, and no butter or gravy came with. Â
When the bill came it was a shocker. Â The "special" I ordered was nearly $4 more than quoted but corrected, the meal my wife ordered was $3 more than the menu showed, and the milk's we though were included in the kids meal (menu says small drinks included) were not.
Will we be back? Â Maybe. Â Certainly without a gift certificate of some type not, with one maybe. Â It would only be if we were looking for something different and were looking for a casual relaxed local place. Would I recommend Ike's to a friend? Â I wouldn't suggest someone go, but not tell them not to.
I wish I liked this place more than I did. Â The waitstaff was very nice and friendly, though they made some mistakes on our order. Â No big deal and quickly fixed. Â The food tasted fine but I'm not sure how they prepare the dishes because some of the food on all of our plates was warm, some cold. Â The hash browns were pretty consistently cold for people.
While there was nothing glaring that made us run from the place, I think most of us wouldn't go back.
