Lark - Janesville

This place is a fantastic spot for a date or a night out with friends. I visited and enjoyed the three-course meal, which started with dinner and ended with dessert. I also tried a specialty drink made with beer, as I wanted something sweet but with a bit of a kick. The waitress was very friendly and professional, and the food was excellent. Even though I’m not usually a fan of sweets, I thought the dessert was amazing!

I've had several meals at this restaurant, and they rank among the best in the Northern Illinois and Wisconsin region. The cocktails are intriguing yet approachable, making them easy to enjoy. The food is expertly prepared and consistently incorporates fresh, seasonal ingredients. It's a must-try. Don’t overlook this gem!

This is the one standout restaurant in Janesville. Despite the town's limited dining scene, Lark is an absolute delight that consistently exceeds expectations. It would be a treasure in any city fortunate enough to have it. The menu, though small, is expertly curated and features a monthly prix fixe option. Diners will easily find something to satisfy their cravings, whether they’re in the mood for red meat, something vegetarian, a comforting dish, or something lighter. Many of the ingredients are sourced locally, adding a special touch to the food. The decor is understated yet inviting, and both the owners and staff are warm and full of surprises. With only about a dozen tables, it's wise to make a reservation for the weekend!

What a delightful surprise! The atmosphere is charming and the window seating is quite cozy. The staff are incredibly friendly, and there are some fantastic specials on the menu. I couldn't believe they have kimchi in their mac and cheese—what a unique twist! Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I look forward to visiting again.

A hidden gem in the heart of Janesville, this restaurant is the ideal spot for a quiet, romantic dinner with my husband. The waitstaff is exceptional—attentive, well-groomed, and courteous, providing prompt service. The low-lit ambiance and elegant décor create a pleasing atmosphere, and we particularly enjoyed the birdcage light fixtures that complemented the theme beautifully. The appetizers, entrées, and cocktails far exceeded our expectations. We tried the popular “hot chicken” entrée, which was incredibly flavorful and something we would absolutely order again. The bar offers a sophisticated selection, including seasonal cocktails. If you're searching for a high-end dining experience outside of Madison, this is the place to be—settle in and enjoy!
