The Lark
More than a restaurant, The Lark is a culinary landmark and a driving force behind the Funk Zone’s transformation. Owned by Acme Hospitality, it helped transform the once-industrial neighborhood into one of Santa Barbara’s most vibrant dining destinations. Blending California’s farm-to-table ethos with artistic flair, The Lark has spent over a decade delighting guests and cultivating community through exceptional food, hospitality, and design.
