The Long Island Bar & Restaurant was owned and run for over 50 years by Emma Sullivan, her husband Buddy, and her cousins Pepita and Maruja.  Buddy and Emma took over the bar from Emma’s father, Ramon Montero, who opened it in 1951.  Emma’s and Buddy’s children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren are based in the bar’s surrounding neighborhoods.
