The Mafia's Favorite Pennsylvania Restaurants (That Are STILL OPEN Today)

0:00 Six historic Pennsylvania restaurants where mobsters ate, argued, and made headlines. 4:11 Ralph's Italian Restaurant 7:06 Villa di Roma 9:54 Radicchio Cafe 12:26 Saloon 15:16 Oregon Diner 18:30 Dante and Luigi's Six historic Pennsylvania restaurants, one Halloween shooting, and the South Philadelphia stories that still linger between the tables. I visit Ralph's Italian Restaurant, Villa di Roma, Radicchio Cafe, Saloon, Oregon Diner, and Dante and Luigi's, tracing their connections to Philadelphia's organized crime history. I also look at the real events, famous figures, and movie scenes associated with these dining rooms. I separate documented court records and news reports from neighborhood lore, while making clear that none of these restaurants were owned or run by the mob. They are working family restaurants with histories that survived long after the headlines faded.
