OUR STORY

Mob ties? Mob ties

Old school bar showing kid bullets degidio of Degidio's

In 1933, when prohibition ended, Joe "Kid Bullets" DeGidio — a successful bootlegger with a colorful past — opened DeGidio's Royal Bar at its current location on West 7th Street.

Today, the third generation of the DeGidio family keeps the tradition alive — serving the same style of generous, scratch-made Italian-American food that's kept this place packed for over 90 years.

"The authentic, delicious Italian American experience of abundance, squared."

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

A Saint Paul Institution

Great food, great service, and doesn't break the bank. DeGidio's is always wonderful for our family gatherings. Can't recommend it enough.

— OpenTable Review

You come here for comfort and familiarity. You're not going to leave this place hungry — the portions are massive and every item is hearty and filling.

— Fries & Paul

RUN, don't walk to DeGidio's. If you're looking for Italian upscale comfort, this is it. We're still thinking about every bite.
