Arrigoni’s has been around for quite some time. Located at the corner of 4th Street and D Street, they tend to get a lot of downtown traffic. Walk into Arrigoni’s and notice the deli counter on your right, and the red and white checkered tablecloth covered tables to your left. The dining area is surrounded by windows making for a bright room with lots of plants and greenery. It feels like you’re in a picnic area.
Arrigoni’s is known for serving Mediterranean specialities, salads, sandwiches, omelettes, soup, and dessert. Upon arrival, you go to the start of the line located at the rear of the restaurant.
- The Beef Eater – Roast beef is topped with bacon and tomato. A tart caper sauce is spread on the bread. One thing I like about Arrigoni’s is that the sandwich makers will scrape out the center of the bread to allow for you to have a proper amount of meat and vegetables to bread. However, I found the beef eater a bit bland compared to what I was expecting. Okay. $7.75
They have a variety of sandwiches, and the salads looked like they could feed a large group of rabbits – mounds of lettuce and whatever other accompaniments on a plate. Overall, I found the deli to have a wide variety of drinks, main items, and nicely presented desserts, but based on the one sandwich alone – well, it was an okay experience. I wouldn’t mind returning, but I’m not running back there wanting to try their entire menu either. An okay place to go and a convenient meeting spot for lunch.
