in the last weekVery good food and good service. The best in Detroit for Italian food and the best drinks in the city. The guy from Punta Cana, Ino, makes phenomenal cocktails; the best bartender in Detroit.

in the last weekWe visited this restaurant in December and I just had to leave out a review. The food is 10 out of 10, and the drinks are equally excellent. We sat at the bar with the amazing bartender, Inocencio, and it was quite a show, with his smoky cocktails and bubbles. We'll definitely be back soon, Lanterna family.
