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!

    The worst experience of my life. I made a booking for 8.30. Had to wait 20 min to get a table. Sat there at our table for 30 min no one gave us a menu or acknowledged us there. Not one waiter even came to us. We left and went to butcher boys were we got a table in 2 mins with top service. Will never go to Lupa osteria ever again. Awful experience there.

    What an unpleasant experience. The ambience was incredible, but the waitress serving us was a trainee and clearly had no idea about anything and was not trained properly. She was an absolute sweetheart but could not take care of our table at all- dirty plates and cutlery were left on the table, items were forgotten, she told us the restaurant had no cream (at an Italian restaurant?), she did not know what a napoletana sauce was and our food order was mixed up. The grilled kingclip and hake were also inedible. Such a disappointing experience considering we usually have an amazing time at Lupa. The manager was great though, he checked in on us and offered a few solutions to make up for the 2 inedible meals.
