Upupa Coffee Wine Restaurant In Breno

07/10/2025: The food was excellent. The service was terrible. Poorly organized.

05/10/2025: Lunch with friends, Sunday. We had reservations, and luckily, because we arrived at 12:30, there were only a few tables occupied, and soon after, customer after customer started coming in, many even lingering at the entrance waiting for a free table. The place has tons of Michelin stickers on the door, including a sticker from the winner of "4 Ristoranti" (a TV show), but you can't live on fame alone! You have to maintain it. Medium/high prices, the quality is worth it, even if the portions are small. €5 for the cover charge seems a bit excessive, though! The staff was very kind, no complaints. But the wait was interminable! Between the appetizer and the first course, a good hour passed. It was as if we were at a wedding reception! We were leaving at almost 2:30 PM, and there were still people waiting to be seated. I don't know if they had kitchen problems, or if they weren't expecting so many people (it's Sunday, though. One can imagine), but the fact is that such a wait is intolerable. I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be back.
