Lago Las Vegas

Lago is on the main floor of the Bellagio Hotel & Casino, just steps from the conservatory. It is a five-minute walk from the Fountains of Bellagio, positioning the dining room directly against the resort’s most famous water display.

The restaurant serves contemporary and classic Italian cooking. It is dressier than the casual bistros found throughout the surrounding casinos, with the room running smart and elegant. While most restaurants along the strip hide their windows behind heavy curtains, Lago commits to the glass. It is a better choice than the neighboring spots in the hotel if you want to watch the fountain show without braving the crowded sidewalk outside. The view is the primary argument for booking here; you get a clear vantage point of the water while eating, which the other venues on this level cannot claim.
