Part of Respect Hospitality

Acclaimed chef Marc Forgione expands his restaurant group with the opening of One Fifth in the historic Greenwich Village's One Fifth Avenue building, an address rich with history. The restaurant draws influence from Marc’s Italian-American family with the menu paying respect to both Italian tradition and New York’s surroundings, including a focus on local ingredients from the Union Square Greenmarket.

One Fifth marks the first opening under Marc's new hospitality group, Respect Hospitality, established in partnership with Apres Cru Hospitality and includes Peasant and Restaurant Marc Forgione. Marc has always lived and worked by the mantra of ‘respect’ as it touches so many aspects of hospitality, from ingredients to history to employees to the art of service and more.
