by Sergio Buglione on For someone who went to Lavo in Las Vegas, don't expect to see the same type of restaurant in New York. Setting- Midtown financiers and lawyers afterwork hours. it's a classy tavern type of ambiance. I was very disappointed with the Tuna dish! First of all- raw tuna should never be warm. Appetizers- the meatball!! But if you seem to not make reservations at Lavo and the wait is too long, there's always Tao across the street!
by Kansinee A. on Nice decor - 2 stars. Unfortunately, everything else isn't all that great. First, this is San Francisco not Vegas! If I want to be pretentious and materialistic, I wouldn't be in SF to begin with. So, please drop the "guest list" crap. We all know that it's a total BS! Second, the dance floor is small with poor air ventilation. And last, if you're out and about with a bunch of your Asian crew, I think you're better off at a place where your business is welcome.
