[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh for sure sandwiches at Italian Store in Arlington [/quote]

Nooo...[/quote]

Agreed. Blech! I never understood all of the fuss about this place (And I am Italian). The bread they use is tasteless and soggy and the meats are no better than what you buy at a grocery store deli counter. Then, they slap on some onions, oil, and peppers and call it an Italian sub. And they charge you $10.00 for a small sandwich. They have no competition though, and this is probably the only reason for the hype.[/quote]

If you're from Italy and expecting it to replicate something from home, you've missed the point of Italian Store. It has a title competition now, but it is one of only a few non-big chain sandwich shops.[/quote]

NP.  I don't think Italians eat Italian subs like this, moron.[/quote]

Another NP. Then maybe the Italian Store isn't the right place for someone looking for authentic food??

As an Italian American who grew up in an area with many great Italian restaurants/delis, the Italian Store isn't perfect, but it's the best nearby in this area.

"Best in the area" are the key words.  That is not saying much, as this area is just not good for Italian and Italian American food.  [/quote]

I would include Italian Store on a "must eats" list, filed under Italian subs. Outside of Asian food, there isn't much else around here (DC area) that is AMAZING. You're going to end up with a pretty short list. :lol:
