New York City has long been a culinary melting pot thanks to the immigrants who arrived from Europe in the 19th century. From Little Italy to Chinatown, the impact of settlers on the food scene is still evident today. However, it may surprise you to learn that the oldest Italian restaurant in the U.S. is not on the East Coast. It's in northern California.
San Francisco is the home of Fior D'Italia, which opened in 1886. While other restaurants in America may be older, Fior d'Italia holds the record as the country's oldest Italian restaurant. California had only been a state for 36 years when the founder of Flor D'Italia, Italian immigrant Angelo DelMonte, journeyed to the West Coast for the same reason so many others had made the trek: gold. However, things didn't turn out exactly as planned.
