I stopped in for lunch and ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich. Wow! The chicken was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed with flavor. Then I added a side of Onion Rings, and let me tell you, these easily rank in my Top 4 onion rings of all time. Perfectly cooked, crispy, and absolutely delicious. My future daughter-in-law ordered the Ricotta & Fruit Toast, and it looked amazing. Fresh, colorful, and almost too pretty to eat... almost. If you're out walking the trails by the river and start feeling hungry, do yourself a favor and stop in. Whether you're looking for breakfast, lunch, or just a great place to relax for a bit, you won't be disappointed. And if you're ordering the onion rings, don't plan on sharing--they're that good!

While these transient wretches microwave their Sad Cuisine in their Marriot holding cells, Lark's seventh floor aerie curates a dining experience well worth the exorbitant price tag. The service here is outrageously on-point while the appetizer, pasta and main courses are both inventive and delicious. I love duck and their duck in a currant infused sauce was the best I've ever had... anywhere. Given the tiny portions there's no risk of leaving here "stuffed" but you will leave amazed and satisfied that you have experienced something truly special. As a bonafide hater of foodie hype in any form, I have no choice but to give Lark a resounding five stars. PS... Bala Cynwyd, PA must have more cemeteries (including a sprawling Pet cemetery) per capita than any place on the planet. More poor souls that will never experience Lark.

It was still quite hot outside, so we opted to sit inside. We were taken up to the second floor and had a table with a nice view of the Schuylkill River. We ordered two appetizers - Nonna's Meatballs and the Crispy Eggplant. I almost always order meatballs if they are on the menu. The first bite of a meatball was a little disappointing-it had a harder texture with a chewier bite. I know everyone has different preferences, but I prefer a softer textured meatball. I expected marinara (didn't read the description - '...with a sage veal jus') and was surprised to see a shallow dark colored sauce. The sauce had an interesting taste - lots of flavor - if the beef and pork meatball had any flavor, it was overwhelmed by the sauce. I'll say I liked the sauce for 'a change', however, I would have preferred marinara. The next appetizer was much better - the Crispy Eggplant. The rectangular shaped cuts of eggplant had been coated with breadcrumbs and crispy shallots with a hint of lemon. There were two little containers of dill yogurt for dipping. The eggplant was fresh, the breadcrumbs combined with the crispy shallots made for a delicious coating! The dill yogurt was a wonderful dip. It was an excellent appetizer. For our entree, we ordered the Mushroom Zucchini pizza with fontina cheese, thyme, truffle oil and chili flakes (I somehow 'missed seeing' the chili flakes). I don't tolerate spice and would have excluded the chili flakes, but it was a very limited amount and the heat was fine (my partner likes a little heat and loved it). The pizza was divine - large, delicious mushrooms and thin slices of zucchini covered the top, the truffle oil gave it a special flavor and the fontina cheese reminded me why I love a good 'white pizza'! While the meal got off to a 'tough' start, it ended up nicely and we'll be back to try some of the pasta dishes!

They have small table seating downstairs, but larger parties can seat upstairs, but even with that, there's not a lot of room for larger parties. No problem for us today with a party of 2. I ordered a PB and bacon burger and fries. This burger is SOLID and the fries are also good. The list of burgers are along a pretty wild and wacky range, so stop by for a fun experience with trying something new. The vibe is early 2000's and slightly urban/grunge, but in a casual kind of way. Nice place for a casual dinner, but nothing to go out of your way for. Would definitely stop by if in the area!
