    Most amazing meal and service in a beautiful setting. Our server went out of her way to accommodate our adult granddaughter who has several allergies. Lobster tail was best ever. Duck was amazing as was the flatiron steak. Six extremely satisfied customers. We can’t wait to go back

    Typically I would give this place a five star. For the first time I received a dish that was not tasty. The fish was dry and the dish was cold. The waiter was fine but not very interested in excellent service which I have come to expect while dining here. I will be back because it could have just been “one of those nights” where things were off.

    It was our third visit to Lavender and as expected the ambience and service staff were outstanding. Most meals were fine..the short ribs were a little dry but tasty, but the mussels were such a disappointment. The broth tasted like tepid unseasoned broth. We brought this to the waiters attention and he did not charge us for the mussels. It must have been the head chefs day off!

    Ambiance is stunning outside with all the lighted trees. I ordered the beet salad, which was excellent, and the baked chicken. Blah and dry. Asked for more gravy. Brocollini tough. Hubby ordered sole. Ok but nothing special for the $. Maybe there is something they are known for but we missed it.

    Our waiter Steve was subpar. We waited for 45 minutes before he asked us our menu choices or even if we wanted an appetizer. We’ve already gone through two baskets of bread. The lobster ravioli tasted like it was in tomato soup. And pass on the shrimp Louie salad, it is definitely not worth it. Only two out of six people had wine, and none of the other wine glasses were ever cleared along with none of the extra plates.
