Paola's Restaurant

Paola's Interior

Trent' Anni! 30 Years! Celebrating 30 years of Paola's on Manhattan's Upper East Side in October 2013!

Cent'Anni is a traditional Italian toast that celebrates life and literally means, "May you live to be 100 Years". "Trent'Anni" is our expression of pride in 30 years of devotion to the authentic Italian dining experience.

We look forward to celebrating our loyal clientele with several events featuring food, wine, and festivity in the coming year.
