    We got the lasagna and chicken parmigiana. They looked amazing, but that was just the melted mozzarella. It tasted like precooked lasagna that was covered in cheese, but was cool in the center and had an off taste. Chicken parmigiana tasted like it came out of a dirty fryer with old, not quite hot enough oil. The waitress was snotty and not a people person at all.

    Very fun atmosphere and excellent service! Food was great and menu is designed well to allow you to try lots of different things. We had pasta but will be back for some meat next time!

    Average at best. Spent more attention to the cute decor than they did to the flavors in their food.

    My wife and I enjoyed dinner at Italian Grafitti last year. Even though Lupessa is in the same place, with the same ambiance and a similar menu (with the same high prices), the experience was underwhelming. The food was good, but not what we had under the previous management. For us, it was not worth the price tag.

    We were celebrating our son's birthday, and had never been to LUPESSA before. We really enjoyed the restaurant, and will look forward to dining there again.

    The food variety is well-chosen, and very delicious. Also, we really liked our server: Bailey, who was very nice and friendly. Thank you, and Happy Holidays!!

    This place would fit in Vegas! It’s classy, quality, luxurious vibes, and delicious. I can’t really describe this place in words. It’s an experience and if you’re looking for an authentic fancy Italian restaurant with good vibes, this is it! I was a fan of the Gorgonzola gnocchi🤤.

    We had a great experience, we had to wait 20 minutes to sit with a reservation and the manager proactively apologized, explained the seating, and provided a complimentary appetizer leaving us very satisfied.
