Pretty fancy place I went for valentines day. Was a great experience with some food I've never had. Personally everything was top notch and was a little saddened to find out they change their menu often so there won't always be the same options next time you go. The popcorn they served for snacking was insanely good and they sell to go bags of it for like 5$ Overall a little pricey but you definitely get what you pay for. Service was great and was able to work with a dietary restriction of lactose intolerance for my date. See pictures of everything if your curious ? Was about 170$ out the door with tip and no desert so keep that in mind before going.
Good restaurant. The couple of items we ordered, roasted Brussel sprouts and a arugula salad, were excellent, but were the only options for my vegan daughter. I did comment to our server about the lack of any vegan entrees on the menu, which was surprising in a modern, hip restaurant. It was my daughter's 19th birthday, and I had travelled from San Diego to Santa Barbara to take her out for her special day. The server did surprise us at the end with a serving of vegan avocado ice cream, which was a nice gesture.
Great and lively atmosphere but really bad timing on serving the food. We felt very rushed. We received our salad and side vegetable dish less than 10 minutes after sitting down and even before my drink. We had requested that the vegetable come with our entrees. One of the entrees was served 15 minutes before the second entree so I got to watch my date eat his dinner while I waited for mine.
We’ve been to the Lark many times before. It is our favorite spot in Santa Barbara. Maybe our expectations were a lot to live up to, but our most recent experience fell short. The service was not what it has been in the past and the food, at least what we ordered, was nothing to write home about. We will almost certainly give The Lark another try, as it has been so wonderful in the past.

Good food, but slightly underwhelming for the price point. Paid 200$ for 3 small plates and 2 drinks each. Maybe 25% higher than I would have expected for the quantity quality. It always comes down to value, the meal was good, but nothing drawing me back unfortunately. I think there are better experiences if you are looking to spend that much.

Utterly ridiculous. The most convoluted dinner menu I’ve ever seen. Not sure what this restaurant is trying to be. It’s a concept, but I’m hard pressed to define exactly what it is. Food over priced and not well prepared. A so called small “carafe” of wine was no different than two glasses, and more expensive. Very nice, attractive ambiance, though. Very disappointing.
Food was very good..in fact, delicious..but the prices are outrageous for the portion size and for that reason I will not be back..$36 for 3 scallops and $34 for one fillet of branzino..too much
Delicious food, great service, cool atmosphere. My only complaint is that it gets a little loud in the dining room. Otherwise, this is an amazing place to visit. You won't be disappointed

The food here is amazing and so is the wait staff. It does get a little noisy when it’s busy, but not too bad. I come to this restaurant every time I’m in town.
