Die Laterne in Osnabrück

Food was very tasty, drinks came to the table quickly. The waiting time between drinks and food was a little too long. Can only recommend the restaurant.

A wonderfully authentic, delicious and Syrian meal!! I've eaten at many establishments of this type, but none compare so well. Syrian cuisine is a challenge in itself, presenting it in such a way and guaranteeing a taste experience is a real achievement. I am impressed and overwhelmed at the same time. Sincerely (restaurant connoisseur)

Great food and good vibes! The waiting time was a little long and the food was no longer hot (but still warm enough in my opinion), but that was probably because there were 12 of us here :) Furthermore, listen to Felix

The food is very tasty and all adults enjoyed it. The portions were large and you were full. However, there is no special food for children. Requests for changes were not possible, which is a shame. The ambience is not that nice. Downstairs you sit so tightly that you can't have a conversation. Room dividers and seating areas bring in less sales, but they would really do the atmosphere good. We'll definitely come back, but without children!

The taste of the food was perfect, but unfortunately it was only lukewarm on the table. The ambience is very nicely decorated in an oriental style, but unfortunately also too dark. Unfortunately, I had to turn on my cell phone flashlight to read the menu. (A little tip to the service staff, just light the candles on the tables when a guest comes, otherwise why would you have decorated them on the tables) The font on the menu card is too small and doesn't stand out well from the background color, making it difficult to read in the dark. The female service staff wears plenty of jewelry on their hands. I once worked as a waiter in a restaurant and learned during hygiene training that this is not allowed because it is unhygienic. However, the service at the table was friendly and the food was served in a reasonable time. Thank you for the nice evening with you.

A good place for meat lovers. The prices are reasonable, the menu is very varied, and the taste and quality of the dishes are at a high level. A good place for meat lovers. The prices are reasonable, the menu is very varied and the taste and quality of the dishes are at a high level.

Food is ok Could use more spices Came to the table at most lukewarm Anything can happen Not a highlight for me Ambiance and service good Everyone should decide for themselves whether to go again

Everything was super tasty. There is absolutely nothing that wasn't tasty. Then very friendly and quick service, it couldn't be better

Ordered Shawerma Arabic but something different came, didn't taste good, the meat was dry like wood.

Very tasty food, fast and courteous service, friendly dealings and overall, simply recommended. The lamb chops are juicy and fantastic and the homemade lemonades/juices are simply delicious. But if you don't like rose water, you should read the menu carefully, as this is often included.

Really sophisticated flavors with a good price-performance ratio. The Syrian tea was expensive (8€) but excellent.

Incredibly friendly and courteous staff, which you don't meet often anymore. The food also tasted great, you just have to know what you like. Very quick service and you didn't have to wait long for the food. Taking it home wasn't a problem either.

Very friendly staff, great suggestions made with delicious starter plates. Great food, great ambience. We'll be back 👍👍

We don't go there often and yet the waitress remembered me. Has very tasty food A1

Three of us went there for dinner today. Ambiance is nice but little things like the men's toilet or the ceiling lights in the restaurant can still be improved. What seemed strange to us was that we were the first and only ones at 5 p.m. and still got the worst seat. When we left the restaurant, everything except 4 tables were still free. Not acceptable for me personally. Anyone who offers something like this in a price segment should pay attention to little things in order to get a good rating. We can't say anything bad about the food. The dishes were all very tasty and the portions were large.

Reservation worked great, food was delicious, service was very accommodating ((Thanks Lena), only the acoustics could be a little better. We'd love to come back!

A really cozy restaurant with very good and friendly service, we felt very welcome, which is no longer a given in restaurants. The food was also very tasty. We'll definitely be back!

We ate here for the first time today. Called spontaneously and got a seat. We didn't have to wait long for the delicious food, even though it was already busy. There is a large selection and we are happy to recommend something if you ask. The atmosphere is nice and the staff is very friendly and accommodating!!! We'll definitely be back!

A very nice evening!!! SUPER delicious food (a lot!) remarkably friendly, personable and attentive service by Petrus! Thanks for the great evening in the Orient!

Very tasty food and nice staff. I'd love to come back.

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. Looking for something new, we spontaneously decided on this restaurant in Osnabrück. The staff was very friendly and gave us excellent advice on choosing the dishes. Overall, a thoroughly successful evening that we would like to repeat.

Unfortunately the food was extremely oily and greasy and we felt completely sick afterwards. Unfortunately, this doesn’t have much to do with Arabic cuisine…

WOW, we were guests at the Lantern for the first time. It was very full, we spontaneously asked if we could get a table. Very friendly staff. We enjoyed the food very much. Price/performance is absolutely right. Really highly recommended. We'll be back 😊

Great food with a large selection

Best meal in a long time!! Tip: Since the majority probably see it that way, it seems that 98% of the time is reserved here. We were there right at 5 p.m. and noticed that up to 15 people could still eat before the reservations were made (until around 7 p.m.). So it’s better to reserve 🙂

Super delicious food Greetings go out to Petrus, top service :D

Very tasty food, friendly and attentive staff, portions are more than sufficient. Waiting time is okay, everything comes to the table hot. Highly recommended and we will eat there more often.

The taste was good, but the drinks were warm

You can have a great evening as a group/family or couple. We really enjoyed it as a group.

Very friendly staff, the food was delicious, but we were unlucky that we had to wait an extremely long time for it. Otherwise definitely worth a visit.

Very cozy atmosphere and the food tasted great. Sergei

We were at Lantern last night. Great food and great ambience

Very friendly and attentive staff and fantastic food that is also stylishly prepared. We'll definitely come back.

This restaurant never fails to please. The quality of the food service can no longer be compared after years. Staff are always ill-tempered, disorganized and unwilling to serve, as one would expect from a decent restaurant. The customer is to blame for arriving late. It's a shame, I brought my whole family there and a lot of friends. For me, the lantern is no longer recommended. Falafel tasteless, cold chips and Halloumi cheese just as hard as a rock. I hope with all my heart that this lantern I met comes back.

Delicious!! 🤤🤤 Completely perfect.

Ate Syrian for the first time and I was thrilled. Shawarma was super tasty and I drove home super full

Delicious, large selection, cozy atmosphere. Service makes you wait a long time, doesn't understand some requests, prefers to chat with colleagues rather than deal with annoying guests. Delivery service good and fast.

Good restaurant, the waitress was great, friendly, competent, careful....Food good...Syrian Something different, the rice was recommended to us and was really good...

I always like to come by when I'm nearby. The food is super tasty and very tasty and the homemade lemonades are just great. The employees are particularly nice, something you rarely experience. They are very attentive and try to give the guests a great evening.

Ich war schon mehrfach im Restaurant und wurde nie enttäuscht :-) Super lecker, würzig und Preise angemessen. Nur nette Bedienungen! Am Wochenende, wenn viel los ist, hat man manchmal längere Wartezeiten… trotzdem 5 Sterne

Very tasty food. Diverse and good portions. Super friendly service and great ambience. Prices are absolutely fair. Gladly again.

Syrian fast food, tasty and good.

The lantern is still a great asset to the Osnabrück gastro scene. Very friendly service, an exotic but not kitschy atmosphere and very tasty food. Both dishes were seasoned to perfection and each flatbread had a slight hint of cinnamon. The baklava wasn't quite as sweet as I know it from the Maghreb countries, but that varies greatly from region to region. Unfortunately the card payment machine failed and I had to go to the bank. But well, something like that can happen. It is and remains a top recommendation.

I was there last week with 20 people. The staff was always helpful and the atmosphere is also pleasant. There is also a large selection of food without feeling overwhelmed for a good price. Definitely worth recommending

Food was super good and plentiful... Service very good... Ambience could be a little nicer... All in all - recommended

I can only recommend it, super nice service and delicious food. We'll be back :)

Very tasty food, but a bit of a wait and very large portions

Great, everything tastes great I will only recommend it

We went to Lantern for the first time today and treated ourselves to a starter, main course and dessert. We can't complain! Waiting time, food and taste were wonderful. And a big compliment to the service. The two girls (one of whom was new, I think) provided great service. The young man who was also there and always looked after everything was right, of course! ;-) Just one small point: the french fries were unfortunately a bit soggy and not quite hot. But we weren't there for fries :) Keep it up, we'll be happy to come back🌷

Unmistakable service. Oriental charming decor.. Great 👌

Very attentive, friendly staff. Mega delicious food. Really brilliantly seasoned, it's fun to eat

Very tasty and cheap food, highly recommended!

We were there with 22 people. The food was ready super quickly and we all really enjoyed it. I recommend checking out the menu on the website as the dishes are illustrated with pictures. There are also plenty of vegetarian dishes on site.

Falafel totally dry, hardly any sauce. Shawarma was also totally dry, the sauce was almost completely forgotten. Service seemed totally overwhelmed, but it was almost the best part of the visit 😅

Exquisite cuisine, perfect service, and an atmosphere that makes you feel good. A must for foodies!

Beautiful atmosphere with delicious food

Food was very tasty, service was attentive without being intrusive, atmosphere was harmonious

The food is always delicious and the service is excellent Every time I visit this city, I have to eat at Laterna Restaurant The food in terms of taste and quality is excellent The service is 5 stars Cleanliness is top Forward, good luck

We were there with 9 adults and 1 toddler. The ambience in this restaurant is appealing and appropriate. Since we came from out of town, the first thing we did was go to the toilet. There was a “defect” sign hanging on the women’s toilet. Unfortunately, no solution was given, so we didn't know where to go now. We were then able to order quite quickly and received our drinks and appetizers quite quickly. But from that point on we waited and waited. As I said, we had 1 toddler with us! There was a fairly large group in the back area that was just being processed. After we asked what was going on with our food, the waitress in charge came and told us that the group had already pre-ordered their food the day before and that it had to be ready first... well, no reason for me That could have been prepared...all in all we waited 1.5 hours for our food. This is almost no longer reasonable. However, I have to say the food was very tasty, which made up for it. The waitress was nice so far but didn't really care about us.

Laterna of the Levant and now Laterna of Osnabrück. The honor of the name is enough

Located in the heart of Osnabrück, the name hides a restaurant with Syrian and oriental dishes. The food was freshly prepared, beautifully presented and very tasty. The price/performance ratio is absolutely right. Unfortunately I had to deduct a point in the service area. The very friendly waitresses seemed a little overwhelmed; we had to wait a long time for our food. Perhaps it was also because the restaurant had a lot of visitors. In total I like to give 5 🌟 and 👍. I can only recommend the restaurant.

Nice atmosphere, large portions of delicious authentic food.

Let's hope that the kitchen is cleaner than the totally filthy high chair that was brought in. We always thought as we passed that it was a better kebab shop. But we were very wrong, except that the whole table was visually clean but somehow sticky. As fans of Arabic cuisine, we were not disappointed here, on the contrary, we were really excited!!! Very nice decor, very nice service and of course the super tasty food, clear 5 stars. We will come back often and eat across the menu.

Come from Norway to the incredible restaurant every single time I'm in Germany, meaning food, service, atmosphere, tasty dishes. It's one of those things I look forward to every time I visit. It has become traditional for me to be here. Highly recommended, and I look forward to the next time. 😊

It couldn't be more perfect. A beautiful shop in a perfect location, super friendly staff, reasonable prices, incredibly delicious food and the best beer in the world. We'll come by more often from now on.

Everything was very very good. The food was perfect, both in appearance and taste. The service deserves not 5 but 10 stars. The blonde young lady does her job more than excellently.

The food is delicious. I will gladly come again . Marei is a very nice guy. And you don't have to wait that long for the food. Excellent!

The online reservation worked well and we received a table confirmation very quickly. The reception and service was very friendly. Unfortunately, our table was in the entrance area and the ambience was slightly spoiled by the large number of guests coming and going. We can't judge the authenticity of the food, we enjoyed it very much, mildly seasoned and attractively presented, the mixed starter plate with flatbread and Arabic kebab with biryani rice. The König-Ludwig on tap went very well with it.

Delicious. Unfortunately we had to wait a long time for food.

The food is down-to-earth and delicious, and the service is very accommodating. The atmosphere on the upper floor is not very comfortable and the whole table was sticky.

Sehr schönes Restaurant mitten in der Innenstadt von Osnabrück. Das Essen war umwerfend lecker, die veganen Gerichte waren ansprechend und meine Auswahl hat mich so begeistert, dass wir gleich zeitnah wieder dort einkehren werden. Der Service war freundlich, schnell und problemlos. Wir saßen draußen in einer belebten Einkauffstraße, was jedoch trotzdem nichts an der Gemütlichkeit und dem schönen Ambiente getan hat. BIsher habe ich hier das beste vegane Gericht in der Stadt zu mir genommen und freue mich erneut auf den nächsten Besuch!

A very nice break with mega delicious food

We ate there for the first time, but certainly not the last. We found Meryem's service to be great and felt that she was genuinely and honestly interested in the guest. Competent and very friendly advice, we felt very welcome and comfortable. We also found the food delicious and enjoyed it very much! We would love to come back!!!

This was the worst restaurant I have ever visited, never again. Long waiting time if you are waiting for something special. The food was very cold. No taste, way too expensive for this cheap quality.never again!

I've rarely eaten something so tasteless. Gauda as an export hit to the Orient was also new to me. We never again.

Great selection with numerous vegetarian dishes. All very tasty. Friendly service. Well attended, so be sure to reserve. Gladly again!

Good ambience, great service and delicious dishes. I definitely recommend lamb!

Very tasty, authentic Syrian cuisine, which can be enjoyed wonderfully in the appropriate oriental ambience.

Price-performance ratio is good, the food was delicious, I would happily do it again

We had dinner at “Die Lanterne” yesterday and we really enjoyed it! The food tasted really good and the service was very accommodating. The next visit is already safe :)

Extremely delicious food of the finest and highest quality! If it were possible, I would have given 10 stars! We had a starter, main course and dessert - delicious! A recommendation!

Very tasty, nice and attentive service, nice atmosphere. A very nice evening.

The restaurant is in an easily accessible location, in the middle of the city, which looks very nice from the inside. In addition, the service is outstanding, especially the tall, blonde waitress is very friendly and funny :). You can't fault the food either, because as a vegetarian there is also a nice selection of food that tastes very tasty. In general, the atmosphere there is very pleasant and you feel very comfortable as a guest. In addition, there are the very good and pretty cocktails, which I liked best from the little bartender with the black, medium-long hair ;). So overall you can't fault this restaurant and can recommend it!

Nice restaurant with great food. Service - competent and friendly. We probably won't be able to get rid of each other any time soon.

Delicious food, good service, great ambience, it was a great evening, thank you very much. Highly recommended. Reservation is well organized.

Extremely very good food!!! You really have to praise it very much. I can warmly recommend unusual dishes, very tastefully seasoned with spices 👍👍👍. Absolutely top value for money 👍👍👍. Also with the drinks - they have their own lemonades, super tasty and really great combinations 👍👍👍. Service is very courteous and very nice 👍👍👍. I can absolutely recommend it with a very clear conscience 👍👍👍. Simply TOP

It doesn't taste very expensive at all

Very tasty food at fair prices!

Very tasty food and exceptionally nice and competent service - thank you Lena! We would love to come back 😊

Very tasty food, although it was full there was quick service and very friendly staff. Absolute recommendation!

Very nice restaurant, friendly service, meat fried very well and the rice is simply great and very interesting on google it was not very busy, but the shop was full for a Monday

First time in the lantern. Super attentive and courteous service. Very delicious food and fantastic homemade lemonades! Really only recommended. We will be back!

The food was very tasty. Food came very quickly, good, friendly and fast service. Definitely coming again.

Good selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes.

We were there for the first time and absolutely loved it. The food was really delicious and the portions were more than sufficient. We'll definitely be back!

The service was very attentive, very friendly and gave good tips when choosing. The food was very good. It was a very beautiful evening.

With a rating of 10 out of 10 for value for money, this restaurant offers truly outstanding cuisine. My sister and I first enjoyed a starter and then chose two main courses: my sister a vegetarian dish based on eggplant with biryani rice and a fresh yogurt sauce, I grilled flatbread with shawarma and garlic sauce and also biryani rice. We also drank oriental soft drinks – Vinito and Tutschami. Everything was very, very delicious. The service from the very friendly waitress KATHARINA was extremely attentive, friendly and particularly accommodating! Such outstanding service is rarely encountered. If we're ever back in town, we'd love to come back!

Super tasty and well seasoned. Very nice staff. The portions are huge. The homemade lemonades are special. The quality is worth it. Ambiance is great and has an oriental flair

My friends and I came after fasting for a long day, an hour after sunset. We sat down quickly, but it took us an hour and a bit between taking our orders and when the food came. They took a long time to take our orders, and they took a long time to tell us that the shawarma was pure, and after we ordered the second time (the same plate 3 times, the same shish tawook twice, and two pizzas), they brought us drinks after a while, and out of hunger and sadness, we shared our worries and sorrows until we were satisfied with the worries 💀 And after that, we started asking how we were doing, how long had we been? Is it time for suhoor already? One of us looked at the clock, and peace filled our hearts when we realized that there was only an hour of broth (sarcasm). 3 people, including me, ordered meat fattah. My plate arrived first and it was at room temperature. I asked him to heat it. After he twisted two wicks in the microwave to a popular song, the waiter came back to me and told me that it was eating cold because of the milk and tahini. So, shouldn’t it be a traditional fattah in the first place? And applied? According to this logic, falafel must come from the refrigerator because it also contains vegetables, milk, and tahini. The first time I eat in a restaurant, the customer is wrong. Then the choice of rice or potatoes is available in 70% of the varieties, and they are all the same rice and the same potatoes, meaning the rice is not made to order! An hour and a while to apply dish? Originally, the biggest warning sign was that 99% of customers are German, so unfortunately they are clearly the target segment. Fractal, I feel frustrated. I personally liked the food and atmosphere, but this is not the first time they have been late or the first time the food has been cold. But it will be the last time on our part 🤓☝🏻

A beautifully decorated oriental restaurant with a great ambience. Super delicious food and a large selection of drinks. The portions are very generous. Friendly, attentive and courteous service. You can only feel good. Always happy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
