Airport restaurateur The Grove, Inc. (TGI) this week opened Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) in the Terminal 1 MSP Mall.
TGI, which hosted a grand opening last week, partnered with ACDBE partner M2 Concepts, LLC. to open the restaurant.
“We are thrilled to expand our MSP operations to include Settebello Pizzeria & Bar,” said Nina Madonia, CEO of TGI. “We welcome travelers to this beautiful location to enjoy our delicious authentic Napoletana-style pizza and drinks.”
Settebello was created to bring authentic pizza from Napoli, Italy to the western United States. Each pizza is made to order in minutes, with choices such as Margherita, Quattro Formaggi, Bianca, and Salsicca made with local sausage.
The MSP location is the first Settebello restaurant in Minnesota. “Settebello is excited to partner with The Grove. Our relationship started over five years ago,” said owner Michael Brooks. “Working together we know we will create a very special experience for the travelers in MSP Airport and add to their stellar portfolio.”
The location also brings a full bar to MSP, featuring draft, canned and bottled beers, hard seltzers, wine and cocktails. Guests can cozy up to the bar, sit down in groups, or grab a meal to-go.
“We’re excited to expand our partnership with The Grove in their development of a new Settebello for MSP Airport’s Terminal 1 Mall,” said Isabella Rhawie, assistant director of concessions and business development for the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC), which operates MSP. “Settebello hits the sweet spot for what our travelers are craving, with high-end quality pizza and other menu items, sourced locally, and made-to-order quickly for customers who can choose sit-down or take-out options.”
TGI offers a variety of food and beverage options at over 50 locations nationwide. Settebello has five locations in the western U.S., with MSP being the first airport location.
