La Lanterna Cafe Grill - Ridgewood

Very good local, family owned Italian restaurant. Appropriate, initmate atmosphere; attentive, nice staff, and very good, yet not very adventurous, menu and evening specials. If a very good, intimate romantic dinner is what you want, then make a reservation, grab a bottle of red wine and enjoy the evening. You won't be disappointed. Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Went for my birthday dinner- The food was amazing. The restaurant is very cozy and has a really nice ambience. Big portions and the service was phenomenal. The owner is there and takes a special interest in making sure your night is perfect. Thank you! Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Shrimp Parmigiana

Was there holy evening. great service and attentive staff. but the idea, a family style appetizer dish with 8 out of 10 pieces fried was just terrible. only too much fried food! the selection was good. the huge family style dessert dish was loaded with all kinds of tasty, but after eating so much roasted eating my heart said back!

Cozy restaurant with delicious food. beautiful exposed brick wall and soft lighting.
