Arby's — Restaurant in Ruston

After the closure of the previous Arby's I thought perhaps the end of days was upon us. I heard that there was to be a second, more glorious restaurant to be in construction. Arbys whispered to me as if from a voice familiar yet too subtle to be made clear, the words of a forgotten DMB song c.1996 "Who's got their claws in you my friend? Into your heart I'll beat again" I waited patiently for construction to finish with my mouth watering and more perspiration accumulating on my upper lip with each passing day. Once the doors were open my mission was simple: obtain a Beef and Cheddar Classic and return home to Kathleen Quinlan safe before sundown. As I drive my maroon motion machine through to the house that beef built, my folly was quickly assured when the voice of an angel with wings charred like brisket came over the intercom to inform me I could have 2 of my Beef and Cheddar Classics, the only fuel driving my life forward, for the price of only $6. Completely enamored, I sat in awe wondering how such a quality of blessing had been bestowed upon me. I thought perhaps "Am I the lucky one?" This thought plagues my soul. I know not if I am worthy of Arby's grace, but I will continue to stand humbly in their gaze until the day they choose an acolyte more fit to be served daily.

I dunno- Arby's is...

Dropped by for a late evening snack. No online ordering, water on the floor, some of the workers socializing with friends... About typical for most fast food places these days. The one bright spot was the very nice and efficient girl who waited on us-sorry I missed her name. Food was fresh and hot.

Update 01/22: still very friendly and efficient service. Good food and automatic senior discount without asking.

Update 01/23: EIGHT workers! So service was courteous and prompt. Food was again hot and fresh. The 2 for $7 deal is pretty good these days.

Update 05/23: The sliders are quite good and loaded with meat. Smiling, friendly service once again. Love the senior discount. Rang the bell upon exit.

Update 09/10: Still impressed by the quality and taste of the food and the fast, friendly service. Our counter clerk volunteered that senior drinks were discounted....

APR 2023: Wish the Beef & Cheddar sandwiches were still on the 2 for $6 menu (items rotate & now it's $7!). Love their mozzarella sticks, jalapeno poppers, and seasoned curly fries. Jamocha shake is indulgent but soooo tasty. Enjoyed their fish sandwich too. Chicken nuggets are big chunks of juicy meat (not like pressed & formed nuggies). Love the roasted turkey, ranch, & bacon sandwich (well filled), but sometimes the bread is dry. The garlic steakhouse sandwich was pretty good but very overpriced (it was about 1/2 the size they make it look on TV). Repeated great service in drive-thru. Like...
