Lupo's S&s Charpit - ghamton

I was visiting and determined to get my hometown delicacy. I tried the lamb spiedie with a side of pasta salad. It didn't disappoint, wasn't as hot as I'd like it but ate it anyway. Worth the time, price and wait. The person taking my order didn't seem enthusiastic, the atmosphere could use a make over.

Seems this time of year we see new crews. This year's crew is the best we have experienced in the past 4 years. We hope they all stay! Every aspect improved 100%??

Worst customer service. I called on a Monday to inquire about the price of a pound of lamb spiedies I was informed and I said okay I will have my wife call back when she is available to pick up. Lady said ok. I had my wife call and they informed her they are closed on Monday. Why couldn't she tell me that. So still in the mood for spiedies I called Tuesday at 12:15 for a pound of lamb spiedies and a lamb sub. I was informed that they wouldn't be ready until 1:05-1:10 I said that I have to be back to work at 1:00. The guy told me that wouldn't work he had a full grill and not enough room for a pound of lamb spiedies. I called back and asked to speak to the owner and was told they where unavailable and when I asked when they would be I received no answer. At that point the manager who didn't come to the phone offed to make the spiedies for me.

I’m not sure how this restaurant is still open. What I saw when I tried to buy a meal there turned my stomach! My family ended up throwing our food away and walking out. I’m not sure how the health department hasn’t shut this place down. The floors were filthy. It was so greasy it felt like a skating rink. I saw an employee with the name tag ‘Brenda’ wipe her nose with gloves on and then continued to make food. She was also rude to my party and the next people she was waiting on. The meat was dry and the bun was stale. So GROSS! We will NEVER go back here again. Brenda should be reported to the health department! Go to Spiedi Rib Pitt on Front Street! It’s clean, fast and affordable.

We absolutely love this place. I always kid my last meal would be a cheese burger sub with everything and large cheese fries. The best part is they cook your fries when you get there so they are always hot when you get home
