    walking into Lavender is spectacular, the lights the trees on the patio the lavender napkins etc. make a great first impression. It just gets better from there, the service is impeccable the food was very very good. Everything we tried left us in food heaven. We didn’t have a cocktail but the wine list was awesome. I would highly recommend Lavender.

    The Ambience was exceptional. The Pork chop and the halibut specials were both overdone. I spoke to the owner( Nickolas) and he said they will work on it. Probably not going back.

    All four entrees were a disappointment . The steak had to be returned as it came too rare. The sole came with a vegetable that the customer was allergic too . Had to be taken away and returned to the table . The other two had chicken that they just pushed around on their plate. Tasteless and boring . The restaurant had heaters for the outside which half the table was warm and the other half the customers were cold ! This is usually a restaurant we return to regularly! Will not be returning this season.

    Pork chop came out cold and dry, they reheated it and brought it back to me. Probably won’t be going back.

    We had a wonderful meal and service was impeccable. We were celebrating my mother’s 84th birthday and we picked the right spot. The patio is so charming with all of the trees, twinkling lights, and the music. Great place for special occasions.
