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.

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

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.
