The best pasta i had in my life. The spicy rigatoni was so good. Brussel sprouts were amazing as well. I highly recommend this place everything was fantastic.

Had a wonderful eating experience here on a Sunday evening with no reservation. Two of us dined and ordered cocktails and had the tasting menu. We both enjoyed it so much. Chef chose everything that we tried. We had truffle arincini balls, tuna, steak, two AMAZING pastas, and an amazing dessert. I would go back again and again. The food was SO good, service was incredible, and the vibe inside the restaurant was clean, modern, and nice.

Osteria Lupo was divine. The service was wonderful and the overall restaurant was nice with lots of natural light but good ambiance. We went for our anniversary and every single thing we got for the most part was phenomenal. We started with the arancini, tuna crudo and chargrilled oysters. The arancini was INCREDIBLE, didn't even snap a photo it was gone so quick. Tuna crudo is my absolute favorite and theirs did not disappoint. The oysters were good but just a littttle too oystery for me but we got more bread and I was happy. For our entrees, I had the hanger steak with potatoes and salsa verde-- DIVINE, and my partner had the Radiatori pasta with Louisiana blue crab-- DELICIOUS I also drank two dirty gin martinis and their olives are so fresh and amazing I wanted to take home a jar. Overall, fabulous experience, giving 5 stars but I have to say the tables are a bitttt too close together for comfort. Would definitely go back/recommend!

I am a sucker for homemade pasta. And the lamb... what??!! Just perfect. I love the octopus appetizer and the cocktails. The Manhattan is on point. Service is kind, yet not quite [yet] New Orleans' professional. The feel of the larger room is surprisingly intimate. The wood fired oven is gorgeous. An authentic Italian meal in a romantic, beautifully-renovated building.

We decided to try this restaurant on the recommendation of friends. We were not disappointed. Everything was so delicious. We started with the crudo, the wood-fired oysters and the beet salad. We each ordered an entree and the mushroom pasta that we all shared. Everything was so tasty. The service was somewhat lax and the server could have come over more and been more attentive, but, other than that, it was a perfect night.

The food and service at Osteria Lupo were excellent. Our group opted for the family-style tasting and enjoyed plate after plate of delicious courses. There was so much food that I didn't even get to try the pizza, but as you can see from the photos, it looked absolutely delicious I'm really really regretting not trying at least one bite of that yummy looking crust. I did, although try everything else and found The redfish Snapper Crudo particularly fantastic. To be fair, everything was delicious. If I were to skip anything, it would be the lobster Trebbiano in favor of the flounder, Burrata and mushroom Ragu. Overall, everything was absolutely fabulous, but be sure not to have a big lunch on the day you plan to dine here.

Lively Italian restaurant with great food, a cool bar, and a fun atmosphere. You know a place is good when you walk in and everyone is talking loudly, laughing, and having a good time. I absolutely over-ordered, got the arancini, the red shrimp, and the grilled oysters. All were really delicious with the shrimp being my favorite. The oysters had more of a mussel flavor to them and I almost mistook the dish for escargots. For entrees, ordered the mushroom pasta and ribeye. The pasta was amazing, great flavors and hardy mushrooms which add a ton of texture. The ribeye was really good...not sure if it's 75$ good so might avoid that on future visits. The server was great but would have liked a little more help with the wine pairing. The one recommended didn't exactly fit. Overall a really good experience and believe it or not I didn't try everything on the menu so will be back for the rest.

We ate here for my fiancé's birthday dinner and it was delicious! We arrived a bit earlier than our reservation time but they were able to accommodate us. It seems like a popular choice for a special occasion restaurant as we saw many tables celebrating a birthday or another event. I would say the dress code is Smart Casual. We started with the Peace Crudo and the Nduja Arancini. The crudo that night was fatty tuna and it was very melt-in-you-mouth soft. The fish was very fresh and the lemon adds freshness. The Arancini was crispy on the outside and had salty cheese and pickled peppers on the inside. I got the Campanelle that was a mushroom lover's dream! It contained multiple types of mushrooms - I appreciated seeing shiitake on the menu as I don't see that too commonly outside of Asian cuisine. Each bite was full of umami and I loved this dish. The Radiatori was also amazing - the basil was super fresh and not overpowering considering how much there was. We saw many people ordering pizzas, namely the Davila, spicy Calabrian one. It is a very large serving so for two people it could absolutely be a meal. I was not impressed with it though. The spicy sauce was drizzled all over and too powerful. My fiancé loves spicy food and he said the sauce was overkill. In addition to this sauce, there were jalepenos throughout. I would suggest to try one of the other two pizzas. Overall, I think this is a great Italian choice and I would come back the next time we are in town.

It's been a while since I've left an establishment feeling speechless! Hats off to the chef and all the staff at Osteria Lupo. They've done an outstanding job creating the perfect ambiance with dishes that are equally amazing. I came on a Friday night and it was a packed house, but the service did not lack one bit. We received our drinks and food very quickly. As an appetizer, I ordered the royal red shrimp: very large and succulent. The sauce was perfectly crafted and did not overwhelm the shrimp. My entree was the Spaghetti alla Chittara; not spicy at all despite its description, and it was very delicious! Perhaps the sauce could've been a teeny bit more rich and less oily, but it didn't ruin the dish that way. My friend ordered the Radiatori and literally inhaled it, she had no complaints either. This is a staple Italian restaurant here in New Orleans, and I cannot wait to return!

I came here during coolinary and I would give it 5 stars but I was truly shocked by the chef refusing to accommodate my friends allergy to fish. I've never heard of anything like that before and I find it shocking that a restaurant would allow that. They had a family style tasting menu that was randomly selected by the chef so it's baffling to me that my friend wasn't able to enjoy everything that came out even though the allergy was made known prior to ordering. Anyways, let's get into the review. Our server Mackenzie was the best! She was so patient with us and just a really cool girl. She even called over the resident wine expert to help us decide what to order. We ordered the family style tasting menu but also ordered a pizza just in case we didn't get full. (I left out of this place STUFFED.) The appetizers that came out: burrata con panna, pesce crudo, and marinated mushrooms. The entrees: hanger steak which was so tender and some kind of fish I can't really recall but it was a little too minty. The Diavola pizza was soooo bomb! I can't remember what the names of the desserts were but I didn't care for either. The food was all sooo good though, I really enjoyed it and I enjoyed the surprise of not knowing what was coming out next. Unfortunately we did get 2 fish dishes that my friend could not taste
