Graziella Restaurant

What Graziella Restaurant does

Graziella Pizza & Restaurant is a privately-held, family-owned Italian food business operating a single dual-concept location at 33-25 Francis Lewis Boulevard in Bayside, Queens, New York, established in 1984 and serving the local community for more than 40 years. The operation comprises two fronts: a casual pizzeria open daily offering pizza by the slice ($3.50–$8.00) and whole pies ($21.25–$39.00), plus calzones, heroes, and pasta; and a fine dining restaurant open Tuesday–Sunday from 4pm to 10pm featuring appetizers ($8.95–$21), salads, pasta, chicken, veal, fish, and shrimp entrees ($21–$38) with a full bar serving cocktails, beer, and wine. A trademark Focaccia and Grandma pizza are positioned as proprietary offerings, and ingredients are sourced from local farmers' markets.

The business generates revenue across five streams: dine-in service, pizzeria sales (slice, pie, takeout), full-service catering menus priced $40–$230 per tray, private party and event packages for celebrations and corporate gatherings, and gift cards. Distribution is omnichannel for the pizzeria — direct walk-in, phone orders, contactless delivery, Clover-powered online ordering, and four third-party delivery marketplaces (GrubHub, Seamless, Uber Eats, Slice) — while the restaurant is exclusively direct-order (phone/in-person/private events). Marketing is largely word-of-mouth and community-driven with no formal digital advertising footprint.

The company operates with a 9-employee headcount, has no disclosed revenue figures, no external funding, no parent company, and no public listing. There are no patents, certifications, regulatory actions, or management-team disclosures available in the source material. Ownership appears to be founder- or family-held based on longevity and absence of investor signals, though specific ownership details are not publicly stated.
