    Friendly well trained staff greet you and take you into the Air/Con lounge. We preferred to sit on the outdoor patio for the fresh breeze. Menu has a great selection of favourite Italian dishes. There's a separate Thai menu that looks wonderful. The Four Cheese pizza was excellent. Served up quickly as well. A few couples were inside on romantic dinner. Very well decorated and comfortable. Highly recommend on your Samui Vacation.

    Finally, we reached this place, more than a year on Koh Samui and have not been here. We ordered 2 pizzas, the dough is divinely delicious 🤤 Lasagna, Corbanara, pizza burger, gnocchi Everything was delicious, large portions. Thx a lot, will back for sure ❤️

    Very nice restaurant located right on the street, which offers Italian and Thai food. Since I am in Thailand I ate of course a green curry. The food was very tasty and lovingly prepared. The staff was very courteous and nice. There is a very pleasant atmosphere. I can recommend a visit.

    I have only tried the meat Lasagna here . It was good but not like my mothers . The pasta and tomatosause was very nice and the cheese . Could have been in oven little longer for that nicer crust and heat . But if you long for lasagna after a few weeks in Thailand , I recomend coming here . One of the best I have tried in Thailand , if not the best .

    Very nice pizza, a little disappointed the pesto pasta didn’t have pine nuts alongside those ground into the sauce but it was nice nonetheless. It was also quite expensive for Italian food but I think food on Samui in general is very expensive in comparison to all the other islands we’ve visited. Would definitely recommend if you’re craving a tasty pizza. Lovely waitress, clean and cosy restaurant.

    Quality of the pizza is very good. The dough is excellent, the tomato sauce perhaps a bit too sweet. What is upsetting though is the price policy. The pizza is already quite expensive (about THB280 for a Margherita, if I remember correctly). But they will charge you THB80 extra for adding some onions. This is crazy - for this price you can buy 2kg of onions at the market, and here you get maybe 5 onion rings on your pizza. Bottom line: pizza 5 stars, but 2 stars subtracted for overcharging.

    Nice place and very lovely staff and service. Very good, authentic pizza, if not a little small. Good wine by the glass. Certainly recommended if you find yourself staying within walking distance of the place for real pizza 🍕, Italian wine 🍷, and exceptional hospitality. So sad how dead the island is now thanks to Covid. I feel so bad for the people trying to survive in the hospitality industry. Was there no other way to manage this awful crisis.

    Not a lot to add all great reviews. Pizza is amazing. For any city, country,... it's amazing. Thai food we tried is great as well. So if you are hungry and your family have mixed culinary tastes, either European or Thai, this is great place to visit.

    Best pizza on the island 🙌 there is some hidden gem in the menu 🤤

    Chosen this restaurant, because we stayed close to the house during our holidays. Surprised by the excellent Italian cuisine, by the quality at a fair price, and this does not always happen in Italian restaurants outside Italy. Special mention for the owner Mr. Giancarlo.

    It's my birthday and also our last day in Koh Samui; so I wanted to end it with a bang and eat somewhere special. I found La Lanterna on google and it's raving with great reviews. Well I'm glad I took the reviews to heart as the food was delicious! We ordered a quattro formaggi,amatriciana and carbonara and they were all superb. Service was also awesome. The owner and saff are all friendly and very keen to help. The place is well-maintained and aesthetics are on point, classy with a touch of beach vibes. It was more than 10 minutes drive from our hotel,so not too far. we would've driven 20 minutes for this place to be honest haha the complimentary limoncello at the end was a nice touch as well. so please come and try it out👍

👍 Rode the bike along the coast line and peeked in. What a million dollar view. Decided to give it a try. They have breakfast sets for about $7.50. Mine was Il Greco set with Feta cheese and spinach omelet, roasted potatoes, toasts with butter and jam, a cup of Cappuccino, and pineapple frappe. All...
