Ranking IKEA Food Court Menu Items From Worst To Best
BY Julia Duda
11. Caesar Salad
While IKEA's Caesar salad delivers what you might expect in a modern Caesar salad, there just wasn't anything special about it.
The romaine lacked a fresh crispness, the Parmesan wasn't particularly flavorful, and the croutons were merely fine. Also, the dressing for the salad comes in a packet.
10. Potato Pancakes
The potato pancakes from IKEA weren't downright awful, but they were super bland, weirdly flat, and somewhat stiff. In short, they were boring overall.
A big issue with the texture of the pancakes is that they seemed almost stale, and they didn't have any strong flavors to really help make up for that unsavory texture.
9. Egg Salad Sandwich
The presentation of IKEA's egg salad sandwich was impressive, but it was so incredibly bland-tasting, to the point that it was impossible to overlook.
Even the slightest bit of salt would have gone a long way to bring flavor to this egg salad. It wasn't very creamy, but the lettuce and bread were fine.
8. Buffalo Chicken Wrap
Depending on the location, IKEA offers various kinds of wraps, such as the Buffalo Chicken Wrap. Unfortunately, the Buffalo flavor was lacking here.
The blue cheese that comes on the wrap is the most overwhelming flavor. It makes the chicken seem like a bland background flavor.
7. Salmon Fillet
IKEA's salmon fillet comes with a scoop of mashed potatoes and a medley of green beans and peas, which appeared very bare bones when it came to seasoning or sauce.
The salmon is okay, though not the freshest; the mashed potatoes and veggies were also incredibly boring. While it's far from the worst dish, there's nothing special about it.
