Lark on The Park, the new Shannon Wynne restaurant that promises to anchor Klyde Warren Park, is open for dinner service this week. If you've been to the park recently you know that on sunny days the space is absolutely packed with park-goers, who previously had only food trucks for options to choose from when they got hungry.

Lark promises a sit-down destination to round out an afternoon filled with putting practice, pétanque and what sometimes seems like an entire city's worth of dogs.

Newly transplanted chef duo Dennis Kelley and Melody Bishop came all the way from Los Angeles to set up a menu that promises "no cute food," according to Wynne. Here's a copy of their spring menu, if you're interested, which you will note is completely free of dainty bites and marzipan animals.
