We spent Valentine’s Day at Lano, and the vibe was perfect, music, candles, everything set the mood just right. The Romeo and Juliet wine pairing was amazing, and Sammy made it extra special for us. The food was decent, but the crudo and croquettes were definitely our faves.

We encountered a significant delay because the restaurant being overcrowded, and many people arriving late for their reservations. The food was decent, but the highlight of the evening was definitely the wine pairing and the sommelier's storytelling which really made our night! We are in the industry as well and we appreciate the way he treated us despite the delays! My fiancé and I had a fun night overall!
