Inside joke for my friends: They have bread. And the two pieces of the garlic butter-drenched type was the highlight of the meal. The salad I got was covered in a mountain of shredded cheese and the alleged balsamic vinaigrette was, essentially, watered-down but over-salted Italian. I think. The service was glacially slow. I think the sea levels rose while I was there. While serving the next table over my waitress managed to pour water down her hand and onto the table when trying to refill their waters. I was hoping for a hometown home run. I got a strikeout.

The decorum in this place is wonderful I will give it that, and it was clean. Aside from that the service was a nightmare. Had our order taken and waited 38 minutes for a burger and a salad!!! When the food did arrive I was given no condiments salt pepper and peppercorn flakes. I ordered a Cajun burger and I must say it w as far from the bellows of the south. The brioche was cold and the burger was burned to death. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone rns

Being a Frankfort native, I grew up with Arni's being one of the only places to eat. Today, I was in Lebanon for the day at the waterpark with a friend, and we decided to go to Arni's for lunch in Lebanon on the square. We were seated right away and the hostess got our drinks immediately. We ordered a Stromboli and a Jr. Fried Chicken Salad to split. Our waitress was GREAT and brought us plates out before to split the meal up. She gave us each our own dressing without charging more, and she kept the refills coming. When we were done, she offered us to go cups, and the kicker is that since we were just sitting there gabbing...she didn't ignore us! She made sure we were doing well long after we paid and made us feel comfortable. The food was typical of Arni's, which isn't AMAZING, but it's still pretty good. The experience here today was pretty great!

Arni's has great salads and pizza and sounded good the other day. This location is not our favorite, but is closest to our house. I'm not sure why they bother having a waitstaff. Our waitress took our order and never came back. We just sat there with empty drinks for 30 minutes as that is how long the food took. Half empty restaurant, too. Someone else brought out our apps and meal at the same time, then also never came back. Fries with no ketchup, still no water refill, and no one to ask for help. The food was meh and the service was awful. I really wanted to dispute the bill, but we had places to go and I'm not sure it would have helped improve a thing. This location was already on Probation with us, but not it is officially on the Never Again list.

The food here is pretty good but the service is not...the 96th street location is much better and I would recommend that one. It seems like bad service seems to be a trend here

The pizza is good but the salad wasn't so good. The lettuce and toppings were old. Ordering over the phone was slow. The staff had no idea of the menu and I couldn't see it online. They could have been quicker and more knowledgeable of the menu.

I actually have been to arni's quite a few times over the years & it seems like the service gets worse and worse. Our waitress was seriously horrible. She literally took our order brought us our food and drinks and she was done. She didn't think to ask how the food tasted or if we would like a refill when our drinks were empty.. As a server you would think that is top priority, instead she was very quick to give us our check and get us out the door. We asked for a box and that literally took her 10 minutes alone. We had to ask the hostess for refills. So she got a tip instead of the waitress. The food was okay. Step it up Arni's.

My first visit to the Lebanon location. I am a big Arni's fan. Had a late Sunday afternoon lunch here with co-workers returning from a conference. The Junior "Salad" was great with a generous portion of turkey/ham/cheese and great blue cheese. Pizza was great as always, standard Arni's thin crust with nice layer of sauce and abundant toppings. Good service.

Arrgghh. An old time standby as I fondly remember those stromboli's in Lafayette while attending Purdue. Sorry gang. This place just fails big time. Tastes have changed. We expect more... than bland tomato paste out of a can on the strombolis. More than the toppings added to a presumably precooked pizza crust and then warmed in a toaster oven. How else can the crust be overcooked and the toppings cool and undercooked? And more than mostly iceberg lettuce with a ton of diced cheese and a little ham with italian dressing that was, well, another poor quality item presumably out of big jar. You want low quality ingredients with lots of preservatives? You can get it here. That $4 meal from Steak N' Shake would have been a better alternative.

Atmosphere is great. Prices were above average for the quality. The Junior salad is filling, but slightly expensive for the amount of food. The pizza was simplistically tasty. The pepperoni and bacon is great. The cheese is amazing. The crust is thin, but flimsy. The real negative is the sauce. It seems like it is just tomato paste. And for the price it is too bland as a whole. The marketing is confusing. Is this fine dining. The figures in place mates and menus speak ritzy. But it comes off as chensy. I am not sure if they are communicating fine dining or a community diner. They need a rebrand badly. The service was great and the establishment was clean. But I don't think I will make it a place I would visit regularly.

I was initially drawn to this Arni's because of its prominent location on the courthouse square. I've frequented the Arni's in Greenwood, which is definitely different from this location. I came in on a weeknight a little before dinner, hoping to get a quick bite before a meeting. The service was quick and my food arrived very quickly. Great wait staff, offered to give me a to-go drink cup without even my request. I tried one of their current specials - Mac and Jack's - which are jalapeño mac and cheese bites. They were pretty delicious! Overall, a pretty decent place to get something local to eat in Lebanon.

Went to Arnie's with my family and the food was... Bad. My pasta was rubbery and the sauce was watery. The steak was also not cooked fully

Good pizza, heavy handed on the toppings, yum! Salad was typical lettuce + pizza toppings Could benefit from a makeover but why? This is the middle of Indiana.

Average food but extremely slow speed of service... food is decent and a decent value but they need to speed things up... also menus are a bit old and need to be updated. Decor is a bit dated and dinig room layout is a little bit weird. Not bad if you don't mind waiting...

Ate lunch here with a friend. The pepperoni pizza was good. I thought it was interesting how they put the pepperoni on the pizza, but it actually tasted quite alright. I mainly made this review to shout out to the young lady who served us (I forgot her name, but she was short/skinny blond haired white girl). Absolutely fantastic service and very accommodating. She seated us on the other side of the restaurant even though no one was there because we wanted to watch the Blackhawks game on TV. She went the extra mile to make us comfortable and it was exceptional service. Thanks again to her!

Great food and great atmosphere to match. I love the facility of this restaurant. I have been to a few Arni's and by far this is the best. It has a great grown up feel to it compared to others but same great Arni's taste!

Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
