Where to Eat and Drink in Manhattan’s Little Italy
"Back in 1972, crime boss Joey Gallo was gunned down here during dinner, making Umbertos famous for generations before the Sopranos. The key is to order anything with clams in it. The littlenecks on the half shell are fresh, clean, and ice-cold, and so are the ample martinis. Baked clams, linguine with white clam sauce, seafood Marechiaro (an assortment in red sauce over pasta), and fried calamari with the hottest of the three sauces are further good choices." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff
