Lavandou is a charming French restaurant in Washington D.C.’s Cleveland Park neighborhood. Tucked in amongst unique storefronts on Connecticut Avenue, Lavandou's cozy glow lures its guests inside where they can enjoy authentic provençal cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere. The cuisine at Lavandou is based on the essences of Provence. This region on the French Riviera is famous for its rustic cooking and uses only the most natural ingredients. Many of our dishes are created with farm-fresh favorites such as heirloom tomatoes, roasted peppers, eggplants and olives and are seasoned with fragrant garlic, rosemary, and thyme. These flavorful traditional dishes, prepared at length and with healthy, fresh ingredients are truly reflective of the Mediterranean style of “savior vivre.”
