You kinda just wanna sit as professionally as possible and just listen to Michael like your in a actual meeting with him 😂
"an" actual meeting.
@@TheLAKERSareGodsTeam not really a (an) difference
i don't wanna bum you out man but there is a difference..."an" goes before any word that starts with a vowel..."a" goes before words beginning with every other letter
Guys ever heard of typo ?
@@binladenschoppa5863 i have yes,but every word spelled correctly & the fact you made a point stating there isnt a difference between using "a" & "an" before certain words suggests to me that that's actually what you believe & is not a type-o...anyways... you learned something new so now you know 🙂
Hi Michael, I have been studying the mafia since I was 10 years old. I don't know how I found your channel but I am so grateful I did. You are an inspiration to many people. I check your channel every day. Most importantly, I am so blessed hearing your testimony about coming to Christ. I love how you stood up to Gravano and defended your faith. You are a blessing and you are living proof that no one is too far gone for redemption. God bless you my brother in Christ
Tony Soprano should have never blew up Artie's restaurant. They should have let Uncle June wack Malanga there, and business would have increased 500%
Hey take it easy! Artie loved that place
Artie should have pimped his wife, in the back room.. business would have increased 2000%
"We're not making a WESTERN HERE"
Next time come heavy or don't come.

I’m a woman but I totally agree with your assessment about ladies laughing at a restaurant. It’s fine to have fun but why does it have to be so loud and disruptive? It makes the dining experience less enjoyable for others.
So trueeeee!
Loud ladies are usually peasant folks
You are the man. Not only do you look 50 you’re sharper than a 30 year old with your remarks about voting and the police. Thank you, sir! I have a lot of respect for you
“Rao’s. They’re pretty stuck up. Nice people, but stuck up. Cash only.” The Mob still running that one 😂
Oh yeah. The food is great though. Ive been there. I recommemd the chicken parmesan.
Can’t wait til you hit 1mil… you’re such an inspiration for everyone including the people who have gone down the wrong path in life. Much love!
@@michaelfranzese anytime!
@@michaelfranzese Mike,salute.Your thoughts on Trump's raid ?
Another great video. One thing I can't stand is when you're trying to get away from work for a few minutes and there's someone at the next table being loud on their phone the whole time
As someone who is a traveling construction worker, the one thing I love about New York is I don’t think I ever had a bad slice at any restaurant or Pizzeria. My blue collar meal in NY is a slice and a piece of cheese cake.
Just stay away from windows Capeché??
My first time in the Big Apple over ten years ago, I learned that even Manhattan sleeps on a cold Sunday night. I walked around looking for a place to eat, and all I found was a pizzeria selling whatever cold slices were left in their display case, lol... I also learned there is a lot of mediocre cuisine in New York, along with the great food, but that it all costs a lot.
Ciaoooo. Buonasera a tutti. I can’t believe that I missed you coming to bradford, england.
Plenty of local good quality Italian places to eat in and around bradford. God bless.
Thanks for sharing the stories. It’s insightful and informative to someone who also was once with God. God is good.
@@LateNightCable Tbh, my experience with dining in New York is that it isn't really anymore expensive than any other major city. Honestly, I was kind of surprised to find this but the restaurants in Manhattan charge about the same as what the restaurants in Seattle or Portland charge, and actually a little bit less than the restaurants in Atlanta.
@@LateNightCable that's the time of day imo to just walk around and check out things. It would seem much more peaceful
I'm glad that Franzese didn't leave out mama Lunas in this vid. I have been to mama lunas and worked there so I love to hear it. Pizza is fire btw
Thank you Mr. Franzese for this channel. Glad you made it out of the life, and providing us with some really awesome history! Much love!
It's so ironic that many criminals like you, after committing horrific crimes, conveniently turn to God and religion. I still would never want to be alone in an alley with you. And when you were with the Mafia, didn't you take an oath to keep your mouth shut??? Now you're singing more than an opera singer. Obviously your word is no good.
Ain’t it wild that this dude is a sociopathic, murderer and financial criminal who took money out of the pockets of working men and women? I am not complaining. I’m fascinated by how likeable and cool this dude is. It just makes you realize HOW he was able to become boss and then slide thru. The dude is just a boss
Mr. Franzese, thank you for all of your wisdom. You might not ever see this but I just wanted to let you know you have made such a positive difference in the world and I couldn't be any more grateful. Thank you 💙
I’m really pleased you liked the hospitality in Britain. Also loved your pronunciation of Glasgow!
@@michaelfranzese Food good in the UK ? Who are you kidding , the English do not know what good food is , and you know it too Franzese, only the Greeks and Italians know how to cook
Lots of folks of Mediterranean decent are Brits , Niko 😉@@elgreeko6241
Great video as always. I’ve been to Raos once and it was an experience! My father and I went with his cousin ( who was in the life) and his son. I was about 16-17 years old at the time and I remember the walls being covered in pictures of celebrities who have gone there. Great times
I feel like my stomach gets whacked every time I go to Olive Garden
Lolol
They should wack the chef
Olive Garden is NOT Italian food. Not even in the same universe. Jesus.
@@bobm2878 This grandson of an Italian immigrant eat at Olive Garden once. I was less than pleased.👎
Spark's Steak House was a good choice for number one but I thought it would be Joe and Mary's where Carmine Galante met his end.
The picture of him lying dead on the ground, cigar still clamped in his mouth is truly iconic.
I normally don't comment but I keep thinking about in the 80s my Moms gossip magazine i remember how they photo graph you and write about you. I remember how my Dad said you are a really smart person. I think between you being smart not selling out and your true desire to change your life is why you're still here. God has alot for you to do its pretty great that you took your smarts to help. And teach so many not to mention no matter what bringing people to God! God Bless you and keep up great things you are doing! Thank you ! you've helped me so much!!
Not selling out? He's on youtube dropping names though 😂😂😂
"We were pretty good at collecting money." Understatement of the decade. Lol.
You got that right.
Fuhgeddaboudit!

Mr. Franzese. Hello and greetings from central N.J. Being in my 50's,I remember reading articles about you in "The Star Ledger", USA Today, and several national magazines back in the 80's. You were a very interesting man back then, and even more so now. Your stories are amazing, and it's incredible to hear about the events that happened from someone who was really there. Congrats on Your RUclips success, wine brand, and other endeavors. Best to You and Yours.
Chicago has so many great restaurants. You mentioned some good ones. Thank you.
Lovin the content Michael keep it coming brother! God bless🙏🏻
Another great video. Do you think you can do a video on some of the Long Island hot spots back in the day. The clubs and restaurants you used to frequent.
I respect you and love your true stories. Keep it rocking…..Patriarca organization ate at Capricios in Providence. Met a few of them. I tutored underbosses son at Bryant. He brought me to some “dinners.” They all spoke English but they all talked in code. They were very kind to me and treated me w respect even as a college kid. The director of my major (and I became friends w him…Jack Ruebens) advised mayor Buddy Cianci. I suspect a lot of money was laundered through the Rhode Island “credit unions”. Wild times back in the day
Omg I love your honest opinion on so many things. Yes, girls laughing and screaming drives me up a wall. Can't tell you how many dinners and events I've attended absolutely ruined by them. I've never even known a girl like this. It's sad and ridiculous.
"...Absolutely ruined...!", surely a little bit hyperbolic with that sentiment there...or are you really as humourless and easily annoyed and quick to anger as this makes it appear? Or would screams of pain, be they from fanatical self-flagellaton or emitted by damned souls tormented forever in a hell of the vile death-cult of christism where an un-dead Jewish zombie is the object of veneration for no adequately explored reason, would THOSE be more to your tastes and approval, or what?

Another fantastic video! It was wonderful to meet you in Manchester. Safe journey to you and your family when you travel home.
Thanks for the restaurant saga , great viewing
Hi Michael thank you for another interesting sit down. Love your videos from the wales in the UK 🇬🇧
Hope you don’t have a record cause you won’t even be allowed to America for a McDonald’s
@@DoFeedThePigeons Why would I have a record??
Curious that Real mob hits in restaurants are much more brutal and less dramatic than what we usually see in movies...Loved the video Michael!
Hello Michael, Hope all is well with you and yours. Thank you for a great evening at Villa Park, it was fantastic. Hope you tour again
A former mobster ends his video by asking, "You want protection and safety?" XD
I went to Sparks with my 2 boys about 10 years ago. Just out sightseeing and popped in for a lovely steak and a few beers. Great place
Love and respect from the UK Michael.... So glad you came to our country and had a good time!
Interesting stuff as always, Michael!
Thank you for the amazing content Mr. Franzese. I have you and your family in my prayers. Have a blessed day sir.
Big Paul’s murder at Sparks will always come to mind
good steaks ive eaten there a few times...
I remember when I went to umbertos once, I want to own a restaurant in the future so I asked the manager how bad the Joey gallo hit affected the business, he looked at me like I just pissed in my wine glass I’ll never forget his face
Your videos are always interesting and informative. Keep up the great work Michael!
This video was by far the creepiest and funniest (though in a sick way, like getting shot in the back for laughing too hard in a restaurant) video that you have ever made Mr. Francese. I listened to it at 75% speed and laughed all of the way through!
Love your videos so much Mr Franzese your my favorite, when are you giving shows in Amsterdam or Europe love to meet you in person
Another fantastic vid Michael, Thank you for entertaining us!!!
I used to go the Bamonte's in Brooklyn when I lived in Greenpoint. Fantastic old school Italian family restaurant. I'd occasionally see double-parked Town cars outside.
Mr. Franzese, I just wanted to say how much I enjoy and appreciate all of your videos. Absolutely fantastic the way you carry yourself and your faith. My wife and I look forward to enjoying a bottle of your wine for our 20th anniversary. Thanks again and God Bless you and your family. 👍👍
Hi Michael! Congratulations on your wines. Listening to this video makes me reconsider the expression, “Fast food take-out.” I truly enjoy the historical anecdotes. Lovely video!
I’m from Liverpool and went to Michael’s event here. I stayed in the hotel the event was in. We just so happened to be checking in the same time as Michael, got to speak and get a picture with him. Then got to meet him again at the event and got a signed photo with him. Then the next day, I saw him recording that video he showed at the start of him outside the cavern and got to speak to him again and got another photo. He even remembered me and commented on how we stayed in the same hotel. He was such a nice humble man. Best two days ever getting to meet him so many times, he even went and trained in my friends gym so he’s serious about his excercise 🤣. Thanks again for a great two days Michael 😎
Love to hear about Horwath's. I grew up in that area and I heard about English getting shot there. Like you said it story ended there.
Thanks again for the great information Michael. Always enjoyable to here your experiences.
The most famous ones are Carmine Galante and Joey Gallo. That infamous pic of Galante’s face clenching a cigar with a bullet riddled face just give you the chills.
I heard that the cigar was put INTO his mouth by the photographer though maybe not but it's hard to believe a cigar wouldn't tumble out really easy.
@@lamper2 I doubt that. Police would not have let anyone tamper with the crime scene.
@@TheStrategos392 were the police there during the shooting?
Mary’s kitchen
My first trip to New York I made a reservation at Sparks and it was good. I 100% agree with you about women in a restaurant. I've asked to be moved when a table of women can't stop cackling. Afterwards the server said. "I don't blame you for wanting to move."
Loved listening to you soooo pleased you enjoying England 🇬🇧 love to you and your family 💙
Great Video Michael thank you and God bless you
I've even seen Halloween decorations of hits w red and white table cloth..chalk outlines etc crazy how it becomes pop culture through Media. Thanks for this video! Always interesting content
Good presentation Michael, thanks!
For my 30th birthday this past February, I wanted to wow everyone with a nice restaurant, so I took them to Sparks Steakhouse. Great food, and the steak there is ridiculous in size and taste.
Thanks so much for this rundown! Great information Michael! God bless and stay safe!
Umbertos was great. I’d get the scungili fra diavolo with pepper biscotti. I’ve been to Raos a couple of times too. Back when the old lady used to bring cheesecake. Pellegrino died of throat cancer. Too many cigars. Bo Dietl always there
When our team all retired after 25 years. Being together. Still seeing each other often brings back memories.
Mike, I'm from Philly and I really liked the Philly connection. Also we have Cous Little Italy.Angelo Bruno ate his last meal there. I believe Phil Testa also ate his last meal there.
Michael thank you so much for your very generous words about the UK, I'm a Mancunian obviously from Manchester, England UK.
You're very welcome in our countries always. Peace
The most notorious I can come up with on the top of my head (before watching this video) are: The Masseria hit in Coney Island, the Joe Galo hit, the Castellano/Billoti (sparks steakhouse) hit and the Carmine Galante hit.
You are a certified nerd
Do you have to have a soul to haunt a place? imagine these restaurants being haunted by some guido ghosts, aye its peperino the poltergeist ova here.
@@krono5el the sacred and the propane
Sparks steakhouse is still there and Umberto clams house even if they changed the name to not be associated to the hit.. the others are not there anymore
Speaking of Carmine Galente -- I remember that when King Faisal of Saudi Arabia was assassinated, certain media reported that Carmine Galente attended his funeral. Was that true?
Thanks Michael you might not see this but there videos mean a lot to me
My family and I eat at Ma Ma Luna's all the time, it's still in business.
Very Well Brother, Be Safe! God Bless You Michael.
Thank you Michael for the stories and the way you tell them. I'm glad you chose a different life path than the one you once had. I love watching mob movies but wouldn't want to live that life. Thanks again
Lol. Ok
Always enjoy your great videos Michael! I was getting hungry seeing the food! God Bless!
Well Mr. Franzese, though Italian food is my favorite and i could never give it up, i guess i'll feel pretty safe at in & out or mcdonald's lol.
True story i used to work for a high end mover with only rich clients, so one day were delivering and installing a flat screen tv in lee iacoccas bedroom at his mansion.....this was before hardly anyone had these type of tv's.
He liked our service so much, he tipped each one of us $100 bucks and had his italian chef cook us an Italian lobster lunch....i licked my plate clean.
God bless you and your loved ones.
An Italian lobster lunch. Omg that sounds delicious. I wish I was born in NY .
Hey man I enjoy watching your videos abouts the old day's gone by keep up the good work cheers man
1985 was the year of the Paul Castellano hit.
yeah... that is what i thought.... I remember it
Sparks
Funny you mention being annoyed by loud people incessantly laughing in restaurants. That's a pet peeve of mine as well. I always say to my wife as well..."what could be so funny?".
How did you omit the hit on Carmine Galante in Joe and Mary's Italian-American Restaurant in Brooklyn? The image of Galante's body sprawled in the floor with a cigar still in his mouth is one of the most famous of all crime photographs.
love your content Michael !!
This restaurant isn’t known for any mob connections but it’s an Italian restaurant by the name of Gendusa’s Italian Eatery, in Kenner, Louisiana. The dining area has photographs of Mafia guys on their walls, including images from The Godfather. The food there is good
I absolutely love that place.
The Joe Gallo Pizza is fantastic
I’m from Vancouver on the west coast of Canada. Our best Italian restaurant is by far Il Giardino. It’s ran by Umberto Menghi, an award winning chef originally from Italy. If you’re ever in town I highly recommend it Michael! All the best
How many vaccines do you need to be able to eat inside?
Michael, I really enjoy your videos and sit downs. Much respect to you and your family. God bless
Great vidéo Mike !! As always I really enjoyed it..
Dante and Luigi’s in Philly is one of my favorite restaurants in Philly. They have great food. I would travel from Wilmington Delaware to eat there. I knew all about it being a mob place too lol
My goodness you’re absolutely right about the women laughing!
Great breakdown as always Michael, really enjoy your weekly sitdowns, thank you my friend, from London. Peace.
Did u watch the full video?
"Michael you keep plugging it." Of course you do! Why wouldn't you? First of all, it's your wine, you want the venture to be successful. Secondly, it's new, you never know, people might not know about it yet.
Quite right ✅️
While in the navy in early 50s was stationed a Charles Town navy yard. There was an Italian restaurant that we frequented in the area. Was discharged in late 55, some time in 56 I was reading a Life magazine which had photographs of men killed in that restaurant, I recognized every face, some of the older ones had paid for our meals.
Michael did you understand people in Scotland we do have a strong accent 😂😂
I remember my uncle taking me to NYC and we ate at an Italian restaurant out on the sidewalk. It was neat
Michael, great video as always
There's a steak restaurant here in Phoenix that opened in 1950 and has been frequented by many mob guys and entertainers and it's called Durants on Central Ave. It was originally owned by Jack Durant, who passed away many years ago but it's still operating. Before opening the restaurant he worked for Bugsy Siegel in Vegas.
Congrats on your UK trip and have a safe journey home.
I went to see Michael last Monday in Bradford seen as you mentioned the uk tour it was a really good night I met him what a lovely guy he made me feel at ease straight away.
@@ryanburston899v 2:11 😅😅😅😅😅
OMG, I can relate to the restaurant story about the table of women just laughing so damn loud that it’s difficult for your dinner companion and me to hear each other. So rude and obnoxious. It happened last night at an Italian restaurant here in Seattle. Just gawd-awful.
Michael, I got a mob movie for you to review....It's called "Oscar" with Sylvester Stallone. It's basically an ode to the screwball slapsticks comedy of the 30's & 40's. I forgot how underrated and funny this movie was until I saw it recently. You should review this movie and as a bonus your good friend Chazz Palminteri is in it and he's absolutely hilarious!!!!.....
That’s a GREAT movie 😂 I loved it. Michael should totally review it
One of the funniest lines from that movie" you forking ice hole" love it
God is good.
Yes, except he will have you tortured for eternity if you don't worship him. That's love.
The Willie Moretti hit in Cliffside Park, NJ at Joe’s Elbow Room on October 4, 1951 was one of the most sensational killings.
Great video. Delighted the tour went well. Safe travels home.
Watching you from India
😄trying to learn to speak English by listening to your videos, have already watched more than 5 videos of yours today lol
Hey Michael I'm Really Enjoying Your Videos I Love Hearing Your Perspective And I Find Your Perspective On The Mob Fascinating My Favorite Restaurant Is Olive Garden Keep The Videos Coming God Bless You And Stay Safe
I had a customer from Los Angelos who visited our plant in PA annually, always planned around the semi-finals of the US Open in the Meadowlands. Every year they wanted to make sure we visited Sparks Steak House in Manhattan, NYC. If I recall correctly, that's where Paul Castellano & an associated was killed. Anyway, never had a bad meal when we went there.
you talk about the Mob gathering in Resturants......I will always remember Tony Sporano's comment about Peter Luger's Steak House...."I spent so much that I put a new wing on over there!"
That was great to watch. I have always enjoyed your conversation.
If you visit England next year, You should visit Gloucester. You should visit Tonno Italian Restaurants. It is very good, classy & you will enjoy it.
Also you should visit the Gloucester Cathedral as well which was built over 2000 years ago.
It is also the place where they filmed some of the Harry Potter films from the school.
Take care & I will always look forward to your videos.
I've been to Sparks quite a few times. My brother used to live close by. Awesome restaurant. We took my mom and dad there for their 40th anniversary. We put them in the Waldorf for the weekend. What a great memory.
Thank you Mr. Franzese for this video. It is interesting to see the history of these restaurants. Along that line, are you a history buff?
I'm originally from Rhode Island, and sure do miss a good Italian dinner, or fresh seafood. Is your wine available on line?
God bless you, and your family.
Formerly from the Bushwick section of Brooklyn and Brooklyn in general. I recall when the mobster Carmine Galante was shot dead in a restaurant on Knickerbocker Avenue. I also lived in a section of Brooklyn where men were found dead in the back of car trunks left in the neighborhood in a place we called "the weeds", or dumped in the boat marina waters around Knapp St. and Avenue X.
When a mob boss says "family"... I'm never absolutely certain exactly who he is referring to. Wife & kids or hit men. 🤣
The second he said the word "concierge " I was immediately reminded of the 1968 movie The Producers.
Michael’s so funny how he politely talks about how irritating the cackling women were. We’ve all been there.
Glad you like our Island Michael. Love your videos!
