Ramova Grill

For a heaping helping of Bridgeport from days gone by, this Edward Hopper–esque joint offers reliable renditions of the BLT and freshly griddled hamburgers, all served with a steaming side of sleeves-up, workingman’s reality. The chili recipe is allegedly a “family secret,” but we suspect that family is the Hormel clan; slightly soupy bowls of red are quirkily priced at “$3.25 or $3.50 without beans.”
