The restaurant is off across the road from central station, if you didn't know it was there you would miss it,(a great mistake) you decend into the dining area , and you are treated like royalty, nothing is too much bother for the staff. Before we married my now wife said I had to try it,folks now know how much... More

Possibly the best Italian restaurant I have been to. The decor and vibe are pleasant, the staff are helpful and the food excellent. I asked which pasta dishes didn't have garlic in them because I don't like the smell. I was told that I could order anything from the menu and they would leave the garlic out, this shows that...

La Lanterna recently deservedly won the coveted title of Best Italian Restaurant in Scotland. I have never written an online review before, but I simply have to to ensure this fantastic establishment gets the praise it deserves.

I visited this restaurant after reading rave reviews on trip advisor and I am so glad I did! The food, service and decor were all fantastic: the friendly staff made us feel welcome and everything we ate as part of our three course dinner was to die for. I went for the Insalata Caprese, followed by Saltimbocca alla Romana and... More

Great service, great food. This is a traditional, almost formal dining experience, though not pretentious. Be warned, in the basement with all the trappings it is hard to remember it is lunchtime! All too easy to have 3 lovely courses with a nice wine! Definitely be re-visiting for an evening meal.
