When I booked the reservation, I requested seating in the front of the restaurant. However, they seated us in the back room. The meat platter appetizer and beets were great, but the calamari was a lot of grains and very little calamari, but it was ok. They need to bring back the wine Stewart because the waitress selections we very poor and she did not listen to what we were requesting. The food / wine pairing was unsatisfactory this visit. We went there for the Braciola and it was poor at best. It was burnt on the bottom, cold, tuff and they did not stuff it like the last time we were there. All the sauce and stuffing was on the top, not inside it and it was bitter. We are from CA. and we make it a point to visit Lupa?s every time we are in NYC, but this will be our last time there. Mario B. where are you? You need to monitor this restaurant!! If you?re thinking about going to this restaurant, think twice.
