We went at brunch and Krissy was such an excellent server. The food was amazing and the ambiance was beautiful and calm as usual. It got noisier toward 11am because there were some larger parties coming in and the birthday mimosas were flowing. I prefer the quieter time so I may go earlier or on a weekday next time. But it was beautiful and the music was excellent. The food was good, as usual. But My fave was how well we were treated by all the staff. 10/10 ❤️

Our experience at Lons on Saturday night at 5:45 could not have been more perfect. It was the most beautiful evening and a guitar guitarist was playing background music. The patio was lovely. My husband ordered the lamb and it was fabulous. I ordered the pork ribeye and it was nothing special. We also ordered the espresso crème brûlée that was tasty . Overall I think it’s the vibe of lawns that makes it so special. Our group talked about coming back during the fall winter months to have the experience of sitting inside by the fire is a place. You definitely want to go to seasonally for a very special evening with friends.

Everything was great except Valet ruined the dining experience at the end. Our vehicle (and others) had the windows rolled down. We had tinted the vehicle earlier in the day and needed to keep the windows shut for a week to cure it, so we'll end up needing to get it fixed. Not sure why valet would roll down the windows of the cars, including parked ones sitting there for hours. It's a theft hazard and allows bugs inside.

Honestly just an absolute delight. Wonderful service. We ate on the patio. Gorgeous. They put a napkin under my wife’s purse so it didn’t have to be on the ground. Lovely music. Perfect volume. Food was great. Sommelier to help with wine. If the weather is good, no better place to have a relaxing meal. No pressure from the staff. Lighting is incredible.
