Lupo Verde Osteria

Tried this place for the first time and loved it! Service was prompt and great and the bread service was warm and delicious. The place is very warm and cozy and we loved the ambience.I ordered the halibut and my hubby had the mushroom pizza...we were both very pleased! The halibut was lightly seasoned and yet so tasty and cooked perfectly. The pizza had just the right amount of truffle oil and a slight sweet taste. The pizza was pretty expensive for the size ($24) so that was the only negative. We will definitely be going back again soon!

Ok... let me start by saying, we had no intention of coming here. We actually ended up here to pass time due to an issue with our reservation at Kappo DC just next door. We decided to come in for dessert and coffee & I can tell you, we were not disappointed. The Bomboloni was perfectly crisp on the outside with the perfect ratio of filling and the drizzle of Nutella added the perfect balance. The Pistachio Gelato was rich and creamy, yet not too heavy with just the right amount of pistachios. Oh and the cappuccino was also one of the best I've had in a long time. I added absolutely nothing to it and enjoyed it down to the last drop. Walking in, it is definitely an unassuming establishment with a family feel. We were greeted by Dylan and serviced by Uyoyou (pronounced YoYo) both were very attentive. I could see coming back with the family for a relaxing dinner. .

Absolutely delicious Italian food, wonderfully intimate ambiance and friendly, patient service. This spot is perfect for a celebration for a small or large group because of its festive atmosphere throughout the year. We have dined here several times and are always blown away by the food. The pasta is fantastic. Fresh, and always cooked al dente. We have tried the cacio e Pepe, lasagna and chicken parm. All were cooked to perfection with tons of flavor. The portions are generous and filling! The wine selection is worth noting and I am a big fan of several of the options available. Note: my only note of caution-- be sure when you are making a reservation that you know which location you have reserved a table at. We have heard of several individuals who make a reservation at a different location of Lupo Verde and end up in a predicament because the other restaurant is across town!

What can I tell you, another wonderful meal. Be sure to order the burrata with fig and balsamic excellent! Lasagna was perfect actually too much had to take it home. More importantly, leave room for dessert

Any restaurant that makes me a specialty drink not on their menu gets 5 stars to me! I wanted to try their espresso martini, but realized it was at their sister restaurant. They went ahead and made it for me anyway, and I am not lying when I say it was the best I have had! Kudos to the bartender for that! The food was pretty good as well and came out promptly, and the vibe was just right for a romantic date. Another plus is they were playing the UGA and Ohio State game, and as a fellow UGA alum you get an extra star for having that on! This was a great spot to spend a relaxing New Years Eve with my boyfriend!

Wonderful ambiance and experience. Great atmosphere, food and energy. I really enjoyed my time!

I came here for restaurant week but ended up ordering off the regular menu, and I have no regrets. It seems like quite a few tables around us had the same idea too!- Brussels sprouts: these were roasted to perfection! The balsamic glaze was so good, and I loved how the leaves were super crispy, but the body of the sprout was cooked thoroughly. - Lamb ragu: the flavor of lamb in this sauce was *chef's kiss* and the pasta was cooked perfectly. - Spaghetti Rosa: I was surprised and impressed that the sausage wasn't salty like at a lot of places! It was so flavorful and they gave a ton of meat. - G&T: this was unfortunately the biggest letdown of the night for me, as it didn't have the strong G&T flavor I was hoping for. - Tiramisu: this is a must!! The sweet and bitter flavors were perfectly balanced, and the cake itself was so moist (sorry if u hate this word lol). * special shout-out for the complimentary bread too! It was so crispy outside and fluffy inside, we ended up asking for a second plate LOL.Service was friendly and attentive but never felt rushed. Just a note that if you're seated upstairs, you'll have to walk up a set of steep winding stairs (not sure if there's an accessible alternative). I wish this wasn't on the other side of DC from me, but that def won't stop me from coming back!

Wonderful anniversary dinner at Lupo Verde Osteria, a cozy Italian restaurant in the Palisades. Waitstaff were very attentive, patient and friendly. Chef paid careful attention to food allergies and made substitutions when necessary. The slight hiccup, medium rare ny strip we ordered came well-done, was immediately rectified. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. The standout was the pizza, the crispness in the crust, tangy sweetness from the roasted mushrooms and truffle honey just made it so good!Desserts were all excellent.We had:Polipo- sautéed octopus with olive and tomato ragu served over bone marrowCarciofi alla Giudia - fried artichokes with parsley sauceFunghi pizze - pizza topped with roasted mushrooms,truffle ricotta, black truffle honey Tagliata di manzo - 14oz ny strip, fingerling potatoes with Demi-glaze vinaigrette Vitello alla parmigiana - veal chop parmigiana, tomato sauce, mozzarella, pasta pomodoroTiramisuChocolate souffléPistachio cannolis

We had a very enjoyable lunch at Lupo Verde Osteria. We sat in the small front room by the door at a table overlooking the front patio and MacArthur Blvd. I would have liked to see the interior tables by the bar, but others in my group wanted to sit at the front. It was a comfortable space even though it was by the door. There are four tables there and it felt a bit crowded until the other table left. The food was delicious. We started with the Burrata Salada, which was wonderfully flavorful, along with the Carciofi Alla Guidia (fried artichoke), which was very good. All the entrees were excellent. Listed in order of my preference: Cacio e Pepe, Margherita Pizza, Calabrese Pizza, and Salmone. Can't go wrong with any of them. Ended with a Tiramisu, which was wonderful (isn't it always?). Drinks were good and service was great. Very enjoyable experience. We'll be going back.

The service was outstanding . The food was pretty good overall. The chicken parm was a bit salty. The apps and sales were great. Will definitely go back.
