Vintage

Manny's Musical Instruments and Accessories, Inc., or more commonly, Manny's Music, was a New York City music store that claimed to have 'everything for the musician,' and from what we've heard, that was very true. Since opening their doors in Midtown Manhattan in 1935, Manny's amassed a client list of big names in the music industry and they adorned their walls with nearly 75 years of photos of artists and producers who frequented the store. Whether you were a local looking for your first guitar or a drummer in town on a national tour in need of a few new cymbals, Manny's was the place to go until they sadly closed their doors for good in 2009.

When Figlio first opened in 1985, the open air kitchen was revolutionary. Diners could actually watch their pizzas and pastas be made. The back dining room felt more formal; the front dining room allowed for killer people watching as the parade of well-to-do, weirdos and punks that occupied Uptown at the time meandered past; the bar facilitated many a happy hour, jubilant night and made for an ideal meeting of Mr. or Ms. Right.
