Debate of the Issue: D’Agostino’s

“Consuming a whole Dags sub is safe; however, taking on an entire Ma Magoo’s Chicken Tender Honey Mustard sub will put anybody out of commission for the next several hours”

D’Agostino’s has to be one of the greatest local delis in the area; their quick service, great employees, and delicious offerings all serve to make Dags the best dining option available to a Belmont Hill Student. Just a short 5-minute drive down Park Ave, this deli is truly a go-to on a day when you’re just not feeling the Sodexo meals (we’ve all been there). Now, when you go, they have a great selection of subs; my favorite is the Chicken Parmesan, but my friends also go for the Meatball on occasion. The food is really incredible and will leave you feeling content after a long day or practice. There is also practically no wait, 10 minutes tops if they’re busy.  One thing that really stands out about Dags is that they make your sub right in front of you, so you never are left worrying about how much longer you’ll have to wait (or about the food quality). In contrast, Ma Magoo’s makes you wait anywhere from 15-20 minutes.  Although this in itself is not much more time, the drive to Fresh Pond and back takes about 20 minutes—30 with traffic. This really adds up and can be a deal breaker for students on The Hill who then opt for Dags. It is also worth noting the difference in caloric intake between your average Dags sub and the classic Chicken Tender Honey Mustard sub from Ma Magoo’s.  Although my analysts haven’t been able to pinpoint the exact numbers, I feel confident in saying this; consuming a whole Dags sub is safe.  However, taking on an entire Ma Magoo’s Chicken Tender Honey Mustard sub will put anybody out of commission for the next several hours, except for maybe the legendary Bobby Paré, who is rumored to have consumed two in one sitting.  Although I respect Ma Magoo’s and have eaten there many a time, I believe that D’Agostino’s is the superior of the two.
