Pasta Lupino is the best place in Whistler to get a reasonably priced dinner, period.
The staff are friendly and helpful, the food is fantastic, and the prices are really reasonable for Whistler. You won't find better value for money in Whistler.

Don't tell everyone, but this is the spot!
Show up between 5:00pm - 5:30pm when lunch is still being served for the same meals at cheaper prices. Dinner is more expensive, but you will be treated to olive oil and vinegar with your delicious bread prior to the meal (the bread is absolutely amazing...definitely worth the trip). It appears the pasta is made right on the spot. This seems to be authentic Italian.
The chicken parm was tasty, and the pasta with sausage was great, too. Two of us walked in, absolutely ravenous. Not long after, we both walked out, completely stuffed (with leftovers!) for less than $25. That's a deal you don't find everyday in a ski town!

Pasta lupino is a cozy rustic spot in Whistler, which serves up fresh Italian fare everyday at a reasonable price. The pasta is made on site and melts in your mouth. The sauces are simple but pack a punch of flavor. The freshness of the plum tomatoes in the sauces makes everything savory and aromatic. Our front desk at Pan Pacific recommended them and we weren't disappointed. If you are in the mood for Italian skip the pasta factories and walk on to this authentic little Italian kitchen.

This little cafe offers fresh pasta with well crafted sauces at a bargain price, especially for Whistler. It smells like heaven too. My favorite is to get Chicken Parm with radiatorre and half alfredo, half tomato basil sauce. Manga!

Walked in at 9 pm on a Wednesday and the very sweet waitress said she would have to ask to see if we could be sat or if they were closing. Luckily she let us have a table. The only type of the beer they have is Sleemans, and we love beer so that was a little disappointing. I had the Malbec for $6.50 which was fine with me.
All of their dinners come with soup or salad and are a good deal. They gave us tons of delicious bread. The pasta was definitely homemade but nothing to write home about.
I was going to give it 4 stars and then at about 10:15 pm we were finishing up and I asked to go to the bathroom and the waitress said it's locked. Maybe you can go down the street. What? You just dropped off a check over $100 at my table but you can't unlock your bathroom for me. I don't blame her, but what kind of crazy dinner establishment doesn't provide a restroom??

Very good food for the money. Very reasonably priced by Whistler standards. Warm and cozy inside. Good service.
I really enjoyed the vegie lasagna and my husband really like his meat lasagna. Good sized portions.

Great food, amazing flavors. All the pasta is fresh made and served perfectly al dente with the chewy texture that fresh pasta imparts.
The menu is simple but everything is worth trying, again and again. The 3 sauce choices are amazing (including bolognese and alfredo), but if you have to pick one, the perfectly simple basil and plum tomato might be the best in the universe.
The soups-of-the-day rotate frequently and never disappoint, the panko-crusted chicken parmigiana is flavorful and crispy, and even simple spaghetti and meatballs is delicious.
I realize it's possible to eat cheap here for lunch (or take-out), but if you want more than a simple pasta and sauce, a dinner with a glass of wine and dessert will run about $30-35 per person. It's a great meal for the price, but maybe not the cheap eats that some expect.

I would say that this is the best value for real Italian food in Whistler, the pasta tastes just like the ones in Italy, the price is right and the portions are generous with our being grotesque

Yes this is one Whistlers local secrets... When your hunger and do not want to spend allot but want quality food this is the place. Rarely a lineup but can be busy at peak times. The pasta menu is very very real and good portions. The wine & beer are well priced. It only has a few tables as allot of their business is take out. I like to order take out while having Apres ski drinks and pick up dinner on the way home.. Th pasta Parmesan is my favorite..

This is Whistler's best kept secret. There are a couple higher end Italian restaurants, but Pasta Lupino is easily the tastiest place to get yourself a pasta treat.
They offer both take-out and dine-in, including lunch and dinner. Our household has a Monday tradition called "Pasta Lupino night" where we pick up two grilled vegetarian lasagnas and take them home to cook that evening for our dinner. It's great whether you have it at their location or from your own oven.
They have a homemade plum tomato basil sauce that is easily one of the best tomato pasta sauces in the history of mankind. I do not jest.
And last night, after a great dinner elsewhere, my girlfriend & I finished off our evening with americanos and tiramisu, a rare entity at Pasta Lupino. Their tiramisu is so dad-gummed good (yes, I can't help but use shocking profanity in sheer joy discussing it) that it's hardly ever available. A perfect dessert.
Yes, you can go drop a lot of money at a snooty Italian restaurant in Whistler, or you can go to a casual and entirely tasty little joint that'll blow your mind. My Mondays are not complete without a visit to Pasta Lupino.

Great find! Thanks again Yelp. This place was tricky to find but well worth the effort....right next to the 7-11 for future advice. Just ate there and had great fresh pasta and sauce with fantastic service. Whistler was pretty much dead but this place was packed....obviously a local favortie. Everything to eat was great.
