" After several visits, I must say Lamplighter truly understands Italian cuisine! Every bite captures authenticity, especially noticed in their specials. The wait staff brought warmth, often refilling drinks without us asking. It’s a cozy eatery with charm that perfects the high expectations. Few places can create this kind of repeated joy—so worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve had mixed experiences with Lamplighter over the years. We were there last month, and the service was top-notch as usual. However, my entrée was a bit underwhelming compared to past visits—a lack of seasoning for the chicken which is typically so flavorful. The atmosphere remained enchanting as always, but I'm not sure I’d rush back immediately. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Lamplighter with friends for a casual dinner and was pleasantly surprised! We ordered a bunch of appetizers and the calamari was the standout. The marinara sauce was rich and paired perfectly with the crispy rings. The atmosphere was energetic, though a bit loud. Service was friendly, but our food took longer than expected to arrive. Nonetheless, a great dining experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lamplighter is my go-to! Although the wait times can be longer during peak hours, it's all forgiven once you taste their flavorful dishes. I had the eggplant and wished the portion was a touch larger, but the taste made up for it. Besides, the service staff never left us feeling neglected. I follow them on social media now to stay updated on specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" It's hard to criticize Lamplighter; they serve fantastic food! I had the chicken Parmesan, and it was cooked to perfection. The texture of the chicken was juicy and the sauce was flavorful. I noticed the restaurant was BUSY, but our server still managed to check on us without being intrusive. I'll definitely come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic experience. From the moment we walked in, Lamplighter made us feel welcomed. The risotto balls were a delightful starter, followed by the pork chop, which was juicy and delicious. Our server was attentive and helped recommend a nice bottle of wine 😊. Will definitely return for date night! " (*Curated Review*)

" Truly a mixed bag! My meal was excellent but my partner found his steak a tad overcooked—which was unfortunate considering the price. The service made up for it though since they offered to fix it but we were too far along into our meal. Really don’t want to give a lower score when the service was admirable! " (*Curated Review*)
