Lupo Restaurant & Vinoteca

I had a great evening at Lupo thanks to our server Cristina and the great food. The food was well presented, well seasoned and delicious. The wine menu was very good with a wide range of selection of local and international wines. The pasta was super greasy with lots of oil left on my plate after I finished my pasta. The restaurant is very romantic, but there is no privacy as tables are very close to each other.

I loved the cozy vibe of this place, it is situated in a victorian era home and the ambience was very nice. The food here is pretty good, probably not the best Italian I’ve had in this city, but good enough that I would come back. The texture of the pasta was firm, but could have been a little more al dente and I found that there was a bit too much pasta in relation to the sauce. Their bread was recommend, but I personally did not find it to be that great and the flavour of the salad...

We had a reservation for an early valentines dinner the day before. The overall experience was excelent, from the welcoming entrance to the cozy beautiful interior. We ordered the wagyu beef carpaccio to start; which was fresh, bright and exactly what I wanted. The lamb shank with risi+bisi was beautifully done, fat rendered perfectly; not over or dry in the slightest. The hints of lemon in the risi bisi paired with the lamb wonderfully, also plating was classic and clean with clear attention...

We have been to this restaurant about 5-6 times and have had a lovely experience each time. The food is top quality and delicious. Great service and great wine selection. One of the best Whisky Sours I have had. Highly recommend!
