Lavendou, a retreat into the French countryside - a place where life is savored as much as the food. Lavendou is thoroughly French, from the inviting decor to the gracious service and authentic cuisine. But don't expect it to be pretentious. Owner Pascal Cayet is dedicated to providing service that is friendly and efficient. And you will find Chef François Soyez's menu to be deliciously approachable. Serving the lighter fare of Southern France, Lavendou offers many items to tempt your taste buds.

Tasty, classically prepared French cuisine with excellent service and customer first treatment. Dishes were outstanding in quality, portions, sides and sauces. Even the pomme frites were on a different and higher level than your average french fry. It's always a special treat to dine here, whether a casual lunch or a special dinner. It's also a wonderful pleasure to have the same friendly, consistent and helpful staff, from Bernard to Raphael to Sebastian and Pascal.

Lavendou is one of the best restaurants in the Dallas area, and one of the most overlooked. It serves classes rustic French food of the best quality. We strongly recommend the duck, the veal, the salmon and more.
