| About: | For almost twenty years Lavandou has remained a charming French restaurant in Washington D.C.'s Cleveland Park neighborhood. Tucked in amongst unique storefronts on Connecticut Avenue, Lavandou's cozy glow and relaxed atmosphere lures its guests inside where they can enjoy fine southern French cuisine. The cuisine at Lavandou is based on the essence and smells of Provence. This region along the French Riviera is famous for its rustic roots and uses only the most natural ingredients. Many of our dishes are created with tomatoes, roasted red peppers, eggplants and olives and are seasoned with fragrant garlic, rosemary, thyme and basil. These flavorful traditional dishes, prepared at length and with healthy, fresh ingredients are truly reflective of the Mediterranean style of "savior vivre." In the heart of Cleveland Park, Lavandou is conveniently located across from the Uptown Theater and close to the Cleveland Park (red line) metro stop. |

User Rating: 1 out of 5 starsI made reservations for my birthday w/ the owner, for 15 ppl last weekend. She agreed to waive the cake fee if we ordered appetizers. Our party size grew a few hours prior, which was no problem. Shortly after placing our orders, a manager, Phillipe, took me aside to inform me a $50 cake fee would still be imposed b/c not enough appetizers were orderd. I pointed out all the extra entrees/drinks ordered (costing much more than a few extra $9 appetizers), but he refused to allow any singing/cake w/o charging. Everyone was appalled & the b-day dinner was ruined. Anyone seeking business in today's economy should know upsetting 18 ppl (and everyone they know) isn't worth the hundreds in lost revenue over a birthday cake. Good riddance Lavandou!

I am so tired of these new "in" restaurants, I decided to take my wife to Lavandou.
What an amazing dinner! Food was excellent and service just perfect, even friendly. We both enjoyed our night tremendously -
