“Lupa's Carbonara was not particularly eggy enough imo and was very peppery. They add these thinly sliced green peppers for more heat it seemed. It was not bad, but flavor-wise I could have been told it was a Cacio e Pepe and I'd have believed it.”

“Just had Lupa's Carbonara tonight and it is not the right answer for best Carbonara. It's very peppery and not eggy enough. It even has thinly sliced green peppers of some type. It's not bad, but it's barely recognizable as a traditional Carbonara.”
