Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Rao's, NYC's Most Exclusive Italian Restaurant...But Couldn't Get in to Ask | Bon Appétit
"Since 1896 the tiny Italian-American restaurant has been serving up family-style lemon chicken and seafood salad beneath strings of Christmas lights on a corner in East Harlem.
