The service at Lupo is very attentive. The menu is about what you would expect but the specials were creative. The wine list is comprehensive and the ambience isn’t too dark but is still cozy and inviting. The food itself was prepared beautifully with good value for the portion sizes. I’m surprised this restaurant isn’t busier than it was for us on a Saturday night.

Beautiful old house with little dining rooms. Service was very friendly. Table next to us was extremely loud throughout the evening and not asked to lower their voices. Salads and octopus were very well played and tasted very good. We asked for our pasta to be spiced up and it was way over the top. So spicy that it was not enjoyable. Expected the food to be better so not sure I would return.

My favourite Italian restaurant. Love the cozy and elegant setting. The servers are knowledgeable and attentive. The food is always good. We had the baby romaine salad, wagyu beef carpaccio and octopus mosaic for appetizers and the wild mushroom Taglierini for our pasta course. Topped off with the tiramisu for dessert. And not to miss the delicious focaccia.

Love the different seating options. Interesting and diverse menu. Lovely choice of wines. Service is appropriate (not too hovering, not unavailable) and helpful in descriptions and pairings.

Because we had theatre tickets we couldn’t stay too long. It would have been nice to be able to linger. I had the special, ravioli, which was excellent.
