Love this place. Last minute decision to get a table due to offspring sleeping out. Usual exemplary service and the best steak in town. Always our first thought when deciding where to eat out.

Definitely recommend. Very generous meal and the steak was cooked perfectly. So nice to eat somewhere that isn?t a chain and has a bit of personality. Great service and hospitality.

The Lantern by Pappa Florou is truly a hidden gem, I?m not one to write reviews but I enjoyed my visit so much I wanted to share my experience. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by an intimate and cozy ambiance that set the stage for a memorable evening. The menu is a testament to the chef's culinary skills, I choose the pate for starters and steak for the main course, both were exceptional. My husband is a vegan and he was as impressed with his food just as much as I was with mine. Equally impressive was the service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a seamless and enjoyable dining experience. Their attentiveness and genuine friendliness added a personal touch that made me feel like I?d been visiting the restaurant for years. In a city filled with dining options, The Lantern by Pappa Florou stands out as a true hidden gem. If you appreciate great food paired with outstanding service, do yourself a favour and give this place a try.

AWESOME would describe this eating experience. The food is very very good and the steak?s were fantastic. I prefer my steak blue rare, I cannot or would not dare to ask for even a rare steak at most so called steak restaurants. That is not the case at Lantern, It takes someone who knows how to cook steaks to get it right. Lantern is just that place. A great evening out, made all the more special by Nikki, Maria and the staff. Thank you.

I had not been to the Lantern for a while, but was very pleased I decided to pay a visit again. Accompanied by my wife and two friends we were given a warm welcome and the friendly service was spot on throughout the evening. All of the meals for the table were delicious. The quality of the steaks and fish was excellent, full of flavour, cooked to perfection. We will certainly be going back again.

AWFUL customer service ruined our lovely meal. Been told that all customers must order a MAIN MEAL due to alcohol license is a complete load of bull.. where did you pull that one from? ? we was really looking forward to sharing a main and ordering all of the sides as we was told how nice all of the sides were. We had to change our order, felt rushed and uncomfortable and then when order came out we was pretty disappointed as didn?t order what we originally wanted. We then heard the RUDE lady (not sure if this is the owner?) slating us whilst we sat around 3 metres away just for asking if we could order another side? completely unprofessional! The vibe I get from this restaurant is if you?re not a regular, you are not welcome! Maybe explain to new customers how your system works as for first timers it is very unusual and confusing? Food was really really nice but definitely would not recommend or return due to rude lady. Think you need to take a lesson on customer service?

Never disappoints. I had a friend come and visit from York and I wanted to show him some Of Hulls history. We both ordered the steak, which was cooked to perfection. I love visiting the lantern as it reminds me of the great times I spent here as a child. Considering the age of some of the decor, the restaurant is immaculate and the service as always was first class.

What a hidden gem of a place this is!!!Located down a small alley and then up a few stairs.Into a lovely restaurant with a warm and very friendly atmosphere.Immediately welcomed by the staff who explained that they were very busy if we didn't mind waiting, we didn't and the wait was worth while!Our food was fantastic!!!!We both had steaks that were cooked to perfection. We had various sides, a large Greek salad, French fries, boiled potatoes and cauliflower cheese to accompany our meal. All bursting with flavour and plenty for the 2 of us.Dessert was equally as good, a Bailey's trifle and the Greek pastries, beautiful end to a great meal.Great value for money and will definitely be going back when we are here again.
