“This place is just so GOOD!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

Great Local Hangout - we went yesterday for Lunch - the soups are hit or miss, the chili is always good and the portions on sandwiches you can't beat. Yesterday was BBQ day - 2 Pulled Pork sandwiches on Kaiser with side of slaw and a pickle for $8.95. I thought I was getting 2 slider sandwiches but it was full size - so lunch today was the other. Fries are always good and hot - place an order and enjoy while you wait for you food, Full Bar and Sodas and Ice Tea are huge portions. You get your moneys worth and its always good.

“Great sandwiches!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 2, 2012 via mobile

We are locals, so we have been to Arena's many times. Great sandwiches, but the fish tacos are FABULOUS! Good soups and nice beer selection, too. Definitely recommended!

“Good location, good food”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 26, 2012

Nice outdoor dining as well as indoors. Good variety of menu items leaning toward sandwiches. We had fried shrimp which was very tasty and a chicken cheese steak sandwich which was good but lacked zip. Service was very good and very fast and the restaurant was filled when others nearby were not. Seemed to be a place the locals go.

“Great food!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 3, 2012

Arena's is a small deli just off of the main street in Rehoboth. It has a laid-back, casual atmosphere. The food is fantastic and the beer list is quite extensive. My boyfriend is still fantasizing about the chicken wrap that he ordered from the build-your-own section of the menu.
