Spiga replaced Lupa and I was expecting something of similar quality or better. Overall for $400 per person I was not impressed. The minestrone soup was worse than pizza hut's although the chunky homemade croutons were quite an elegant touch - it would have been even more elegant had they given maybe 1/2 a cup's worth and not an entire cup - there were nearly equal amounts of soup and croutons which is a bit ridiculous. You can tell they are very proud of their homemade bread as they make sure y

Now for the mains. We got the buffalo mozzerella ravioli in tomato sauce and the white truffle pizza. They both tasted terrible. The lemon zest, bland tomato sauce and vinegar-y olive were just not harmonising. The actually technique of the pasta rolling involved in making a perfect ravioli was actually spot on. The ratio between the pasta and filling amazing. Superb technique, but the flavors of the dish just meant that I didn't want to finish my plate let alone ever want to eat here again.
The truffle pizza - do me a favour and do not fall for the trap of ordering this pizza. It sounds great in theory but it tasted terrible. The sauce base was 'white truffle sauce' which I can only describe taste-wise as a heavily condensed campbell mushroom soup. It was so heavy and so bad I was left feeling not great. Again, the technique of the pizza dough was amazing texturally and it was baked to perfection. I have occasionally in the past left out the crust when eating pizza. This was the FIRST time in my life that I ate the crust rather than want to eat the main filling of a pizza!

I was so disappointed by my meal that I wanted to forego dessert. But my experience has also told me that whenever a european restaurant be it french or italian has bad food - they end up being better for their dessert. I reluctantly ordered the tiramisu despite feeling heavy after that pizza - and turns out I was right and it was delicious. The coffee was bitter and it balanced the creamy mascarpone very well. It's a shame this place isn't a 'desserts only' type of place. All their desserts looked yummy actually. The environment of the restaurant is great, their outdoors area is beautiful. Service was fine, but a bit pretentious for my liking.
