Giampietro “Lillo” Remia left his job as a pastry chef in Rome “for love.” He moved with his family to Brooklyn, where he opened Lillo Cucina Italiana, a humble neighborhood trattoria. “I was living here for a few years, and really, I [kept] looking for the same place—an Italian place where you can [talk] soccer, politics. And it was not easy [to find],” he said.
He filled this gap when he opened his restaurant, drawing crowds of Italian natives and Brooklyn locals.“In this place, all customers are welcome,” he said. While there’s no alcohol on the menu and space for only a handful of tables, Lillo has won fans for its rustic flavors and homey atmosphere.
