Very cozy nice place, excellent service and ambience, delicious flatiron steak. Maybe come up with a couple more cocktails? Only gin based drink is summery gin and tonic, on rocks… feels like a couple more would be amazing!

One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle, tucked away on a street corner in the Kimpton Hotel. Classily little spot, excellent (and authentic) Italian fare, from the appetizers to the desserts and liquors. Lovely spot, great food, exceptional service, and manager attentive to every detail, this is a a delightful experience.

this was our second time at Lark and the first time we didnt do the Pre Fixe menu. It was a quiet night but Ava took good care of us and we had a good meal, as expected in this scion of the seattle dining scene. I thought the entrees were a bit overpriced given the size of the portions, but otherwise we were very happy.
