text: As part of our bestofvegascom deal we had access to both TAO and LAVO nightclubs I did not know that both were related seeing as each have a different ethnic menu After attending TAO on a Thursday night I expected LAVO to be just as magnificent nnSince we had our wristbands from the previous night the security directed us to the shorter line and we were in within minutes Unlike TAO LAVO had a much shorter line suggesting that we were dealing with a much smaller night club When we entered we had to make our way to the top floor seeing as how the first floor was the restaurant and a single bar When we arrived upstairs the music was bumping loud and the dance floor packed We struggled to make our way onto the dance floor dancing for a small amount of time before becoming claustrophobic The security guards essentially herd people like cattle from the entrance in hopes of keeping it clear to no avail nnWe finally made our way to the bar which covered one whole area and from this single bar with no more than three bartenders everyone purchased their drinks here Again they seemed overwhelmed and undermanned There was no real place to sit on the too floor and it was just two crowded with my personal space being violated Much less satisfying than TAO was Seeing as how it was just too crowded and we needed to rest our feet me and my girlfriend made our way to the lower level to find a seat I ordered a Margarita which was great as we sat there and relaxed on the couch nWe noticed that LAVO close at AM that day as they did not allow my girl to come back after going outside to talk to her friends I chugged my drink and left saddened by LAVOs short comings If your within the LAVO The Pallazo area you should check it out otherwise go to TAO for a much better experience that does not end at AM
