We so enjoyed our visit! The staff was amazing, Thank You! When we arrived we were seated immediately in the most beautiful fairy like garden.a wonderful all round experience!

Excellent beet saled excellent forgot where you are we had Chilean sea bass also excellent pricey so be prepared

Excellent on all fronts! Atmosphere is lovely,the patio just screams " Sit, eat, drink, enjoy the day". The service was five star as was the food. I had the duck, delish! Right Brain had the salmon. My duck was cooked to perfection, and I AM picky with duck. The salmon was equally perfect and I actually thought hubs would pass out! Might have been his glorious martini. My mocktail was a take on a Mojito, gotta replicate this at home! Dress everything from dress casual to show your stuff, not a cel phone in sight too! We know you'll love this very special place!

Reservations are a must. Do yourself a favor and plan ahead. We sat outside on a beautiful evening and enjoyed the light breezes and the musician playing classic rock songs. Great ambience. We started with the PEI mussels for N appetizer, which was the dinner portion. Magnificent flavors and hearty mussels in every shell. The broth was flavorful and had a tasty white wine aroma. Salads were next, which were not average - but salads are salads. Ten wedge was delicious, a bit much dressing for me, but overall good. My wife had the poached Anjou pear salad, which was tasty. For dinner I had the rack of lamb, while my wife had the filet. Both expertly cooked and plated. Fresh flavors and easily to cut and enjoy. Overall a delicious dinner and the servers were on top of their game. Thank you for being so pleasant and such a delicious experience.

They don't need my review. This place is great. Like YEARS of consistency--- Food. Service. Ambiance. Entertainment. Come here if you have the opportunity. See my pics of food. I found extremely exceptional is from the hostesses to the person pouring the water to the manager walking around to check on you. Everything here was stellar. This is why this place gets five stars. Ayla the server was AMAZING!!

What a gorgeous and fun spot! Our family members knew about this place and we were happy to give it a try. We started with drinks that included martinis and margaritas. We immediately knew we made a mistake when we tried the drinks, but our server was gracious and didn't hesitate to take them back and bring us new drinks. We ordered 1942 on the rocks and the server brought us two glasses each through dinner; so kind and generous. Our dinners were delicious that started with oysters, short rib, lamb and fish. Everything was tasty, service was wonderful and the atmosphere romantic. Recommend!

Easily one of my favorite restaurants in the desert. I have been many times for many dinners, but stopped in most recently for Christmas dinner. What makes this place special is the beautiful ambience. You're able to sit under the trees and in a homely environment. It feels as if you are eating at someone's house, but professionally done. The food is also consistently good and they always have a lot of great options on the menu. They have a very large parking lot attached, otherwise you can choose to do valet right out front. They offer indoor and outdoor seating, but most people choose to sit in the heated patio under the trees, which is what we did for our dinner. Our server was very polite and very attentive, even though it was extremely busy for Christmas service. They had live music playing, which was a really nice touch for dinner. For Christmas dinner it was a prefix menu with a few choices of each of the three courses. I started off with the Lobster Ravioli which I've had a few times and it was very good. I chose the Cabernet-Braised Short Ribs for my entrée and thought it was fantastic. The portion size is very large and I loved the crispy onions. Others at our table ordered the turkey dinner, which honestly was the best choice because it was some of the best turkey I've ever had. Finally for my dessert I chose the Peach Cobbler and was very satisfied. They did not do small sized portions, which was a nice surprise. I have been to Lavender many times in the past and will continue to be back many times in the future. I would recommend to anyone looking for a special dinner.

Wow what a surprise! Four of us ate in the bar for the first time and drinks are only $8 between 4 and 5 o'clock and they are really good pours. Then they have a bar menu all night or you can also order from the main menu. It's still not cheap but it's excellent. I think better than the dinner we had here last time. The steak with fries, raviolis, and desserts were our favorites from the dishes we ordered. Of course the atmosphere is not nearly as nice as outside but who cares unless it's a romantic special occasion or maybe you are a snowbird who loves the warm outdoors. We are definitely coming back for the bar experience.
