Savona's History: Family & Feeding The Community

The original (and current-day) owner, Emanuel Savona, a native of Sicily, immigrated to the states, New York specifically, at age 17 with a dream of one day being 'successful.'  Now, at age-85, many years and several restaurants later, the Hudson Valley is certainly benefitting from that success.

In a post thanking the Hudson Valley for the 'tremendous love and support' after the Fishkill location opening over the weekend, Savona's shared the following:

Today, as our original founder, Mr. Manny Savona, stands in yet another kitchen of a restaurant that bears his name, we pray he feels the success his seventeen-year-old self sailed across the seas of Sicily for.

Prior to their Hudson Valley-based restaurants and pizzerias, Emanuel and his wife, Cecilia McSweeney-Savona opened bakeries and pizzerias in Brooklyn while raising four children, and eventually welcoming 13 grandchildren.
