What are still 'mob' restaurants in NYC which are either controlled or patronized frequently by wiseguys?

EG: Parkside Restaurant Queens, Pasquale's Rigoletto on Arthur Ave etc.

Thanks in advance.

(Fell free to throw in other business's ie Bars, clubs, hell even bodyshops etc (Pussy Bompensero excluded))


MORGAN: Why didn't you fight him at the park if you wanted to? I'm not goin' now, I'm eatin' my snack.
CHUCKIE: Morgan, Let's go.
MORGAN: I'm serious Chuckie, I ain't goin'.
WILL: So don't go.

Matteo's is great. I'd call them gambinos hang out just based on the owners. Ruggieros by the bay too goes back to gotti.

Ivy you listed bamontes twice.

In bk there's the cadu bar/lounge on cropsey. Is sonny Julianos bar. Homestretch pub, aeros. Caffe Italia-gambinos, specifically Cali and cefalu. Figlia di Ragusa on 18th ave. there was some soccer club bar on bath ave George Decicco used to run. Vinny TV owns the bagel shop right at NU and 16th.

SI there is curves, scoobys, italianisimo, danios if it's still there on fingerboard rd. it's been a while.... There's always big angs bar where you'll see a bunch of wanna bes hoping to get on tv

Jersey I won't even try right now haha. DB can cover lyndhurst and around there pretty well.

Matty the Horse passed away, so it makes sense Umberto's is under another person's name.

StLguy, do you know a lot about St. Louis? How was The Hill when St. Louis was still going? Any restaurants that were/still are "mob restaurants?"

I know nothing about the mab here. In 27 years, I haven't heard about them at all except that they carbombed themselves to death a few years before I was born. There are a few OC things here (child trafficking bust, russian using cloned credited cards, black thugs, etc) but no mob. I talked to an =ex city cop who said they weren't that big (in comparison to other cities) back in the hey day and it was basically nothing when he retired (early 2000s). I would be shocked to find out that there was anything mob related. Even the last bosses kids got crapped on by the city when they were operating a night club here. I've heard a few people say that there is some suspicious things about slay and the marionites, but I don't really know anthing about it. I recently heard from someone that a bar ( about 10 minutes from my house) in north county is a hang out for "bad bikers" but I don't have any other details. St. Louis is a town where there is a good chance of getting mugged, but not of finding signifigant OC (compared to other cities). There have been some scandals, but now much else. Also, there are a few nice spots in STL, but, much like Buffalo, it is a city in decline. I'm sure that there is also marijuana and meth from the ozarks around here too. I knew someone who said he new a musician who blew both his hands off cooking meth.

That was a horrible structured, rambling paragraph.

I have to take issue with Rao's Ivy.

Is Frank considered an associate of the westside?

Is it a predominantly Westside joint?

I was under the impression it was the Vegas of Restaurants. That is, open territory.

(And appreciate the list too by the by)


MORGAN: Why didn't you fight him at the park if you wanted to? I'm not goin' now, I'm eatin' my snack.

Robert Ianniello was running it even before the Horse died.

Some of it I just copied and pasted from other lists when I compiled that one. Not sure why it was listed as specifically a Genovese joint.

A good article about Gambino Capo buying Queens restaurant called "The White House". The late Randolph Pizzolo tried to kill someone at his old restaurant, "Caffe on the Green".

http://nypost.com/2011/03/06/family-restaurant/

'In April 2002, Gambino crime family associate Darren D’Amico was shot in the leg outside of the Cafe on the Green restaurant in Bayside. It is speculated that Bonanno crime family associate Randolph Pizzolo was responsible for the crime. He was subsequently murdered on a hit called by Vincent "Vinny Gorgeous" Basciano. Basciano is now serving life in prison without parole'

I always thought Rao's was a mob restaurant, which was also a celebrity restaurant, known for hard to reserve tables. I read the celebs showed up trying to get glimpses of the mob eating there. Even though it was always very crowded, they always had a large table roped off in case connected members wanted to stop in for a bite to eat.

The original Umberto's location (where Gallo was shot) was on the corner of Hester and Mulberry (today it's called Da Gennaro). Umberto's moved to the corner of Mulberry and Broome about twenty years ago, and they recently moved again to another spot a little further south on Mulberry (between Hester and Grand). The Bronx location has only been there for about ten years. The food's okay. Matty's nephew Bobby runs the place now.

Re Rao's: Frank Pellegrino isn't with anyone. They use that asshole equal opportunity. His partner Ron (who, unlike Frank, is actually related to the original Rao family by blood) is much more well liked by most everyone.

And Rigoletto isn't a hangout, Sonny. Forget about who owns it. That place is that guy's pride and joy, and he and his wife take great pleasure in running it properly.

I was in NYC on business when all of the front pages of the tabloids covered a murder at Rao's. If you don't know the story, it's an interesting read.....reputed mobsters, the real life cop from The French Connection, celebrity restaurant and mob hangout, etc...

There was an article in the Wall Street Journal earlier this month about restaurants frequented by wise guys, although it's more about Jerry Capeci and Tom Robbins plugging their new book: http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304171804579119571381244450

I thought this little tidbit was interesting:

Quote:
By the way, Mr. Capeci asserted that the "Five Families"—Luchese, Gambino, Bonanno, Genovese and Colombo—still exist in the New York area, each with a boss at the top. And they still meet to resolve issues, such as labor racketeering, more or less peacefully. "One rule the commission put in place was to outlaw the killings that put so many gangsters in prison for the rest of their lives," Mr. Capeci explained, "and that helped the government create informants because people were looking at so much time in prison they flipped."

Not really known but a lot of wise guys wld go thru here , they used to point them out to me . If you become a regular you can get extended some cash here as well as a collection meeting point at the bar. . Luchesse and genovese

American bistro - nutley - great food / owners niece is hostess . Guys hang there , some higher ups too

Old franklin steakhouse - nutley - ton of wanna bees here , every night . Shame as owner gambled away the biz and it was a cash cow . I was told he was a "soft collection". garbage route here I know for sure was connected , probably as a way to work it off

So NY guys called Jersey guys 'farmers'

Did Philly have a nickname? Were/are they considered hicks too?


MORGAN: Why didn't you fight him at the park if you wanted to? I'm not goin' now, I'm eatin' my snack.
CHUCKIE: Morgan, Let's go.
MORGAN: I'm serious Chuckie, I ain't goin'.
WILL: So don't go.

I doubt it as Philly is a mean city

The farmer phrase was only used for the Decav family
But it was total bullshit .

The Decav strong point was Elizabeth and Newark and trust me
Not many NY gangsters would ever venture thru those streets , they
Are very very dangerous neighborhoods for white people , connected or not.
I used to go to one of the go go bars there where whites ran into some blacks
And there were numerous shootings and murders , scary shit , and without question if you were white there were black kids on bicycles offering crack right outside the bar .

Man just remembered another jersey spot from years ago

Illvilaggio - carlstadt ( by east Rutherford ) - i used to date a girl
Whose brother was heavily connected ( book and garbage ) and he ran
Book here and probably sharked too , it was his spot , I'm sure he did the garbage too as that is how things work .

Italian restaurants are $ makers for these guys , not just from book and shark for
The regulars and employees but when one of these guys owns the place , they take ( or skim ) tips from the employees , then when they are short cash will lend at high rates . Some bad stuff . Literally not that long ago I was the buffer between some friends and the book and the rough up collection is still in existence as I had to cover for a few buddies right before this was about to happen .

Guys in NYC call everyone who live outside of NYC farmers. They always have. Shit my own relatives called us farmers after we moved out of Brooklyn. He used to sing the theme song to Green Acres when he came and visited us. lol!
