According to Brooklyn Daily:
“It’s going to be a red carpet opening,” said franchisee John Cestare, who owns Big Apple Burger. “We’re going have a huge celebrity opening with the Wahlberg brothers — there are going to be a lot of stars.”
There will be rooftop seating overlooking the amusement area, along with at least one bar. The restaurant will create jobs employing up to 60 people.

Sorry guy’s, Nathans will always be king of Coney Island, but Wahlbergers will be welcome just the same.
Having been born and raised in the same house that my mother was born and raised in Coney Island, I am so happy that the Wahlburg brothers chose Coney Island to open their restaurnt. Having founded the Neighborhood Improvement Organization of Coney Island in 1964, and the Astella Deveopment Corporation of Coney Island in 1975, it will be a gratifying event for me. Perhaps, I’ll get an opportunity to shake the Wahlburg brothers hands, and wish them all the luck in the world on their venture.

I can not wait! I’m giving the kids the day off from school and making it a mental health day !ooming forward to the grand opening! Born and raised in New York and now live upstate ! It will not disappoint the two hour drive ! Were thrilled to welcome you !
I would love to know if they built it with union labor seeing on how they’re family are union members and they’re father was will they hire local people to work there and did they hire local union members to build?
Marky Mark couldn’t get a quick pardon (for his felony arrest & convictions for racist attacks on several adults and school children) in Massachusetts, to get a business license…..so now he has to troll in BKNY to do business.
To this I say him: Since you didn’t want Black people in your neighborhood in Boston, I don’t want you in my hometown in NY…..so get out !
