Nothing sophisticated or welcoming about the place. Before you even situate yourself at the empty bar (5pm), the bar tenders yell \"i'll need an id and credit card\". An ID and credit card in order to place an order for an appetizer at the empty bar because we were told to WAIT A WHILE for someone to come and seat us in the EMPTY dining room! ?! No such thing as a \"good evening\" or \"welcome\" - to any patron that followed us. Trying to get the wait staff to ask the kitchen for fettucci instead of spaghetti for our carbonara dish was nearly impossible. When ordering iced tea with our dinner (which actually turned out to be tasteless filthy-looking water), the wait staff told us \"oh, and we charge $4 for refills of the iced tea\". No one cared to ask if our food was prepared to our liking, no interaction what so ever. The food was average and the dining area is cramped for space. We will not be returning to Lavo. We prefer the personality, value, quality and consistency of food that WYNN AND ENCORE restaurants have to offer. Upon leaving we asked the hostess for a comment card whereby she replied \"we don't use comment cards\". That pretty much put the nail in the coffin for them. Yelp was the next best thing."^^ .
