La Lanterna

Some of the best food I’ve had in a long time. Menu was absolutely fantastic containing several tasty starters and also lots of vegetarian options. I went for the bruschetta classic and the Arancini, which were both cooked to perfection and tasted excellent. The food also came at the perfect time, not taking too long to arrive as is common in some other fancy restaurants 🍝. finally, I had the copper Alaska, which was lovely, sweet meringue with mixed berries and ice cream. Five star restaurant, lovely atmosphere

Since we were attending a concert, we booked this restaurant about 3 months prior to our event and since there was 5 of us wanted to be guaranteed a table. The menu choices were good, I went with the old classics however my friends all chose different things and they all looked excellent and with empty plates at the end obviously tasted excellent 👌 Reasonable prices for the food and drinks we had. Will definitely be back if I'm in Glasgow again. 😀

Our third time at La Lanterna, it’s reputation for the best Italian Restaurant in Glasgow is well deserved. The food is superb and authentically cooked and presented by wonderful and friendly Italian staff, who know their dishes and are proud of the quality of the food they serve you. Fantastic wine list with lovely Pinot Grigio, Trentino and Sicilian Grillo whites, being our favourites, but there are dozens more of all types, reasonably priced. The dishes from the wonderfully light dipping bread, crispy arrancini and mouthwatering scallop starters, followed by veal Milanese with wild mushroom tagliatelle and my wife’s rich flavour packed lasagne were fantastic. I had the Zabaglione alla Marsala which was a revelation and is now favourite dessert!, my wife had the chefs special chocolate mousse which was so light and melted in your mouth, gorgeous. All of this delicious food was helped along with a bottle Grillo too. Not cheap, but I think very reasonably priced for the high standard of the meal and service from the staff and chefs. Quality is not expensive, it’s priceless! We will definitely return. Outstanding Italian restaurant.

Wow!! What an amazing authentic Italian restaurant, my husband and I wanted to try a proper Italian restaurant for a while and finally booked this place whilst visiting for the weekend, the staff were fantastic and the atmosphere was great, food was delicious, and good sized portions, I had a mocktail it was lovely 😍

Although a little expensive, La Laterna is my absolute favourite Italian restaurant in Glasgow. The food is packed full of flavour and extremly aromatic. The atmosphere is fancy but not overwhelming or uncomfortable like some other fine-dining establishments. Service is prompt and friendly and we were afforded a nice break between courses to settle our stomach's.

Food was spectacular, loved every bite, great selection of wines and cocktails. Service was above and beyond. We felt looked after but not smothered and were given plenty of time between courses to chat and not feel rushed at all. Would recommend and will be back. Top notch Italian restaurant! Massive thank you to all the staff for making it a wonderful experience.
