Zur Laterne in Duisburg

I can definitely recommend this restaurant. The trip from Dresden was worth it. Delicious food (we had wild boar ragout with red cabbage and wonderfully crispy rösti with delicate cranberries in a sauce perfectly matched to the meat), very friendly, courteous, and attentive service, and a wonderful atmosphere rounded off this visit. I'd be happy to come back here again.

As always, very tasty food, great service!!

I come from the south and have already eaten a few onion roasts...BUT I never thought that I would eat the best in Duisburg. He won me over from the first bite! Apart from that, everything else was great. The service, the drinks, the atmosphere were great and the price was absolutely fair for the taste you get! I will come again! Especially for the onion roast!

Nice authentic restaurant with good food, tasty curry, sausage, delicious apple strudel with vanilla sauce

Super tasty 😋 fantastic food, beautifully and comfortably furnished. You can't complain, great!

Amazing food! We had the pork knuckle and the cut of meat was huge! So tender and the rest of the meal was delicious. Great service! It was a little quiet, but we were there on a Monday night

Tremendous food - I had the pork knuckle, massive portion. Quiet but just a Monday night

Recommended. Good menu, so good offer. Maybe a bit pricey but it was worth the money. Very well attended.

The shrimp are to die for. Harmonious in taste and presentation. The Geschnetzeltes 'Zurich Style' is also my favorite.

Schnitzel lantern always works.

The food and service were really great!

Super delicious food and great staff. Only recommended.

Nice restaurant with great cuisine! We received excellent service; we haven't experienced such nice service in a long time. Highly recommended, we would love to come back.

Super tasty. Here you can get really good German cuisine in a cozy atmosphere. The interior of a historic tavern is fitting and the service is top.

Yes, I can recommend the place! Service was very nice, food was very tasty. A little savings is made with sauce, which I think is a shame since it's probably not the most expensive product on the plate. Dumplings taste even better with sauce! The atmosphere is also very nice, we enjoyed sitting there for a few hours.

Very friendly service. Good quality food. Cozy atmosphere. You feel welcome.

Rustic restaurant with good home-style food. Very nice service. But there is always something vegetarian on the menu.

A nice restaurant with very good cuisine.

The meat is very tasty, there is no pig smell, and the portion is so huge that I really couldn’t eat it until the end. These are all good. But the skin is not crispy at all. It is even very hard. It was so hard that it scratched my mouth. This is very bad. I eat this dish just for the crispy skin, but the result is not crispy at all. The price of 24 euros is not too cheap. Yes, so I won’t come again next time.

Been here for the second time and fell in again after the last disappointment! The first time I had kidneys that weren't completely clean and smelled like urine and it was NOT edible! I haven't received any money back! The second time I had the variation of game with cabbage. 2 of the 3 pieces of meat were completely fried and hard! I can NOT understand the good reviews! And if I pay almost €40 for a dish! I did NOT receive a refund or price reduction both times! I will avoid this *restaurant* from now on! It seems like the chef is overwhelmed. For whatever reason. Service was quite ok, although you had to wait a long time until someone showed up to see who you wanted, but they were friendly.

Home cooking at a high level! There's something for everyone on the menu - with regularly changing seasonal and regional dishes. Service is very attentive and friendly. Definitely worth a visit!

The food and service was really great, the restaurant was very full, we had reserved a table for 7 p.m. but had to wait another 30 minutes. That was the only drawback, the food and service were otherwise top. Happy to come back 👍

Eater very tasty, nice atmosphere, definitely recommended!!!

Everything is great, the service is nice, very fast and competent, you can find very tasty dishes there.

Very nice food. Perfect schnitzel and all the trimmings. Fast courteous service. Calm environment. Very nice atmosphere.

Fantastic Wiener schnitzel! Great beer as well.

Impudence! We had ordered pumpkin soup and were really shocked and speechless when we saw it. A huge plate with a blob of soup in it. It was not possible to dip the spoon into the soup. My companion had only ordered soup and was looking forward to it. But we immediately lost our appetite when we saw the portion. I ordered another portion of rösti with salmon and was disappointed there too. A rosti from the pack and a slice of salmon. We felt really cheated. And then there's a cheeky waitress who probably doesn't feel like doing her job. The good reviews written here are incomprehensible to me!

Great food, super friendly staff.

Very nice and attentive waitresses. The food was very good. Even though the restaurant was fully booked, things went smoothly. Definitely a recommendation.

I like to go here again and again. Rustic atmosphere, great service and food that tastes good and fills you up. Whether schnitzel, endives among themselves or beef roulade. Here is German cuisine that can do it. Please stay like this!

The original Wiener Schnitzel is MEGA!

It's very cozy and the food is delicious 😋

Again and again. Delicious, friendly, attentive staff.

Gute Qualität der Zutaten, sehr appetitlich angerichtet, alles lecker. Sehr gut besucht, dadurch etwas laut. Insgesamt aber angenehme Atmosphäre. Personal maximal freundlich und aufmerksam. Wir kamen für einen Imbiss am Mittag und kehrten gerne auch zum Abendessen zurück.

Very tasty, traditional German food. Fried pink, very tasty sauces. Leading stores for generations. Top 👍

Mega delicious starters. Service was simply top. Gladly again! We ate here for the 5th anniversary. The dessert sorbet trilogy with homemade sorbet ice cream in 3 flavors is enough for 2 people and is brilliantly served on a nice, large plate.

The food was excellent as always. When the restaurant is full it is very loud and difficult to have a conversation. This time the service was unfortunately a bit overwhelmed by the rush.

Not cheap, but the food and ambience is worth the price.

Food was very good. The baked apple dessert was far too small for the price. The apple was the size of a table tennis ball and cost over €9

I was very impressed by the rustic, cozy atmosphere. This is still a real old restaurant. As expected, the food was very good and filling. The prices are a little higher than elsewhere but you get what you expect. It was very tasty and down-to-earth with no frills. The service was very attentive and friendly. Overall, we can only recommend it. Thanks

Very tasty food at fair prices.

Very friendly staff and really tasty food.

Very friendly restaurant. Very tasty dishes. Highly recommended. Friendly nice service.

Just as I imagine a rustic restaurant, ambience top notch, attentive staff, food very tasty, only point of criticism, the wrong Altbier. I would prefer Bolten.

We went to Lantern again after a long time for Christmas dinner with friends. 🎄 From the reservation to the service to the food: everything was excellent! Whether venison medallions or roulades, the food was incredibly tasty, to the point and cleverly prepared. The service staff are polite, committed and, for example, bring everyone's food at the same time. So also good organization in the background! We'd love to come back! And greetings to the chef Adam! ✨ PS: Since we are flexitarians, this wasn't a problem for us, but apart from one dish there is nothing for vegetarians/vegans here. So clarify in the group beforehand.

Cozy and good restaurant in the heart of Duisburg. Good German cuisine! Clear recommendation

We just ended up here spontaneously and ate, the food was great, the service and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Unfortunately it's a bit expensive.

Already the second time I've been there. The schnitzel was fantastic again. Service was very friendly. We also brought four Schwein hacks for family back home. They also had a delicious meal. Top restaurant

Typical food as we know it from the past, which is rarely found anywhere else on the menu. For example, mashed endive, Rhenish-style sauerbraten, beef roulade or Rhenish-style mussels. Large portions, reasonable prices and very good quality. Only vegetarians and vegans could be offered something more, such as mashed endive instead of bacon and black pudding with fried eggs. Or a mushroom pan with spaetzle. Very friendly staff. Even without a reservation you can get a seat, even if you have to wait 5 minutes.

The meat of the knuckle was very tasty but the skin was tough like "leather" and unfortunately not as crispy as we had on previous visits...unfortunately! We had the impression that the service didn't really take our advice about this seriously?

Old school, but good, ambience good, old German inn.

The schnitzel was excellent and more than enough. The roulade was okay, but could have been a little juicier.

Rustic restaurant - very nice, courteous staff - delicious, if not outstanding, food - priced a bit too high

Quaint, cozy restaurant with good drinks and fantastic cuisine! The goose was amazing

A very nice restaurant also got a table without a reservation

A nice, quaint, traditional restaurant where you can get very tasty dishes. We would love to come back 👍

Honest, home-style cooking in great quality 👍🏼👍🏼

Wonderful ambience and top food! The service could be a little more attentive when it comes to drinks. In some cases we had to place orders again, but due to the sociability it was hardly a problem.

The Lantern is a rustic inn with great Rhenish cuisine. The ambience is unique and takes you back to the time of the breweries in Duisburg. The service is friendly and attentive and the food is really tasty and authentic. A great recommendation. Anyone who has never been there should definitely try it and anyone who has been there before will always come back.

A rustic, cozy restaurant with delicious food!! We'll come back when we're in Duisburg!

A rustic, cozy inn that warmly welcomes you with friendly staff and delicious food. I had a Spanish starter, shrimp in olive oil with garlic and chili. For the main course, the Rhenish sauerbraten with red cabbage and mashed potatoes. I can only recommend it.

Really cozy restaurant. Traditional German cuisine, fresh and super tasty. I had endive with black pudding, perfect. From the next table the smell of the roulade.... Today I will also try the bacon pancakes and the sauerbraten. Definitely recommended!!!

Great location with great service and delicious food. We come for lunch once a week.

Solid, good home cooking in the heart of Duisburg. The veal schnitzel was to die for; like the beer on tap (KöPi or Diebels Alt). Some of the fried potatoes just grazed the pan and were almost raw. The side salad was rather small. Great atmosphere and well shielded from the madness in Sonnenwall.

The food was delicious and the service was very fast and attentive, I would return here the food is well worth the price

We sat outside for lunch to enjoy some schnitzel. They made it with chicken to our order (and veal) and took a lot of time to explain all the sausages. We had a delicious lunch, huge portions and satisfying experience. The coleslaw salad is amazing!

One of the few pubs with real, home-style Ruhr area cuisine. Can only be recommended. Definitely coming back. Top

Mega! Be sure to visit! The service was extremely friendly! 🎉 The knuckle is worth all the effort to fight through the crust! The lantern schnitzel is a tasty treat! And the women's place setting is even available for men 🩷

Wowwww! The food (schnitzel) is yummy and the people are friendly.

The service was always friendly, the food came quickly, good home cooking and always very tasty

Veal schnitzel with spaetzle and chanterelles, simply mega 😋

De medewerkster heeft totaal geen begrip voor mensen die heel slecht ter been zijn en de menukaart is zeer beperkt en het eten is erg prijzig

I'm disappointed. Prices are too high, food isn't special. For prices like that you have to have something, at least fresh. My first and last time here.

Delicious German meal 'schnitzel zur laterne' that was really German. 2 schnitzels with onion, egg, bacon, vegetables and fried potatoes. It was delicious (almost too much). Friendly staff and a real German atmosphere.

Situated right in the town centre. If seated outside it can be quiet noisy and that can either create or destroy an atmosphere depending on what you prefer. Struggled to see what distinguished from any other restaurant serving "local" food but everything was fine.

I haven't eaten so well in a long time

Delicious German food in a city where there are many Doner shops. A bit pricey. But better expensive than not for sale, I say

The food is very delicious and the staff is very gentle.

You should be able to give 6 stars for the ambience. Rustic, well ventilated, people like to linger here. Menu regional and hearty.

The dishes are abundant and the quality of the product excellent. The schnitzel was tender and juicy and the knuckle and its garnish were delicious. We will be back!

It was my first time eating Schwein Haksen and it was so delicious... The portion is really big, so please order one Hakse for two people!!! Otherwise, you can order the leftovers to be packaged, so make sure to eat them cleanly!! Haha it was a good experience 🤤🤤

Very pleasant. The restaurant room is old, very well decorated. Beautiful stained glass windows

Food was great when in germany this is what to expect of a german restaurant. I really recommend the haxe. Servers were also really kind.

Classic ambience. Very good traditional cuisine with a twist. Delicious beers and friendly service

Great service from a lovely traditional bar.

“I would almost have written Ur-Bavarian Inn” if it wasn’t in Duisburg. Great classic dishes, along with many more. I've never had such a huge pork knuckle before. It was delicious. Service courteous. And very good tasting Williams.

Very tasty food. There are also dishes on the menu that you don't find very often. The guest room is rustically furnished. We had a lovely evening. The service was very nice. The restaurant is barrier-free except for two steps at the entrance. The toilet was not wheelchair accessible.

I went to dinner with my friend and what can I say, the food was great, we had knuckle and schnitzel lantern and a few beers with schnapps, thank you for the lovely evening.

Were here with a larger group. Food was okay but a little underseasoned. When it comes to service, you have to pay a lot of attention until someone comes. But good location and nice restaurant.

Unfortunately the food was very poor. We had beef roulade, which was unfortunately very dry. The sauce was quite salty. It completely covered up the roulade. Although the price has now increased significantly, the food was unfortunately very disappointing. It's a shame, we used to love coming here. The service was a bit overwhelmed, we had to ask several times that we wanted to pay. Overall we won't be coming back.

Very tasty food at reasonable prices. The staff are friendly and attentive. Definitely coming back.

Not cheap (!), but really delicious food. I had a brilliant Wiener Schnitzel with a very tasty, fresh salad... it couldn't be better! What could be better: our waiter wasn't unfriendly, but not friendly either. At a restaurant in this price category, I would also expect that the dirt or stains on the dining table would be removed by the guests in front of us... but that wasn't the case... we ate excellently on a stained table and it wasn't that bad either Interested in whether we liked it or not... but we couldn't have said no... 3 people... just over 150 € everything should be right... at least in my opinion

Very tasty food, everything was really top and the service was very, very nice. We will be back

Very cozy restaurant, delicious home-style food and very friendly service.

Super tasty food and generous portions. Fast, friendly service in a very cozy restaurant. Not super cheap, but considering everything, it's still totally within reason. Conclusion: For me a must visit when I am in Duisburg.

Great service. We really liked the menu and the food we ordered. Everything was very delicious. The guest room is cozy. We will come back

Great service, quaint and very tasty. Dear service. We'd love to come back

Hier kann man rheinische Hausmannskost im gemütlichen Ambiente geniessen. Die Bedienung war ausserdem freundlich, also, der Besuch wird bald wiederholt!

Very good service! Finally go out for a good meal again with a good selection of dishes

The food was tasty, the service was excellent, and the staff was extremely kind! Was a great experience, I can only recommend it! We tried a variety of local food, I tried a tasty pie filled with meat from a blood sausage, and my girlfriend had the typical Schnitzel! The portions are unexpectedly large, so be prepared and only go there if you are ready to eat a lot! :D
