    Table was too small. Asked for a bigger table and they said it was all reserved. Felt a bit crammed on the table we were sitting at. Especially because we had ordered a lot of food.

    This was our first reservation for brunch but we’ve had dinners here before. Big difference in terms of service attentiveness and food preparation. Took a while to get drinks - coffee and bar drink, even water refills. Lobster pasta was way too salty. Nice of server to remove from the bill. Compared to dinner, brunch service was slow and honestly sloppy. Not sure I will come back for brunch - nice restaurant setting for brunch but not a pleasant experience

    LAVO is one of the best restaurants you can dine at. It is truly the only place where I can say price matches what they have to offer. It is the only place in LA that is consistently good. Spicy calbrese pizza 12/10. Lobster pasta 12/10. Steak 12/10. Can not get enough! MUST VISIT

    Food and atmosphere was incredible. Service was not up to expectation and plates arrived all at one time instead of being coursed. Felt rushed.
