Restaurants near Grand Canal Shoppes

We were at the Wynn, and most restaurants there were telling us a 3+ hour wait for even the most casual eateries.... We promptly left, went on OpenTable and within 10 minutes booked a reservation and power walked to LAVO. Absolutely the better outcome! Cool ambience, no judgement, a DJ, great staff from the host, to waitress, to cocktail and dessert runners. Highly recommend! We loved every second. Pricing was fair for Vegas and the food portions were great. Food tasted excellent too! I'm so happy we ended up here. If I remembered names I would thank all of you for the experience! If you've ever worked in the hospitality industry, this restaurant runs like a well oiled machine. I thoroughly enjoyed watching everyone thrive and promptly get everything ready for the next guest. It was so impressive! For 2 people it was $166, we had 2 entrees, an appetizer, 1 cocktail, 2 desserts, and a shot of espresso. Also came with complimentary focaccia and veggies. Will definitely go again!

We had a lovely time dining at Smith & Wollensky, it was everything you wanted out of steakhouse dinner. Our server Matty was great, and gave all the right recommendations. You can’t go wrong with the Old Fashioned or a GOOD dirty martini. My filet Oscar style was perfect. One of the best I have had in a long time. My husband got the seabass and it was also done perfectly. Nice little crust on the fish. We also had the Wollensky salad. Delicious with a chef’s kiss. We will be back!

Our server and his team were on top of everything. The food was excellent and the wine selection extensive. If you’re looking for a high end dinner keep Delmonico Steakhouse on your list of options. The only thing I felt was missing was a decadent dark chocolate option for dessert. The creme brûlée and cookies and cream cheesecake were delicious! I prefer a dark chocolate option when finishing off a bottle of Cabernet. ;)

Excellent triple pork fried rice and spicy lobster and crab sushi (spring mountain rolls) ? Can’t remember the name just remember they were delicious, fresh and filling!! Had a drink that didn’t like mono sour not a good substitute for spicy margarita and that was my fault. Someone else might like it just too sour for me. Next time I’ll try the Tao tini Ang the lobster pad Thai. Restaurant smelled amazing with garlic and spices hitting you as they served everyone around us at when our food arrived my goodness…AMAZING!!!! We will definitely be back!

Excellent dining experience overall. The water show outside is a fun experience!
