I’ve been here many times before; usually the food is wonderful! However this time, the food was sub-par. The bolognese was freezing cold, I sent it back, and the waitress was so helpful, and they “made a new one…” the dish they gave me back was equally as cold. My friends dish (the chefs steak special) was rubbery and also quite cold. This is usually a lovely restaurant, but perhaps the business took a bit of a toll on them this evening. Drinks and service were lovely as always!

La Lanterna is a lovely little restaurant in one of the roughest streets on Glasgow. Don't let that put you off, however! It is an absolute gem of a restaurant, the food is exceptional and the service is second to none. We ordered the pre-theatre and they did not let us down portion-wise. The lighting could be a little dimmer to create a better ambiance but that's neither here nor there. Up there with the best.

This is a marvellous Italian restaurant in the basement of the building. It gets very busy as the day goes on but we managed to eat early and avoid the rush. Pretty authentic Italian fare with pleasant, if not always the quickest, service. Price is not cheap but it is competitive. We would not hesitate to recommend it to any visitor to Glasgow.

Went for a valentine's night dinner, and despite the high praises I have heard about this restaurant, the experience was pretty lackluster. The dinner service was restricted to their set menu for Valentine's day and one could opt for a 2 course meal for 27.50 each or 3 course for 35 each. My partner ordered a mains and a dessert sharing platter, and I went for a prawn starter and mains. The menu did not state that if you share the dessert platter it will cost extra and after we were reassured by the service staff that it wont be charged separately, when it came down to the billing time, there was an extra 7.5 quid added on top of our 27.50 each. There was also an added service charge, automatically added on top of that, both seems disingenuous to me. I don't mind paying service fee and having worked in the hospitality industry I will gladly hand tips to servers, but this was not acceptable. The extra charge for sharing dessert platter makes no sense, 'cos essentially my partner paid 35 quid for a bowl of pasta and 4 shot glasses worth of desserts. We were told that the server did not know and she explained it to us incorrectly that it would be included in the price, and only after asking for clarification was one given to us. She also quickly went on to say that she would be happy to take off the service fee, as if doing us a favor while admitting to the fact that she gave us misinformation while taking the order. The whole situation left a bitter after taste, although the main course pasta was pretty good. The dessert platter portion wise was very disappointing especially considering the extra charge. Food was decent, I liked my risotto but the whole billing experience did not leave me with a positive impression of the place.

My wife and I had chicken and mushroom risotto, lasagna, and calamari for a starter. The risotto and calamari were great. The lasagna was good, too, but the sauce perhaps a bit burnt, giving the lasagna a smokie taste. The servers were attentive even with the large number of guests and the atmosphere cozy.

This is supposedly a well reputed restaurant in Glasgow, having won numerous awards.

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. 😀

Me encanta visitar aquí cuando en Glasgow y esto no fue una excepción y el hecho de que estaba tan ocupado un miércoles por la noche demuestra cómo es.Tuve el halibut cubierto con langosta con un lado de verduras y un vaso de casa blanca. El fletán fue una de las mejores comidas que he tenido en mucho tiempo, mucha langosta y la sopa de cigalas que podría haber comido solo, era tan bueno. Gran servicio también, buena relación calidad-precio, volveremos!

Really enjoyed dinner here last Saturday night. We all complimented the food and thought the service was faultless. I think if I was returning I'd avoid Saturday night as I would have preferred the a Ia carte menu. On a Saturday they have a special menu (£25 for two courses) and for my pepper salad starter and chicken escalope main course I thought this quite steep. I really enjoyed the ambience of the restaurant however, the decor is beautiful and the staff were so friendly.

I was talking recently to a retired Italian chef, and asked which Italian restaurant he would recommend in Glasgow. He told me to try La Lanterna, and I'm so glad I did.It may not be the cheapest Italian I've had in Glasgow, but the quality was well worth the cost.We choose from the Saturday Menu (available from 3pm on Saturdays), which I would recommend considering. The lamb cutlets with sweet potato mash was excellent.We had three courses each, a bottle of wine, and a liquor and a liquor coffee for £99.

My first visit to La Lanterna on a cold, wet and windy winter Saturday evening in Glasgow. As soon as I stepped down stairs into the wonderful basement restaurant I was transported to another world - I was on holiday and dining in an authentic Italian taverna and excited about the dining experience to come!! Everything was perfect. What a great idea to have the set menu with no supplements for any dish. I chose the scrumptious ravioli for starter and amazing lamb cutlets for main accompanied by a bold and rich red wine from the extensive and very tempting wine list. The staff were friendly and attentive and, even at the end of the evening when our table of 4 was the only one left in the restaurant, they didn't rush us out. Totally recommend and I can't wait to go back!! Charming.
