Absolutely fantastic meal at Lupa! Excellent service and food from start to finish. Highly recommend the meatballs with ricotta and the Bucatini all' Amatriciana with guanciale. Great ambiance, perfect spot for a romantic date night.

A great local find! Staff is very friendly and quick, casual atmosphere and food is really really good as well as wine selection. We tried two different types of white wine and they were both fantastic. For appetizers, we started with prosciutto with mozzarella and then shared two types of pasta and a side of Brussels sprouts. The linguine was their daily special. Will definitely go back

Upon entering the front desk staff were extremely welcoming Very charming wait staff We enjoyed the escarole salad, although I found it a bit cumbersome, since it was knuckle of the small pieces. The meatballs were absolutely excellent. We should two different orders of pasta be Pappardelle Bolognese and the fettuccine With peas both were prepared perfectly We ordered a steak, which is flavorful, but I found it. Very tough, the broccoli Rabe, which accompanied it, also barely cooked. The salmon dish was delightful. Overall, a very nice environment will be back

Great little Italian spot if you're in the soho/west village area! Stopped in here for lunch and the ambiance was chic and cozy. Our server was attentive and polite. The food portions were big and left us feeling incredible full. The steak and broccoli rabe felt a tad over salted and oily. Would recommend for a nice lunch or cute dinner date.

I've been here twice in the past several years and it's very good. Not the best Italian in the West Village, but there is tough competition around. I would not steer anyone away from here, just manage your expectations accordingly. Came here for a business dinner last week, so we got to try a large cross-section of the menu: burrata, meatballs, octopus, prosciutto, arancini, and roasted beets. Standouts were the octopus (this is very hard to get right), and the roasted beets. Definitely order those. For dinner, I had a primi and a secondi (I could only fit in two bites of the secondi, but it was great the next day) - Primi: cacio e pepe with gluten-free pasta - this was great. I'm not sure what the pasta was made of. It was an interesting consistency, but it was still good and satisfied my cacio e pepe craving. - Secondi: the lamb - wow! Definitely get this. I'm Greek and have high standards for lamb and it was even good the next day. We also ordered a few bottles of wine. The Sommelier helped. He was an interesting person. Couldn't tell if he was annoyed with us or not, but his flavor descriptions were spot on and we did order a bottle of red that was fantastic (see pics). It was a good noise level, too. Overall, this is good for groups or a date night.

I love Italian food and couldn't wait to try this restaurant. When I arrived I parked on the street not too far. When I walked in, I was greeted by James the host, and he was very nice. The restaurant was so cute! Adrian was the bartender, Marco was my server, and Ian was the GM. They were all great! I started with an espresso martini, which was great. I then had an amazing red wine. For my appetizer, I had the Arancini di Mozzarella, and it wasn't bad. It was nice and cheesey. For my meal, I got the Black Spaghetti with Spicy frutti di mare. I really enjoyed my entrée. It was very different and melted in my mouth. I really enjoyed the food, drink and service!
