La Lupa

Had Saturday lunch with a friend and the restuarant was empty bar one family but that wasn't a problem as there is quite a nice atmosphere. The waiters were friendly and we were left alone to choose our meal in peace - no pressure. I agree with a review which said the wine was expensive. Luckily we'd had a glass before the starter arrived and I definitely needed it. The calamari was like rubber; they could have a new side line - tyres. The main, king prawn linguine was actually shrimp. I believe another new sideline has been discovered - hunt the shrimp. The tiaramisu, very watery. A great disappointment as I had been given positive feedback by a friend (who then admitted he hadn't been there for some time). I will definitely not eat here again although the atmosphere and the waiters were good.

Used to love this place ans go twice a week, very good food and really nicely priced, wine was a bit over the top but hey you didn't mind that coz the food was, well, "cheap", but in a good way...then the prices went up and up and we have never been back. They built up a good reputation I suppose and thought they could do it, but in my humble opinion they have out priced them selves, the wine was never very good just palatable, but now it is so over priced it shameful.
