Lady Gagas fans to be disappointed by her parents eatery

Lady Gaga. (Charles Sykes - AP) Lady Gagas parents will open a New York eatery next week named Joanne Trattoria.

But before you start lining up around the block, Little Monsters, Cynthia and Joe Germanotta want to make it clear: This isnt their daughters restaurant.

In an interview with the New York Times, the Germanottas seem to be slightly concerned that their daughters superstar status will threaten the eaterys low key atmosphere.

One tweet and its over, Cynthia Germanotta told the Times her blue eyes widening.

Joe Germanotta said, If [Gagas fans are] expecting to come in here and see Grammys and pictures and stuff like that, its not going to happen.

It may be a little too late to stop the hype. Gaga talked about opening the restaurant with her dad on her Thanksgiving special, which was watched by 5.5 million viewers: It was just always my dads dream to own a place. ... And to watch him open up the restaurant of his dreams ... thats wealth. Thats the dream. Joannes head chef, Art Smith, a celeb in his own right, cooked alongs! ide Gaga during that special.

(Joe Germanotta told the Times that he could have afforded to open the place without Gaga, who is not an owner.)

Another indication that the singers very public statement about Joanne cannot be unheard? Some of comments on the restaurant's Facebook page, the first of which reads, Gaga I [heart] you.

But hey, having too many customers cant be all that bad, right? Even if they arent wearing pants?
