BLAND FLAVORLESS NOTHING
Can’t recommend this place.
Let me make this clear before I continue. The staff is great, they were totally cool with me, friendly and helpful. This has nothing to do with the staff or how they prepare the sandwiches.
The ingredients IB’s is using are substandard. I’ve worked in the restaurant business for 35 years and I know, when substandard ingredients are being used.
The sweet peppers have no flavor at all, the cheese has no sharpness, the buns are bland and the meat is either under seasoned or just doesn’t have a lot of flavor. These are the hallmarks of restaurants that source all of the ingredients from one company and the company kind of just throws them together to make a profit.
I drove 50 mi, because I had heard it was a great cheesesteak, and I am a fanatic for great cheesesteaks, and got a large one to share with my buddies, and what I got was a bland, bland, bland. No flavor, no sharpness, no cut.
You know that when a cheesesteak is properly constructed and still has no flavor, it has nothing to do with the staff, it has to do with where the owner is sourcing the ingredients from, and the ingredients suck. Okay I feel bad for the staff there, having to work with those ingredients. It’s probably going to cost them in the long run, because cutting corners like that, will lessen your business in an area where people want strong flavors.
Anyway the staff was totally cool, I didn’t mind the price for the gigantic sandwich, but the experience was just boring, and bland, and no flavor.
Anyway, I wish I could send a better report, I hope they do better maybe I’ll give it another chance at another time, but probably not if it’s going to be like this.
I’m sure the management is going to respond to this with some cookie cutter response, not taking responsibility, because people that take responsibility for their food, don’t work with food like this. It looks like they’ve gotten in trouble with dozens of people before, and apparently the sale from the old owner has resulted in not only poor quality ingredients, but also poor quality responses.

They make a damn good hoagie picked one up while I was in the area.
Great service and easy to order. You know the ingredients are fresh and ready to go.
Parking is a bit of a hassle but there’s street if you could find it or a parking structure nearby.

Their Surf N Turf cheesesteak is so FIRE! Would highly recommend trying this if it’s your first time. We also tried the truffle cheesesteak but that one was okay.

Swung by randomly when I happened to telly my next-door neighbor we were on the way to Oakland. He said it was worth the diversion to Berkeley and he was right! Been 25 years since I’ve had a cheesesteak and it’s thr best one I’ve ever had.

food is hot and fresh you just need regular, it’s big enough no need for a large, For the steak sandwiches I ordered it just with cheese onions, sweet peppers and mushrooms.No need for the other stuff

Delicious burgers and fries and they also have a lot of other menu items I haven’t tried. The one downside is no seating but there are plenty of places to sit down nearby in Berkeley

Sandwiches and staff at the Berkeley store are fine; unfortunately, their online service is horrible, and they work in mafia style. I made an order tonight for my son on their website. I selected delivery, and they gave me different dashers. Then, I selected DoorDash I paid the money for the sandwich and the dasher’s cost plus tip for the dasher.
within seconds, they sent me a receipt. They said we would notify you when your pickup order is ready.
Still, their receipt shows the delivery cost, and they changed the dasher’s tip to the kitchen tip. I try to call, the store has a telephone number, but a human will not answer you ever. I take uber to reach the store to pick up the order.

IB’s service are horrible and works like mifia style when you dealing online order. Be carefully if you made online order and some thing go wrong you will not able to call them through telephone because the phone number appeared in their profile is fake connected AI. Secondly owner/s will charge you delivery charge of the order you requested to be delivery but when you paid money online you will receive email from them saying your order is ready to pick up by you!!!!!. Shameful you have to pay Uber or lift for $20 upto $35 .
