Favorite thing about Delaware? “The spectacular beach communities in southern Delaware.”
There are few things more iconically Delaware than the special blend and swirl of cheeses on slices from Grotto Pizza. Today, Jeffrey Gosnear leads the charge in overseeing 23 restaurants and commercial real estate holdings in Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania as the business’s president. Over his more than 15 years with the company, Grotto has opened a centralized commissary in Dover, seven new Delaware locations and four restaurants in Maryland. He will oversee the development of a new Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk hotel and Grotto location as well.
