    Perfect outdoor ambiance, and our server was outstanding. Everything was wonderful, except the steak was tough and fibrous.

    The ambiance at Lavender Bistro is unbeatable. Relaxing atmosphere on the patio with plenty of heaters and lovely live music. The food was delicious. We had ribs and salmon and ate every bite. The service was good except I can not tell you who our waiter was as he did not introduce himself

    Love this place!!! Dining on the patio is an absolute must. The food is always perfect from start to finish and the wait staff make you feel like you are the only ones they are taking care of, even at full capacity. When other restaurants sacrifice quality on a holiday, the Bistro maintains exceptional service and delicious offerings. Go and take your special people there. No regrets!

    What a beautiful surprise!! We had no idea of this gem right in our own backyard! We’re new to LaQuinta, but now have a favorite new place! Caesar salad and goat cheese salad were incredible. Steak was fabulous and we even splurged with desert. Service was impeccable. You won’t be disappointed.

    I’ve been to lavender bistro several times and each time the food and service has been outstanding. When I visited last week the service was just okay. I ordered the short ribs..they were dry. Hard to chew and at time hard to swallow. My friend got the salmon..it was very good.

    A charming restaurant with great food and service. We enjoy eating here when visiting friends in the area. The lobster ravioli is my favorite, although there are several good entree choices. A good selection of salads also and some very tempting desserts. The service is always fantastic and there is live music. Well worth a visit for great food and a great time.
