Restaurants come and go all the time. After one closes, most people eventually forget it ever existed. Did you know Old Town Fort Collins used to have a Jimmy John's? You probably had to think about it. Still, some eateries stand the test of time — even after they're long gone. This is the case for Pagliacci's, a famous Italian restaurant that sat at 1440 W. 33rd Avenue in Denver until 2012.
Let's reminisce. According to a goodbye article from The Denver Post, a produce vendor named Frank Grandinetti founded the Mile High staple in 1946. His family continued to run the restaurant before closing it after 66 years, leaving customers with lasagna-shaped holes in their hearts.
