The Old Arabi Food Store exudes a welcoming atmosphere that instantly makes visitors feel at home.As you step inside, you'll find yourself surrounded by a mix of locals and soldiers from nearby Jackson Barracks, all coming together in a shared love for good food and community.Despite the diverse crowd, there's a sense of camaraderie that permeates the air, making every patron feel like part of the family.The genuine warmth and hospitality of the people of Arabi leave a lasting impression, leaving you eager to return for another memorable experience soon.It's evident that attention to detail is paramount here, creating an atmosphere where patrons can truly unwind and enjoy the company of good folks while savoring delectable dishes.Prepare your taste buds for a culinary odyssey unlike any other with the Old Arabi Food Store’s Muffuletta.As you take your first bite, you're greeted with warmth from perfectly toasted bread embracing a melty symphony of cheeses and cold cuts.The careful balance of flavors is expertly achieved, with the heat enhancing the richness of the ingredients while a judicious amount of olive salad ensures the sandwich maintains its integrity without becoming overly oily.What truly elevates this Muffuletta to greatness is the presence of chewy mozzarella cheese, adding another layer of indulgence to an already exceptional creation.It's evident that every element has been meticulously crafted, resulting in a Muffuletta that transcends the ordinary and stands out as a true culinary masterpiece.

Pretty good PoBoy and great fries! Nice little local place, friendly, and down home cooking. Worth a try!

Best poboys in the metro area hands down. Too bad they close at 2pm! This is likely the only change to be made!

Fabulous food! Gotta get there early as they fill up fast. The roast beef sandwich is to die for!

Whenever you find yourself in "Da Parish", make sure you visit Arabi Food Store...Ask for Max and tell him David sent you. You will get the down home service that you can only find in the South!
