Definitely a fantastic way to lure us in. Inside was pleasantly decorated in a modern style in a soothing shade of green, and the air conditioning was a definite relief after a blistery day in August. I had shared a lovely bruschetta appetizer with my friends and ate a delicious homemade pasta with mushrooms and truffles.

We stopped here for lunch and were greeted kindly and served immediately. The wine selection was plentiful, and the house red wine was standard and just what we were looking for as our first meal out in Verona. We continued with a sampling of a few pastas and pizzas. First, we ordered the gnocchi ai quattro formaggi which was delectably cheesy and incredibly rich, and the pesto pasta which was so fresh and delicious as well. Additionally, we ordered the la radicchio pizza and the margherita pizza. They were also both amazing. The margherita was classically made and light to enjoy. The raddichio was a bit intense on the other pizza, however the bakes brie chunks on the pizza were absolutely worth the adventure!

When we asked if a smaller pizza could be made fresh, the owner declined because he had run out of the pre-made dough. Even Dominos make fresh pizza dough daily, so the bar isn't exactly high. The crust was HEAVILY coated with semolina, which made it feel like you were chewing on sand. There was also no place to wash your hands, and the owner came across as quite pushy. Didn't finish it, and still had upset stomach almost immediately. Overall, this was the worst pizza experience we've had in Italy so far. I would not return.

If you ever come to Verona, make the effort to come here for pizza…read more The place might not be the most appealing one and the service, despite being impeccable, can be perceived a bit rough. But boy if the pizza is good here. And the price is almost hard to find this convenient anywhere in town. It's located just 5-10 minutes driving from the historic centre (depending on traffic and which part of the historic centre you are) but trust me when I say that it's worth the drive. The pizza is the typical Northern Italian style: flour 00 for the dough which is well stretched resulting thin all around with crunchy edges. As always, the topping are just two or three, well paired together and of fresh quality. Started to come here since late '90. It hasn't changed since then; and I'm not just talking about the ownership and the "pizzaiolo" (pizza maker), but also the interior design and, most importantly, the menu. Well, to be exact the menu has changed a bit: it has been reprinted. But the type of pizza and its prices are still available (until three/four years ago, prices were still in Lira - old Italian currency before the Euro took over). A real gem totally unknown to the tourists (except those few Canadians I have brought here and that went nuts). The only downside if you don't speak Italian? They don't speak any other language other than Italian but they will do whatever they can to make sure you get what you want.

We didn't have a reservation, but luckily the staff kindly allowed us to squeeze in for a course before the busy Italian dinner hour around 7:30. We really appreciated the gesture and their hospitality. With so many restaurants to choose from, it can be hard to find a place that feels genuinely local while also delivering great quality. We ordered the bigoli pasta and the beef cheeks, and both were phenomenal. Everything was delicious, and we were so happy we managed to squeeze in. Definitely worth seeking out--especially if you're looking for a quieter, authentic spot away from the crowds! No pictures of our food because we ate them so quickly! But trust me, they are amazing!

We also ordered an artichoke appetizer that was pretty damn good, But the server... "You can order pizza or pasta, but not both." I asked why, and his response was that they come out at different times. Really? So I asked which one took longer, and he said it was the pasta. My next question: "I don't care if mine comes out before or after theirs, but could y'all just put mine in the oven about 10 minutes before the pasta is ready to be served?" His response: "That's impossible." Though I was frustrated, I left it alone. I figured it was a cultural thing. Cone to find out, it was a La Lanterna thing. Perhaps our server didn't like Americans? Perhaps he wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer? Or maybe he was just lazy. Shame on him. The pasta dishes were really good, as was the artichoke appetizer. I'll never know about the pizza.

The flavor was wonderful and although the portion seemed small, it was more than enough.

Made with local amorone wine, The risotto was cooked to the proper level and it had good flavor. That was literally the only good thing about this meal. We ordered the house red which was warm and terrible. For the love of God, keep your red wines at the proper chilled temperature. The lady ordered the lasagna. It was probably the worst dish we had in Italy. It came out lukewarm, the pasta was mushy as it had been overcooked, and it just lacked proper flavor. The worst part is after we paid the bill and we're walking back to the hotel, the lasagna struck again and the lady had to double time it back to the hotel and the toilet. Terrible food poisoning. This is off the list.
