    Griffin was so helpful and recommended wine pairings and courses for us to try. He was very knowledgeable about the wines and answered all our questions. He wrote us a personal note congratulating us on our anniversary and engagement and really made the whole night very special. The food was very tasty and well worth the price. We both left stuffed and happy! Thanks for ringing in this new chapter with us.

    Lupo Verde is always good, but they really brought it on Valentine’s Day. The food was great but the service was exceptional. That’s rarely the case on a major holiday so hats off the them. I also appreciated that they had a fixed price menu but also a few regular options, as I don’t love being stuck with multiple courses I don’t want. I know that variety adds to the difficulty for a restaurant on a night like Valentine’s, so it’s even more impressive.

    The food and service is excellent including the front desk. The "tables for two" are nicely arranged, but larger groups are accomodated as well. The food was still hot when we received it which is great especially for fish dishes. Our server was very attentive and helpful with our requests. Try the Sea Bass!!
