"Cafe Spaghetti’s Sal Lamboglia takes over the historic Ferdinando’s Focacceria to turn it into a new daytime bar with all-day cocktails and food, including tributes to the 120-year-old Italian bakery such as Sicilian rice balls, pane e panelle, and focaccia sandwiches, plus a boozy take on the classic coffee soda, Manhattan Special." - Melissa McCart
"It’s not often that you get to see your favorite closed restaurant come back to life, but fans of Ferdinando's Focacceria are in luck. The chef behind Café Spaghetti, Swoony’s, and Sal Tang’s will revive this beloved Carroll Gardens Italian fixture—which shuttered in February after more than 120 years in business—as Bar Ferdinando, featuring some classic dishes from the OG like rice balls and pane e panelle." - bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick

"Taking over the century-old Ferdinando’s Focacceria, Sal Lamboglia will reopen the landmark as Bar Ferdinando, keeping classics like pane e panelle and rice balls while adding new cocktails from Ricardo Echeverri and appointing Giovanna Cucolo to oversee the dining room." - Alan Sytsma
