Torrisi Italian Specialties

Soooo it's not exactly open yet, but when it is, you must go to Parm. The duo from Torrisi Italian Specialties has made such a success out of the sandwich shop their prix-fixe restaurant becomes by day that they've bought the space next door and are about to finish the last coat of paint. They'll serve plated dishes, cocktails, and desserts, but the main draws are those sammies. In the meantime, get your fix at Torrisi during the lunch hour.

What to order: Chicken Parm $8 roll, $10 hero
