I got it to go once and just took the veg off, nuked it for 20 seconds to warm the meat and melt the cheese before reapplying the veggies and I thought it was pretty good

I picked up Arby's when heading to the woods because I could eat the tenders and curly fries while driving and I got a single classic beef and cheddar, because I think the roast beef sandwiches are fine even at room temp, $21. )=

Hit up the new deal getting the french dip, curly fries and mozz sticks. The dip was okay, the mozzarella sticks were amazing and the fries were cold by the time I picked them up.

Fries are always cold by the time you get them. They like to put the fries in the box / bag while still making the rest of the order because fast food places can't get fries right anyway.

A cool life hack if you don't use all the au jus for your french dip. Get a french dip & a regular roast beef and you can dip em both in the au jus!

I did decide to take this offer today. 2 French Dips & 2 Regulars & Mozz sticks.

It's not an offer that you have to redeem, so you can stack an offer on top of the order. $3 off $10. $9 + tax total. Good deal.

I started ordering the crinkle cut fries because around here at least (Colorado Springs for the curious), they're a seldom used menu item that astronomically raises the odds you'll get them made to order.

I can believe that. I finally gave them a second try, and they were hotter and fresher than any curly fries I've gotten in ages. I mean, they still taste like I tossed some store brand frozen ones in the air fryer, but that's at least one positive :v:

Arby's has pretty good discounts on offer in their mobile app if you go there with any kind of regularity, for better or worse. For some inane reason it refuses to save your payment info, though.

I mean it makes sense that if you order the inferior option that most people don't choose at most fast food places, you will either get something fresh (because no one else ordered it recently), or something that has been sitting for half the day (because someone else did a long time ago and they aren't going to bother making more for the next and possibly last person for a while).

If you are gonna roll those dice, you might as well shoot for the good stuff.

At some point a place has given you bad curly fries enough times that you just have to give up.

Maybe they make them for you but probably not because apparently a bag of fries is worth $300 so managers are going to do what they can to sell that whole thing.

I noticed they brought back those hushpuppy breaded fish bites, so I grabbed those for lunch today. They're pretty good, I just feel like they don't really go well with anything on the side menu except the plain fries. Especially the jalapeno poppers, there's just a weird contrast between the plain, vaguely southern-ish style fish and the spicy pepper nugs.

The closest Arby's to me is a few minutes from a kickass Greek restaurant so in terms of gyro cravings it's a coinflip situation.

There is a new relatively affordable gyro place in town but it is a push between if they or Arby’s is better. Like the other places in town that bill themselves as Greek places are better, but, expensive.

I went to one Greek place that wanted like $25 for moussaka. There's like 5 diners within 20 miles of me that make it better and cheaper.

Do gyros usually not come with feta? I was about to say that this was my only real complaint about the Arby's gyro, and I could've sworn that that the two gyro shops in Greek town in Chicago both made gyros with feta, but the more I look online the less it mentions feta.

Is it more of an American thing? I just checked the menu of every place I've ever gotten a gyro (with the exception of Arby's) and they all come with feta.

Has Arby's today and it was great! Best poppers in the business, even with that weird bronco berry sauce. Also a curly fry, plain roast beef, jamocha shake,. I want to eat more of it. I really like their 3 pepper sauce, which they also have in packets. I am hungry now. :( Why doesn't this hospital have an Arby's

Arby's just knocks it out of the park for sides with the mozz sticks and the poppers, I don't think I've had better ones at a big chain. Cream cheese in particular sets the poppers apart, I don't know why that's not the standard. gently caress, I need some poppers now :negative:

American gyros are pretty different from Greece. Feta might be regional? I've had gyros with feta but I would expect any generic one to just have onions, tomato, and tzatziki.

For years I'd agreed with you, always preferred cream vs cheddar cheese filled poppers, until I tried the cheddar filled from Sonic. I'd have to say I prefer them more from Sonic than Arby's at this point.

If it doesn't contain cream cheese, literally throw those shits in the trash I don't wanna eat 'em. I don't want to see 'em. Arby's makes the only edible poppers in fast food. And you can get 'em with some kind of weird pepper jelly :yum:

Got the greek gyro for the first time in quite a while, I know it's partly that I haven't lived near an actual greek restaurant in years, but that thing's surprisingly decent. I've gotta give them props for keeping a particular meat and multiple components on hand that are unique to such an oddball offering for a big fast food chain. I'll have to remember it exists more often.
