Lúpulo was amazing as always. And they went above and beyond by including sauces that make the meal for me. Thank you! Amazing Arugula salad, the Verde grilled cheese arrived warm and melty, and the empanada was crisp and also warm. Thank you! Hoping the sauces are on the menu to by soon. We will buy by the gallon lol Appreciate all of the veg options!!

The Arugula Salad is fresh and delicious. A half salad is as much as a full salad at other restaurants. I also enjoyed the Spanish Meatballs as part of my lunch. So good!

Tasty Green Goddess dressing for the salad. Best meatballs I have had in Santa Cruz. This restaurant has consistent quality.

Empanada was a bit smaller than I thought it would be (used to the large meal-sized ones back home), but it was still great. Glad I had some limes to squeeze over it, so delicious.
The Grilled Cheeses were yummy and good portion (it came with 3 half sandwiches). I would likely order these for my kiddos next time and just get myself a 2nd Empanada to make it a full meal for myself.

The tapas at Lupulo are delicious! The 1/2 size salads are big enough for lunch by themselves but treat yourself to a Tortilla Espanola or Empanada. I also highly recommend the Meatballs. You won't be disappointed!
