Ikea - Costa Mesa

Just $3.99 plus tax and your willingness to boldly order Veggie Balls gets you a curry veg plate to go. Go to a park. Thank God you 're not freezing in Sweden and able to name things more alluringly in English. Probably. Note the change in the default version now that dine-in is open-and that the gravy on the mash is not vegan-but now you interact with a human on the food line to customize. No free water, but at this price

Typically, dining at Ikea is a fun experience. However, during my recent visit, we arrived a bit later in the day and found that they were out of almost everything. The only option left was chicken, and unfortunately, it was extremely dry and quite unappetizing. My suggestion would be to close up for the night if you're out of food. Additionally, the staff on duty had difficulty communicating effectively. Overall, it was a disappointing experience—come on, Ikea, you can do better!

To all the vegans out there: if you've had issues like feeling unwell after your meal, please communicate with the servers directly and let them know you want everything to be vegan. Not every dish is vegan since many are prepared alongside regular foods. Instead of complaining about what is or isn't vegan, just ask the staff for clarification. Let's work together and avoid unnecessary frustration!

This is a fantastic place to explore for some great decorative ideas. I really appreciate their click-and-collect service for its convenience. The store is well-managed and organized. However, many items were out of stock during my visit. The atmosphere is lovely, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the food court near the exit was disappointing due to poor management, such as the lack of hand sanitizer and unfriendly kitchen staff.

This is the first time I've been here since the shutdown. The employees wore masks and things were socially spaced out. They were a couple hours away from closing but everyone was still helpful. It really wasn't much different than normal.
