Gruppo NYC Thin Crust Pizza

Our photos don’t do justice to the food. Started with Mediterranean Salad which was perfectly dressed with pine nuts. Large pie - 1/2 Shroontown; 1/2 Sausage, basil, caramelized onions. Ended with the bread pudding- which did not disappoint.

If you want some killer pizza in a great atmosphere, this is your place! The pies are made fresh, and you can tell every ingredient is of the highest quality. Amazing wine and beer selections, and the staff is absolutely amazing. Very attentive, courteous, and really go above and beyond to make you feel right at home. 10/10

A friend recommended this place and it was a bit of a surprise. The "thin crust" was really a cracker crust - hard and crunchy all the way. I prefer a thin layer of crust that still bends and feels soft in the mouth. If you like cracker crust pizza - this will enchant and delight. However if you want a crust that is thin yet still bends and gives a softer mouth feel, look elsewhere. Service and ambiance are spot on!

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.

We come here every time we're in New York (at least once a year for the last 5 years). Great food every time - have to get the garlic bread and mushroom pizza!

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.

It's my favorite thin crust pizza place. Delicious salads. We also had meatballs and garlic bread with cheese, which is also very tasty.

Went here for the first time tonight. Gruppo is hands down some of the best thin crust pizza I have ever had. The classic pepperoni has large thinly sliced rounds and wasn’t oily like so many pepperoni pizzas in the city- salty spicy cheesy deliciousness. The veggie pizza had fresh bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, and was loaded with cheese. So good. We also tried the Shroomtown....Wow. Three different types of mushrooms, and just loaded with earthy, savory flavor. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and there to take care of whatever we requested. Side of anchovies?- no problem! Oil and extra cheese on the side?- you got it! Whatever we wanted to mix up and blend together or have on the side, they couldn’t have been more polite, professional and accommodating. The place is also very clean- from the outdoor tables to the charming little bathrooms inside. No wonder this place has been serving up great pies, food and beer since 1999. Really fantastic pizza - and a great evening! Go check them out!!
