New favorite Italian restaurant in the Philly area. Definitely rivals all Italian restaurants in center city. The dishes are playful and memorable. So obsessed with the gnoccho fritto we ordered them twice. Don’t skip the soft serve for dessert!!!The service was just perfect- shoutout to Tommy the bartender! Can’t wait to return to Philly so I can go back to this gem of a restaurant!!!!!

The creme de la creme of dining . It’s a trifecta of service , quality and creative healthy food . A force that’s rare to achieve . Pricey but worth it . Enjoy ! My only gripe is I wish there were a few more options and new stuff cause everything is a hit on menu just want more hits to choose upon.

My wife and I recently went on a double date to Lark and had a beyond fantastic outing. Every part of our evening was memorable....the pre dinner cocktails in the lounge - which had a vibe all to it's own-the knowledgable server who made us feel accomodated & comfortable with the menu, the nascar-speed table clearing and full care from various staff (yet never once feeling rushed) and I haven't even talked about the food yet! It was abundantly clear that is was more than just a meal, it was an experience and our table was important; and for that we were most appreciative. I am the im house chef for the family and cook 6-7 nights a week - I left Lark feeling invigorated and inspired! Our 4 person crew split 5 of the small plates, 4 of the pastas and 2 of the main entrees & 1 dessert....was hard pressed to not embarrass my wife by running my fingers through all the sauces once we destroyed every ounce of food brought before us. I used a spoon instead :). Throughout the night, there were a lot of familiar flavors yet somehow they were colored in a totally different light. I felt like a small child taking new stimuli in and feeling awe, again, we had an experience. I cannot say enough about LARK and what Chef Nick & company are doing down in Bala. I am already plotting my next excuse to get back there. This restaurant has etched a special place in my heart.Vegetarian options: My wife is Pesca and was able to have a full meal with zero problems.

Great space for a party/event. Had the pleasure of photographing a bar mitzvah and The Lark's staff was fantastic! It's also a very interesting space to photograph. Love the outdoor spaces! Kara Raudenbush

Fortunate to secure a last-minute Saturday night reservation, I was treated to a culinary adventure at this Mediterranean-inspired gem. Although the menu initially didn't follow the typical Mediterranean offerings, each dish pleasantly surprised with a delicious and unique fusion, offering a subtle hint of Mediterranean flavors.The exceptional service elevated the experience; our waiter's professionalism, friendliness, and genuine warmth made our first visit truly special. The entire staff displayed meticulous attention to detail, swiftly addressing any stray food scraps on the table.Nestled on the top floor, this spacious restaurant has a perfect ambiance for a romantic date night or any special occasion. I definitely recommend this place to anyone seeking a delightful culinary experience.

We had a wonderful dinner at Lark. The food was delicious and beautifully served, the cocktails were excellent, and the service was exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant for a nice night out. It was so good but not at all pretentious or stuffy. It had a lively atmosphere and is an interesting space.Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating to my need for food to be gluten free

We hosted our holiday party at Lark for the second year in a row and had such a wonderful experience! Each year we've had 20 - 30 people and have been situated in the Library, a private space that is perfect for our group.The ambience and service are great. We had a cocktail hour with passed hors d'oeuvres, followed by a sit-down dinner and then mingled over desert.I've been to Lark a number of times for dinner in the main dining room, and can attest the entrees are indeed spectacular. Entrees at our holiday party were likewise amazing, as expected.Where Lark really knocked it out of the park -- and this is particularly important for our holiday party where it wasn't just about a sit-down dinner -- was the cocktail hour. We had an open bar and the cocktails were exquisite. Combine that with loads of different amazing hors d'oeuvres (we happened to choose 9) including lobster toast, oysters, butternut squash soup shooters, lamb lollipops and a handful of others that just kept on coming, and it had us on our way to a very memorable evening.The consensus view from our group of +/- 25 was "loved it and can't wait until next year". It's usually tough to please everyone... but in this case, Lark delivered in a big way.

Spent 2023 New Year's Eve at Lark. The New Year's Eve 5 Course dinner was a food experience of incredible flavor, character and could only be described as a well curated masterpiece of graduating culinary creativy with each of the 5 course offering. Well done Lark, looking forward to being there again on New Year's Eve 2024. The atmosphere is laid back, a bit swanky but still very casual and very inviting for all. Job well done Lark.
