and bar areas and back of house to
accommodate higher output.
The Harry's Pizzeria concept is
the brainchild of Schwartz, a James
Beard Award-winning chef. He has
dotted the city with his unique cuisine,
including his flagship restaurant,
Michael's Genuine, which ignited the
Harry's pizza concept. He formed The
Genuine Hospitality Group, operating
a handful of Schwartz brands in South
Florida, Grand Cayman and on board a
select Royal Carribean line.
"I really thought it was an opportunity to make something like Michael's
Genuine with pizza being the focus,
more approachable to everyday people
and families and younger kids that didn't
have the budget to go to a place like
Michael's Genuine," Schwartz says. "So
it gives me all of that creative outlet

alone let's do a bunch of them.'"
With a four-mouth construction

quite the calculated anticipation for the
opening. Coconut Grove differs from
the original Design District location.
The original Harry's borders a highend, luxury shopping area and draws a
cross-cultural clientele.
First impression, Schwartz says, was
key to entering the tightknit Coconut
Grove neighborhood of young families,
Millennials and businesses. Fitting
into the neighborhood required a lot
of frontend engagement before Harry's
opened its doors, demonstrating the
pizzeria's neighborhood focus.
Schwartz and Jackie Sayet, brand
director at The Genuine Hospitality
Group, laid the groundwork by reaching out to community development
leaders, chefs, business owners, residents, Harry's advocates and the Business Improvement District in Coconut
Grove. "It was important to engage
with them and listen," Sayet says.
Harry's also rolled out its mobile
oven to give Coconut Grove a taste of
its menu offerings during construction.
