    First time dining at Lavender Bistro. Lovely spot! The outside dining has such great ambiance! The food is very good. We were given several recommendations to dine here and finally we gave it try. Everything was great but the service. First this is fine dining and the experience should be of leisure to enjoy. This is not a popular grill to turn over tables as fast as possible. Perhaps our waiter though very pleasant was in a hurry to end his shift. If that was the case turn the table to another server. It was crazy fast... which was not enjoyable.

    Great atmosphere. Great service. Never had to wait to reorder appetizers or drinks in the lounge. Dinner staff was excellent. Keeping up service without us even no that they were around. Great food, great cheer, and great cheer, great music.

    My wife ordered Rack of Lamb and she could hardly cut it. Very tough and not worth the effort.
