When you think of Little Italy's Mulberry Street, two things might come to mind: pasta and tourists. It's because of the latter that some restaurant managers aren't too worried about congestion pricing impacting their bottom line.


"For me, it's not really concerning," said Casa Bella manager Marco Forgia. "Because we work 90% with tourists. The tourists get the train, not a car. We have few locals."


Down the block, inside Gelso and Grand, manager Fee Bakhtiar holds a similar view.
