    Lavender was a wonderful experience. From the time we were seated through the point in time that we finished our coffee, we enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommended!

    Our first time to Lavender’s, and we throughly enjoyed our evening experience. We were greeted by managers as we entered, took us to the patio and thanked us for being there, that’s a surprise these days! Great service by all the staff, nice live music and the atmosphere was comfortable. Nice menu, served as we requested and didn’t feel rushed. It was a birthday dinner for my wife and they had a nice card and little gift at our table. We plan to make Lavender’s part of our ‘rotation’ for dinner spots……

    Food and atmosphere can’t be beat in the La Quinta area. Drinks were also fabulous with an extensive wine menu!

    We went on Christmas for dinner. Everything was very good. Eating outside in the courtyard was nice. The live music entertainment was just okay. Being from out of town, we were happy to have a reservation at a nice restaurant for the holiday dinner. Maybe the next time we're in La Quinta, we'll make a dinner reservation on a regular night to try their regular menu.

    Our foursome had a lovely Christmas evening dinner on the patio. A set dinner menu with several options for starters, entrees and desserts. All were tasty, delicious and perfectly prepared and presented. Service was very good despite the restaurant being very busy with three seatings for dinner. Sebastian our server was excellent being efficient, personable and attentive. Michelle and Nicholas and the father-son owners, are outstanding long-term restauranteurs.
