Gruppo NYC Thin Crust Pizza

"One of the best pizza pies I have ever had. The atmosphere was fantastic and the staff friendly and welcoming. Able was a perfect host. I give this place a five star review and we will be back!"

"The pizza was unique and tasty. However, the bench seats were quite uncomfortable, feeling like sitting on an edge."

"Great pizza, great pasta, great staff! They were so helpful and accommodating when I brought my grandmother! I will be back soon!"

"I was walking to go do my laundry and damn near broke my neck at the happy hour sign out front of this place. "Free Large Plain Pizza with the purchase of any wine bottle or beer pitcher." SAY LESS! My big bro had just gone on a few dates with the same girl, so we had a debriefing meeting over some pinot noir and pizza, like true savants. I won't go into great detail because big bro would beat me up, but he casually mentioned he and his lady friend had 6 drinks each at one restaurant. Mind you this was the 1st date. Like dawg 6 drinks would have me and my pockets ROCKED. But I guess that's why he's big bro! Back to the topic. Normally, when I eat pizza and drink I am taken out for the next 6-8 hours, as my body is fighting a war to digest all those calories made up of cheese, bread, and alcohol. I didn't have this problem at Gruppo as the pizza is ULTRA thin. It is almost flatbread with a cracker like crust, cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of crisp. It's ideal for the rockstar skinny look I am going for these days. The staff was extremely accommodating, as they checked in on us multiple times to make sure we didn't miss the happy hour window. That's Love Speech. I couldn't have imagined a cozier setting to just talk the night away, bonding with my big bro over some wine and pizza. Bottles of wine start at around $40 while pitchers of beers start around $30. An ideal place to go with a big group."

"Although my experience was overall satisfactory at Gruppo, I have to stop just short of giving it 5 stars. We sat at the bar and engaged in some light conversation with the barmaid who normally works at a different Gruppo location. She was courteous, attentive and professional. She even helped us with our orders as my buddy and I had never eaten here but he heard the pizza was great. I ordered the white personal pizza. That pie came with arugula and added a split of bacon and spicy sausage toppings. The combo of toppings with the white pie and arugula was absolutely delicious. Unfortunately I found that the crust itself, although very thin, had very little flavor to offer to my combo of toppings."
