Lovely pizza (nice and thin and crispy), great location but perhaps a little overpriced. 4 of us ate, and 3 of us had the mexicana pizza - not as spicy as any of us would have liked however - but this did not distract from the quality.

La Sorpresa

Reviewed By Stevehuddersfield68

Away from the main square you will find this excellent restaurant. We enjoyed it so much we visited twice in our week there. The bruschetta starter is very tasty and was Cooked perfectly so had it again on our second visit . The waitress and the owner ensure everything is ok , explained that as my partner ordered lamb it would take longer which was fine . On our visits we had lamb , veal , chicken and beef rolls all cooked to perfection with fresh veg. The wine menu has a great variety which we took full advantage of along with the desert menu great Irish coffee too. Lovely relaxed atmosphere serving very tasty food . A must if you are in Buggiba

We had a very nice dinner at this small and cosy restaurant. The complimentary bruschetta was a nice touch. I had a delicious seafood risotto and my husband had a gorgeous pasta dish. The wine was slightly more expensive than in some of the other places we visited but was very good.

This is a fairly small, cosy restaurant with a really nice ambiance. The menu has a large choice of pastas and pizzas and the wine is very reasonably priced. Service was great. I loved the pasta which I chose (Damiano’s special). My husband was slightly less enthusiastic about his lasagne which he found a little dry. He did however say that he would go back to try one of the pizzas which looked fantastic.

Reviewed By 08sd0

One of top #3 pizza I've ever had and I'm a pizza enthusiast, serving it around the world.The recipes differ and you might find some them really not on your taste just because you choose the wrong one.Just look carefully and pick the right ingredient for you.The location is appalling. But the staff is fantastic and they don't deserve less than 5* because of that.It could be crowded sometimes, so expect that. And it's off-way, so not really in line with other restaurants which you can easily choose from if this is full.But you should see them really struggling and working hard and you will understand they put their efforts and deserve nothing less than the best from you also.

We went to this restaurant on a Saturday evening. It’s not far from the square. I got fried tomino boscailo to start which was wrapped in Parma ham on a bed of salad in balsamic vinegar. I didn’t like the cheese however, if you do like this type of cheese it would be a very tasty choice! I then ordered a spaghetti marinara from the specials menu which a seafood love would definitely love! My partner ordered the pesto gnocchi which was gorgeous and the little Italy pizza which was amazingly fresh! It’s worth a try if you like Italian food! The staff were so friendly too!

Trattoria 'a Lanterna is a must if visiting the Bugibba area.The restaurant and outside seating area have an old world charm that make for a great atmosphere. I dined as a party of four and no one was disappointed in the quality of the food that they received. The service from the waiting staff was fantastic! The bread items and olives that we received upon arrival were as delicious as the main meals. A true, quality Italian!Wow!!! Thank you!!

A really nice, new, welcoming place, polite staff, good food standard, but kitchen struggles to serve within decent time frames if the place is full.We booked a table of eight on a Saturday night and within 10 minutes of being seated, we had ordered our starters and mains. Our starters appeared after 45 minutes, and our mains were served after 1 hour 15 mins after our starter plates were cleared...and we had to ask the staff whether they had an idea of when our mains were expected...Clearly the kitchen could not cope with the volume, including the extra tables placed outside...When one considers the pricing of some of the items (burger @€19.50) this place is not cheap. But when a long wait is compounded in having your main dish (in our case duck) not cooked properly, then this becomes a really bad situation....To be fair, the head waitress serving our table (after all the restaurant witnessed her putting up with another incident by probably another impatient customer) did notice that the duck was not eaten and said that this will be deducted from our bill, together with any complimentary desserts and liqueur, which we had.Our bill arrived, I gave it a glance to see whether the duck was removed (it was) and we paid up. Looking at the bill again at home, we found out that we were charged for a second bottle of white wine (which we didn't have) @€25... by coincidence, the price of the duck main...an genuine error or sneaky intention?If it wasn't for the fact that we were enjoying a long awaited family reunion, in a new, nicely decorated place with polite (but helpless) staff, one would think twice on revisiting, especially on busy days.The place has real potential, but they must solve their kitchen capability to cope. Otherwise if they want to become just another pizza place, they will lose out on restaurant patrons that are willing to pay a little extra for some really good new idea dishes.
