LUPA Osteria is a bustling Italian restaurant serving authentic food in a warm and inviting setting . Whether you want a delicious bowl of pasta on a random Tuesday, country fresh salad, wood-oven baked pizza or a big celebration dinner with friends, LUPA offers all this and more.

We pride ourselves in staying true to our Italian roots and in keeping traditional Roman cuisine alive. Each Lupa has a designated pasta making & drying room where our fresh pasta is hand-made daily. A wood fired pizza oven is used for truly authentic pizzas and for baking many other traditional dishes for that extra flavour and authenticity.

Our wines list is extensive and offers a great selection of local and imported wine, beer and spirits to accompany your food or have a beautiful cocktail at aperitivo hour!

Benvenuto!

    It was my son's 14th birthday dinner with just me and my daughter. I had short ribs with mashed potatoes. Very tasty, just very fatty (ribs). My son had queen prawns with chips....best meal ever according to him 😋 I can't remember what my daughter had but she enjoyed it thoroughly. Great evening all in all.

    Unacceptably noisy due to really poor interior design so that sound carries throughout the restaurant, made worse by relatively loud background music and a particularly noisy and merry table, but the primary issue is that there is nothing in the design of the restaurant to suppress noise. Have noticed this in other Lupa Osteria restaurants as well so this is a general problem

    The food was amazing and definitely worth the money. Our waiter Kevin was thee best, he made sure our experience was the best. I'm only rating the ambience a 4 because it was a bit noisy due to the birthday party in the restaurant, otherwise I would defs recommend the restaurant.
