The neighbourhood.
The name comes from the Castra Praetoria, the camp of ancient Rome’s Praetorian Guard, whose walls still stand in long stretches. Today Castro Pretorio is the district north-east of Termini station: streets of hotels and early twentieth-century buildings around Piazza Indipendenza, the National Central Library on Viale Castro Pretorio and, a little further on, the university campus.
La Lupa is at Via Marghera 37, about five minutes on foot from Piazza Indipendenza and about eleven minutes from the National Library, on OpenStreetMap’s walking route.

A working lunch nearby.
If you work or study in the area you want a proper lunch without losing the afternoon. The kitchen opens at 12:00 and stays open until 23:00, so a 1 pm lunch works as well as a later meal after a meeting. One Roman pasta is enough: carbonara, amatriciana, cacio e pepe or gricia. For a full lunch at a clear price there is the €30 La Lupa menu.
