Remembering Tony Bennett: He loved to eat ravioli in North Beach

[@Rascal77s]

I had the chance to see him in concert and I'll always treasure that. The end of an era. RIP Mr. Bennett.

[@diannemarshall4078]

Iwill never forget the song The Shadow of your smiile. He touched everyones heart. God Bless him. I was born in 52 my MoM was a jazz singer and I had the pleasure of being exposed to our most talented Singers. I know the Angels carried him into paradise.

Tony Bennett loved to sing everywhere around the world but he really loved sanfranciso

[@kanank13]

he was not doing it for free. he got paid in millions. I bet he wuld have sung i left my blah ablah blah blah in somewhere for some town in Africa or middle east if he were paid millions or pepple were listening to his music. SF has been a craapp town for a long time.

[@cynthiah.3015]

I cried 😢when I heard he passed. A part of my childhood died when Tony died. My parents played his music 🎶 as I was growing up. My Dad 😍 loved him which made me love ❤him.

[@ThompsonSmith-dd2lo]

Hello Cynthia How are you doing today?

[@silva7493]

Over the decades I've heard many people who had various levels of interactions with Tony, long and short, and they've all said he was really, truly, a decent and very nice man. He did love to make people happy by performing for them. but I suspect his favorite occupation was making art, and his art was/is really quite beautiful. RIP Tony, and condolences to his family and his many friends.

Why I don't know this restaurant in North Beach baffles me. Looks great.

12:07 am. Tony Bennett is a blessed man who made his fans happy to watch him sing. He succeeded in his career. May he rest in Spirit.

[@nancymonan5549]

Tony Bennett One of a Kind ✝️🙏

[@kauaiboy5o]

"1961, Bennett, a New Yorker, was performing at the SF Fairmont Hotel's Venetian Room where he met Ralph Sharon, a pianist at the hotel. Ralph thought the song "I Left My Heart in San Francisco," would be a perfect fit for Bennett's style and voice." It's Bennett's only connection with SF. He always lived in NYC/East Coast. Interesting.

[@ariloves10]

RIP Tony and San Francisco 😢 🙏🏼

[@fredingram3731]

Exactly...

[@raimondosaracino8185]

Rest in peace tony BENEDETTO.

[@Bingewatchingmediacontent]

Locals don’t call it “Carl the Fog.” Only transplants use that phrase

[@cardinalstar2048]

His best song was "Have I told you Lately"? Put it on your record player tonight ❤🎶

Juliette Goodrich Rocks! I love her reports! I learned from her that the Covid shots in the begging ~ were researched at Stanford University as a treatment for Long Covid. I got mine at home, and my LC went away ... Kudos to Juliette Goodrich 🎉🎉🎉

[@BHallBrowser]

He was so good to Amy Winehouse, and other young stars.

[@sulevisydanmaa9981]

JOHNNY HARTMAN departed in 83. He was miles ahead from this man. Erraneously, he was also called The Black Sinatra. He was miles ahead and above also from that man. 18 topnotch jazz vocal lps nearly without a hint of white pop influence, the crown-jewel being the 63 album w Trane. Where was the mainstream media mourning him ? On the moon ! Equal rights ? And once there was also EARL COLEMAN - 5 lps in 35 years; saw him @ Northsea JF 87. Suggest listen the Big Joe Turner version from 1976 on his Pablo lp of "I left my heart (under the urban removal of the Fillmore ..)." etc. He was also an out-of-the-citier, like T.B. but captured the essence of the ...hymn. Similarly, Buddy Guy :"Hello, San Francisco" (1970) on Vgrd. Saludos desde 🇫🇮

[@carolscholp3659]

Get your facts straight Tony Bennett first performed I Left My Heart in San Francisco in Hot Springs AR

[@NeedToKnow1947]

He and KD Lang were an amazing duo ❤

[@carolynhamilton9728]

What was his favorite North Beach restaurant?

[@cheems5643]

Idk who this guy is but rip Alzheimer’s is an awful way to go

[@manonamission2000]

🤎🤎🤎amazing outfit

[@liberty-matrix]

Tony knew that San Francisco died along time ago.

[@kanank13]

I left my poopin San Francisco is a more appropriate song during the these times.

[@therealpinoyhapa]

It's a very different San Francisco now. Shootings in North Beach adds to the already high crime-ridden city. I am sure if he was aware of the insanity of the city, he would think twice about leaving his heart in dangerous SF.

[@jameshw9751]

Nonsense. SF is no more dangerous than any other large city.

[@therealpinoyhapa]

@@jameshw9751 That's entirely your opinion.

[@jameshw9751]

@@therealpinoyhapa It’s a statistical fact.

[@therealpinoyhapa]

@@jameshw9751 NO WAY!!!!

[@briangoodspeed8807]

I worked with him, not a nice person backstage after shows, a poser.

[@bubbaschwartz]

Everyone cashing in on the death of Tony Bennett the owner of the Italian restaurant shows no respect. You tell the story short and sweet you don't advertise your raviolis this is about the passing of a great singer not telling people about the food being sold on the menu. Media is to blame as well for letting the story go on the air.

[@kanank13]

so Tony is a Holy MOly saint now?

[@bubbaschwartz]

@@kanank13 This has nothing to do with being holy it's common sense not to advertise your food menu when the subject is about the passing of someone.

[@ATOMFUCKINWEST]

We can all agree that Tony Bennett was amazing and will be missed by millions... But who's with me when saying that Sara Donchey is EASILY one of the prettiest women on the planet???????!!!!! I mean, sheeeeeeesh..... Sorry, just sayin'.
