    The four or us enjoyed a great and entertaining French-experience meal celebrating my wife's 70th birthday which included a complementary dessert.

    The food is always excellent - especially the escargot. In the French style, service is a little slow, but it was slower than normal last night.

    Lavendou is always wonderful. The staff from waiters to those filling water glasses, are very attentive making sure everyone is taken care of. The menu offers many, delicious choices, and the wine list is extensive from France to California. Lavendou is always very busy on weekends so reservations are needed.

    Outstanding service. Delicious Alsatian tarte. Tournedos with Pomme Frites were done perfectly. The Grand Marnier Soufflé is not to be missed! Lavendou is a neighborhood gem!

    The food and service are always great here. The very best escargot in all of Texas. The Bronzino and entrecôte of beef were both amazing. Highly recommend as always.
