What sad, sad news. My husband's family has been going to Little Charlie's since at least the 50's. He and I went there on one of our first dates over 25 years ago and have taken our children many times since. Little Charlie's is an institution - a treasure from old NY. What a waste to have it replaced by a bit of smut. As if there isn't enough of THAT in the world already. Surely Sting and Bowie have better things to do than destroy the type of family businesses that are at the very heart of New York. What's next, DeRobertis? I hope Little Charlies reopens. The food will be wonderful regardless of the location.
