Lupa Osteria Design Quarter

Great specials (we had the mixed platter with meat, seafood, etc), average service (waitress was a little slow our food was a bit cold when it arrived), otherwise I did enjoy the restaurant. It was very clean not full, perfect location for a Sunday afternoon lunch. 7 out of 10

Great PastaI tried Lupa out for the first time as I have been hearing good reviews about their pasta, and I seemingly cannot fault it.I went on a Sunday afternoon, there was a live band playing so which created a lovely ambiance. Awesome laidback restaurant.

Lupa Osteria DQWe've been meaning to dine at a Lupa Osteria for a while and we can now officially tick it of our listNot only were management and staff extremely friendly and accommodating my OCD for corner seating , the food was exceptional.1/2/3: One of the main reasons I wanted to try @lupa_designquarter is because of what you see in this video. Truffled carbonara served at your table in a torched parmesan wheel , besides it being really cool to watch, it was even better to eat , silky, creamy pasta!4: Fillet escalope served on gorgonzola and bacon risotto. Bf is always a steak guy The fillet melted in my mouth, so tender that he could cut it with a butter knife. He literally did. Best fillet I've tried in a while5: Italian nachos : crispy 3 cheese ravioli and an arrabiatta dipping sauce6: Italian cigars: crispy pastry parcels filled with Parma ham, robiola cheese and rocketIf you're in JHB, this place is a must for a perfect date night

Lupa is a fairly consistent mid-range restaurant which delivers a decent quality of food. We've been there approximately five times thus far and have not been disappointed.

Would have loved to give Lupa full marks as my Hake and spinach with parmesan penne was amazing, super delicious and i will come again to have some more.The fact that they got a order at the table wrong and the inexperience of the staff was very noticeable, lost them a star.The FOOD is 5 star though.
