Arby’s sits atop the higher-quality tier of fast food chains. Among its beefy offerings, Arby’s at, 248 Thain Rd. in Lewiston serves a Reuben sandwich. Is it worth eating when on the run, or does it feel like just any other fast-food item?
  This sandwich is a clear cut above typical fast food, but it still must be critiqued as fast food.
  Arby’s serves a balanced Reuben sandwich. The ratio between all the components is solid, ensuring that no element overpowers the others. The ingredients work as a team of complimentary flavors.
  It is a nice surprise to see Arby’s execution of the bread. A flick of the bread reveals a pleasant toastiness. However, the quality is uneven, as it isn’t consistently well-toasted. The toastiness proves to be a false hope, as only the surface has that solid crust to it
  When biting into the sandwich, each component  acts as a strong color working to paint a picture of flavor. Despite this, the colors blurred together in some bites.
 Arby’s pays attention to the smaller details. The sauce provides a healthy zing and pleasant flavor, but lacks finesse. Arby’s provides a good helping of cozy cheese.
  Arby’s serves a clean sandwich, defying the typical greasiness of fast food. It is a satisfying eat. This is one of the few fast-food items that doesn’t leave the customer feeling defeated after finishing it.
 Arby’s proves why it is in the upper rankings of fast food with its Reuben. It is a worthy substitute to a full-service restaurant Reuben when pressed for time or money. Executed well and full of flavor, Arby’s earns seven out of 10 points.
