Debbie Reynolds celebrates her birthday at Patsy's!

Debbie Reynolds' birthday may have been April 1st, but last night she decided to have a celebration at Patsy's!

                                                                               Sal with Debbie Reynolds - they've known each other for many years now!

The truth is, this is far from her first visit to Patsy's - in fact, she's been coming into the restaurant for over 60 years. However, last night was particularly special, for two reasons. First off, it's always an honor when someone decides to celebrate their birthday with us. On top of that, she's actually in the area because she's performing at the Tilles Center in Long Island University. Despite being busy with preparations and rehearsals, she found time to come over to Manhattan and have dinner with us. We're flattered!


One of the amazing things about our loyal clientele is that they constantly evoke memories of Patsy himself - last night, Debbie Reynolds brought him up. As she was ordering her dinner, she decided to get clams posillipo... and then began to reminisce about how Patsy had been the one to strongly recommend it to her, many years ago. Every now and then, she orders the dish as a quiet tribute to him.

So Happy Birthday, Debbie, and good luck in Long Island!
