The service was lovely. Not rushed at all. The food was delicious. We would come here again anytime.
Easy to make a reservation. Our request for outdoor table was accommodated. Good selection of food and bevies. Made it within happy hour which was a plus!
They seem disorganized, understaffed, and anxious. The drinks and food took quite a while to arrive, and the food was bland. I think the prices reflected the neighborhood only. Looked fancy online and had great reviews. Ended up being a bit disappointing for our date.
My wife and I have waited for a date night to eat at Skylarks. We reserved a table for our wedding anniversary. When we arrived, the host got us seated and comfortable pretty quickly. It all kind of went downhill from there. Our server was very nice overall but I think tasked with also helping a patio party as well so we waited about 20 min for her to even check back in on drinks etc. Another server approached our table with our check. We wanted to order coffee and dessert. My wife is more passive than I but I was pretty direct in saying we'd like to order dessert if we could. Coffee showed up pretty quickly but it was another 20+ minutes for dessert to arrive. The food and dessert were great but either they were understaffed or just not trained in serving/selling. I hesitated to write a review but figured you should know, we won't be back. With the French restaurant and Black Cat competing for our $125 or more dollar dinners... the experience could have been better
Food was fine, our server was nice but handed the nearest person the food to pass down to the next person instead of putting the plate in front of each person. It felt unprofessional. Too cold to eat outside which would have been more pleasant. No ambiance or energy inside.
Hostess & waitress were really nice. It took about 15 minutes before they took my table's order though the restaurant wasn't that busy. Then it was 45 minutes before we got served. Ordinarily, we wouldn't have minded the wait too much except that we were in town for a wedding. So we scarfed our plates down to get to the venue in time. Maybe the restaurant is understaffed. But an FYI for a later lunch service on a Saturday.
We tried this restaurant during my daughter's graduation weekend. It was a delight! I had to try the award-winning french toast, and it was wonderful! Beautiful spot for brunch!
The location and atmosphere is fantastic! Outside seating and inside seating are different vibes but both cool.
The food is generally good and some things are quite good. It’s all somewhat mainstream. Nothing particullarly unique but some good solid dishes.
Be prepared to wait. Regardless of staff member, day of week or time of day, it always takes a long time order and also to get the food….and to get the check. My last visit was nearly an hour and a half and we ate fast once we got the food.
This was my second visit to Skylarks and once again they did not disappoint. I ordered the zucchini pasta. I was surprised to find it was not pasta but zucchini ribbons with pesto and either sun dried tomatoes or peppers. The flavor was absolutely magnificent. I'm not a vegetarian but I have to say it was one of my favorite dishes ever! Extra points for the lovely cocktails.
Service was good until after we got our food. After that, nobody came to refill our waters and we sat for 25 minutes after we were done until our server came by and we could check out.

Had a great time on the packed Sea to Ski weekend. Good job. The omelette was great and the blackened shrimp Benny was spicy and delicious. Missed out on lemon ricotta pancakes- will have to go back!
Great place to eat and reasonably priced.
This is a favorite Sunday brunch place for us as they have both a full brunch menu as well as available full lunch menu... So there's no shortage of good selections. Friends at my table enjoyed several omelettes, pancakes, and sandwiches. Recommended. 
Came in as a group, we had Haley as our server she mentioned it was one of her first days serving, she was fantastic!! Food was DELICIOUS. Definitely will be back hopefully for dinner!
We went for their Mother's Day brunch. Food was amazing as always. Highly recommend the eggs benedict. The service was great!
