Olio e Piu
AUTHENTIC ITALIAN CUISINE
INSPIRED BY THE SIMPLICITY OF NEAPOLITAN CUISINE
As usual this restaurant is crowded (so I would suggest you to make a reservation) and for good reason their pizza is beyond. I didn’t order pizza this time but I’ve been there several times and their pizzas are my go to.
About the Olive e Piu
Inspired by the simplicity of Neapolitan cuisine, OLIO E PIÙ brings Italian tradition to the vibrant intersection where Sixth and Greenwich avenues meet Christopher Street, in the heart of Greenwich Village. First opened in the summer of 2010, the 74-seat restaurant fronted with a 45-seat open patio surrounded by flowers and greenery, overlooking the magnificent Jefferson Market Library. OLIO E PIÙ offers 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 pastas, hand-stretched pizza, and time-honored favorites such as Caprese salad, fritto misto, and tiramisu. 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.
Consistent with its aim of offering Italian cuisine in all its regional glory, OLIO E PIÙ takes great pride in its pasta offerings, from stuffed and noodle-based pasta to gnocchi. The lineup changes according to the season, but carbonara and tagliatelle Bolognese are on the menu year-round as guest favorites.
