Peter Mascrokalos, 43, didn't tell the couple — known from "Real Housewives of New Jersey" — anything about his personal life when they came into Molos Restaurant in Weehawken on Saturday.

The Gorgas might be happy to know, though, that their act of kindness has enhanced their waiter's American Dream.

"Besides the generous gesture, they were very nice and it was an absolute pleasure to have them at Molos," said Mascrokalos, who moved to the U.S. from Greece years ago for a brighter future.

" People like the Gorgas make you feel great about what we do in the hospitality business."

As for the money? It's going to his two children.
