The Roma pizza was probably the best out of all the food we had but we found it salty yet plain. That was the same with the carbonara, salty and plain, it was also really small for the price and the dish was room temperature. The lasagne was overpowered by tomato, too rich yet somehow still managed to be plain. And then with cans of soft drink at $4, just not right. However there were some great aspects, specifically everything to do with the wait staff. They were personable and super friendly. The food took a while to be prepared, but when it was ready it was at our table in no time. We have visited La Lupa many times in the past 7-8 years. The first time we were gobsmacked about how great it is. But now everytime we visit, the food we eat declines in quality and quantity.

The atmosphere inside was great, and we were greeted by The Boss, who was a four? year old Natalia. She seemed very shy, but was adorable. Been back many times since and every time the food is beautiful. The mains are great, but the best part is the pizza's. The large sized woodfired pizza's were around $12-$15 each and you could easily share one pizza between two people. Also, if you don't finish it, they are happy to put it in a box for you to take home. It's a great place to go with friends and have some drinks and pizza.

We regularly get take away from Natalia's, and have eaten in a couple of times. I have to admit…read morethat the pizza & pasta take - away is exceptional value for money. Also they have recently changed back to their wood fired pizza oven, which is a nice touch. If you order a take-away pasta, it is quite tasty and is probably a large enough serve for 2 people. I have rated them 5 stars because I would not say they are the absolute best food & restaurant I have ever been to, however they are still quite good and exceptional value. The car park out the front is usually quite full, and I think this is an indication of how much the locals know it is a good thing. Also every time I have been there the staff have been really friendly and a pleasure to talk with. Worth checking out if you want decent food, good service and good value for money!

The pizza base was under cooked, doughy and had so much cheese on it, the cheese ran all over the plate when you picked up a slice. The warm chicken salad seemed okay, except the chicken was cold and there was no dressing on it at all... But after a few bites I also found hair in it. Not one hair either... The seafood basket wasn't good either, it looked discoloured and didn't smell fresh. And finally... It was over priced and they didn't care or offer any discount for all the hair in my food.
