Lonely Planet review

Even though the original Italian essence is long gone, Mulberry St still bursts with true ethnic pride. Mobster Joey Gallo was shot to death in Umberto's Clam House in the '70s, the old-time bar Mare Chiaro was one of the favorite haunts of the late Frank Sinatra, and the Ravenite Social Club (247 Mulberry St), now a gift shop, used to be the Alto Knights Social Club, where mobsters like Lucky Luciano spent some time.

The Ravenite was also a favorite hangout of John Gotti (and the FBI) before he was arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1992.
