Two food Samaritans like to pick up the tabs of random customers whenever the anonymous duo dines at Spigolo on the Upper East Side.
"I was eating at the bar with my parents the weekend of Mother's Day -- and we really splurged -- but when we asked for the bill, the bartender said, 'It's been taken care of,' " Katie Barnhart told The Post. "They also picked up the bill of two women sitting next to us."
When Barnhart asked the bartender to point out the mysterious couple who paid their $200 tab, the bartender told her they had already left.
Lukas, who would not reveal the couple's identity, said it's hard to predict which customers' bills they will offer to pay.
On one hand, it's always great to hear such acts of generosity.
On the other, I'll be mildly disappointed if it turns out it's NOT a hoax set about by the restaurant itself, hoping for a boost in numbers via people hoping they might get a meal on the house. If so, that's fucking genius.
