A FAMILY A FARE:
PAUL & JIMMY’S
CELEBRATES 60 YEARS
February 25, 2010, marked the 60th anniversary of Paul & Jimmy’s Restaurant, a
Gramercy
Park fixture known for its hand-crafted, Italian fare. Originally opened in 1950 on
Irving Place by Paul and Jimmy Delgado, the establishment immediately became a home to high-profile diners and
New York locals alike. In 1968, Cosmo Azzollini bought the restaurant from its namesake after working there for many years as waiter. Cosmo and his sons operated the establishment together for several decades and later relocated to its current location on
18th Street.
Since 1997 Louis and Linda Azzollini have owned Paul & Jimmy’s. Their daughter joined them in 1999 and their son Greg followed in 2005. As the 3rd generation to run the restaurant, Greg Azzollini is a graduate of The
Institute of
Culinary Education and currently serves as Executive Chef. He continues to serve old-country-style Italian dishes, as well as, innovative specials prepared daily. All plates are crafted with the freshest of ingredients, many sourced locally from farmers markets, and well-stocked in portion.
Paul & Jimmy's continually strives to make their customers feel like part of the family. Louis and Greg are always present at the restaurant and look forward to satisfying many more patrons in the coming years.
As a thank you, Paul & Jimmy’s welcomes diners to toast 6 decades of business with a complimentary cordial through March 31, 2010.
Salute!
