    This is a famed restaurant in Scarborough with a fantastic menu and specials list. There are lots…read moreof unusual fish and meat dishes here - think venison pasta and fish names you need to google. Ultimately, I thought the food was a little disappointing at this price point, but that may be personal taste as I found everything a little over sauced, which might not be an issue for others. Also, despite taking advice on the menu, I ended up with two very similar fish for boyh starter and main, so I suggest going for more of a contrast. The people here are very welcoming, and I would definitely go back if in Scarborough again.

    This is a classic throwback to another world. Its a tiny restaurant by comparison to many of the…read moremore modern places you'll find - only a couple of small rooms - and its not for everyone. The prices are more than you might expect to pay at a seaside restaurant (although still very reasonable) But this is no regular kind of seaside restaurant - a well kept secret which is worth every penny. Its a rarity for scarborough to have a place which has won awards and been recommended by respected reviewing bodies - Lanterna has been recommended by Which and won the official Italian restaurant of the Year Award. To back this up, testimonials from satisfied customers line the walls. A family run restaurant, service is friendly and never rushed. The food is magnificent. The wine list is extensive and authentic. The desserts are fantastic. Its not a place to visit as an everday experience, but as a treat, its unmissable. Remember to book in advance though - its only a small (around 30 seater) restaurant and is only open for a few hours per day.

    Pleasantly surprised at the quality of good and service!…read more All parties enjoyed their meals. All meals were rather large portions, a few homemade items avail as well.

    This place used to be spectacular before Claudio changed premises. I have been three times since he…read moremoved. On one of these occasions the waiter was a nervous English guy who had very little knowledge of the menu so when I asked him questions he just went red and said he would ask the chef. Ah the chef, Claudio is well known in the local Italian community for trying to do it all himself. Hence the sometimes incredibly slow service. I once waited an hour between starter and main course then I walked out. Yes it is good to see a chef that cares but get some help in there ! The food is generally good but is too expensive. The general ambiance is fine for romantic meal for two but I would not bring children here. Decor is fine and modern with a good waiting area. No pizza which is a slight detraction. Staff ever changing. If they could get consistency there then they could recapture that atmosphere they once had. Wine list is good but expensive. UPDATE I have been here about ten times in the last six months. I cannot get enough of the place. He has reined in the menu a bit and stuck at what he is good at. The risotto and pasta dishes are simply wonderful and the meat is still meltingly beautiful. He has just changed menu to reflect seasonal availability and has added some exciting variations such as salmon, swordfish etc. meal deal still on and well worth it. If you come to eat in Scarborough just once, come here. UPDATE JUNE 2012Its great to find a decent restaurant open on a monday night in Scarborough. For starter I had asparagus wrapped in Parma ham, stuffed with ricotta and baked in the oven. It was brilliant. A superb use of the ingredients. Claudios menu reflects spring and what is available locally. His Summer menu I am assured will be even better. My partner had baked goats cheese on pears and that too was lovely.For mains I had a fist sized fillet steak in a sage and garlic sauce wrapped in parma ham served on crostini with veg.It was so good I wanted to cry. It was simply awesome in the true sense of the word. I asked for it rare and it was just perfect, simply perfect. I did not need a knife to slice it as it was so tender. (SEE PHOTO) My partner had Risotto Reale which comes with a steak on it. She loved it, even though she had it murdered to well done it was still soft and tender. Service as always was great, attentive and friendly. I have raved in recent reviews about steak at other establishments in the town. They are superb. However the fillet steak served here is not just the best I have had in this town, it is the best I have had anywhere. Pure magic. You must try it.

    Unlikely to win any awards but this is not what a Pizza Hut is there for, they stand for quick…read morecalorific food served with a Peroni more elegance than a fast food vendor but a wine choice less than a Pizza Express. In Scarborough you will be hard pressed to find any of the more noteworthy establishments open for a lunch time service. This of course plays into Pizza Hut's hands. Although exceedingly busy the staff are well motivated and tick all the boxes. I choose four stars because the staff although swamped with custom have a sense of urgency whilst maintaing a slight personal touch. This is more than less family orientated Italian chains such as ASK can claim and for such a location you can forgive easily any waiting you may endure. I would like to see more competition in the high street in this town to really show a comparison.

    Generally, I think you know what to expect from Pizza Hut, just as you do with most chains. If its…read moreyour kind of thing - and especially if you have children - then you'll probably go back time and time again. If its not your kind of thing, chances are you'll avoid it. Pizza Hut actually isnt bad at all, and this branch is no exception to that. Its always been one of the more reasonably priced family restaurants - their all you can eat buffets in particular seem to have been around for years - and you're usually certain of getting a good meal. Like everywhere else in the town, its stupidly busy in season and occasionally at weekends, but its also the kind of place you never really have to wait long to get a table. Its very family friendly, and the menu tends to offer something for anyone, from pizza to pasta, which is always tasty if occasionally a little on the ordinary side. The service is always friendly and unhurried and its certainly a place which warrants repeat custom.
