Restaurant:\nI DID NOT have a good experience at all. I went there on a saturday night after watching Phantom of the Opera. The waiter did not seem to have time for us. He didn't bring the bread as promised. The runners, and waiter didn't have enough time to refill our water glasses. I ordered spaghetti, and didn't expect it to be \"el dente\". I don't like el dente. It should have at least stated that on the menu, unless by default higher end restaurants only serves el dente, then it's my fault for not knowing. I did my part to make it a perfect night for my girl friend and chose Lavo restaurant expecting them to do their part to keep it perfect. \n\nI still didn't get my freakin bread after we almost finished our dinner. I see other tables received their bread before or with their entrees. For some, their bread basket might be late late, but at least the bread came for them LOL. Basically, everyone else got theirs. So what did I do? I asked for the bread, and got it 10 minutes later, after I had one bite left with my dinner. Instead of eating it, I just left it sitting there untouched. One of the runner guys asked if I wanted the bread to go, and I just dogged him. I wanted that waiter to know that he fucked up, he wasn't paying attention, and he should learn not to redirect blame to others who are not directly responsible for his table. And to make him and his food runners do the job that they're supposed to do and provide the complimentary bread as they should to all their patrons.\n\nI wouldn't have mind if the waiter acknowledged his oversight. I would have dropped the whole bread ordeal. But he acted dumb, \"oh you didn't get it yet. But I told them to bring it out\". Yes, we didn't get it. Had you paid attention you would have noticed that a long time ago when you walked past our table a few times before our entr\u00e9es came out.\n\nI used to wait tables at a high end Japanese restaurant, and that line was complete BS.\n\nOh, the Chicken ravioli wasn't bad.\n\nNightclub:\nSucked.\n\nI should have stuck with my original plan to dine at Tao restaurant and attend Tao nightclub. But I've been there many times already and thus, I wanted to try out Lavo. Big Mistake.\n\nHowever, the Palazzo is still one of my favorite hotels to stay at. I'll just never dine or attend Lavo Restaurant/Nightclub again.
