La Lanterna di Vittorio

The freaking staff they got a nasty attitude. I will never buy food here ever again.

a new york classic. the food never misses.

Came here with a friend for dinner and it was just okay for me. The menu has a lot of stuff, but it's really limited to just lasagna, pizza, calzone, or panini. I decided to order a mushroom pizza since none of the other stuff are high on my list. The pizza tasted not much better than your average slice you get at your local pizzeria. My friend did the flight of lasagna and I had a bite of one of them and again, it was just okay. I'm honestly baffled by why this place got so many great reviews from people since service was not great - our waitress kept rushing us, and the food was just okay. The only thing going for the restaurant is really the atmosphere, the garden area is lovely.

Loved the enclosed indoor garden. Our waitress J was extremely helpful guiding us thru the menu choices. The food was top notch starting with the cheese k charcuterie plate. The thin foccacia is light, crisp & airy. The pizzas and lasagna choices were absolutely delish!

Cozy place but the food was very average. I ordered a lasagna and it was over burnt and lacked flavor ‍♂️ table service wasn’t great either

La Lanterna is dimly lit, small, and incredibly Italian. They have various lasagnes, drinks, and paninis with focaccia. And all of these things come together for an incredibly fun environment that I want to experience again and again with all of my friends and family!

For the past 9 years, ever since I discovered this restaurant, it has been my absolute favorite. I never needed to look at the menu because their lasagna was so delicious that I never considered ordering anything else. However, today, after 9 years of enjoying their wonderful lasagna, it seems that they've changed either the chef or the recipe. The moment it arrived, the smell and appearance were something I had no appetite for. Sadly, I couldn't even eat half of my plate. It was truly disheartening to lose my favorite dish and consequently my favorite restaurant. I hope they reconsider the recipe because it's genuinely terrible. Additionally, the service has declined compared to what it used to be. They didn't even refill my water.
