Classic subs, sandwiches and salads, such as meatball or roast beef subs, corned beef reuben, ham and swiss, chicken salad, as well as pasta dinners served daily. Named a "hidden gem of dining" in Birmingham News City Scene, March 2009, which notes, "Ranelli's has been a Birmingham fixture for so long -- since 1971, in fact -- that it tends to get forgotten, but the sub sandwiches and baked lasagna are among the best in town. The blues-bar atmosphere adds to the funky appeal."

Great little deli with good food and good value. The Central Grocery in New Orleans has nothing on Ranelli's peppered beef sandwich with olive salad, a platonic dish.
