Sbarro is a U.S.-based chain of pizza restaurants that sells pizza and other Italian dishes. The chain specializes in New York-style pizza, selling mostly "by the slice".
History
Sbarro’s roots go back to Naples, Italy where for Gennaro and Carmela Sbarro the art of crafting Italian cuisine was a way of life. The couple and their three sons, Mario, Joseph and Anthony, immigrated to America in 1956 to pursue their dream of owning a successful business in the U. S. In 1956, the Sbarro family opened their first Salumeria (an Italian grocery store) in Brooklyn, which became popular for its specially fresh food and genuine Italian fare, including homemade mozzarella, imported cheese, and sausage and salami. Their Sbarro Italian Delicatessen in Brooklyn, N.Y. was well received by the local community and was the first of a very successfully chain.[2]
The success of the Sbarro Salumeria led to the opening of more locations throughout the New York City area. In 1967, Sbarro opened its first mall-based restaurant in Brooklyn's Kings Plaza Shopping Center, marking the beginning of the modern Sbarro concept: Italian food in an open kitchen that allowed for fast self-service. Over the last 50 years, the King's Plaza business model has been replicated some 1,000 times - helping Sbarro expand throughout the U.S. and the rest of the world.
In early 2007, Sbarro was acquired by MidOcean Partners, a private equity firm with offices in New York and London.[3] In 2008, Sbarro is rated the #1 Quick Service Restaurant in the Italian segment by Entrepreneur magazine for five out of the past six years.[4]
