    Upon arrival they had complimentary valet which was great due to the poor weather. We checked in with the friendly hosts and were seated in Joey's section right away. Joey our server, was one of the most energetic happy waiters we have ever had, felt like friends by the end of our meal. We ordered one of their pasta specials as an appetizer (white truffle pasta) and it was worth every dollar. For our meals, the Spinalis Cut (Rib cap) medium and Australian Wagyu Ribeye medium with mashed potatoes and crispy Brussels. Everything we ate was prepared perfect and every bite was top notch. For dessert we had the S'mores which was incredible too with a couple single espressos. Jasper Stone impressed us with its Valentine's Day decorations, flawless service and incredible food. We absolutely recommend coming here and can't wait to come back multiple times, they absolutely earned our repeat business!

    We had a wonderful experience. The service was very attentive and offered suggestions on their food menus. Our server, Mario was the best on with his suggestion.. We shared a wonderful salad. For our entrees I had the lobster ravioli and my wife had the linguine. Both dishes were excellent and we look forward to our next visit…. And we definitely will be back !

    Excellent experience. The mozzarella appetizer with charred broccolini and roasted red pepper, the baked eggplant, shrimp far diavolo and the chocolate ravioli dessert were all fantastic. The dessert came with “happy anniversary” in chocolate which was so nice. The ambience is lovely and all the staff so friendly. Can’t wait to go back.

    Fantastic meal all around. Roman gnocchi is always a must, the artichoke appetizer was delicious as well. The pizzas and pasta speak for themselves and are some of the best in NJ. The pistachio tiramisu was a great finish to an amazing meal. When my wife and I are celebrating special occasions, we always find ourselves at La Lupa. Keep up the great work.
