    Have been to LAVO more than 5 times now, with that being said I know how the service normally is. Our server was way below standard and expectation. The server assistant Solomon is the only reason I’m giving the service such a high rating. He really turned our night around. He made sure to check in on us and was having great conversation the entire dinner which we really appreciated. We were just three celebrating my birthday and we all are big foodies. The food as always was incredible. We got the beef carpaccio, burrata, calamari, yellowtail tartar and the crudo as appetizers which were all amazing. I also know that they normally bring out a little dish “from the chef” with some vegetables and a delicious olive oil which I saw other tables get and we did not which I was disappointed since I know how fantastic that olive oil is- we even bought some the last time we were in! Entrees we all shared- the ribeye, filet, vodka pasta and the tortilini which were all phenomenal! The steaks are paired with grilled garlic cloves, tomatoes and lemon which really adds to the dishes. The pastas were delicious as always! Thank you to Solomon for helping make our night special!

    Fresh and delicious Italian food. I am still dreaming about the Verde Salad, so light yet so good. Next we shared Penne Alla Vodka, the most tender filet that was cooked perfectly to my medium well and finished with the tiramisu. All dishes were amazing. Highly recommend. Amazing service, great atmosphere and food was perfection. We were visiting from Chicago and made for a perfect date night!

    The vibes for endless brunch on Sundays are fantastic! But the food… mid to say the least. This is a great spot for drinks w/friends but I can’t say the food is that good.

    I came here with my girlfriend for a date night, and while the food was honestly really good and reasonably priced for the quality and good quantity, the service completely ruined the vibe. From the moment we pulled up, the valet was rude, the host didn’t greet us properly, and our waiter made us feel super uncomfortable. He kept pointing out prices before we even ordered, which felt passive-aggressive and unnecessary — like we weren’t expected to afford anything. It was supposed to be a special night out, but the whole time we felt like we didn’t belong there. Definitely won’t be coming back, no matter how good the food was.

    Loved our night at Lavo! Took my wife and teenage boys and it was great. Gladys was so friendly, outgoing and professional. Pizza and pasta and chicken parm were all great. Very cool place but still family friendly. Probably our favorite dinner in a week of travel to SF and LA, mostly because of the service from Gladys and the other servers, bus boys and food runners, but also the quality of the food

    The reception team is always amazing! The food is great; love the Penne, my steak was cooked perfectly, oysters were fresh! Oh, the tartare is delicious. Quite honestly—there isn't a thing you can go wrong with on the menu. Conner was such a great server! While Rachel wasn't my server this time, she made a point to come by and spread her warm cheer. Truly a magnificent team with such warmth and hospitality! Salim was equally amazing! I'll be back soon.. Cheers!!
