The area on the west side of midtown Manhattan between 34th and 59th streets is known as Hell's Kitchen because of the prsence of immigrant street gangs during the 19th century. Il Forno Hell's Kitchen restaurant is in the commercial area at 8th Avenue just south of W. 45th Street.
The devilish name on the neon sign is doubly interesting because Il Forno in Italian means The Oven. Thus, this establishment is The Oven of Hell's Kitchen.
