I ate there many times ......a couple on Xmas...
Eat there all the time...what’s the connection to John Gambino
I went to the North Ave location too.... Near North side where I grew up...

I wonder if there are young Spatolas or Gambinos, or even Inzerillos coming up in NY....

I wonder where the Inzerillos stand with Sicily at the moment...

Looked it up on internet. Called Marcello's Father & Sons Pizza. 72 years old pizza place. Predates John Gambino arriving in US. So probably a whole different company

I thought it changed.... it's still there?

You should check out the article...
Reading the article now.

Father & sons has a few locations, they sold the main one off north ave that is now a huge condo building. They still have a location I go to off Milwaukee in Logan Square and another in the burbs up in northbrook.

Logan Square is take out/delivery only. I used to go to the north ave location alllllll the time when I lived in the area
Yes I've heard of it. Never ate their pizza that I know of. I believe I heard commercials on the radio.

Yes, there's four of them listed -- all active. Same name.

Wow this was a great read that was very informative. I was familiar with John Gambino but did not know much about his brothers. This seemed to be a very powerful part of the family seeing that many of the people at the top of the Gambino's are from this crew. I look forward to part two and three.

I have MANY questions.....lol bear with me..

I really like the part on Mannino. If he doesnt go to jail, thanks to Sammy the rat, I think hes actually ranked higher than Cali.


What's you guy's take on Franceso Gambino? Ciccio...

And maybe.... Salvatore Spatola?

I guess it's possible that Mannino would have outranked Cali, if Sammy doesn't turn rat. Mannino was 6 years older than Cali. Does that translate to Mannino would have been named Underboss in 2012 instead of Cali, not a for sure thing.

Thanks! I'll take care of that....sometimes the fingers don't work right!
