Welcome to Lark, the rustic neighborhood restaurant opened by chef John Sundstrom, manager Kelly Ronan, and JM Enos. Located in Seattle’s Capitol Hill, Lark provides a leisurely dining experience to be shared with friends and family. Inside, you’ll find the décor to be restrained, yet elegant with an exposed beam ceiling and sheer curtains to soften the wood. Our menu features a range of small plates, allowing you to savor courses of cheese, charcuterie, vegetables, grains, fish, and meats. We work with local artisans, farmers, and foragers for an ever-changing selection that offers the best of each season, bright and intense with summer, heartening and rich in the fall. Sundstrom’s version of small plates is intended to inspire communal dining with waves of courses coming to your table, a blend of simple, seasonal, classic, and adventurous dishes. You dine, talk, and laugh while experiencing more flavors than with traditional entrées. Seattle Magazine's Top 10 Seattle Restaurants The ever seasonal cooking tastes better than ever. It’s incredibly rare to find a restaurant at the top of its game four years into its life, especially one that was stellar to start with. But that’s the case with Lark, where James Beard Award–winning chef and owner John Sundstrom never ceases to amaze us with fastidiously sourced ingredients and finessed cooking. The small-plate menu celebrates the constantly shifting seasons; diners can devour the season’s first ramps, then firm garden-fresh peas, then local morels in a succession of spring dinners. Or create a virtual greatest-hits tasting menu by opting for the quietly sensational yellowtail carpaccio, drizzled with a subtle Meyer lemon oil and dotted with a smattering of green olives, followed by silken chicken liver parfait and perhaps ending with a seemingly humble but thoroughly lovely malt ice cream. Service moves with a practiced ease, reassuring diners with smart wine pairings and opinionated knowledge of the menu. All this is within a rustic, candlelit dining room that is pure pleasure to spend time in, surrounded by the ever-present hum of conversation and the relaxed clinking of wine glasses.
