La Pulpería 44th HK is a lively restaurant located on the corner of 9th and 44th in Hell's Kitchen, near the theaters. The spacious interior includes outdoor seating and a large sit-at bar, accommodating larger groups with reservations. Known for its specialization in seafood, the menu features standout dishes like oysters, pulperia (octopus), and paella. Some reviewers suggest increasing the seafood variety and avoiding certain preparations, like cooking paella in coconut milk or drowning ceviche in cocktail sauce. The restaurant also offers a happy hour.
La Pulpería 44th HK is known for its fun drag brunch, featuring exceptional entertainment by talented drag queens. However, recent experiences indicate some issues with reservations and service. Guests have reported problems with their bookings and delays in service, despite enjoying the quality of drinks and food. The grilled octopus has been highlighted as possibly the best, but the atmosphere can be quite warm and noisy, making it less ideal for dinner conversations. Overall, while the food and entertainment are praised, some customers feel that management could improve their handling of mistakes and service challenges.
