At this casual eatery on upper Rutledge Avenue, crispy chicken parm gets topped with “grandma” sauce and a blanket of mozzarella, while cheese-steaks are piled with shaved rib eye, Duke’s, and house-made cheese whiz. Make dessert a cup of local Frigid Bits ice cream (featuring rotating flavors like salted honey baklava, apple molasses, and blackberry jam biscuit.)
