Review Lupos Restaurant - Cape Town Central

Wanja Coetzee
Best pasta in town! Very flavourful! Highly recommend! I always visit them for their Alfredo pasta with extra added pineapple for a hint of sweetness! Trust me it's amazing! Love it! I also took a take away pizza. The pizza was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. Just another good pizza. I have visited a few authentic Italian pizza places before and this pizza didn't have the signature Italian flavour. Don't get me wrong, the pizza is still delicious. Just don't expect super special Italian pizza flavours. The atmosphere is always so warm and welcoming. The waiters are also very helpful and well informed. Will definitely see me again soon for some pasta

My wife wanted to visit this Italian restaurant for quite a while now, as she heard such wonderful reports. Unfortunately, we didn't have such a wonderful experience today. It started with terrible background music of a lady screaming- completely unrelated music- sorry not music - noise. We really got the sense our waitres didn't want to be there, wasn't friendly & we waited a loooong time for our drinks & then later also for our food order. It wasn't busy maybe 4 or 5 tables - so there wasn't a real reason why we had to wait so long. She got my wives order wrong- my wife asked for bacon instead of ham- and asked for 'Penne'. When she started bringing our food to the table , she remembered the bacon instead of the Ham & quickly asked the kitchen to change it. This resulted that we were halfway through our meal before my wives' food came. When it did eventually come, we saw that it wasn't Penne but Fettuccine. My wife said that it was fine and the food was really tasty & good. So it was mainly the terrible music & poor service that left us a bit disappointed. The food was good though.

Best gnocchi ever (gnocchi del sol). It was the second time I ordered it. Pizzas were great too. The service was excellent.

Had one of our best meals this evening. Incredible food. Our waiter, Lionel, was amazing. Made our dining experience even better. Thanks Lupa Osteria and Lionel.

What an exciting experience! I loved the lively atmosphere, and the service was very good. My boyfriend and I both had the “Lupa signature pasta”, which I would definitely recommend! Not only does it taste great, but it’s something I’ve never seen before! Such a wonderful experience, I would definitely recommend going here!

Excellent food and service. I had the Porcini Panzerotti and it was extremely tasty. A mushroom flavour overload. And the Wilted Spinach with Butter & Parmesan on the side was delicious. Highly recommended dish.

Don't often venture out for graze in the Northern pastures, but when we do, we do it with gusto. Googled some of the eateries that side and the parm wheel always been on the radar, so found Lupa Osteria which does a lil homemade pasta and the infamous parmesan wheel Carbonara. Sexy spot with modern decor and nice touches with their branding and modern New York style booth seating etc. Was quiet for lunch this day but service attentive and good knowledge on the produce and dishes. Opted for the spinach ball fettuccine with chilli, creamy and good but could have bit more vooma flavour wise. Bolognese had a bit of a creamy base, but was extremely moreish with great flavours. We also got the waitress to fire up the parm wheel and had a bit of the Carbonara- great little display and worth the excursion, was good, hearty, creamy and have ticked it off the bucket list *is on the pricier side, but was worth trying. Fresh condiments to bolster the pastas or pizzas if needed. Pizzas also looked really good, but for another time.

A simple yet elegant interior design. Friendly staff welcome you and make sure you are attended to throughout the evening. I appreciated the homemade pasta. It makes for an enhanced taste experience. Located within the Durbanville Village Square complex. Ample parking space is available either in front of the restaurant or else in the underground parking garage. Perfect place for dining on your own also.

My favourite restaurant, have visited quite a few times now. I always go for their trio of stuffed pasta (vegetarian) and it's so delicious - pizza is a win as well, and they also have great-tasting cocktails. We love to go for the Sunday - Monday pizza special, which is a great save! I have to admit, every time we have been there, their service isn't super fast (a tad bit slow)/ however it isn't really something that bothers us that much, as the staff is always friendly and food is worth the wait.

Had to be a 5 for me... Not just for the really good food, but the amazing service. We really enjoyed our starters and mains, in hindsight we ordered too much food but everything was delicious. The service was amazing, we were well taken care of and it was prompt and efficient. My wife needed the ladies, which is in the centre and not the restaurant itself and the waitress walked her there and then waited for her and walked her back.

Delicious food and great service. From the milkshakes to pizza, pasta and dessert I was nothing but IMPRESSED. They've definitely earned a spot in my top 3 Italian restaurants in Cape Town!

Pizza Romulus and Pasta wheel was amazing! Had the crêpes and cremino, every cal worth it. Best part, toddler got dough and cutters to entertain herself

Another good evening spent with friends. We were greeted well by the friendly hostess and seated promptly. We had a table for 8 pretty much in the middle of the restaurant but a bit closer to the kitchen. Nice setting and atmosphere with a full house. We had some starters and cocktails which were very nice. For mains we ordered a variety of dishes from the burger to the steak to the spaghetti and meatballs to the chicken and prawn pasta and the calamari. The steaks were done to perfection and tasted great. The pasta with chicken and prawns or scamorza, was very tasty and filling. Good service from David and with a full restaurant we only waited 25 minutes for mains. We were all happy with our mains. Dessert was simple and yum. Thanks again for a great evening.
