La Lanterna In Guiglia

We dined at La Lanterna several times during our stay near Guiglia, and each time it was perfect. The food is excellent and the service is attentive. Thank you for these delicious meals.

The restaurant changed hands a few months ago and has even improved upon the old one, despite it being excellent. The gnocco fritto and tigelle are excellent, along with top-quality cured meats and cheeses, which are by no means a given these days. Next time we'll try the rest, which, judging by the dishes we've seen, looks very promising. The service is excellent, always attentive and exceptionally kind. The place is very cute, and the outdoor area in the evenings is very atmospheric. We'll definitely be back soon!

Noi ci siamo fermati anche a dormire: stanze semplici, ma pulitissime che è la cosa migliore. La cena è stata spettacolare. Buonissima cucina locale fatta in casa. Ci siamo letteralmente sfondati anche se non avremmo dovuto ;). Il personale è davvero gentile e competente.

This year too we came to Guiglia for the borlengo festival, but this time too we preferred to eat comfortably in a restaurant. La Lanterna assured us a table for two in the second round, after 2 pm, but at 1:45 pm we were already seated. I'll start by saying that the food was excellent but the service was a bit lacking. We had two borlenghi, a first course divided in two, Lanterna tortelli, a goulash and a sausage with potatoes. The lady who took the orders, took them in her head, because the tablet wasn't working, but she got the first course wrong. As soon as we noticed the mistake and pointed it out, they immediately served us what we had asked for and to make up for it they left us the wrong dish, obviously not making us pay for it. A very appreciable gesture. Then they also forgot to serve the borlenghi... And after a couple of times that we asked for them we were finally able to eat them. Let's say that the service was a bit so-so but for how they behaved and the constant apologies for the mistakes, in addition to the really good food, we are sure that next year we will definitely return!

The restaurant has recently changed management and the new owners, Miriam and Gabriele, are a real force! Miriam is a dessert wizard and Gabriele is the perfect host: welcoming, attentive and always with a smile. The location is very beautiful, well-kept but with a warm and familiar atmosphere that makes you immediately feel at home. Lunch was excellent: special mention for the roast veal with potatoes, very tender and tasty. In short, a place where you eat well and feel good. Highly recommended!
