Pasquale Rigolettos
We’d heard that Arthur Avenue is the “real Little Italy” and we’re guessing you have too, and as self-proclaimed pasta aficionados we knew we had to see for ourselves. We started at Pasquale Rigolettos, a neighborhood Italian red sauce joint like you wish they still made ‘em. The staff is insanely friendly, the portions are ginormous, and oh yeah, the owner Pasquale “Patsy” Parello is a known member of the Genovese crime family. So there’s that. No need to worry, but something to consider when deciding how much to tip.
