Wantagh Native Emilio Vitolio is part of the fourth season of "Sweet Home Alabama," which airs Fridays at 9 p.m. on CMT.
Vitolo, 25, was born and raised in Wantagh before moving to New York City, and he's a graduate of Wantagh High School. He helps run his family's restaurant, Emilio's Ballato, in Little Italy.
According to Newsday, Billy Joel, Justin Bieber and Rihanna have all dined at his restaurant.
From CMT's website:
As far as Emilio is concerned, there is nothing better than being Italian because they are the best in all industries, including cars, cooking, clothing and more. His father wants him to go to Italy to find a wife, but Emilio would rather find a Southern country girl with values that his family will love.
