Reviews of Lanterns Restaurant
F. B.
Met here for lunch with 3 friends on a Sat afternoon. Lovely service, great menu choice and reasonable prices. Would definitely recommend. Didn't feel rushed at all and we were there almost 3 hours.
G. W.
What a lovely find. 4 of us are and drank for less than £60.
This was my Kleftico and yes, it was perfect. I could have cut it apart with a spoon. The veg, for me, were perfect however, for others the cabbage was too Al dente and the swede mash was too lumpy but I liked the difference in texture.
The Sunday roast that all the others in my party were described as delicious. The beef was medium cooked and the lamb (enjoyed by 2 on the table) was succulent and all were plentiful.
We did not have room for desserts but they looked stunning also.
We will all be going back.
H. T.
Went here for their lunch set and really wanted to eat Greek that day.
Took a while for the waiting staff to see us at the store which almost made us want to leave, but once they saw us service was good.
For the food, I liked it my partner really like mussaka and I had a stifado, both really tasty mains and we were surprised by how large the mussaka dish was, had to take it away cause couldn't finish it.
Good place to visit if you want to get a decent lunch set for Greek food
M. W.
Had not eaten there for some time it was better than before. Great food and service. A thoroughly brilliant experience
Thank you.
G. T.
Excellent food, great staff. Will definitely return.
C. T.
Lovely restaurant, great staff, amazing food. Only two things I would say let this place down is, 1 - the toilets are up some steep steps not helpful for older family members and 2 - the chips weren't that great. Otherwise I would have given them a 5 star.
T.
Lovely food, reasonably priced. Drinks are great prices. You get 2 slices of French bread and butter each for the table. I'd advise booking ahead as it isn't a huge place.
A. W.
Food excellent, generous amounts and very generous amount of meat, absolutely piping hot. Quickly served by attentive and very pleasantstaff. Always a really good experience love it here and love taking visitors here too.
T. W.
Absolutely gorgeous food, I spent my birthday here and was not disappointed. Will definitely come again.
M.
Tasty food, really good value for money! Staff were friendly and the atmosphere very relaxed. Perfect for a family night out. Bathrooms are upstairs, very clean, but not accessible for individuals who use wheelchairs/mobility aids. The garlic bread wasn't as aromatic as I would have liked and the dessert crust was a little thick. They did however use home made custard. The main was well prepared, with a good flavour. There were limited vegetarian/vegan options.
W. R.
Had a meal here before visiting the Theatre Royal to see 9-5 (Excellent) The restaurant was fully booked and we were pleased that we had a reservation! Seems to be a very popular eating place and the food was excellent, great portions, quite large!! I had the Duck main course and it was beautiful. The sticky Toffee pudding is really light and very tasty. Will definately go back when in Plymouth.
S. F.
Taken out for a mother's day meal. Great food excellent service. Forgot to take oil of biscoff cheesecake
V. T.

Popped in today 26.3.22 on the off chance they had a table. We were greeted by Chelsea who was just amazing, very attentive and charming and it was a pleasure to be served by her....definitely an asset to the restaurant.

J. L.
A lovely lunch great food brilliant staff and good value 😀
K. W.
The staff were excellent, super friendly. We had the the course set menu with was yummy and good value for money. The atmosphere with chilled and relaxed. The restaurant losses a point as it wasn't the best roast I'd ever had.
T. S.
Table service staff were excellent but sorry, can't go with the authentic Greek cuisine. The Kleftico dish veg could have come straight from a conventional English Roast, fact I'm afraid!
G.
I definitely recommend the camembert cheese starter. It's delicious! Many vegetarian options and welcoming atmosphere.
N. K.

J. S.
Always make a point at booking a table when on holiday in Cornwall. Well worth the drive for delicious freshly cooked food. You may have to wait a while but highly recommend. Book before you go so you are not disappointed if you cannot get a table.
P. S.
Love Lanterns!
Lanterns is a greek themed local eatery near Plymouth's Frankfort Gate, and opposite the old pannier market.
The food is good, the service is better. It's only a small place so I'd suggest booking in advance.
My friends and I have eaten here for special occasions many times and Ive never been disappointed.
K. A.
An amazing evening for my 25th birthday they made it so special, food was amazing and quick service even though there was 12 of use there was hardly any wait and all came out together staff were very friendly, helpful and we're able to have a good laugh with them.
L. R.
Lovely restaurant, great service, good staff. Very nice food.
M.
Quality food. My family and i were most impressed. 100% recommend to anyone.
The kleftiko is a absolute must. My favourite restaurant in plymouth.
L. S.
What a fantastic find. Attentive service and well executed cooking. We shall return.
t. s.
Lovely food and very friendly service highly recommended.
L. S.
Staff where very pleasent and helpful. Food not very nice. Roast potatoes had just been kept warm. Yorkshire pudding was just that a stodgy pudding. Food was just warm. Will not be going back there.
S. O.
You get a very warm welcome into the restaurant. The staff are friendly, service is fast and they do nice birthday surprises. I enjoyed the deserts i.e. chocolate cake with ice cream on top and cheese cake. The Panko King Prawns with sweet chilli sauce goes well with the garlic bread, I would recommend that. The food presentation is good and well done. However, if your palates are tuned to spicy foods you might be a little disappointed. Still go for it for the Greek experience.
T. H.
Lovley food hot and very tasty great service
T. S.
Helpful staff and great food
S. H.

k. l.
Excellent service and lovely food. Not many vegetarian options but I had a good halloumi kebab anyway.
J. T.
First visit to the Lanterns Restaurant today.
I had a steak meal with my dad and it was absolutely lovely! The steak was cooked very well to perfection and everything else was spot on too including the chips, peas, onion rings, mushrooms etc. Definitely recommend this place. Great service and Staff.
M. J. S.
Good value, good food and good service.
K.
We went here for my mother's birthday. Having never been before, I did not know what to expect however, the whole experience was fantastic. The staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The food was absolutely fantastic, and the menu was reasonably priced. The lamterns chicken and the beef stew were particularly good. A really nice change from our usual meals out, and we will definitely be returning at some point.
R. W.
Beautiful restaurant.. spotlessly clean....Such friendly waitresses..
J. R.
Gorgeous food. It would be awesome if they could introduce a few vegan and vegetarian options. They've made up a vegetarian dish for my partner each time we've gone but she would have a vegan option if there was one.
J. P.
It is a great place for older people dining together or alone as good value for money. Also a good place to eat if you are on a budget and want a good hot cooked meal. Service was fine but could be friendlier with new diners. Chefs work hard and had good banter going on between them.
L. A.
One of the best ,the staff are amazing and and so is the food 10/10
S. W.
Smashing meal. Tasted amazing. The service was brilliant as was the ambiance. Definitely to be recommended.
A. S.
I had the kleftico wasn't like I had in Crete more like a lamb joint it was however absolutely delicious. My wife had the belly pork in a sauce again she said and i tasted it was delicious. The staff very friendly and attentive without being overboard. Would definitely recommend.
R. M.

A. Z.

Awesome quality food, well priced chef cooked next to our table very friendly staff definitely up there for places to try in Plymouth. Welcoming upbeat atmosphere everyone seemed very pleased.
We sat next to some regular customers who gave us some suggestions on what to order . Looking forward to having a meal out with my partner and my daughter.
D. W.
Fantastic time meal and the service from the staff was outstanding cannot fault them and they were very helpful even though they were run off their feet. Thank you for a lovely evening 😊
L. C.
Lovely food and lovely friendly staff
S. D.
An excellent, reasonably priced restaurant. There are slightly cheaper alternatives, but The Lanterns offers excellently cooked food, with good portion sizes. Service is friendly but not intrusive, and there is a comfortable ambience. Fully recommended.
S. W.
Great food friendly atmosphere Lovely service
L. E.
Lovely food friendly staff
K. g.
Kelly and her team made us feel so welcome we went back again in the same week.i love good food .good beer and good service . This restaurant has erased the word good and replaced it with GREAT.
N. P.
Waitress was friendly. But unfortunately the food was just standard. We had a 3 course late lunch and to be honest none of the dishes were anything special. The dessert was unfortunately rather disappointing with a canned fruit triffle, and partner had the crumble which he said he didn't enjoy. Not somewhere I would recommend or return to.
S. B.
Very good friendly service, good size tasty roast, no room for dessert! Very reasonable price. We'll be back.
G. K.
The food didn’t impressed me at all, ordered the mixed grilled, too much of a greece. The menu how it was all separated, found it hard to understand the drinks menu which just wasn’t clear enough. 3 stars this time from me. They could definitely make it better.
M. H.
Absolutely lovely place to spend a quiet lunchtime or impromptu romantic meal. The staff are friendly and polite. The service is prompt and the meals are a twist on Anglo-Greek cuisine.
An absolute favourite of mine is the Liver and Onions, the Liver is always cooked to perfection and melts in the mouth from the first taste it was like being transported back in time to family mealtimes growing up as a child.
I wouldn't hesitate in recommending you visit and sample their menu for yourselves.
M. D.
Fantastic, we had the 2 courses for under £14, good portion sizes plenty on the menu, excelent choices on the dessert courses ( you can pay £2.50) for more choices but I found the selections on offer very good, once again good social distancing adhered to
J. T.
Great food and service, and lovely evening
P. H.
Excellent food and service well priced. The only downside were the toilets which were almost impossible for me being disabled they need to be ground level.
K. R.
Good food and friendly atmosphere. Staff efficient and a pleasant place to go.
K. A.
Fantastic food, service & value for money 👍
R. P.
Such delicious food, a well-rounded menu, no long wait, and a very reasonable price for such excellent quality. The staff were absolutely lovely and made you feel comfortable; would recommend to anyone!

Food & Drink ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Service ⭐⭐⭐
Summary ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Food & Drink 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Good menu, although due to COVID-19, some items were not available - I won't mark them down for that. The food was very good, witht he garlic mushrooms especially piquant. The souvla was off the menu, but the moussaka was very good and a decent sized portion, although I'd recommend sharing a side of chips with someone else.
Ambience 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
We visited on a Tuesday early evening and because of the COVID-19 "Eat Out to Help Out" offer of 50% off the bill Mon-Wed, it was busy. The staff had to turn away people who hadn't booked, which caused upset and unnecessary commotion for the poor staff to have to deal with. However, aside from those distractions, the restaurant had a nice feel to it.
Accessibility 2/5 ⭐⭐
The entrance and seating area are wheelchair accessible and on the same level, however, the toilets are up two flights of stairs with no obvious disabled toilet downstairs.
Cost 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The cost of the food and drinks was inline with what I would expect to pay for a restaurant meal in Plymouth, when you take off the offer. The bill came to £86 for 4 people, but I think the drinks (which aren't part of the Eat Out to Help Out offer) pushed that price up a bit.
Service 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The service was perfectly good with friendly, knowledgeable staff. The wait between courses was a little long, but given the hassle the staff had been getting from parties that hadn't booked, etc., I can't mark them down. It wasn't their fault.
Summary 4/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
I don't think I've been to Lanterns before, yet it one of Plymouth's most established restaurants. It was an absolute delight to get out to eat after COVID-19 lockdown, and I will be going back - It's perfect for the occasional treat dinner.
G. V.
Had a brilliant evening there for a birthday celebration. The food was excellent and good value for our money and the staff were really good, nothing was to much trouble and they did it all with a sense of humour. We will look forward to a return visit.
B. S.
Visit lanterns regularly. Amazing staff and food.
R. “. i. t. s. G.
First visit to this little Greek restaurant and had a very good meal - I had the kleftiko and my son the gammon steak - service was attentive and swift. Prices were reasonable from the varied menu. Would definitely go again.
J. H.
Tried this place on a whim whilst in Plymouth. Was very impressed. £12.95 for three courses that were beautiful and good size portions. If the price/quality/portions continue to be this good then we will absolutely become a regular 👍
M. W.
It was OK, but I wouldn't rush to go back. Disappointed with our meals.
Mixed grill wasn't very big and had less components, compared with other local restaurants and my Souvla was just 2 pieces of overdone lamb that really hurt my throat after swallowing a particular hard edge of a piece of lamb.
In other local restaurants, the Souvla is a whole skewer of lamb pieces.
However, my husband did say the Steak was cooked to perfection and I did like the Greek salad that came with the Souvla....good amount of Feta on it, which you don't always get.
C. H.
Having made a booking for a large party I was pleasently surprised at the pure quality of the service we received. All 20 starters and mains came out together and no one was left waiting for food and drink. The quality of the food was amazing and the freshness of the ingredients was amazing.
M. G. C.
We thought we give this place a go very nice indeed enjoyed my chicken soup and then a nii roast lamb staff friendly good service we will be back again soon.
D. B.
Best porter house i've every had, cooked to perfection. Visited with group of 6 of us and everyone was extremely satisfied. Lovely decor, professionally run, great service.
S. C.
We came here for the second time on New Years Eve, the restaurant was full and busy, this did not interrupt with the ambiance or the professional service from the staff. The food is always incredible here we both had steak and it was faultless. The prices are brilliant!
M. D. G.
A clean, contemporary space with open kitchen. Efficient, friendly staff who helpfully made recommendations and swiftly waited tables. Excellent food and delicious desserts on display in the glass cabinet. We will be going again :)

G. B.
Lanterns has been a favourite place of mine to go for the best fillet steak in the South West for a long time now! The steaks are always cooked to perfection and some of the most tender and delicious you will ever have! I always opt for the peppercorn sauce too when I have a steak at Lanterns and the sauce is very nice and not overpowering to the flavour of the steak and accompaniments etc. I have also had the beef stifado and the moussaka previously and they were both very good. The staff are friendly and attentive and were even willing to make an affogato which is not on the menu for my father when he asked if it was possible to have one for dessert! The interior is a nice modern style with pictures of Greece and well known Greek landmarks and landscapes and the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. Would highly recommend a visit but always worth booking in advance as on a busy night you can be waiting for a table for some time and people were queued out the door waiting for a table to become free - which just illustrates how good the restaurant is if people are willing to wait in the cold just to get a table at Lanterns as a walk-in rather than going elsewhere!
M. S.
Lovely staff. Gorgeous Greek food and generous portions. Also English food for the not so adventurous. Been coming here for over 2 decades 🥰
D. S.
The service was really good the food was excellent I had one of their musakas it was really delicious and it was served on really hot plates which I was impressed with as so many place serve up like warm food not here the food was piping hot ! The only thing I could fault the drinks were a little expensive but a apart from that all good
C. S.
Had a fantastic meal here. The food was great and so was the service. Going back very soon for my birthday meal, can't wait.
J. A.
Nice place, altho my camembert starter was only just cooked, not runny the way it should be. The kebab main course was enormous - stacks of chicken & rice, with salad. Very tasty tho, & they gave me a doggy bag to take away! All in pretty good. The steaks sound nice! Next time....
l. c.
Delicious food, piping hot, and quick service! They were really busy, but still attentive and polite! Would definitely go back
J. F.
Was a very nice welcoming place. Staff willing to help and were very polite. The place is a little small but worth going to. The food is great and the prices are very reasonable.
V. B.
Good food, lovely staff. A bit noisy for us, but that's what you would expect for the middle of the city.
O. H.
Took my girlfriend here for an anniversary meal. Food was very nice and quick, and the lady liked her desert.
Very good prices too. Rather have this than dominoes
D. T.
I haven't been there for years but my husband surprised me with a meal and my daughter and her family turned up as another surprise.The staff were very friendly and very helpful and the food.was amazing..the atmosphere was welcoming...and could've stayed there.for ages.It was as good if not better than I can remember ..and the new decor just adds to the ambiance..I have to give Lanterns five stars...and a big thank you to Demetri and the rest of the staff for looking after us all...and the cooks for such wonderfully tasty food.I wish you all a very Happy Christmas and a brilliant 2019.x
P.
The staff are quite lovely, the food is quite good and the restaurant small, but comfortable... Just don't bother with the ketchup or the fudge cake and you'll have a great time.

My wife and I had a simply marvellous 3 course lunch in The Lanterns Restaurant one Saturday after some shopping in town. We were both astounded by the quality and quantity of the food. Added to that is the fabulous decor, ambience and most helpful and welcoming staff! I took a pic if the interior whuch has an amazing total of 58,783 vuews this evening...it really is as good as it looks folks!
Well be back for sure!

Had liver and onions not good at all running with blood as vains left in to be fair when I showed the waitress she did show the chef and then they took the drinks off our bill but still very disappointed also the waitress went over to the chef he passed over a frying pan which she took food out of with her fingers and ate then the chef put the frying pan back on the cooker not a good thing to do in an open kitchen with customers sat watching I have eaten there a few times before but am sad to say this will definitely be our last
