Lark - Janesville

Pleasant atmosphere, comfortable seating. Food was served hot, and items ordered were delicious. Highly recommend Lark for an exceptional dining experience.

Absolutely wonderful place. Had the prixe fix tonight which included sweet potato and bacon ravioli, risotto, and green tomato sorbet.Simply put, the sweet potato and bacon ravioli tasted like a loaded baked potato wrapped up inside ravioli.The risitto was absolutely nuts. First off, the risotto was more liquidy than I was used to, not quite soupy but also not the thick rice I was used to. Maybe most importantly to me, I was a little unsure about the duck because I've had it a time or two and it was less than special. This time I could tell it was different than chicken or turkey, it had a very distinct and specific flavor I've never tasted before. The way it blended with the risotto was absolutely amazing. Each piece of the risotto went amazingly well with each of the other pieces, any pair of ingredients mixing together to form another distinct and stand out flavor. The goat cheese and fig, while few and small in volume, really gave a small treat to each bite they were included in and added a lot of depth. The dish, while fantastic on its own, was not complete with the encompassing balsamic. It really brought the whole dish together and brought it to whole other level.As for dessert, I was very curious as to how this mix of seemingly random fall ingredients would taste. Surprisingly, it was fantastic and most certainly unique. This was much like the risotto in terms of pieces and depth. A sweet desert turned almost savory with the addition of the salty Ritz cracker crumble around the chedder cheese. Unsure of how it would blend, I was pleasently surprised particularly at how well the pumpkin mixed with the chedder and Ritz crumble. That flavor profile paired well with the green tomato sorbet and especially well with the apple strips. Not my favorite thing in the world but not at all bad and certainly very unique. At least I thought it was, might be a more common combination than I think. The level of creativity here gives it a lot or extra points in my book.Overall, very good. Dessert was more interesting than great for the restaurant and the sweet potato and bacon ravioli was almost disappointingly familiar. The main course was one of my favorite things I've ever had and definitely something I would look to replicate on my own in the future.Disclaimer: I am just a random college kid who likes to eat, I don't actually know anything about food. I am literally just spouting words. Love this restaurant and it inspired me to cook fancy for myself and family. My girlfriend thought it was fun to read my review over text and told me to post it so here it is!

Can't get food like this anywhere. Creative full of flavor fresh. Wonderful drinks and great service with a calming

Everything from the drinks, food, to the music was amazing! 10/10 would recommend!

We went on a night when there was a concert in the courthouse park right across the street. The restaurant was EMPTY which made things feel very strange. I would recommend the owners explore adding more tables outside during events like that. Other than that, our experience was superb. The best steak frites I have ever had, anywhere. Unique because it was a 20oz ribeye. Fries were perfect. Pork chop was also very good. Drinks were excellent. I was very impressed with the mocktail options and really enjoyed mine as I was DD. Service was very friendly and quick, though take that with a grain of salt since we were literally the only people in the entire place. Recommend!
