It was my birthday dinner, so I certainly wanted to like the place. Photos make the place look chic and cozy, but in person the section we were seated was covered in kid’s drawings and doodles. Which made me feel overdressed for my own birthday dinner.

Nice environment. All the dishes we got were very good, with the possible exception of the fried artichokes, which was just good. Good and considerate service.

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.

Downright delicious. I don’t know enough about Italian food to vouch for its authenticity, but I can tell it is leaps and bounds better than quite a number of other Italian restaurants in the area.

This place was amazing, we went there for a last minute Sunday dinner and the whole experience was great, we had two kids under two and everyone at the restaurant was so accommodating to the kids while we ate, bringing them chips and crayons and keeping them entertained from time to time. Our waitress had great concrete recommendations and was super sweet. We ended up ordering and trying many dishes she recommended which did not disappoint! Highly recommend the ox tail appetizer, risotto with truffles, cacio e pipe, and the veal however you really can’t go wrong with any of the dishes!

Underwhelming. Tagliatelle with truffle sauce was watery and I’m not a fan of thinly sliced sausage. Makes no sense. Service was really lovely, but the food was def on the bland side. Cacio de pepe pretty good, charcuterie ok. Mortadella weak and thick, tallegio and burrata divine. Why they thought honey was a good side, no one knows, but a nice cherry jam would have been better imo. Solid 3 stars and agree a tad pricey for what we got. Expected more. Oh, and I killed 5 sugar ants on my outside table while waiting. Is that everywhere in DC when it’s hot?

We had such a wonderful afternoon brunch celebrating family reunions after Christmas holidays. The food was phenomenal and the children were greatly satisfied with their upscale pasta dishes. After all, when a three-year-old tells you that this was the best spaghetti that she had ever had that really goes to say that children can tell a grocery store pasta apart from the one that was freshly made from scratch. The desert was fabulous. As you can tell from a little boy the Nutella Donuts were a great hit. Great selection of beer and liquor the staff had a patience and friendliness. The kids were treated as if they were corporate executives, with properly placed silverware and settings. Very memorable family brunch indeed.

Our waitress was showing good knowledge and serviced us very kindly. The food was absolutely amazing! well made and very sophisticated. Menu is a little bit pricey but definitely worth the experience. Highly recommend!

Previously described by others as “cosy” . We thought it was cramped ! The recommended Tagliatelle was fatty, heavy and over spiced, and with obviously cheap meat. The Maitre D’ could be described as overly familiar, or “ handsy” – pushy, in repeatedly plying the wine even to the non-drinkers in the group and chauvinistic in the billing.
