We went for high tea. I was delighted to have found a spot like this in Dallas, other places charge $75+ for a tea tasting, but I have to say that Lavendou Bistro was just as delicious and just as great of an experience as anywhere else I have found. We went right before heading to watch the Nutcracker, so the Christmas decorations were a perfect fit! Looking around, I think the overall ambiance of the bistro would be great as well, but going during Christmas time was wonderful! The only reason I am giving 4 starts instead of 5 is because the service was a bit slow and our waiter only checked on us as they were walking by for other errands. We didn't feel like they were rude, but maybe too busy? Would definitely come back!

Delicious! Went for lunch and cannot wait to come back for date night! Great service and great tasting food. The profiteroles are SO good. One of the owners is from France and very nice! It was fairly busy for lunch time which was nice to see. Can't wait to go back!

Greatly enjoyed our experience here! Went for both an afternoon high tea and a fancy dinner with the wife and both were great experiences. The teas offered were tasty and the small snacks and plates were pair well with the tea. Overall great experience when paired with the attentive service and intimate atmosphere! Dinner was even fancier with a slightly more lively but still very intimate setting with AMAZING lobster bisque, french onion soup, and rack of lamb. The soufflé was also awesome. Great food, service, and atmosphere. Great spot for a nice romantic evening.

Love this place. Great experience with the High Tea. Servers are very attentive. Highly recommended for a afternoon tea session with families and friends

A friend brought me here for my birthday and it was wonderful! We decided to do high tea(must make reservations 24 hours in advance). It was a lovely experience. I wasn't sure if I would get full but I actually did. I didn't realize it was a full restaurant and next time I will plan to eat off the full menu. We got a glass of wine after the high tea (they have a large selection) Staff is attentive and I love the decor. I'm glad to have found this hidden gem and will be back! Add it to the love list

We just learned about this French Bistro. The food is authentic, the wait staff are amazing - attentive - really know the menu and the dishes...and spoke French! The wine menu is thorough and expansive. We sat out on the patio because it was such a beautiful evening. I recommend asking to sit in Jean Phillipe's section as you will have the most wonderful experience. The Tomato Basil soup is by far the best I have ever eaten! The small goat cheese salad sat us up for amazing dishes. The French bread is worth the dining experience alone...sorry - it is so amazing! Last point - Get the soufflé!

Afternoon tea was so much fun! My mom was so excited for this afternoon tea and I see why! It's a cute little place that offers tea and a regular lunch menu. The wait staff was exceptional-- explaining the tiers, offering to pour tea, etc. It was very reasonably priced in comparison. The first tier included fresh cucumber sandwiches, smoked chicken salad sandwiches, and a ham mousse sandwich. The cucumber sandwiches were so delicious and fresh!! The middle tier had scones (served with fresh jam and cream) and a chocolate bread. The top tier included pastries and desserts made by their pastry chef. The only tea offered was a house black tea, served with cream and sugar. I can't wait to go back the next chance I get!!

My father wanted to have a tea party. You'd like my father. He's a hoot. Also, have you priced tea parties in Dallas? There's a place right by my house and it's $66 per person. Lavendou is $35 for the exact same menu with a cuter environment. The location is in a strip mall--but do not let the detour you. Once you walk in, you are transported from Dallas to France. It is darling, a point possibly lost on my father, but not on the rest of our party. We had two pots of tea, finger sandwiches, scones, zucchini bread, and an assortment to desserts. It's more food than one person can eat. We had to have the remaining desserts and scones boxed to go. Service was good, especially since the placed was packed at 1 p.m. on a Saturday. They close at 2 p.m., but we were never rushed. Plenty of parking, bar, and traditional French menu available in addition to top-notch tea service.

November 3, 2018 Second visit - just as good as the first. Excellent mussels in semi thick white wine sauce - top 1 or 2 I've ever had. Had the sole with shrimp on top. Really nice. Did a "grandma" soufflé too. Really great. The owner even brought it over and prepped it for us - while saying hello and asking how everything was. Stellar of him. Only a couple of comments - the menus are little hard for non-French speaking Texans to understand. The beautiful very French woman server - where I liked sitting - wasn't able to provide a lot tasting note info on the entrees this time. The first time I came and asked her questions about 2 types of sauces - she couldn't find the words, but impressively - went to the kitchen and brought back samples for me to taste! I love this place and plan to come back a lot. Nice family feel to the staff. Hostess very nice too from the get-go.

Came here for High Tea with a friend a while back and absolutely loved it! The High Tea is served with English breakfast tea (other tea selections available upon request), finger sandwiches, mini pastry plate, tea breads, scones, cream, butter, and jam. Overall, everything tasted pretty good and we had a wonderful time. I especially enjoyed the scones (tastes so divine once you add the cream to it), and the tea breads. The pastries were delicious and from the finger sandwiches, I liked the chicken salad sandwich the most. All the staff were super friendly and accommodating. They also have plenty of parking.
