The La Lanterna Chop Salad was quite delicious and the Spaghetti Con Frutti Di Mare was one of the best I’ve ever had anywhere. But, my goodness, this restaurant is LOUD and on the night we were there the waitstaff seemed short-staffed and overwhelmed. Definitely go if you’re okay with a noisy atmosphere – the food is divine.

Service was incredible. The meatballs and the calamari were the best I have ever had. Tried an Italian Mule for a drink, and it was so refreshing and delicious! We sat outside which was great on a summer day. Highly recommend this place – I can’t wait to come back and get pasta and pizza!

A great Italian food restaurant. I had cheese, ravioli, and a veggie pizza. Both were incredible. I loved the ravioli sauce. It’s full of butter very unique and definitely worth a try.

Food was good, service was decent, atmosphere ok. Problem was value. Portion sizes are pretty small for the pricing. Good food but very overpriced.

The food was great! We had the gluten free pizza and gluten free pasta. The pasta was my favorite! Some feedback: we stood at the front for about 10 mins and the servers walked past us numerous times without acknowledging us. I finally asked if we were going to be helped or if it’s open seating, she responds “hmm not sure where the host went” then a few mins later the host shows up. Regardless, if there is a host or not, someone should at least greet us at the door and say someone will help us momentarily. Other than that the service was wonderful and the food came fast!

The meatballs were great and the Americana pizza was super. All the food was fresh, hot and tasty. The service was also super, friendly and kept our glasses full!

The most comfortable get away on a busy business trip. Rob, Eno and Steve made the experience top notch. Great food and delicious cocktails. Not a bad word to say about this place.

La Lanterna is one of our go to places for a great meal, wonderful atmosphere, and amazing drinks. Pizza, Pasta, Calamari, and did I mention cocktails. Yno and everyone at La Lanterna goes out of their way to make you smile, relax, and enjoy every minute of your time there. Back to the excellent adult beverages. From his signature Dominican Old Fashioned to the magical gin concoctions he stirs up for my wife, Yno always seems to know exactly what to make for his guests. Awesome bartender and an all around great person. Go as soon as you can. Just don’t take our seats at the bar!

Got seated really fast, had to wait a while for the food because it was busy that day, but it was so worth it. The waitress was super kind and knowledgeable about Italian food and checked up on us frequently despite how busy it was. The area is super nice, so if you get a chance, ask to be seated outside!

Pizza was delicious – it has that perfect fluffy, slightly flour-y crust, and the toppings tasted high quality.
