Everyone knows of Italy's food culture. It's hardly breaking news. I always tell people, though, that the three things Italy really does "off-the-hook" brilliantly are 1. coffee 2. ice cream and 3. seafood. Well, with this restaurant, you can check item 3 off your list, becuase if there's better seafood to be had in Friuli (or even Italy more generally), I have not found it yet.The restaurant is owned by two sisters, who I believe inherited it from their father (the "Balan" of the name, I think, but don't quote me on that). I've been here twice, the vists two years apart, and it was SENSATIONAL both times. It looks very unassuming from the outside, and is hardly in the most salubrious of locations - on that note, I wonder at the non-Italians who found this place totally randomly by accident, but congratulate them - but it's a longstanding favourite of the surrounding region for good reason. Excellent wine selection and knowledge, excellent service, and most importantly, excellent food. Unless you know specifically what you want, I would recommend a starter of mixed raw ("crudi") antipasti, followed by mixed cooked antipasti. You really don't want to choose between the two (it's a real culinary Sophie's Choice), so go hungry! Then I'd have whatever main course they recommend that day, but would probably lean more towards fish (what's good depends very much on what the local catch in nearby Marano Lagunare was like that day) than meat. I'm not a big dessert person, so can't really comment on that, but I feel safe assuming the desserts are similarly excellent.As a bonus, it's also VERY reasonably priced for what you get!

Located just out of the town center, the restaurant was little drab. the hall was dark with ceiling fans blowing forcibly. The appetizers were expensive and the first courses were not imaginative. I had the mixed deep fry which was very expensive and offered economical fish, plus a few scallops. The hostess was professional but not very patient. It was apparent that she was more interested in gabbing with the larger groups than serving a lone customer. I don't know if I would return.

The restaurant is nested amidst green fields, just outside Fraforeano, province of Udine. It is surrounded by mature lush trees, which create the areaâs own microclimate and a welcoming dense shade in the hottest summer days. There is also a well furnished playground, which would be a boon for parents.The food is magnificent and it is freshly prepared daily using ingredients from the restaurantâs own garden. The meat is high quality and everything is cooked to perfection. The menu is composed of traditional German and Italian dishes, which provides a welcome variety from the standard restaurant fare. The wine and beer are of high quality and pleasantly chilled.There is a fix -priced lunch menu, however a la carte menu is also available at all times.The service is courteous and prompt. The prices are reasonable. The clientele is largely Italian (business men/women included) with a good smattering of international guests. This restaurant is highly recommended mainly by word of mouth, which is how I came to know about it. I am happy to add that my personal experience surpassed my expectations by a large margin.

Visited La Lanterna with a work colleague after reading your recommendation. He had been before and been put off going by slow service so I had to persuade him.On this night service was slow but not terrible but that said there really weren't that many tables occupied.I had a pizza topped with ham, olives and salami picante which was quite delicious.My colleague had very large super prawns on a bed of spaghetti as a starter which he said were tasty but they did seem very, very fishy smelling. This was followed by tagliata di roast beef on a bed of rocket. That looked and tasted very good.Overall service on this night wasn't brilliant so I would worry about going again if it was very full. Food was good but certainly not exceptional.I think La Lanterna definitely benefits from a lack of good competition to hit the number one spot in San Giorgio

Historical restaurant of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region, Michelin star, is part of the prestigious associations: "Jeunes restaurateurs d'europe" and "Le Soste".

The young chef here came to our table and discussed the dishes we might order for our lunch. He has earned a well deserved Michelin star.The servings are not large. They are beautifully presented. This is 'pretty food.'Prices are fairly high but lower than most Michelin starred restaurants.

A hidden place, slightly difficult to be found in the darkness...but at the end we've got it!Thanks to TA, we were concerned and ready to taste high quality seafood and, actually, no bad surprises; a creative menu and full of classical combinations.Portions are average, quality and lightness at high level, prices ok vs quality. Staff very kind and available to deeply explain all details about each choice.Really good dishes!The restaurant contest is not so cozy...probaby in summer time the external view and the inside ambience could be nicer.Thanks a lot to the staff for their kindness.

Let's start with the clever idea that Al Cjasal has implemented: you can get most of the dishes as a full portion, half portion or a bite. Excellent. With an interesting selection of dishes which changes seasonally and uses predominantly local ingredients, you don't have to sacrifise anything due to that. You know how it goes: you look at a menu in a good restaurant and have several things you'd like to try but have to choose only one.Well, we first had all possible bites - I thing there were eight or nine of them, not counting the complimentary little risotto which they prepared for a group sitting close to us and obviously get some extra which we gladly accepted.Al Cjasal likes to play with their food. The result is whimsical but not to a point of l'art pour l'art. Let me just give you one example so that there are not too many spoilers: you get a bowl of mussels. On the bottom of the bowl, there are just empty ones. On the top, there those you should eat. One half of the shell is made from a crispy, squid ink colored dough, resembling the real stuff. It is filled with baccala (salted codfish), topped with chives and other things so that it resembles a mussle. You remove the top (real) half of the shell and eat the rest in one bite. Marvellous. In taste (which counts), not only as a piece of culinary art.After the bites, we had one main dish each and just had space for one dessert.With a bottle of good local wine, water and coffee, the bill came to 145 EUR for three, which is an excellent value for both quantity and quality of the food we have.A definitive must-return when the season and menu change.

This restaurant is literally just off the main road in Latislana and obviously caters for Germans as well as Italians. If you are not proficient in Italian or German then take a phrase book with you as there are no menus in English and the waitressing staff spoke very little English. We guessed what to eat and the quality was really good - there was alot of red meat if that is your preference and looked very nice. There were some set menus and pasta dishes as you would expect - I think they offered pizza although this was not on the menu. The house wine was excellent - we only paid 9 euros for it - the other white wines started at 19 euros. Two courses with a 1 litre carafe cost 55 euros. Slightly lacking in atmosphere but if it is nice food at a reasonable price then this place serves that purpose well.
