La Lupa in West End

Buonissimo! The food was delicious, every dish was great on its own, but also paired well with other dishes too. Good quality table olive oil was such a lovely touch. Early dinner BYO option and casual chilled vibe ticked all the boxes for a great night out. The service was friendly and attentive, even the owner was on the floor looking after the customers.

We had a great experience here multiple times. The food is always fresh and authentic and it takes me back home - really enjoyed Cacio e Pepe. The staff is very friendly too. Food : 5/5

Food was great, sadly the $23 Malibu Fresh Cocktail was only a shot of booze mixed with Golden Circle Fruit Cup punch fresh from the tetra pack. Bit of a let down

Just phenomenonal

Staff is very juvenile and inexperienced, we sat there for over 15 minutes with a table full of menus and not a glass of water or a waiter to be seen. I was really looking forward to trying it as iv heard really good reviews but my patience beat my time.

Yet again a wonderful meal. Thank you.

Everything excellent. The staff were super sweet, food delicious, wine selection plentiful. One friend had yummy cocktails. We will all be back.

Southbank was a bust as no parking so we drove around and stumbled upon this fine restaurant! Geez Im glad we did, service was exceptional and the food was even better. We had the carbonara, beef cheeks and snapper. All were absolutely delicious. We will definitely have to come back again I think

Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here this week. Staff were very attentive. Delicious food.

Great atmosphere. Catered for our table of 10. Food was amazing 10/10

Without a doubt some of the best pizzas in Brisbane, service is also very good. It may appear like a small detail but the free bread before we received our meals was also a very nice detail. Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available.

I ve been here a handful of times and really enjoyed it each time I ve been. My favourite being when my partner and I brought our dog to dinner with us. Enjoyed every pizza and pasta I ve tried each time!

Our experience at la lupa was very disappointing. The service was terrible, with the waitress being completely indifferent to what had been ordered, and management being quite patronizing when we spoke up about the issue with our order. We were given one complimentary glass of wine (there were 2 of us dining), which they then tried to charge us for! There has obviously been a change in management and we will not be returning any time soon based on our experience last night. I ll add that this was a birthday dinner, which had been noted in the booking, had they bothered to leave I m.

We have been there a few times and we have tried different dishes and we can say the pizzas are very good and the pastas too, just Al dente like we like. The service has been great all the time and even the last time we got olives and bread from the house. We really enjoyed this restaurant, perfect for a date night. Vegetarian options: Once I tried the caccio e pepe. Very nice and cheesy but not heavy. I really liked it. They have vegetarian entrees, pasta, pizza and dessert. Parking: There are more than 20 spots easily in the car park. Wheelchair accessibility: There is an easy access from the car park

The food was great, the service nice. Nothing to complain about. I would recommend it.

We have been here several times now. They are welcoming, extremely efficient and the food is consistently great.

Always amazing here. Best pizza in Brisbane.

We had a delicious dinner with excellent service

Great pizza, pasta and selection of drinks. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pizzas and pasta available Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pasta and pizza available

Just received an uber eats order of tiramisu. The portion was insanely small for $20 + service/delivery fees. So disappointing

We decided to have Sunday lunch as a family at La Lupa and we re very impressed with the service from the staff and friendliness. We ordered a number of different dishes including a number of pizzas, each with different toppings, and some specialty dishes (which they test prior to putting them on the menu). We couldn t stop raving about how delicious each of the dishes and pizzas were. Thank you to the chef and staff from all of us for a great culinary experience. We re looking forward to visiting La Lupa again and telling our friends.

Amazing food and service, cant wait to go back

Vale La Lupa. We used to love you. The pizza might still be ok, we didn t have any last night, but it s incredibly sad to see what used to be an excellent restaurant reduced to a shambolic mess. The staff were friendly but had no idea what they were doing. The menu looks ok, but the starters were disappointing and the guanciale on the pasta was burned. The wine list consists mostly of a single brand that isn t worth the time.

Brought my mum there yesterday, it was her first time trying Italian Food. She is happy , we are happy. She love the sourdough breads, love the burrata, the truffle pizza and everything we order yesterday. Everyone had a great night Food

That was a few of the best dishes Ive had in a long time will definitely be coming back more often if I could give more than 5 stars I would thank you to the chef absolutely bellissima

Good food, friendly service. Note that the kids portions are really only for very small kids.

Don t usually post negative reviews and my first time doing so but this has got to be one of the worst service I had in a restaurant, extremely rude staff and poor service. Order a couple of dishes on a Thursday night and the restaurant was not even crowded and waited over an hour for our food and experience heartburn because of how long the food took to come. Waitress never ever reconfirm our order, served us wrong food twice, never reconfirm the order with us EVEN after we told them that the food they sent was wrong, insisted that we order the food that they wrongly sent us, not a single apology from the waitress for the mistake and she put up a really poor and unapologetic attitude. It s fine to make mistakes in the service role, but own up to it that you took the wrong order and did not check the order instead of blaming the customer, the order system and everything else. Food was mediocre as well. Extremely disappointed.

Overall a really good experience, wonderful food, great atmosphere. However, the quality of the food is sometimes unstable, sometimes it s worth five stars, sometimes it gets overcooked. My family really likes the food here, but the portion of the food can t really fill an adult s stomach. If the food quality is more stable this would definitely be a 5 star restaurant.

Brilliant Italian meal with great service.

Great pizza and good atmosphere, would recommend to anyone in the area

Came here on Wednesday night and we really enjoyed it, it was a surprise as we didnt know this nice little restaurant. The location and service is informal and welcoming, we were well catered by Tom and ordered the squid ink and a pizza scacciafiga, both were delicious, nothing fancy but just well made and tasty! We will definitely be back, thank you guys!

On a recent visit to Brisbane I had the pleasure of dining at this fabulous restaurant The food was delicious especially the pizza. Service was excellent and I definitely recommend trying this little gem

Great service and such delicious pizza!

Lovely evening at La Lupa Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access Food : 5/5 |

Lovely attentive staff. Food and drinks arrived within a reasonable time. Delicious.

Excellent authentic Italian Pizzas. I ve been a customer since they opened, appreciate the new owner & chefs dedication to quality & customer satisfaction.

Delicious food and yummy limoncello

Never be here waste of time and money this was the horrible experience had in my life

1st thing staff is not good don t be here such a bad experience here

Great pizza and pasta. Will be back! Kid-friendliness: Was great for all the family Food : 5/5 |

Waste of time and money this was the horrible experience I had in my life. The service was very slow i almost waited for 25 minutes.

I loved the original chef, and owner duo. The food was imaginative and soul stirring. But as a local guide (level 7) I take my voice seriously.. And I can not leave a 5 star review up for the new owners sprinkling rocket on Barilla and buying fake accolades from Ausbrb and soliciting fake reviews ...

Carbonara & Pizzas were outstanding, coming back ASAP.

Be there early for BYO.

Food was great, especially the pizza and risotto that was on special. Service was good, the staff were able to explain and recommend the dishes, and very accommodating for our group; however, they seemed a bit overwhelmed when the restaurant became busier. Vegetarian options: There were vegetarian options, but they wouldnt recommend modifying non-vegetarian menu items into vegetarian to get the full experience. Parking: Theres a customer parking lot at the back of the restaurant, but the spaces are limited. Limited street parking is also available in fornt of the restaurant

Fantastic food to die for seafood pizza amazing. Highly recommend

Best pizzas I ve ever eaten. Highly recommend

Excellent pizzas, wonderful service, owner is fantastic! Would highly recommend

Seriously, the best pizza I ve ever had! Highly recommend the seafood pizza!

Loving the margarita pizza

Welcoming staff with quality food at low wait times. Gave us a complimentary dessert for a birthday. Highly recommend

Love these pizzas!

This place will leave your tastebuds, La Lupa. As you walk in, the ambience is welcoming at first glance. The welcoming from the beautiful staff makes you feel right at home. We ordered quite a lot of food from the menu thinking small serve, boy were we wrong. Holy Moses, taking a trip back to Italy, All mouth watering, fresh and full of traditional taste. WOW, I was impressed. Started with the mortedella and Angus rump. This was the epitome of a taste of the worlds best. I could eat this all day every day. This is followed by the Pap cabonara and the Capricosa pizza. The pizza dough was thin and fresh and had this amazing crisp wow wow wow!!! I barely eat the crust as many places look good but just cant get that dough (crust) right. The Pappardelle Cabonara. Shut the gates and call me Susan. Over my 22-year food journey, hands down best out there. Tiramisu, Im not a big fan of coffee flavoured cakes, but yes, I polished it off. I can not fault this place 5 stars all around! Thank you for this La Lupa team!

Great place for an amazing pizza

Really great food and atmosphere, but little amount of food Edit*: second visit we got generous amount of food compared to the first time, food was great again Tiramisu was delicious Food : 5/5

Unfortunately I have to give two stars because overall the food was okay even if they sell a single bruschetta for 9$... A bit weird and not even the traditional one but its ok, this isnt the issue. The issue was the service where the waitress first made a mistake with the menu saying that she would bring the other one but she forgot, but since we are open minded we go over it... Then she comes to get an order with just her mind because she hasnt sign anything and indeed she forgot the bread and the wine (quite a loss for a table because restaurants make money with drinks...) then after I finished everything I decided to look for her and have this famous bread for a proper Scarpetta and yeah, she was eating during service... Theres a need for a proper training because its not a McDonalds, you offer a service on a different level with different prices so... there should be more consideration towards the customer. ps: the guy from south America was pretty cool and kind. Recommended? No. There are better Italian options (and much closer to the tradition) I wont go back. It was a bad experience.

The pizzas are delicious!

Very good food and service. Ángeles recommended very good food and wines to us, thank you very much!!!

I went with my family to La lupa and had the most wonderful dinner. We were welcomed and served by Angeles, the manager, and she attended to our every need in the most warm and friendly way. The food was also amazing, I personally loved the Lupacchiotti Prosciutto di Parma.

Scacciafiga pizza was insane! Great service and vibes. Thank you La Lupa

La lupa is our go to place. The food and the service are always outstanding. I highly recommend the capricossa pizza and the squid ink pasta. Absolutely

Food really good but service not so good. After ordering mains I went inside to secretly order dessert as a surprise for my partner s bday. I even said I m pretending to be finding the bathroom so he doesn t suspect I m ordering dessert . Next minute a guy comes out with our pizza and says, you guys ordered tiramisu right? Anyway, surprise ruined. Then after the pizza 3 different people come out asking if we re waiting on anything and I had to confirm 3 times yes. Someone then brings another pizza out which isn t ours. Finally got the tiramisu but they gave us an extra dessert. Almost thought it was an apology dessert but it was just a mistake. Unfortunately won t go back. Maybe order takeaway pizzas cause they are actually good quality.

Vegan pizza available, you do need to requested since is not in the menu! Delicious and crispy base.

La Lupa is a culinary gem where gastronomic excellence meets exceptional service, all at prices that wont leave your wallet feeling light. As a dedicated food enthusiast, Ive had the pleasure of dining at numerous establishments, but none compare to the delightful experience offered by La Lupa. Lets start with the food - its simply outstanding. Each dish is a masterpiece, bursting with flavors that transport your taste buds to culinary heaven. From classic Italian pasta dishes to innovative fusion creations, every bite is a symphony of taste and texture. What truly sets La Lupa apart is the quality of ingredients used in their dishes. Fresh, locally sourced produce and expertly crafted recipes result in meals that are nothing short of perfection. But great food is only part of the equation. At La Lupa, the service is equally impressive. The staff exude warmth and professionalism, ensuring that every guest feels welcomed and attended to. Whether youre a regular or a first-time visitor, youre treated like family from the moment you step through the door. Attentive without being intrusive, the service at La Lupa enhances the overall dining experience. And perhaps the most surprising aspect of La Lupa is the affordability. Despite offering top-notch cuisine and impeccable service, the prices remain remarkably reasonable. Dining here feels like a luxurious indulgence without the hefty price tag. In conclusion, La Lupa is a culinary haven where food enthusiasts can indulge in the finest Italian cuisine without breaking the bank. With its unbeatable combination of exquisite food, exemplary service, and affordable prices, its no wonder La Lupa has earned its reputation as a must-visit dining destination.

We had dinner at La Lupa and everything was superb from the appetisers to dessert, the service was outstanding specially from Pancho and Angeles.

Food would have been amazing . If it ever arrived. Friday night, arrived before 6pm. Asked three times if we were ready to order initially and that s about where it ended. Had small entrees and then waited an hour for mains, drinks were non existent. In the end we left before the mains arrived. When paying we were advised they were extremely busy, the place was about 30% full with wait staff standing around. When I suggested this I was told it was due to take away orders cmon. Really? The worst part was the wait staff avoiding us, I politely asked one of the wait staff if they could check on our mains about half an hour before leaving, she returned to the area half a dozen times, said nothing no eye contact. I understand they probably knew it would be an awkward conversation but the lack of attention and obvious avoidance just made it worse. The food we did get was quite good, but I d recommend ordering for delivery apparently.

Pasta was Al dente as fk. Great food Food

Stepping into this pizza & pasta haven for a solo dining adventure was an absolute delight. From the moment I entered, I was met with a warmth that transcended the cozy atmosphere. The food, undoubtedly, was a star in its own right - each bite bursting with flavour. What truly elevated the experience was the attentive and friendly staff. Special mention to the remarkable Pancho whose infectious enthusiasm and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction were truly appreciated. Not only did he offer spot-on recommendations, but he also graciously accommodated my finicky tastes with ease. Its rare to find such genuine hospitality these days. Needless to say, Ill be returning with a squad in tow next time to share in this culinary treasure trove. Many thanks to Pancho and the entire team for an unforgettable dining experience. This restaurant undoubtedly earns my highest recommendation.

great authenic pizza, but the $11 one piece of bruschetta was cheeky small size for the price.

Decent Italian food. Loved the atmosphere. Loved the service. Will be a regular

Came here for the first time last night. Food is exceptional! Wonderful staff and great wine list. Scallops are a must have. Cheers

Disappointing service tonight. One meal was forgotten on our table of 6. When asked for an update on the meal we were still waiting on, the communication was poor - no apologies, Ill look into that for you, no follow up after checking with the kitchen to give us an idea of what happened or how long we should still wait. We had to ask 3 more times about the meal. Everyone else was done before the missing meal showed up. No compensation offered either. Food was tasty but I cant see us going back.

We got take away pizzas from La Lupa. The pizzas were good and we would go back for them.

Pancho was great. Multi-lingual and super friendly. Very attentive too.

Very delicious food and excellent service. Pancho treated us spectacularly and gave us very good advice.

Spectacular! Pancho served us very kindly and the food was very good.

Like always, great quality Italian food. The artichokes are delicious as an entre, pizza never disappoints, cacio e pepe pasta is the best. Pancho served us very well, the rest of the crew is also great! One of the top real Italian restaurants in Brisbane without doubt.

Nice Italian restaurant with lots of outdoor seating and interesting menu choices. The Lupacciotti with pistachio and mortadella was amazing. I would never have thought of the combination, but it worked perfectly. The pizza was nice too. The Cacio E pepe was great with a strong flavour. We shared pizza and pasta which worked out well for a family.

Excellent

Small serves and over priced.

Staff knowledge on wines are great, pizza and pasta is excellent. Outside seating dealt with flies, seats is kinda uncomfortable but still a good vibe

Vegetarian options: As expected with Italian food, there are some delicious vegetarian options here. Food

Food was okay, but it took close to an hour for food to come out and it was far from busy. Staff were nice, but it was an absolute sauna sitting inside.

Such a cosy restaurant and great evening venue to meet with friends, family or even have a date. The ambiance light and the overall feel was relaxed. We ve heard great things about this restaurant but was disappointed with the service, the food and wine recommendations (by the waiter) and were served dregs/sediment in the glass. It may have been a one off.

Nice place for lunch. The food was fresh and tasty. Not too anything, but just right. Why 4 stars and not 5? Couldnt put my feet under the table, and cutlery falls through the gaps. Nevertheless, the service and food was very good. Will I go again? Yes.

A great casual restaurant with splendid service and outstanding food. The prices are excellent and affordable for the food quality. The pizzas are light, with good balance and with a tasty sauce that ties all the ingredients together. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant and hope they can maintain their quality. Parking near the restaurant is limited so please consider this if driving.

Really small sized pizza - which is honestly not a big deal if the pizzas are actually good. Not the case for mine, it was way too salty (too much tapenade or the eggplants were too salted ? Idk but it was hard to eat). My partners pizza was nice/ok (pistachio and mortadella). The dough is reaaally nice though

It was very quiet for a Friday lunch. Service was friendly and attentive. Food was yummy.

Great pizzas

Yummy range of Gelato and Sorbet

One of the better and more authentic Italian restaurants in Brisbane. Not the most incredible in town but a good wine list and many dishes.

Our favourite local! Being Italian, im a little picky and this restaurant never disappoints. We cant go past the long fermented pizza with eggplant Specials change regualarly, last visit, we enjoyed whipped ricotta with grilled fresh artichokes.....delicious. Extensive wine list and BYO on week nights. We are fortunate to live within walking distance of this great venue.

A nice restaurant, delicious pizza and excellent service

We were 4 people. The pizza with panceta was OK. The serve of spaghetti with mussels was mediocre and small. The pizza with red base anchovies tasteless and the risotto too heavy.

Outstanding!

If you like overpriced food that is incredibly oily and very very salty then you will love La Lupa!

I know the issue with service is bc finding staff is hard. But why four of the six meals came out with a 10/15 min difference no excuse. We also told them there would be a pram with the booking and they shoved us in a corner that I had to move a plant to get the pram in.

We can t help to return again and again, because this is one of our favorite restaurant. We brought our families and friends there, La Lupa also became their favorite restaurant as well. Every single dish is delicious and well made. If you like mild spicy food, this is your restaurant. The prawns pizza, salmon tartare plus their special pasta and pizza are the must every time we dine there. We highly recommend it.

Lovely service and awesome food! Huge wine list. I enjoyed everything about La Lupa.

Food was really great and staff were lovely and attentive. The pizza was fantastic. Could not fault anything.

Beautiful pizza! Dough was light, toppings fresh and tasty

Great atmosphere, large selection of top wines.

Good food, poor service/timeliness of order to the time expectations servers set.

Food and wines here are just amazing! The service is top quality. Always a pleasure to have dinner here.

Excellent service and genuine home made Italian food. Taste is amazing and we had the option of a birthday candle in the dessert. Highly recommend this place for an enjoyable lunch or dinner. Thank you to our helpful and knowledgeable waitress. We shared our plates which worked well for us.

The food was incredible. I highly recommend the pork ragu parpadelle.

From Melbourne and decided it looked perfect place for dinner How right we were Exceptional Matched wines to our meal The sardines and brushetta must have as a starter.

First time experience was great. Limited menu, mostly pizza options.

elegant hospitality delivered with panache. my meal was tasty. the place is let down by its setting that aligns more with a street terrace cafe. prices seem high in that context.

Fantastic Italian restaurant, good pizza.

Food and drinks excellent, excellent service, I loved it.

Wine was 100 % off they stated it was just acidic, tasted like vinegar. Everyone around us got bread we had to ask. People got served before us for their dinners even though we ordered before them . Won t be back

The best pizza I have ever eaten. Perfect and delicious base. We drive 2 hours return for this deliciousness.

Tonight we celebrated my friends birthday at the restaurant and it was amazing. The food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was charming. However, what truly stood out was the exceptional service provided by Pancho, our waiter. He was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable dining experience and birthday celebration. His recommendations were spot on, and his friendly demeanor made us feel right at home. I cant wait to visit again and enjoy both the delectable cuisine and Panchos outstanding service. Highly recommended!

Went there for a friends birthday on Wednesday night. We were a big group of about 12 people so we had a set menu. The food was very good with a good range of drinks and attentive staff. Very reasonably priced. I will definitely return.

Went for Father s Day lunch Best pizza we have had in a long time. The Pasta dishes were also very tasty and authentic

I love La Lupas food!!! I think its the best Italian restaurant in the area. The pizzas are on another level and have the best waiters. Thank you Pancho for all your recommendations, undoubtedly an important role for a good experience.

Food was amazing and service from Pancho was great!

Great food, atmosphere, and thanks to El Pancho for making it special!

El Pancho was a fabulous server who nestled me into a quiet corner to read and supplied me with fine wine and wonderful food.

As a vegetarian, initially I was nervous to ask for substitutions on a pizza. This place gives authentic Italian vibes and I really don t want to be offensive. Pancho was so sweet and accomodating. He made some suggestions and I can honestly say that creation was THE BEST PIZZA I ve ever eaten in my life. Great wine, amazing pizza and the sweetest waiter. Incredible date night and would recommend Vegetarian options: So accomodating to substituting anything on the menu

The Gorgonzola, balsamic pear pizza is a must have, the staff were easy to accommodate us with a vegetarian variation, which was a nice touch . A special mention to Pancho for having a laugh with us and serving us some of the best pizza we ve eaten in a longggg time. We will be back. Vegetarian options: Easy

Delicious pizza! I tried Trastevere and Nduja. Sensational! Congratulations!!

What a nice experience! The best tiramisu I have ever eaten!!! Service was amazing with one of the managers think so, friendly and helpful at the time to make decisions with food. Drinks were incredible. Thank you very much for make our date unforgettable.

Wine is great, food is fantastic and service are awesome. Best Italian restaurant in West End.

I was in a date with my partner. The pizzas were incredible and Mario manager s service was exceptional. Highly recommended site .

Great quality food and wine with great service. Very enjoyable

Great food, great taste, lovely staff!

Me and my partner love this place. The food is divine and very authentic. The wine selection is superb. The wait staff is always friendly and spontaneous. Eugenio was really nice and share his knowledge about wines which we found very interesting. Will definitely come back

Thought it would be good based on the reviews but the food was bland, and the service was sloooooooow. We were waiting 25 minutes to get the tirimisu after eating our mains. Sparkling wine seemed really small for the $$ we paid (1/4 full).

Amazing service at La lupa and best Italian food in Brisbane! Was a bit expensive but for a nice night out it s worth it! Definitely try the tiramisu

Go there tonight Go there tomorrow! Best casual Italian in town serving amazing pizzas and changing offerings of pasta and other well thought out dishes - hasn t got fancy tables, but simple - hasn t got uptight waiters - just attentive. Nice wines to match the food . Just give yourself a treat !

Had the Amatriciana pizza, solid base and delicious pancetta were the highlight. Decent kick with some chilli and good service for a dinner out with friends. Relatively quiet midweek with plenty of seating indoors and outdoors. Pleasant atmosphere.

We love La Lupa. Pizzas are exceptional. Interesting and changing menu. Highest quality ingredients, Friendly staff, always trying to accommodate patron s requests. Fabulous atmosphere, authentic Italian

Having read the reviews, my son and me decided to have lunch here. It was recommended on the web that the gnocchi was really good. When we sat down we asked the waitress what gnocchi options there were but she didnt know. Then she went away and came back with another waitress. The other waitress said they did not have any gnocchi unless we opted for the gluten free option and advised us it was just as delicious. The first waitress came back and advised us we could pick from 3 sauces that were on the menu. I asked her what was in the sauce options but she was unable to tell me. In the end with lots of to and fros we finally managed to order a ragu sauce with gnocchi and a pizza. It took a long time for the food to arrive and when it did my pizza was soaked at the bottom and tasted awful, my sons gnocchi tasted like fried mince with huge amounts of salt. We waited and waited for a member of staff to check how our meal was going but nobody came. In the end our waitress did come over and I advised her of the poor quality food. She apologised and informed me that 9 other people had had the same gnocchi dish today with no complaints. She did recognise that by looking at the pizza she could see it had too much sauce on it, which made it wet. Nonetheless, I was not asked to pay for the food which was the right outcome.

Absolutely fabulous authentic Italian restaurant. Food is amazing, pizzas so tasty and the whole experience eating here is so consistent and welcoming. Highly recommended!!

We ordered gnocchi and pizza. Gnocchi were good, however the pizza was not.

Very tasty pizza, the service staff was generally friendly - unfortunately the restaurant manager was unfriendly

The meal was extremely salty but the staff is very kind and lovely.

very lovely place, beautiful atmosphere, staff is really nice. Food is excellent, we tried both pasta and pizza and we were very satisfied, and the prices are really fair. great place! well be back!

The experience was disappointing; we paid $42.00 for the BLACK ANGUS SIRLOIN TAGLIATA, but the portion size didnt justify the cost. Additionally, our recent pizza orders, particularly the eggplant parmigiana and gamberona, were excessively salty. The wine (chianti) was good, but the food wasn t.

Second time here. Never disappoint. Pizza is one of the best in Brisbane without doubt

The service provided by manager Mario was outstanding. His knowledge about wines and regarding the menu was incredible. We had a dinner here to celebrate our partners birthday and it was incredible. Food was excellent, but even if it average, I would come back just for his service.

Great food and exceptional service by Mario!!

This is a great place! The food was amazing and service was the best!

We had a pleasant dining experience overall. However the waiters were not very considerate. After finishing our meal, the waiter requested a tip. While the service was casual. It was surprising for us.

We had the set menu function of $49 per person. What can I say? The food is great. But the service of the Manager Mario makes the experience even better. We highly recommend this place for events and group dinner.

Came on Sunday evening Had a pizza and the pasta both of these menu items were amazing , and service provided by the manager in white shirt, I think name is Mario had excellent skills of upselling and professional customer service. So well done keep it up and we be back with more friends next week . Ciao Food

Inconsistency is key here. I live around the corner, I want this place to be the local place you rave about... Tonight I waited 40 minutes for a plate of pasta in a restaurant only 1/4 full. When I brought it to the managers attention - that I had to get up and go find a wait staff to order - go ask where my food was 25 minutes later and then the pasta comes not quite cooked? Was only given excuses as to why it could be - not one apology. Inconsistent. Maybe if he stopped bartering with the client to sell bottles of wine cheaper he could actually attend guests waiting to order. Poor form.

I love the pizza especially coming from someone who is Italian

Amazing pasta service and pizza!

Ordered for take away. Pasta (cacio e pepe) was quite bland, most pizzas were pretty good. The downside of our experience was the service from front of house. They were very rude when we arrived to pick up our order, exclaiming, We re not open in a very rude way. I personally don t think it is professional to speak to anyone wanting to dine or takeaway at your restaurant in that manner. Perhaps a more kinder approach wouldn t have left a sour taste in our mouth after eating their food.

Great food lovely staff.

The food and service were just amazing. I can say without any doubt that it is the best pizza in Brisbane. I highly recommend the porcina, an excellent fusion of ingredients in one single dish.

Can only comment on pizza. Not a lot jumped out on the menu as being unique or interesting flavour combo. I was happy just to go with whatever other people wanted. The menu was very very heavy on the processed and cured meats which I don t like. The share style focaccia pizza things were a bit different, and the one we had with pistachio, ham and mascarpone was very good. Mostly for the pistachio element. The pizzas looked good but too much processed meats. I liked the texture of the base but the flavour in the dough was underwhelming. I didn t really get anything. The crust was firm and chewy, but not moist or spongy. Non of the flavours in the pizzas were wow either. There was a nice red base on one of them, but that all I can say. Wouldn t go back for pizza. Ambience ok. But cold seated outside. Service was good. Prices.. ok ish.

Always enjoy coming to la lupa. Food is amazing. Service is amazing. The owners Andrea and Valentina are very lovely. This Italian restaurant is definitely worth coming to try!

Wine is ridiculously expensive, with house red at $55 . That said, the list (pages upon pages) is extensive and features some interesting wines from eastern Europe. The pizza is really good, perfect dough topped with very high quality ingredients.

I don t recommend the $75pp shared banquet. It was nice a staff member asked us if we were full after the savoury dishes were served, not all of us were, so he gave us one Margarita Pizza on the house. The waiters took our plates away and asked us to keep our used cutlery after the antipasti. It was awkward holding them while we waiting for fresh plates because we didn t want to put them on the timber outdoor table. The Parpardelle and Spaghetti was hard to share. The Ciao e Pepe was bland. The charred cabbage and the one spoonful of black Angus brisket was my favourite. The rest was disappointing for the price and the number of plates decided between the number of people wasn t enough.

Very good food, especially their pizza. I tried the risotto on the other night, I really liked it! Only issue is that they have only Italian wines which too light to me.

Absolutely love this place, one of the fav place to go for Italian.

Pasta and pizza is delicious! highly recommended!

I was having the dinner at LaLupa with my friends and spend approx around $170 for the night. spaghetti was fine and the customer service was fine. However that T bone steak have no taste at all and charges us $120 for it . That is just a jokes for that price. Firstly doesn t ask us how we prefer the steak to be finish and was present with basically inside cooked as fully raw. Not Recommend to order that T borne steak at all. Feel like it just a trap. But still can try the spaghetti as it was good compares to the steak

Came to La Lupa for a Friday dinner with friends. Lovely restaurant in west end with a really modern feel. Formal little place with a good selection of different Italian assortments in the menu all reasonably priced. Our food was most pleasing with plenty of taste and some brilliant flavours. Pizzas were large and we had more then enough food for the 4 of us. Plenty of seating in the restaurant as well as street parking on the road and in back streets. Staff were very polite and efficient! Not a bad little joint. Would recommend if your looking for Italian in west end!

The food and service were just amazing.

We always love coming here for their amazing quality food and service. Everything we had today was amazing from the olives, sea urchin pasta and the special pasta, pizza and tiramisu + wine Today was extra special thanks to the really attentive, knowledgeable and kind waitress (with bright red hair, I forgot to ask her name). We really appreciated her service and she was so amazing. Can t wait to come back next time for more

Really great food but is it THAT hard to split bills evenly? You re just being obnoxious. I m sure the technology will let you do it. Really annoying.

Great choice of natural wines, orange Georgian was one of the best ever. Pizza was good too

Divinely eaten! Congratulations to chef Mimmo and Valentina!

Super chef, awesome pizza. Recommended!

We were excited to try La Lupa as we had heard great things. Our waitress was very good and made great food recommendations which is why we tipped. Our entrees came out relatively quickly but our main meal (2 pasta dishes) took another hour to come out once we had finished our entrees. The restaurant was half full. We asked for an update on our meal after trying to make eye contact for a good 20 mins. This was directed at a second member of the wait staff. That member of the wait staff didnt have the decency to provide an update i.e. your order went missing, we accidently sent your order to another table. We would have at least had our expectations set had they kept us informed of the progress. When our meal finally arrived there was an apology for the wait but again no explanation...This obviously just distracts from the whole experience when you want to be focusing on the quality of the food and wine. We did enjoy the food but I dont think I will be recommending La Lupa to others if they want a stress free dining experience.

The pizza wasn t real great, I had the scacciafiga and it was just overpowered by the chilli and so much liquid, my base was slop. The other half had the special and it was way too salty, so much that you could hardly taste anything else. Service was pretty poor. The Maître D was running around like a headless chook, trying to do everything at once and accomplishing nothing.

I love the food at this restaurant, the place is impeccable and the service is great. I recommend the Prosciutto Lupacchiotto antipasti and the Spussona pizza.

Me and my family come here all the time. The owner is lovely and always so nice. And the chef makes the best pizzas I ve ever had in my life. I ve had every single pizza on their menu and every single one is the most fantastically perfect pizza, the base, the sauce (bianche or rosse), the cheese, the toppings, all of it so incredible. Highly recommend, BEST PIZZA IN BRISBANE

Still one of the best pizza in Australia

Amazing food and atmosphere, the quality of ingredients used here is second to none. It was like being in Italy.

This place is great! The food is delicious. Especially the pizza. But a special shout out to the server with the red hair (unfortunately did not get her name) - she was truly phenomenal. Amazing customer service. Just a delight. The restaurant is lucky to have her.

Awesome experience, the best Italian food in Brisbane and excellent service

Excellent experience. The food and drinks was wonderful. The service experience was amazing and I love this place. Everything was so good.

It s such a nice Italian restaurant with a soothing atmosphere. Best pizza Ive ever had by far. Will go back again for sure.

La Lupa is amazing. Menu is authentic and to die for. We had foccacia, pizza, pasta, tiramasu - all were delicious. I cant find any fault with La Lapa and never have - staff and food are always fantastic.

We chose La Lupa to celebrate a special birthday for a special person and we were very glad we did. Fabulous food, warm efficient service and great ambience. Weve enjoyed this restaurant in the past and look forward to returning again soon. Many thanks to our charming host, Valentina, and our delightful waitress on the night!

Not bad but it changes hands often

Absolutely loved this place! Best pizzas ever. Pastas were delicious too. We went on a BYO night. We will definitely be back! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian pizza and pasta available

Ate in for the first time last week (usually just get takeaway) food was as amazing as usual, can not fault it. Also had excellent service by a young woman named Allegra (we think that was her name it was the one on the receipt). We were the three off to the theatre last Tuesday and she gave us incredible service! Vegetarian options: Had the ortolana pizza and it was amazing. Always get it
