La Lanterna is the classic family-run Italian restaurant. Great service from experienced servers and wonderful food. We try to stop in at least once or twice each time we visit CDMX.
AMAZING. It's a traditional Italian restaurant with great food, excellent service and wonderful vibes.
We visited La Lanterna at the recommendation of our priest, who said it was the best Italian he's had outside of Rome. It didn't disappoint. The pasta was perfect and the service top notch. If you're travelling, this is a MUST STOP for your vacation.
Had a solo Valentine’s Day dinner here and was made to feel right and home and so well taken care of by the chef, manager and wait staff. The tagliatelle bolognese was just how I like it very rustic and homey just like you get at a farm stay in Italy . Chocolate cake was also delicious. Thank you for making my evening so special
We were fortunate to find a this place offering great take-out near our hotel during a COVID shutdown. It’s been in the family for 52 years and they take great pride in what they serve. As exceptional restaurant, reasonable price for quality. Let’s support them so they don’t loose a great place when COVID finally ends!
From 1966 to today this is the place where italians eat italian food in Mexico City. Excellent food, flavors from home, good service, reasonable prices. 3 italian generations tasting home dishes
One of the most authentic italian places i have tried in mexico , it compared to the italian in NYC . Taste as if someone grandma was in the back cooking . The eggplant parm was delicious the owner and his son was close by as well and was super friendly . One of the best places i ate in mexico . Definitely a place to check out and highly recommended.
