Lark came in at No. 37 on the list.

It is located at 611 Righters Ferry Road in Bala Cynwyd.

Here's what the magazine said about Lark:

For Nick Elmi, the suburbs brought stunning rooftop views and a new legion of fans. But what Elmi brought with him is his talent for balancing complex flavors (roasted dorade with fennel, chili and golden raisins; burrata with honeynut squash, sage pesto, hazelnut and fig). Lark is laid-back luxury, casual and cool without making a big thing about it. You can’t eat the gnocco fritto with ricotta and prosciutto and not have a good time.

Lark has garnered heaps of praise, some even before it opened.

It was named one of the area's most anticipated spots of 2021 and was chosen among the 50 best restaurants by Philly Mag before.

The publication was also listed as the best suburban restaurant in 2022.

Another nearby spot, Autana in Ardmore, was featured on the list as well.
