LAVO Italian Restaurant - Las Vegas

"Lavo Italian Restaurant on The Strip hit the spot. I ordered the carbonara, asparagus and spaghetti and basil. All excellent choices. I would have ordered more, like the giant meatball, if we weren’t in a hurry to get to The Sphere. I’d book reservations as it fills up."

"The hosts were not very friendly, it seemed like they were doing us a favor by allowing us in. Then we got to the table and our server was great. He was punctual and friendly and knew the menu perfect. However he got busy and they changed us to another person. From there we didn’t get checked on, we ordered a second round of drinks and it didn’t arrive until after we were finished. We didn’t want them since we were done (took 30 min to get the drinks). Then another long period before they came back. The pizza was good and carbonara was exactly what I was hoping for. Cooked perfect. I want to do the seafood pasta next time. The reason we came was the giant chocolate cake, we didn’t have time to order or eat it so it looks like we will need to wait until NYC."

"Been here a few times during our Las Vegas trips. Since the group I normally go with is fine with any food is the only reason we go here, because for me as a vegetarian with a specific dietary requirement I can't have much apart from a pizza or/and maybe fries which is also average considering the price. Atmosphere is good. Service is okay. It is located within The Venetian. There is inside and outside sitting options. Outside sitting has a view of the strip."

"LAVO Party Brunch: Probably won't go back. Would rather rest during the day and get a table at a night club during the winter months. Tip 1: If you have a table, the host will hand you an envelope and quickly ask you to initial a specific box they mark with an X and sign at the bottom. They choose the box that says you're leaving a 20% tip. You can leave a different amount by choosing the adjacent box, they never tell you this. Tip 2: They have to-go boxes if you don't want to or can't finish your food. If your table is outside (i.e. terrace), you're out of the party; regardless of what others say. You still have access to the inside area and speakers play whatever the DJ is playing inside, but the atmosphere difference is literally night and day. The inside is a party just like any big day club in Vegas, the outside is just a regular brunch with a view of the strip. Chicken in the chicken & waffles is dry, pizzas are small for the price even for Vegas, the giant pancake is actually a fruit salad on a thin pancake soaked in alcohol (peaches, strawberries, blue berries, raspberries, banana). The mixed drinks are pretty good."
