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!

    very disappointing experience after coming to Lupa for many years this was the worst. Service slow and disinterested. Noise of kiddies party next door was deafening. could hardly speak to each other. Food average to say the least. No olive oil in an Italian restaurant. Had to borrow of restaurant next door. No Stella Draught despite it being on the menu. Sorry but will think twice before coming back as there are so many nice alternatives where we dont have to put up with the above.

    We had a fabulous time. Being able to take our own wine really made it affordable. Our waiter Cedric was just the best. He could not have been more attentive!!!!

    Ambience lovely. Service very poor - had to get up from the table to locate the waiter each time. Food was very poor - had pasta ravioli with spinach and ricotta - was just minced up spinach with no pasta. Salad dreadful. Very disappointing
