Our Company:

The Group is a collection of restaurants based in New York City, embodying passion, integrity and excellence. Inspired by the simplicity of Neapolitan cuisine, Olio e Piu brings Italian tradition to the vibrant intersection where Sixth and Greenwich avenues meet Christopher Street, offering a true sense of Mediterranean liveliness in the heart of Greenwich Village.

As an authentic trattoria, its cuisine is based on classic Italian dishes, with a focus on house-made pasta, hand-stretched pizza, and entrees like Branzino and Vitello Alla Milanese. The open dining area, traditional wood-fired oven, rustic interior, thin-crust Neapolitan-style pizza, and carefully selected wine and cocktail list bring a piece of old-world Italy to a renowned corner in the Village.

Our concepts are intricate and intentional. As we grow in New York City, we are also growing across the US! We are proud to have invested in the city over the past 10+ years and are looking forward to creating future spaces that embody our passion for timeless tradition.
