Have you peeked at our Encores menu yet? It’s where we tuck all the good things that make the end of an evening feel complete, like house‑made desserts, thoughtful after‑dinner drinks, and those little finishing touches that turn a night at The Lakely into a full experience.

One of the standouts is our Lemon Tree tarte au citron, inspired by Fool’s Garden’s 1995 track. We set a silky and bright double cream lemon curd into an almond cookie crust and add fresh berries to round out the plate. It’s simple, delicious, and exactly the kind of dessert that makes lingering a little longer feel like the right choice.
