Arni’s Lafayette Pay-Less — Restaurant in Lafayette

I stopped in at this location about a month ago or so. Went to the kiosk and ordered 4 salads 2 LG pepperoni and sausage pizza's and a small cheese pizza. Oh forgot to say I was on lunch break from the nursing home I work at to order all of the nurses supper. The guy takes the order and said give us 20 mins. I stand back from the pick up side a lil ways and watch the gentleman as he starts to prep my pizzas. He did not wash his hands nor did he put on gloves. He the starts spreading the dough with his hands. The phone rings he stops rolling the dough goes and answers the phone. Ends the phone call and goes right back to rolling the dough for my pizza and does not wash his hands again nor does he put on gloves. He then puts on the sauce with the ladle and starts putting on the cheese. Mind you he did not use gloves not did he wash his hands. He then digs them into the cheese container that goes on everyones pizza even yours! He then runs out so he gets a new bag of cheese opens it throws the bag in the trash. A piece of the bag falls to the floor he picked it up and smashed it down into the trash can with both hands cause the can was very full. He the turns and scoops the pepperoni out the meat pan with his bare hands and continued to do the same with the sausage. Oh and i forgot he didnt wash his hands after smashing the trash into the can with his bare hands. Oh there was also 1 other employee who was working with him. She made my salads. She washed her hands before and after making my salads. She also put on gloves while naking my food. She was awesome!! She walked out of the kiosk and I stopped her and said I'm sorry but can u tell me why is he not wearing gloves? Can you tell me why he didn't wash his hands after the phone call? Or the trash can? She said no ewww thats gross. She said i always wear gloves. I said I'm sorry but I'm not taking that pizza. I work in health care and with the elderly. I can not risk making anyone sick especially during a global pandemic. I said he needs to be washing his hands often and be wearing gloves. She apologized to me and remade my pizzas by herself and he did not touch anything. She did tell him what I said and he then immediately went and washed his hands and put gloves on. He did not touch a single piece of food with out them the entire time I was there waiting for the new pizzas. I will never get pizzas from this location again. So sad too cause I love...

Always a treat to eat here with so many delicious items on the menu. I almost got a stromboli, one of my fave sandwiches of theirs, until I spotted the Windsor (ham & turkey on Texas toast topped with cheddar cheese sauce and chopped green onions) so I got that instead and wasn't disappointed at all. It had been years since I had one and forgot how good it is. A cup of chicken dumplings soup and an Arni's Jr rounded out the meal. Staff is always friendly and the kid friendly seating area has a lot to look at with old and current pics of Lafayette and West Lafayette on the walls. Very accommodating to large groups as well! Medium pricing, but you also get your...

We are in from out of town and came across Arni's. We forgot to bring plates and napkins. My wife added a note to our order that asked for them (if they were available) and we were surprised with a bag full of them. That meant a lot to us!

I was pleasantly surprised by the pizza. We ordered pepperoni and sausage. There was no grease or oil! The bottom of the crust was drier than a meat pizza usually is. The pizza was thin, softer and tasty. It was full of toppings.

Thank you for a first...
