    I walked in with no reservation based on a locals recommendation. The locals are right and the food was great. Stick with Pasta, salad, fish or pizza and you will be happy. I always think hot bread is a nice touch although not everyone does it (they do). It's tucked in a cozy nook of a small side street and had romantic music playing throughout my entire dining experience . I will go back for more!

    Complimentary appetizer.  A pastry stuffed with ricotta.

    La Lanterna was recommended by our host so we stopped in for dinner. We looked for it the first day we arrived but the address we had sent us down a side street and we couldn't find it. My wife pointed out what she thought looked like a cute place for dinner so we looked at the menu and realized this was the place we looked for last week! We talked to the host and made reservations (highly recommended) for the following evening. We sat outside and perused the menu. We felt like a rose wine and the waiter recommended a local one called Visione. We both loved it and went well with our meal. While deciding, they brought a complementary appetizer. We decided to both try the "Traditional Menu" of eggplant Parmesan, spaghetti with zucchini "La Lanterna" style, pork tenderloin and desert. The food was amazing and there was a lot of it. For starter, eggplant parmesan. I like eggplant but am not a big fan, but it was cooked well and tasted fine. My wife said it's one of the best she's ever had! Next was my favorite, the spaghetti with zucchini La Lanterna style. It was so different and delicious. The host told me the basics on how to make the sauce out of the zucchini so I will be trying this out when I get home. The pork was cooked perfectly. Tender, juicy and delicious. Then they served lemon sorbet and finished with what I will call a riff on tiramisu. There was a yellow sponge cake that had a little limoncello soaked into the very bottom, then filled with a lemon custard and covered with whipped cream. I really enjoyed it. It was light and very flavorful. I will definitely come back during my next visit to Sorrento!

    Lovely spot for lunch. Pizza is incredible and cooked perfectly. Lots of delicious options for dinner

    This was one of our favorite meals while visiting Italy. The waiters were so friendly, fun and accommodating! The food was really good too and the special dessert of the day was amazing!

    Without a doubt our absolute favorite restaurant in Sorrento! Every time we vacation here we come back here multiple times each trip and I've never had a bad meal here. The service is amazing and the food is even better. Make sure not to skip the dessert menu. I wish I can rate this restaurant six stars!

    Stopped here for an early dinner. Enjoyed s glass of Prosecco to start. They served a bread basket with a few breads and olive oil and balsamic vinegar which was good. I ordered the Caponata Sorrento, which was so good! It was pickled vegetables, cheese, tomatoes, a few anchovies, rocket salad, artichokes... atop bread and it was really good! That was my whole meal. My friend ordered the Bolognese which she said was fine. We also got lemoncello to end which was very good.

    Great service, pretty good food, the atmosphere is very cool but don't expect to go there with a light wallet.

    The polpo (grilled octopus) with rosemary potatoes was phenomenal and I'm not bashful to say we ordered two plates it was that delicious!
