Mozzarella Sticks

What is it?

Breaded cheese sticks fried until the coating turns golden and crisp, then served with marinara for dipping. Inside, the cheese softens and stretches once it's hot. They're a standard appetizer-style side in Arby's lineup, alongside items like Jalapeno Bites. Seasoned breading rather than heavy spice covers each stick, and the familiar narrow shape matches what you'd see at most fast-food chains. Arby's serves them as a shareable snack or as an alternative to fries, with the marinara sauce adding a tangy tomato note. Mozzarella is the cheese used, and it melts into long, stretchy pulls when served fresh.
