AI-generated summary
Old school white tablecloth Italian near Luna Park, and people go for that feel as much as the food. Regulars order the chicken scarpariello. It's pricey, and others say their food came out brown and flavorless, the baked clams included. Opinions split hard here.
NYC classic — Gus Gargiulo opened the Coney Island restaurant in 1907 with his brother Louis and sisters Tessie and Angelina cooking in the kitchen. The Russo brothers bought it from the Gargiulo family in April 1965 and still run it. Its grand banquet room, hung with photographs of celebrity guests such as Jimmy Durante, has hosted Brooklyn celebrations for over a century. Wikipedia
