Located along Mascuppic Lake, Arancini has opened a second location in Dracut offering takeout only and DoorDash delivery. This small building has been home to several eateries over the years including a Brazilian restaurant recently.
Similar to their full service location in Woburn, the Italian menu offerings here include a selection of pasta dishes, parms, meat & seafood dishes, salads, appetizers, and dessert. The prices are moderate high. However, this Dracut location is call-in takeout and online ordering only.
Recently, I placed a DoorDash pickup order to Arancini in Dracut. I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo ($19 plus tax) and the Arancini Sampler ($12 plus tax). My order was all set for pickup at the outside window 12 minutes later.
Since it was a nice evening outside, I drove to a nearby park to eat dinner. The Arancini Sampler was comprised of 2 firm crisp breaded rice balls, one filled with ground meat and the other filled with spinach, topped with parsley & grated parmesan cheese and served over a thick marinara sauce. Both arancinis had good flavors and a great choice for a starter.
The Fettuccine Alfredo was comprised of soft fettuccine noodles tossed in a creamy alfredo sauce topped with parsley. This pasta dish was not too rich yet a satisfying cream sauce pasta dish.
Overall, I enjoyed some solid good choices with homemade sauces. There are other things on the menu like the chicken marsala and rigatoni bolognese I would also order on a future visit to Arancini. read more
