Brick Oven Salmon: The house cooks it medium to medium rare and it's served with a creamy lemon butter sauce and a side of julienne style zucchini. It was seasoned pretty well and was very filling. The lunch portion was enough to leave you with leftovers.
8oz Filet: Again the house prepares it medium, which for a steak can be closer to medium rare, drizzled with a dark peppercorn sauce. It was pretty tender and the thin sauce made the steak seem to be even juicer than it would be if it were doused in a thick A1. During restaurant week it was served with the truffle parmesan fries. Fries aren't my favorite accompaniment with steak, but the truffle flavor was nice with the steak.
Margherita Pizza: Very tasty. It was served as an appetizer so it was a bit much to eat with the warm bread that was served. It was almost like double pizza. Nonetheless, it was very good with just enough cheese and basil. (no photo)
Oreo Zeppoles: These are double stuffed fried oreos served with a tiny malted vanilla milkshake. I think the title speaks for itself and pretty much explains the true meaning of DESSERT!
There isn't one bad thing I could say about this place. The service is excellent, the food has yet to fail me and their nightlife (featured DJ's) is quite the midtown trend! If you admire quality food done right, don't hesitate to try Lavo....and please invite me!!!!
