Strategically located at the corner of Main and Broadway in downtown Nyack, Turiello’s Italian Restaurant has been in the village since 1980 under the ownership of Girolamo (Nino) Turiello. When asked where he lives, he says in the store, although his real home is in Brooklyn.
Nino came to America in 1972 from Bari, Puglia in Italy. In Bari they made focaccia (grandma pizza) instead of Neapolitan-style pizza. Two days after arriving in America he went to enroll in school with his passport and green card. The Brooklyn principal asked if he had a utility bill. Since he lived at his grandmother’s home he could not prove residency. He was told to come back when he could.
