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!

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.

I have been multiple times and am always greeted promptly upon entering and seated right away. The server I've had greets us right away and is excellent. He recommends, suggests, and delivers. Prices are extremely reasonable and a big party can leave paying much less than almost every other place. Pasta dishes are either large or REALLY large. I like the the Fisherman's Spaghetti, however they have Bolognese and vegetarian options as well. Desserts are great, many options, but the lemonciello sorbet is great. Any choice is really a good choice. Atmosphere is good with a hint of blue lights, stone, and trees. If you know you know. Loud, so if seeking a quiet and isolated table, seek elsewhere. It is vibrant and active. Alcohol - stick with wines or frizzante. Aperitif and digestive are also available. Kids? Don't worry ... Water, Soda, juice are available.

I thought it was the best meal we had in Italy. From the ambiance (old Verona comes trough in a…read moretrendy contemporary setting) There is nothing touristy about this place, the staff doesn't even speak English very well but it's not going to affect your meal. You just entered a fairytale of dining experience their state of the art kitchen is lit up in red and opened to the dinning room with its plating station facing the guests... You can see fabulous dishes being assembled, watch their chef whip out some final details and be amazed! Again I am shocked with their outstanding (especially for Europe) service, one dish we ordered required extra time so they sent a complimentary appetizer to keep us "busy" I recommended strongly to order an appetizer with a crazy name "egg" I want to say it was the best thing that ever happened to my tastebuds- I still don't know what I ate but it was a culinary explosive... I still crave today months later If you are in Venice- this experience is equally as important as St Marco Basilica if not more :)

We thought it opened at 5:00, and we got there about 5:50, super early for Italy. The door was open but no one was there except the chef, who turned out to be the owner. He said it didn't open until 7:00! But he took us anyway, and he was absolutely the most charming man EVER. So sweet, so accommodating, so kind. He told us the story of his restaurant and that he's the fourth generation to run a restaurant there. We ordered excellent wine by the glass, including amarone, the double fermented local speciality. Then we had pumpkin soup, and it was the most delicious we'd ever had, really special, with a depth of flavor that seemed unusual. After that, we had spinach ravioli, which were fat little homemade pillows, amazingly delicious, with a sauce of halved grape tomatoes lightly sautéed in olive oil. So fresh! Then we had rack of pork, which was presented as two thin chops beautifully browned, but very tender, and served with lightly sautéed mixed vegetables (those were good, but not great -- I can forgive that!). Finally, we had dessert. I got the deconstructed Napoleon another reviewer recommended. It was so cutely presented, and tasty. Husband got "mini-dessert" -- two small puff pastry "donuts." Believe it or not, we went back for breakfast because we really wanted something filling, and they serve more than the typical pastries. I had yogurt with muesli and fruit (so tart i had to add a pack of sugar!) and husband ordered ham and cheese omelet, which came with bread. Both were nicely done and hit the spot. We just LOVED this place. You can't go wrong there! On top of excellent food, the service is friendly and efficient (everyone there was so, so nice). The waitress was just as nice as the owner.

Watching the gentleman carefully slice them fold the prosciutto into the panini was mesmerizing. High dedication to quality that's palpable in all they do. Great breakfast though few options along with fresh paritaires, lunch and dinner. We had omelettes off the menu, panino piccolo with prosciutto and butter was delicious, coffee was "the best I've had in Italy" according to the husband, had the orange cinnamon loose tea (largest tea options I've found), fresh squeeze orange juice along with impressive pressed juices (my pineapple, apple, orange and ginger was soooo good). Thankfully the rain gave me some time to remain here and attempt to give the experience justice.
