Interesting full experience - Edit
I have visited Bistro Lupa twice now and have gotten the 5 course experience both times. Enough food to feel full.
Read moreFood is good, but expensive as this restaurant want to sell a high-end dining experience, although they succeed in some aspects the interior drags the high-end experience down as some of the benches are broken, and my DIY eye spotted quite a few cheap and badly made interior design choices.
Overall I have been happy with the food, it is seasonal and some things are foraged, therefore the menu is subject to changes. The course menu offer different flavours and directions, most of them great but some dishes, however, feels a bit out of place, like when they had a no-potato gnocchi on the menu.
Desserts are superb tasting and pretty. I strongly recommend their battered oister mushrooms from their own mushroom farm as an add-on if you get the 3 or 5 course experience.
Do not get the faux wine cocktail (alcohol free), in my opinion it does not taste good, very tart and sweet in a discount-mulled wine type of way.
A good experience for a special occasion.

Nice but I expected more! - Edit
I came to this place with very high expecations based on previous reviews and what I read about. The food is really nice and it's clear the effort and quality in making food. I was expecting more in terms of taste and "originality".
Read moreI'm happy I went to try it, I'm not sure I would be up for a second visit. Anyhow it's worth a visit!

Always spectacular - Edit
We have been to Lupa for essentially every birthday, celebration or for no reason just to light up the day.
Read moreThe price is reasonable considering all the thought and love that goes into the food. Rried blue oyster mushroom with homemade barbecue sauce is always a must!
We have brought carnivores that were thrilled with everything.
The only tiles where it hasnt been to our liking it has been due to personal preference (like my strong hate for eggplant)
everything is cooked to perfection, and if you have any remarks - the lovely staff will happily listen, arrange, fix and adapt.
Pros: BLUE OYSTER MUSHROOM, Brunch

Just incredible - Edit
We loved this, every dish was tasty and just the right size. I don't like mushrooms and they brought a creamy risotto which was the best I've ever had. Attentive staff, really nice atmosphere, definitely worth it when in Copenhagen

Fine dining that can convert omnivores - Edit
This was the best meal we had in Copenhagen and one of the most special vegan fine dining experiences.
Read moreAs colleagues here indicated, this place even was greatly appreciated by hunters/meat-eaters.
Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The restaurant was totally full on Saturday night, luckily we reserved some days in advance.
We had the 5 courses and added the house special, mushroom dish to share. Every single course was pleasing to the eye and very tasty. Ingredients are original and they make sure to not waste anything by using the leftover vegan cheese to make ricotta for example.
1. Pumpkin with salad and mustard seeds
2. Umami soup with celeriac and bay leave
3. Beet in 3 ways with ricotta and flat bread
4. Very creamy mushroom risotto
5. Pana Cotta with blood orange
Only the mushroom dish we didn't find that special.
Make sure to reserve a spot and keep in mind that you have a limited timeslot and they will kindly ask you to leave. #Veganuary

Bistro with a large B - Edit
Another restaurant in the Souls group (like Ark), formerly a Souls family restaurant recently re-opened in a Bistro style that demonstrates you can make plant-based food that is just.... great food. So many of the bits and pieces are made from scratch, combined in ways that just make you want to come back and try something else on the menu. Worth a trip.

Fantastic dinner - Edit
We could enjoy the 5 course menu and it was simply amazing. All the dishes had their own character. The wine courses fitted well. The service was super friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant was good. We will definitely come again😄

5* - Really good vegan sustainable food - Edit
Bistro Lupa lived up to the expectations I had, the food is delicious, the service is really good and the venue is comfy as you'd expect in Denmark.
Read moreEven though all of the dishes were amazing, I have to say the 4 mushroom risotto was the best among the best..
The drinks were also amazing, especially the strawberry and ginger cocktail.

One off experience - Edit
Had a wonderful experience at Bistro Lupa. The concept of having a fully vegan fine dining taster menu was too good to pass up. Although the price was expensive (about £53 a person), we were glad to have gone and experienced an excellent meal! The dishes were unique and the ambiance was relaxing (though we felt like our table was very close to the people next to us). One negative was that we were charged for our still (most likely) tap water. Be prepared to spend a lot of money here, but equally to have some excellent food.
Read morePros: Fully vegan fine dining , Ambiance, Unique experience
Cons: Expensive, Charged for tap water, Too close to next table

Probably the best vegan all vegan restaurant in Copenhagen - Edit
Went for dinner a second time in July 2022. This is an a lot vegan restaurant. The menu is slightly different depending on when in the week you visit - we went on Saturday night which was a set / tasting menu. They say they update the menu approximately every 6 months.
Read moreGreat innovative dishes, creative and hearty. Their classic dishes of deep fried mushroom in barbecue sauce and herb/butter bread are amazing. Definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful experience - Edit
Delicious tasting menu with 5 courses with great service! So much attention is paid to all the details. Personally wasn’t a big fan of the southern fried mushroom course since the pieces were quite chewy, almost rubbery but the rest of of meal certainly made up for that. The panna cotta is absolutely unforgettable! I’m still thinking about it months later!

Interesting food but bad service - Edit
I had the five course menu in the evening, outside in the sitting area at the square. The food was interesting, high effort put in different textures, two of the dishes (the main dish and dessert) were well combined and balanced in taste. The other dishes were in my opinion either too salty or bland.
Read moreThe service was unfortunately not good. I got dirty plates and cutlery two times, and had to ask repeatedly to have it replaced with clean. The waitress didn't know anything about the wines and was surprised when I wanted to try a sip of it before she poured a full glass. They started to serve the food before the wine had been served, I have never encountered that at any other restaurant. I ordered an espresso to go with the dessert, but it was not served at the same time either so the coffe had gone bad by the time the dessert arrived.
They charged me 250 DKK too much, and when I told the waitress she first claimed it was because I had payed with card in a different currency. After she spoke to the manager she repaid me 240 DKK, so not the full amount.
The seating at the square was nice, surrounded by beautiful buildings.
I was expecting a much better experience and professional service at this place, and perhaps the staff just had a really bad day or had too much stress. I probably will not go there again though.
Pros: Nice surroundings, Good wine, Interesting food
Cons: Bad service, Food not served in sync with drinks, The staff lacks knowledge about the wines

Delicious and exceptional food experience! - Edit
The staff has a very professional yet friendly and informative attitude towards you. They could adapt the meals for me without soy (because Im allergic) with ease. The meals were colourful and balanced with different flavours complementing each other. I love the luxery vegan consept and the nordic relaxed atmosphere in regards to the interior.
