NEW YORK CITY — Patsy’s Pizzeria has expanded its footprint in New York City, opening a new downtown Manhattan flagship location in Gramercy Park this month.
Patsy’s Pizzeria, a Harlem institution, is recognized as one of New York City’s original coal-oven pizzerias and credited with inventing the New York pizza slice.

Located within Freehand New York, the 96-seat pizzeriawill serve Patsy’s Pizzeria near-century-old classics such as Classic New York, Margherita, Hot Soppressata, Vodka, Sausage & Peppers and Meatball pies.
Other signature pies include the Spicy ‘Nduja and the White Truffle. Executive Chef Pietro Aletto, the co-owner of Grand Street Pizza, helms the kitchen.
Complementing the menu is a robust beverage program with cocktails that showcase the bel paese’s most celebrated ingredients and liqueurs from Beverage Director David Choi. Signature libations include a clarified Pomodoro Americano, a Pepperoni Martini, the My Way Bellini and an Amaretto Affogato.
In addition, Patsy’s Pizzeria recently entered into a strategic partnership with hospitality entrepreneur Premtim Gjonbalic, Founder and CEO of Promise Hospitality, who plans to expand the reimagined ristorante-pizzeria concept into other markets throughout the country.
The new Patsy’s Pizzeria outpost in Gramercy Park is located at 23 Lexington Avenue and is open Sunday–Thursday from 11 a.m. to 11p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. – midnight.
