Cheesesteaks and Po’boys at Dogma

Things have changed at Dogma. Gone are the veggie dogs and toppings like avocado and feta cheese. In their place: Philly cheesesteaks, oyster po’boys and roast beef sandwiches. The hot dogs are still there, too, with old-school toppings like baked beans and Cheez Whiz. Just what your beach body needs.
