La Lupa

We enjoyed another great meal at La Lupa on 9th Feb. I was a little concerned from the recent poor reviews, and while the service is slow the food was as good as ever. The bruschetta, pizzas and meatball spaghetti were amazing! Oh and the tiramisu was great! Although the service is slow I actually quite enjoyed not being rushed to order and so it made for a very relaxed evening.

It’s a real shame to write this review as we’ve dined here many times. However here we go. Our party of of 9 dined recently. We were one of only 3 tables on a Saturday night, already very different from the packed venue we are used to. Food took 2 hours to come, was mediocre at best and some dishes were cold. We can only assume a change of kitchen personnel and really hope this gets back to how it used to be. But for now we’re avoiding it until we read better reviews

We've eaten at this small family run Italian many times, something has clearly changed since our last visit. The service was appalling, took nearly 2 hours for the food to arrive, then it was cold, I ordered a coke and a lime and soda, both had no fizz at all. All our party felt the same, we won't be back

Awful trip here, took two hours for the food, hair in the starter which was blamed on us as apparently the chefs were all bald but when I walked out to get some fresh air they all had black hair which was in the food. Food was awful bland and our sides arrived 10 minutes after the mains arrived , when we made a complaint we kept being told it’s our fault. Avoid it.

First time diners….overall, Cosy place, friendly service, great food. Fillet steak cooked to perfection, spicy potatoes were great. Plenty of tasty king prawns in the pasta dish, and my son loved the bolognaise. Would highly recommend and visit again

I cannot put into words how much I love la lupa ❤️ the food is so delicious, the staff are the nicest in the world, me and my boyfriend always choose here for a date night. They always remember everyone who has been before and ask you questions about whatever you told them last time, they show a real genuine interest in you and they are so thankful for your custom. Last time they designed a meal around me because I was unsure whether I would like the blue cheese sauce and it was SOOO GOOD mouth watering thinking about it!! Honestly a delightful experience every time xxxx

We booked this restaurant expecting an old traditional style restaurant experience with great atmosphere, plenty of laughter, good service and delicious food. Unfortunately we did not experience any of the above, the restaurant is tired and stuck in a time zone. On arrival we were not welcomed and told to sit in the corner, when we asked the weighter to light the table candle he responded I do not smoke and walked away. We were sat on a table that had stained disposable table cloths which had been clearly used prior to our arrival and witnessed people leaving and new arrivals being sat on tables without removing dirty disposable cloths or the table being wiped. The carpet on the stairs as you go up to use the lavatory needs replacing, as it is filthy. We did not feel any energy or excitement from the staff. The food is average and overpriced, the tirimisu tasted like it had been sat in a fridge for a week (the worst I've ever tasted) I took one mouth full and I wouldn't try it again. Overall really disappointed with the service the place needs fresh blood and updating. Shame really as we left feeling deflated and disappointed. Gordon Ramsey would have a field day as this place could be something special which I have no doubt it once was.

Tonight La Lupa was full, in fact they had to turn people away. This did not affect the excellent food and service which we got once again. We would definitely recommend this restaurant. Which is a shame because my recommendation might encourage you to go there and then I might not be able to get a table next time. Joking apart it's really good.
