One of the best restraunts in Canberra. An amazing fusion of Asian/European cuisine.

This is a sister to the Chairman Yip, which has been very good for many years. This restaurant is better. A more interesting menu and the service is great. BYO and licensed, this is a place for those special occasions. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough. I just hope that it keeps up the high standard it has set.

What I really appreciate about this restaurant is that their dishes are unique and creative. It is not a case of "here is Lanterne's version of ......". They have their devised dishes, which you will not find elsewhere. And it helps that it is all YUM! The menu is an eclectic range of dishes - mostly malay and the with... More

As a family we celebrated my wife's 40th birthday here. The food, as always, was delicious, interesting, and cooked perfectly. The kids were well looked after and welcomed. We will be back.

I just love this place, especially going in a group for lunch and ordering the banquet. My favourites are the duck spring rolls and the chicken. The staff are very attentive and the service is always fantastic. Its a little bit pricey, but so worth it.

Whilst a bit more expensive than other restaurants, this place is worth every penny! The interior is really well set up, service is always very attentive (although both times I have been, the same waiter kept pushing us to order more and more and spend more money which annoyed me!). Food is excellent!!!! Absolutely love it! If you're a foodie,... More

Everyone raves about this place but teh food for me has always been average - just too try hard. I am not into Okra and pig belly and fatty duck which is what has been served when I have been there for a banquet with friends. I am sure if choosing off the full menu it would be better but... More
