LAVO Restaurant and Nightclub at the Palazzo Las Vegas

The pioneering team responsible for the creation of the mega successful Tao Las Vegas is proud to announce LAVO,  the most recent addition of the Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino in Las Vegas set to open next August, 2008. Marc Packer, Rich Wolf, Jason Strauss and Noah Tepperberg are all part of The Team, the group that created the highly successful Tao Las Vegas at the Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino, which quickly became one of the most attractive gastronomic and nightlife destinations in Las Vegas.

Lavo was designed and conceived by AvroKo, and integrated design and concept firm that has developed architectural environments and design concepts for hotel groups including the Starwood and for restaurants such as the Stanton Social and Public in New York and Social House and Company in Las Vegas.

The restaurant and nightclub gets its name from the Latin for “to clean”, which is a concept that clearly matches the decoration inspired upon the Roman bathhouses. Lavo’s decoration was carefully selected and crafted to provide an authentic Mediterranean ambience surrounded with shabby tile walls and water splashed plaster, wooden and low chandeliers, leather chairs and tables, carves stone walls and Turkish water basins.

Lavo’s will feature a 180 seat main dining room, a 20 seat private dining room and 100 seats on the outdoor patio facing the magnificent Las Vegas Strip. Lavo’s menu was selected and crafted by Chef Ludo Lefebvre and his team of veteran and skilled chefs will take guests to a gastronomic expedition that include traditional and modern Mediterranean recipes from countries such as Spain, Greece, France and Italy. With years of experience in classic French cuisine, Chef Lefebvre comes to Las Vegas with the distinction of being the only chef in L.A that has earned the celebrated Mobil Travel Guide Five Star award at two different restaurants; L'Orangerie and Bastide.

The 4500 square Las Vegas nightclub features vaulted glazed tile arches opening to a vaulted ceiling that covers the dance floor. Visitors can also enjoy an exclusive, lofty VIP area with posh banquettes, imprinted leather walls and mirrored mosaic tile alcoves. The nightclub features 40 bottle service tables, high-tech audio visual systems and the music and exclusive mixers of DJs Vice, Reach, Galleano and Berrie. The nightclub will be open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 pm to 5:00 am.
