I'm solo. No parents, no siblings, no uncles/aunts. But, man, I couldn't imagine a better family. Such compassionate, giving, & well mannered young men. 🍎🍊🍌🥬🫐🍆
My grandmother who recently passed away was born with RP as well and grew up in Queens. She had 5 wonderful girls. She memorized the Monopoly game board and we would play for hours. This special brought back such vivid memories; it feels like this could have been my family. The world is really so small and we have so much in common. Thank you for this! Best wishes to the whole family 🤍
So much love in this family. And their intelligence is incredible to witness. So much warmth and kindness throughout. It makes me happy to know that there are people like this in the world.
Best family ever, so heartwarming, and so much love. Due to mental illness in my family, basically I’m alone. When my siblings and I were younger it was great, but as the teenage years approached so did the mental illness, progressively getting worse as the years pass. I love my family, but it’s just that I can’t have any close loving relationship with them anymore. This video showed me that the family and their love for each other still exists. Thanks for making my evening meaningful.
I would call his son Tony Starch when I found out he was going to Harvard. John is hilarious. Me and my buddies have had some fun and random times there.
I’m having a real hard time and this inspires me a lot. God Bless to the family 👍💐🫂♥️ I have visited NYC many times. I was there just last month. I want to dine at their restaurant soon. Stay bless and stay happier. See you real soon 👍💐🫂♥️
Tony should be a shining example for this generation of youth that is growing up as self centered, entitled little narcissist. Life is hard. Take care of your loved ones no matter what sacrifices you need to make. Beautiful family.
You didn't listen? She asked her eldest if he wanted to go to with her or stay with his father. He chose his father so he could be there to help him. And there's no use separating their kids.
What an inspiration these people are. I just hope that the restaurant can survive Bidenomics. As disposable income drops, restaurants are some of the first to feel the pain.
I really enjoyed this video…..except for the cursing. I stopped watching other videos of yours for that very reason. Sorry, and I realize that I am probably in the minority. 🤷♀️ buuuut hey, I don’t think it’s necessary to make a relevant video!
Beautiful family. Congratulations on getting into Harvard, Tony! You are so deserving. I can’t even imagine how proud your dad must be.
get this mans son a chef coat. he deserves every bit of it. hoping this blows up. congrats on harvard!
Thank you NewYorker for this, otherwise we would have never had the privilege of meeting such an outstanding family.
@Brownpsy496...
Are they REAL?
@@SKratch-jx4mb some of the nicest people I’ve ever met
His son is my hero. OMG
My boss and I went to lunch here last week. Nice people working here I’m happy to give them business.
Instead of forcing people to conform to "normal" we should embrace the differences and unique gifts, talents, and abilities given.
John and his family are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
This whole family has THE BEST and pragmatic approach to life ever. You are all an inspiration,thank you.
Bravo to everyone involved in this project! What an amazing story!

Any chance for a follow up?
Tony should be a shining example for this generation of youth that is growing up as self centered, entitled little narcissist.
Life is hard. Take care of your loved ones no matter what sacrifices you need to make. Beautiful family.
For a blind guy he seems very high functioning abd very good at what he does
He's incredibly high functioning! I went there only a couple of times but I always enjoyed his company and the food wasn't bad either!
very cool love it
Their “non-victim” mentality is refreshing and inspiring.
I've been to that dinner a lot and I never saw him there.
Is a great place to be.
Outstanding inspiring he is better than some sighted people 👏👏👏👏❤️👍
🙏🏾💝💜🇨🇺🇯🇲🇺🇲 GREETNS WORLD, HAPPY 2024! DJ, UR GIFT IS PRECIOUS, ME LAUGHED AND LAUGHED, BLESS UR BIG BEAUTIFUL♥️!
cool stuff 😎 🆒️
he now needs a good security system..
wow
The mother just gave up all three children? In wonder if they still have a relationship with her.
Yeah it’s sus AF that she is never mentioned.
You didn't listen? She asked her eldest if he wanted to go to with her or stay with his father. He chose his father so he could be there to help him. And there's no use separating their kids.
gorgeous
Only the New Yorker to come up with stuff like that.
Whys it keep going black screen? Irritating
To give you a sense of how it feels to walk in his shoes.
👏👏👏
💕💕
Where is the Mom?
Where’s the mom tho
This guy was my waiter when ate her last and he was really nice
