BAYSIDE, QUEENS A Queens restaurant had its liquor license suspended after an investigation into what state officials called a potential superspreader holiday party hosted by the Whitestone Republican Club earlier this month.
Little Neck restaurant Il Bacco was cited for multiple pandemic-related violations including indoor dining in a fully-enclosed rooftop space and staff improperly wearing masks following a Dec. 23 investigation by the New York State Liquor Authority, an agency spokesperson told Patch.
The State Liquor Authority issued an emergency liquor license suspension the following day, which is in effect indefinitely pending a review by an administrative judge.
