Lupo Restaurant & Vinoteca

“ This is my favourite place when I crave for a truffle pasta! Their featured black truffle linguine was so potent and creamy. Other pasta dishes are always impeccable too. The octopus mosaic tasted amazing, but lost a bit of the signature octopus texture being so thin. Fuchsia bread is also a must have. ”

“ Really good food! I found the sauce a bit on the acidic side, but that's just what you get with tomatoes. Overall, excellent experience. The sauce was excellent and had a good compliment of spices. I also really liked the cheese. Service was fantastic as well. Fettuccine with chicken was one of the best that I've had. I like the quiet quaint location. It was a very relaxing way to spend the evening. ”

“ I had a delightful date night at this charming little restaurant, which felt like stepping into a cozy home. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with a coat check right at the front, setting the tone for a thoughtful and well-curated experience. The service was great—attentive without being overbearing. The staff struck a perfect balance, allowing us to enjoy our meal in peace while still being warm, friendly, and helpful when needed. The food was delicious. The truffle pasta was a standout—rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The steak was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy. Our cocktails were lovely, complementing the meal, and the wine selection was great. As for dessert, it was decadently rich—definitely worth saving room for, though small bites are all you'll need to satisfy that sweet tooth. Overall, it was a nice evening in a quaint, intimate setting—recommend it for a special night out! ”

“ A beautiful restaurant with very well trained staff. The food was impressive and my husband and I enjoyed our servers recommendations on what to order. ”

“ Wow! Wasn’t even a pasta girly until I came to Lupo for a friends birthday! We ate SO much pasta and we felt satisfied but not bloated/heavy! That’s the difference between home made ingredients. I’ll definitely be back ”

“ The food was amazing! We tried four antipasti dishes and four entrees. The octopus, warm goat cheese, and braised veal dishes were exceptionally memorable, but every single dish blew us away. And the service was also excellent. Very friendly and knowledgeable with the menu and gave us great recommendations. ”

“ I recently had dinner at Lupo Restaurant & Vinoteca in Vancouver, and it was a truly memorable experience from start to finish. As I approached the restaurant, I was charmed by its location in a beautiful heritage house nestled between Yaletown and the downtown entertainment district. Inside, the ambiance was cozy and elegant, with warm lighting and tasteful decor that made me feel instantly comfortable. The staff greeted me warmly and guided me to my table. Throughout the evening, they were attentive and knowledgeable, ready to answer any questions I had about the menu. Being vegan, I was pleased to find that Lupo offers some vegan-friendly options. I started with the Eggplant Parmigiana, which was flavorful and satisfying. For my main course, I chose the Taglierini with wild mushrooms, chilies, garlic, and olive oil. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the combination of ingredients created a delightful harmony of flavors. The wine selection was impressive, featuring a variety of Italian and local BC wines. The staff helped me choose a glass that complemented my meal beautifully. Overall, my experience at Lupo was exceptional. The combination of a welcoming atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious vegan options makes it a standout choice for dining in Vancouver. I look forward to returning soon. ”

“ A really beautiful restaurant with amazing food! We came here for a birthday dinner and I feel so lucky it was a quiet night because everything was perfect. The restaurant feels very warm and inviting. The staff is so professional and friendly. The food was incredible and the wine list had a great selection. I absolutely loved the carpaccio and lamb shank. My sister really enjoyed the rib eye and salad. From start to finish we enjoyed the atmosphere, service, food and especially the wine. If you want a restaurant for a special event this is an excellent choice. ”
