Lavi Byob - Ardmore

Eating was excellent. the day of the mother was not disappointed. the place is rather small bc it was buffet style for motherday, we never knew who our server was. we had to ask random server to bring everything we needed. overall, eating was great. just a bar restaurant.

This was our second visit to Lavi. The first time we went we didn’t have a waitress come to our table to even offer us water for over 20 minutes. So we finally had to go talk to the hostess. However, all the food we ordered was very good. This time the service was bad in a different way. We felt rushed when the waitress cleared plates while some of us were still eating, and she also asked us about dessert before we were all finished with dinner. We were the last table in there and it was only about 9:45 and they started mopping the floors around us! They changed the menu too and there were a lot of unhealthy options. My fish was also overly spicy . My husband had a delicious fried tofu dish the first time we dined here, but this time the tofu entree was plain and bland. Our friend did seem to enjoy the fried chicken and waffles. Also this time they charged a corkage fee which didn’t exist the last time we came. In a nut shell, I don’t think we’ll be back here any time soon!

Good food, but had a long wait. It was a Saturday night during the dinner rush. Cramped space, which adds to the noise level. Price is slightly higher than you could find elsewhere, but it is also from scratch and farm to table, so this is to be expected.

The food was delicious and service was great. We loved everything and can’t wait to come back and try other dishes

The food was excellent but slow to arrive but that is what happens in a cook to order restaurant. Loved the corn bread waffle with the fried chicken. The hostess/waitress as very warm and friendly. We were surprised that we were the only ones in on a Wednesday. We are early eaters though. I will recommend to friends and family. I would very much like to see this neighborhood restaurant make it.
