    I overall love Lavo. The calamari was a little powdery that night but it was still great. And the Caesar salad was fresh and crunchy. Very rarely do they disappoint and they’re pretty much consistent. It was a great farewell dinner. I’ll definitely miss the restaurant.

    I’ve been to Lavo in Las Vegas a number of times, but this was my first time to the New York location. It was a nice place, food was delicious and service was good. Would definitely go back!

    We made a reservation the same day and got a time spot. The food was outstanding and the service was very good! We got the pappardelle bolognese and the Seafood Alfredo (which the kitchen was kind enough to update to a vodka sauce - delicious). We enjoyed our dinner so much we returned the next night as well. Thanks to Lavo for two wonderful meals. We will be back.

    We made a reservation with the intention of going to the disco. But the price was really high. I thought by having dinner at the restam the disco would be included in the experience. But it was not.
