One of the best restaurants in Berkeley Heights. Definitely offers dishes that you cannnot just whip up at home, and so worth every penny in my opinion. Drinks are creative, bartenders are cool, and overall Lupa provides a highly enjoyable dining experience, both for special occasions and random Saturday nights.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! From the very first sip of our cocktails to the last bite of dessert, everything was outstanding. The drinks were perfectly crafted, the bread warm and fresh, the appetizers bursting with flavor, and every main course was nothing short of perfection. Dessert was the sweet finale we didn’t know we needed! What truly elevated the evening was Chef Adolfo himself-present, personable, and passionate about his food. He came to the table, engaged with us, and it was clear his love for authentic Italian cuisine shines through every dish. Service was flawless- attentive without being overbearing, friendly, and incredibly professional. As a self-proclaimed foodie, I can honestly say this was the best Italian dining experience I can remember. Bravo to the entire team- this place is a culinary gem!
First time having dinner here and it was lovely! The food was delicious, the service was attentive without being intrusive and the atmosphere was relaxed and inviting. We were there on the early side but I can see where it might be noisy when the all the tables are full but I would definitely go back again. Truly an enjoyable experience.

Made a reservation for lunch. Great food. Great service by our server Antonio. Very attentive and helpful with explaining the options. All the food was fresh and expertly prepared. Our favorites were the calamari, squid ink spaghetti, and tiramisu! Would definitely come back with more guests.

Lupa never disappoints! The food is consistently wonderful, and everyone I bring is always impressed with their meal. This week, I had the absolute pleasure of trying dessert at Lupa—and wow, you must save room for it! From the rich and decadent bread pudding, to the creamy house-made ice cream, to their unforgettable ice cream–popcorn creation drizzled with chocolate—every bite is a masterpiece. Each dessert is indulgent and worth savoring. Lupa truly delivers a dining experience that keeps me coming back for more

What a gem! Lupa Ristorante has such lovely vibe, the food is amazing and the employees are all so warm and accommodating. It really feels like dining at someone's home. Last week, I had the pleasure of dining here with some friends for our monthly night out and to celebrate a friend's upcoming birthday. Everything was perfect from start to finish. My friend is gluten-free and had no trouble finding something on the menu. Each of the pasta options can be substituted with gluten-free pasta so she had many options to choose from.
I was looking forward to trying the Squid Ink pasta and I must say that it didn't disappoint. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente and is super creamy. I loved the addition of lobster and shrimp - yum!
Great food, superior service, family friendly restaurant! Truly a hidden gems, will definitely coming back. Love the steak tartare and all the pasta dishes we ordered, specially the black ink spaghetti.
The first time I went here in 2023 it was amazing. Delicious pastas and fish. The second time I came here about a year later, it was like the chef was replaced. I ordered a very similar salmon dish and it was very average. The pastas my party ordered were just okay. It’s outrageously expensive for what it was. Lovely atmosphere but very overhyped. Avoid.
This place needs a Michelin star - best restaurant around. Brunch is to die for and dinner is just as good. Service is also 10/10 with a great, more formal atmosphere. Perfect date spot or with the family.
Great restaurant! Chef Adolfo Marisi is so talented and he loves to feed his guests. Good food, good vibe and nice cocktails. You can be in the main dining area or hang out at the bar, the service is always top notch. Highly recommend.
