Great food, reasonable prices, friendly staff. The bartenders always talk to me as if we were friends for many years.
While lazing around on New Year 's Day, the question came up. We really should eat something. Where do you want to go? The Lark sprang to mind because I heard about their Thanksgiving Egg Rolls and really wanted to try them. This was the perfect opportunity. I called and thankfully they were open. I snagged a space right out front on the street and they also have off street parkingWhen we walked in, the place looked pretty busy. There was only one person working the front of house. I girded for the worst, but was pleasantly surprised. She (I apologize for not remembering her name was the combination hostess, bartender, waitress, and busboy, and she excelled at each of those roles. We sat at the bar where large TVs were broadcasting the football games. (It was a Sunday after all. She took our drink orders. I had a Downeast Cider and my girlfriend ordered a lemonade. The cider was crisp and refreshing and tasted more like cider than beer, like some ciders do. For our meal, we shared the Thanksgiving Egg Rolls, my girlfriend had a North Shore House Salad (mixed greens, golden raisins, walnuts, feta, grape tomato, and balsamic reduction hold the feta with Grilled Shrimp. I had the California Burger (with Lark 's special sauce, guacamole, and feta cheese no bun and a side salad instead of fries. (It 's the New Year. Got to eat right for at least one day, right? The egg rolls were fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside with fresh roasted turkey and homemade stuffing on the inside. They serve it with a maple honey glaze and turkey gravy dip to complete the experience. Amazing. I might just close my kitchen and order them next thanksgiving. They 're that good. The burger was also very good and cooked exactly to order. I commented that a burger without a bun looked pretty lonely. But that 's how I ordered it. The grilled shrimp on the salad looked pretty good. The salad greens on both plates didn 't look farmer 's market fresh. But they were tasty nonetheless. When things quieted down a bit, the hostess/bartender/waitress/busboy explained that they were understudied because they almost weren 't going to open (they weren 't last year because of Covid and just didn 't anticipate the crowd. But I, for one, am glad they did open. The evening went off without a hitch. And it 's always nice to start off the new year with a good meal.
I must've passed this place a million times and never saw it, but someone recommended it because of the extensive beer selection, and we decided why not? They have a big parking lot, although there is a bunch of street parking as well. We both started with a couple of beers, both awesome (unfortunately don't remember the names), but the hubby commented on how many different ABV choices there were. We got the wings, sauce on side, had the buffalo and BBQ- we did ask for the Thai chili and got the bbq instead, but no biggie. The wings were crispy and decent sized, which is always super appreciated, love love love crispy wings. The thanksgiving rolls were also awesome. Great flavors, not oily, just awesome. They were served with a side of gravy as well. For an entree we split the short rib/brisket grilled cheese with Gruyère and maple butter, and it was soooooooo good. Very unique but also really tasty. The fries were also super crispy and the onion rings are beer battered (so much better than breaded). Our server was the bartender and she was very nice, attentive, and we didn't feel rushed at all. Overall a nice informal place for a date night and will definitely be coming back!
