La Lanterna is my go-to spot. The food never disappoints—my favorite is the spicy vodka lobster, but every dish I’ve tried has been incredible. Everything from the bar to the kitchen is consistently on point. Marcella and the bartenders make perfect drinks every time, and the kitchen always delivers.
It’s family-owned, and you feel that warmth the second you walk in. La Lanterna makes you feel like family—and that’s why I keep coming back.

I had an amazing experience here from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. You can tell they really care about quality and presentation. The staff was super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect the whole time. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable, making it a great spot. Definitely one of the best places I’ve been to in a while—highly recommend and I’ll for sure be coming back!

Small inside dining area, so make reservations. They also have a beautiful outside dining area, and a small bar area. The food her is great, and portion are large. Great place to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, or just your love for food. If you have not yet, this is a must go.

Food is really good and portions are huge! The environment outside was very cozy on a fall Friday evening. We had the chicken caprese and the spicy vodka lobster pasta.

THERE WAS A HAIR IN MY PASTA
So let me start off by saying I went back and fourth with even wanting to write this review because I feel as though writing a review (especially a negative one) takes too much energy. My husband and I came here last Wednesday (first timers but live locally) and were excited to try it. The bartender didn’t really acknowledge us much-but we just assumed she was busy so we didn’t think much of it because in the moment when we arrived, it was busy. We ordered food and there was a hair in my pasta, usually I can get over something like that, but I think because I already had an upset stomach from an exam I took that evening and I was waiting for my professor to post my grade, I just couldn’t get over the hair. I told the bartender and even apologized while letting her know, because I felt bad even having to tell her I found a hair in my pasta. She then apologized and took it back, and I was able to order a different pasta with her. 45 minutes later and the pasta never came out& bartender never came back after taking my order, never acknowledged us or gave us an update on the pasta (and by this time the bar had cleared out and the restaurant was no longer busy as opposed to when we first came in, so really there wasn’t even an excuse anymore for her unattentiveness especially to customers who found a hair in their pasta)
So after 45 minutes with still no pasta or update on why we have no pasta, we kindly asked to close out. And the bartender just simply said “okay no problem” no regard to the fact that our food never came out, no apology, no acknowledgement whatsoever it was so bizarre. Like we found a hair in my pasta, and you would think they would prioritize bringing out my meal, or at least-bare minimum-give me an update on why it’s taking so long and apologize. Even my husband, who never complains and is the sweetest man ever even spoke to the manager (he would never do such a thing) which is how you know this treatment was unacceptable-but I digress, the manager did apologize & said he was unaware about the whole situation and offered to give us something to go (which we did not accept, but I suppose was nice of him to offer) the bartender made the whole experience such a disappointment which was unfortunate because we live so close and we were really excited to try it. Her behavior towards us was just so strange and bizarre and emotionless. Just so odd because we were kind the whole time. We even tipped her generously (which she did not deserve but instead of bringing ourselves down to her level, we decided to be generous) because why not just choose
kindness?
Also unrelated but I went to Yard house in ridge hill a few days later with just my kids & no hubby-I couldn’t believe it. The service was top notch and I was just in shock that I got better service & treatment at a Yard house then I did at a cute little Italian restaurant mind blowing.
Also another side note, in case my review seems like I’m nitpicking about service-my husband and I are pleasures and not complicated or rude. it may seem as though I am being harsh on service but in no way did I reflect this in person. We were so kind to our bartender and to the manager even when we expressed our distaste for the service. Trust me it took a lot for me to even write this review because I do not have the energy for negativity but this service was just a little mind blowing to me that I almost felt obligated to share it with others

Not bad place is nice ambiance lovely. customer service with a smile.. very welcoming place. Will go back to sit on the patio once the weather is a Lil cooler bc the humidity is just too much for now.. I had spicy lobster with ribbon pasta not too bad needed more flavor. The mister had the hot honey pepperoni pizza which was smack!!! the pizza dough is so damn good. Highly recommend 100%

This restaurant was a complete delight. The food was absolutely delicious. The service was amazing. The location may look a little deceiving, but as soon as you walk into the restaurant, you completely forget about everything else and you are transcended into an amazing atmosphere that’s welcoming. Kind of make you feel like you’re somewhere overseas and they also have an amazing outdoor seating area for spring and summer.

Great place with good food!
This place has a nice atmosphere, it was Thursday and we had to wait to get a table because the place was full. The service was very good but a little slow due to high demand. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. You can go as a family, with friends or as a couple and you will have a pleasant dinner experience with this food. The lobster ravioli is highly recommended. The meatball ravioli and the branzino special were also delicious. I loved the place!

It’s always a pleasure dining at La La. They have recently redecorated the dining area to match their outdoor theme, and the result is stunning, beautifully done and full of tasteful touches. The ambience truly elevates the whole experience into fine dining, perfectly complemented by their delicious food.
La Lanterns is always packed, so we made our reservation a few days in advance- and it was absolutely worth the wait. Every dish hit the mark! From the Chilean Seabass to the stuffed Sicilian, everything was cooked to perfection. Let’s not forget the whipped butter that comes with the table bread I could not stop eating it, even while reminding myself to save room for appetizers and entrées (reminds me of Texas Roadhouse whipped butter but lighter).
The bartender was efficient and kept the drinks flowing while we waited for our table, and both the waitress and food server were friendly and attentive throughout our meal. The portions are generous, and the pricing is very fair.
We also had a chance to try their restaurant week menu, which was exciting. The appetizer was a half portion, followed by a full-size entrée and choice of three desserts.
Overall, we had a fantastic experience and are already planning our next visit!
