Lanterns - Menu

We tried to call here last night several times over a half hour but the telnokept saying it was the wrong no.

The food was excellent and the staff were extremely helpful in assisting us with selecting our meals for our party of 6 people.

The buffet menu offers great value at £22 per person. The atmosphere is lively, but can be noisy. There is a car park directly across from the restaurant, and it is an easy walk to the town center for bars and other amenities.

simply the best Chinese in ipswich! the food was delicious, hot and fresh. the service was fast. the waitresses are friendly and helpful. a good drink selection premium beer (peroni on hahn) and the bill at the end of the night was very reasonable. I'll be gone to take away from now on. I can't wait for my next visit.

this restaurant went out of the way to book a last minute of 6 on a Friday night. the waitresses were so beautiful, friendly, helpful and attentive. the restaurant and the facilities were clean. then there was food. we all had the buffet and every dish was amazing! and how nice to find a restaurant that she doesn't rush! we all hate to eat as if on a conveyor belt. we enjoy relaxed evenings when dinner as a family. thank you team lantern, you are fab x

the best Chinese in ipswich would be considered a massive understatement! every waitress will welcome her with a warm smile and they are really extraordinary! eating is just a second to none, fresh, taste and easy the best smoked chicken I had the pleasure to eat! the chef is top notch and I will continue to eat in lanterns as long as I live! a total of 10/10 experience from beginning to end every time without mistake. once again the smoked chicken is divine!

beautiful fixed price menu, eat as much as they all cooked to order, better than a help themselves buffet. if they don't want that to eat anything they like price menu. then they can order different menu money for each article of their choice. friendly, chatting staff, busy for a Wednesday, but still no problems with service and eating everything was hot, although they never got my pan sizzling bark wrong, brought garnel out, but they offered to get us them free and my proper order. I was glad to keep the garnels to avoid delays. very tasty, so no problem with me.

This isthe second time we have eaten here, first was a birthday, second was on valentines day. Both times the place was very busy but this did not affect our dining experience. The wait for food was no different to any other restaurant where food is cooked fresh. The food itself is amazing and we both agree they are the best ribs we have had in any establishment (from Norwich and this includes the many slow cooked/smoked/rib specialists there). Would recommend this restaurant to anybody, not just the all you can fanatics. Decor is very pleasant, staff very friendly and approachable.

Upon our arrival, we had to wait a short while in an invisible line before being seated. Unfortunately, the menu was not explained to us, so we had to seek out a waitress to ask for clarification. Once we understood how it all worked, we were able to enjoy our buffet lunch. The variety of starters and mains offered were all delicious and catered to different tastes. Our family of five had a great time. It was also Mother's Day, and my mum was offered a complimentary glass of Prosseco, which she declined as she does not drink. It would have been nice if a non-alcoholic alternative was offered, but it was not a big deal. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.
