Fresco by Scotto, owned by the Scotto family, combines fine Italian dining with a touch of star power. The family includes Rosanna Scotto, a local Fox news anchor, and patriarch Anthony Scotto, a former labor leader once accused of being a Gambino captain. On January 17, 1979, Scotto was indicted, and later convicted for 33 federal bribery and racketeering charges. Scotto remains connected to influential figures, with Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance Jr. launching his campaign fundraiser at Fresco.
