Lantern Whitefriargate, Kingston upon Hull, Hull HU1 2HP

"The steak is amazing, the service is fabulous (proper silver service) and Nikki is a wonderful hostess! The décor is retro but clean and very serviceable. You walk down this little passage way in between two shops in Hull city centre and up some stairs, you'll probably think you can't possibly be in the right place but when you get to the top you'll be greeted by friendly staff and the sight of enormous, melt in the mouth steaks cooking in the kitchen. If you like good steak and big portions then definitely give it a go!"

"The only true steak restaurant in Hull. Silver service at table, excellent food and customer service."

"A fabulous old school dining experience which you just don't find in Hull these days. A really warm welcome, we were seated in the comfortable bar area for drinks whilst we perused the menu, we gave our order and then after a short period of time we were shown to our table. My two sons had sirloin steak each that were cooked to perfection, I had a fantastic porterhouse steak that was packed full of flavour and my parents both had sea bass. The vegetables do not come with the meal, but this means you can choose what you want, and with the meal being silver served, you decide on your portions. Our table ordered three desserts as two of our party were full. A rather nice end to a great meal. I used the gents bathroom as I believe if a restaurants toilets are clean, everywhere else will be clean and my theory holds true. The toilets were clean, hygienic and smelled fresh. There was a plentiful stock of hand soap and hand towels. This little restaurant is a gem of a find, and it can be quite easily overlooked when walking down Whitefriargate. This restaurant has been going for a good 60 years and so I would hope people go and support this local business so they can look forward to another 60 years in Hull"

"We had garlic mushrooms to start and grilled sirloin steak & fries and scampi provencale & fies plus a Greek salad. The food was excellent (the garlic mushrooms to die for!) and the customer service was impeccable, very personal and friendly. We would have had a dessert, there is a great selection, but we were too full... I highly recommend this lovely, family run restaurant in Whitefriargate, Hull. If you like great food and friendly service, this is the place to go!!"

"The food is to die for! The service is of the highest order, real people no standing on ceremony and the restaurant has a magical ambiance!"
