by Bruguru in Restaurants & Gourmet, - Top 50, Jul 02 '05
Pros: Those meatballs. Delicious desserts and coffee. Low prices. Cons: The lines.
For the longest time, I used to read and rate reviews on Ikea here in Restaurants and gourmet. To be quite honest, it always confused me as to why a home furnishings store got listed as a restaurant. Eventually, after reading so many reviews of the ...

Pros: Inexpensive, child-friendly, interesting decor Cons: Not worth going unless you are shopping for furniture, not the cleanest place
Finally - Ikea has landed in New England - Stoughton, MA to be exact. I had been to Ikea stores in Virginia and New Jersey but it sure is nice having one in my own backyard. One of the best parts about the Ikea experience is their in-store cafeteria. ...

Pros: For a furniture store these are some good eats. Cons: If it wasn't a furniture store I'd be less impressed.
There is a new gargantuan IKEA in Paramus, New Jersey; I read that it is the second largest in the n ...

Pros: Cheap. Free drink refills. Not incongruous. Cons: If anything, well, it's rather budget-looking, for a reason.
Most people don't go to IKEA just to eat. But once there, once you're inundated with signage throughout the store touting cheap, cheap eats, well, what the heck, why not drop a few bucks on lunch? In the Elizabeth, NJ location, just off exit 13A ...

Pros: Better than I ever expected from an in-store restaurant Cons: It is, after all, an in-store restaurant
Being compelled to shop is probably the only thing that can make me grumpier than being hungry. So why, you may wonder, do I make a point of fasting on the days when my wife insists that I accompany her on a shopping trip?
Because I want to...

Pros: Tasty food and desserts, fun environment, inexpensive, shopping after eating. Cons: Usually crowded, cafeteria-style, sometimes wet trays.
Chances are excellent that we'll never have an IKEA store and restaurant in Omaha, perhaps in part because of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway owned Nebraska Furniture Mart. The Mighty Mart scares away most furniture retailers. Even Sears no longer ...

by blimbach - Top 1000, Jan 20 '02
Pros: Very adequate restaurant inside a huge store Cons: May be slow service at counters, not a place to relax
Have lots of time and take your credit card. This huge warehouse type store will take lots of both. First let me tell you about the restaurant as it is the category I have to write this review under. The restaurant is located in the middle of the...

Pros: Great prices, mostly good-looking stuff. Cons: Going near the place.
One thing’s undeniable about IKEA: it’s friggin’ HUGE. That’s not an especially sublime sentence, but that’s the sentiment one of these Swedish home furnishing superstores inspires, particularly my local branch across the bay from San Francisco, rumored...

Pros: Swedish meatballs and cream sauce. Yum. Cons: Maybe the rest of the food was freeze dried in Sweden and sent here.
I love going to IKEA. Maybe it's the fact that I'd love to have a lamp called a Fjoren. Maybe it's the fact that I love shopping, and this place has everything you want made by super sleek, techno, futuristic Scandanavian mass furniture companies....

Pros: It's in IKEA Cons: Might make you vomit, or wish you could
I find it interesting that there is nowhere on Epinions to review IKEA in general, but that one can review the restaurant. I was amused and so I have to put into words my thoughts on IKEA and their meatballs.
The number one rule when dining at...

Pros: Affordable, stylish, easy to put together Cons: not the absolutely most stylish, not unique, have to put the furniture together yourself
The Ultimate IKEA Review! Hej på er alla från sverige!! (hello one and all from Sweden!) So let's talk about IKEA! The furniture store from Sweden is taking North America by storm, having announced a few years ago to open 50 stores in the ...

Pros: This is a store which sells a variety of goods at very reasonable prices. Cons: They can be too far away
With Christmas fast approaching it seemed that it was time to get the presents I had bought and work out what else I needed to buy. I looked at what I had bought and wrapped and felt quite smug as most of my presents are bought and wrapped. On closer...

Pros: The furniture is nicely designed; the lingonberries look nice on the plate Cons: The furniture is badly built ... and I can't figure out the lingonberries
The wierdness that is Epinions: Ikea, a gigantic big-box store designed to sell pretty much anyuthing related to furniture, home and office life, being slotted in as a Washington, DC restaurant.
But let's defy Epinions' curious administration...

Pros: Very big; lots of selection; very much execise in the process Cons: Too big; might overstrain the unfit american
IKEA is a great store with a magnificent selection. This store provides alternatives to lame furniture selection that can be found in any city. The new branch in Northern California (relatively new stating that it has been open for less than two...

Pros: Very cool retail design. Cons: Cheap Chinese "knock-offs" of Scandinavian Designs plus bad food.
Wolfgang Puck is credited for capitalizing on the fact that restaurants are theatre and that people don't just come for the food, they also want to be entertained. Ikea has realized that people do not just want to shop, they also want to eat.
