Lago

Lago is located right inside the Bellagio, and it’s definitely a nice dinner spot if you’re in Vegas. The ambience is really good, and the views are a big part of the experience. If you get the right spot on the patio, you can get a really nice view of the Strip and even the Bellagio fountains, which makes it even better. Another nice part is that the casino is right outside, so it’s easy to continue the fun after dinner. Personally, I think this place is much better for dinner than daytime. For food, we tried a few things and really enjoyed them. The Fritto Misto and Octopus from the antipasti were both really good. For contorni, the truffle fries were honestly perfect. We also tried the Margherita pizza, and that was perfect too. For the entrée, we had the Lobster Risotto, which was really good as well. Overall, it’s a great spot for a date night, especially if you want a nice Vegas dinner with a good vibe and view. Reservation recommended. Not sure if they entertain a walk in!

I had a lovely experience at Lago. The atmosphere is elegant and relaxing, with beautiful waterfront views that make the whole dining experience feel special. The food is well prepared and full of flavor, with a nice balance between classic and refined Italian dishes. I especially enjoyed how fresh and high-quality the ingredients tasted. The service was attentive and welcoming without feeling overbearing. It’s a perfect spot for a date night or a quiet dinner, and I would definitely come back again.

This review is solely based on the FOOD. Because everyone can see that the location and views are spectacular. But the cuisine, not so much! I ordered the Caesar salad, which came soggy and was mediocre at best. I also ordered the vegetarian lasagna, and it too was mediocre. You could tell the pasta was cooked al dente (which is how I like it) and the scarce amount of sauce tasted pretty fresh, but none of it stood out to me. My wife was in the mood for lobster all day, so she went with a plain spaghetti dish with a half lobster. She literally pulled out only a few small pieces of lobster leaving her yearning for more. She left almost all of the spaghetti because she said it was overbearing with tons of large pieces of garlic. Her dish alone was regrettably $100 just by itself. To say our meals were disappointing would be an understatement. Classic example of a restaurant that has great views with underwhelming food. In addition, the menu did not have a good assortment of dishes to choose from. The only memorable part of Lago was the view of the Fountains, while the food was the part we would gladly like to forget.

We came here for breakfast after failing to go to Sadelle's walk-in because the line was too long. Luckily at LAGO around 9 am there's no wait so the walk-in is rather easy. The place has a nice vibe; it's very clean. The service was a little bit on the slower side to our liking but people are usually not in a hurry when they're eating breakfast, right? I had the French toast, which was really good. I think my wife had the hash brown, plus salmon, plus avocado. The bacon they gave us on the side was actually one of the best. The food was pretty good. The staff were extremely friendly. No complaints. The vibe and the atmosphere is probably the best thing about this place. We were here for breakfast but I reckon that in the evening they will have all the windows up and you could see the water fountain shows from here. Pretty good spot overall, decently priced. I will recommend if you are trying to grab breakfast after 9:00 or lunch or dinner.
