What Is Albert Manzo's Net Worth?
Albert Manzo is a New Jersey-based businessman who has a net worth of $6 million. That is a combined net worth with his wife of many years, fellow restaurateur and reality star Caroline Manzo. Caroline is a former star of the Bravo reality television series "The Real Housewives of New Jersey." Together, they co-own and manage The Brownstone, a high-end event and catering service in New Jersey. His brother, Tommy Manzo, is also a partner.

Albert and Caroline currently live in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey. They have three children together: Albie, Lauren, and Chris Manzo. The Manzo family also had a spin-off show on Bravo called "Manzo'd With Children."
Albert's father also had the same name but went by "Tiny" Manzo. Tiny was killed in true mob style in 1983 when it was suspected that he and Peter A. Campisi, the family soldier of the Gambinos, were skimming from a mob casino. They were executed on Staten Island. The cops were never able to solve the murder, and the death of Albert's father is still incredibly difficult for the entire family.
In his free time, Albert loves to golf and spend time on his boat. He supports numerous charity organizations, but closest to his heart is the Wounded Warrior Project, as well as law enforcement and firefighters in New York and New Jersey.
