This is in a cute little house with open ceiling and beams. Very small in intimate. Food is small plates and fun for your mouth! Very good meal, wait staff is helpful and informed.

The staff was fairly pleasant, but I the more I try to put this into words the less praise I can give them. They were attentive (for the hour and a half it took to get our food), but just a little off. When my friend asked what type of rum they had she was told "Barcardi" as if that... More

We visited our daughter and boyfriend and trout this would be a Greg experience. The atmosphere was appealing but that was it. We have had foie gras at numerous places and this was the worse. No wonder people have a bad opinion of fore gras. The serving size are extremely small and on the high side for price. Many options... More

The portion sizes are small, but you could not ask for better tastes and atmosphere. In typical Seattle fashion, it's more expensive than it should be, but it isn't out of step with other great restaurants in Seattle. The difference is the atmosphere, dark tones with candlelight. Worth your time.

We liked the room, service was great and you could tell immediately this was a kitchen with a fine ability to construct balanced and tasty dishes of considerable complexity. What we both found was, that while excellent and admirable, there was something just a little lacking. A lot of what we ate was very precise and clever, but not overly... More

We love this sweet dining space and it's delicious food. Amazing wait staff that anticipate the diners needs and enhance the overall experience. A rare find in the vastly changing world of restaurants in Seattle.

A friend who works here has been telling me about this place for a very long time and I finally decided to check it out. Why did I wait so long......? Absolutely love the concept....2 to 3 dishes per customer with many great choices. I love the layout of the place....pretty simple the meandering half circle of sheers down the... More

Lark has figured out that it can charge entree prices for 3 bites of fish in the "small plates" format. The flavors are fine, though not wonderful, and it is easy to leave hungry with a big tab. The decor is pretty, but the skimpiness of the food makes this a less than stellar choice.

Yes, it was expensive, but oh, so good. We tried about seven different dishes for dinner and all were exquisite. Everything was so original and delicious....what a taste treat and palate delight. It's a tapas sort of place where you order various small dishes and ideally, share them with one or two other guests. We tried the corn soup, the... More

Cute restaurant, fun neighborhood, and the food is absolutely amazing. Small plates with a lot of interesting variety and dessert was worth saving room for!
