Among the experiences lined along Marina Bay Sands’ iconic 57th level deck lies Lavo Italian Restaurant. Luxurious, moody, and ever bustling, Lavo makes full use of its panorama of the city skyline to paint a dramatic backdrop for its all-inclusive dining experience, which features a lounge and bar programme. Lavo’s menu is uncompromising and hearty, populated by dishes like The Meatball and the more delicate charred octopus. The former is a hefty one-pound stunner of wagyu, veal, and Italian sausage topped with airy whipped ricotta; while the latter features tender, fatty octopus tempered by the sharpness of endive and marinated fennel. Be sure not to miss the pastas on the menu—the delightfully moreish mafaldine seafood alfredo is sure to please with its rich seafood notes and perfectly al dente noodles. Lavo’s impeccable service is also pleasantly personable, melding with its comforting fare to make for a stellar dining experience.
