Casual dining, beautiful patio, vegan options - Edit
The Mark used to be a fine-dining restaurant before COVID; now it's a more casual cafe-style Italian pizza place while still maintaining the ambience of a fine-dining restaurant. There were several vegan pizza options (including vegan cheese!), and a few other vegan options, like a cold pasta salad, an arugula salad, and sautéed spinach. They're open Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays 5:30-11pm. The back patio is so pretty, very romantic, but with a casual cafe vibe. We chatted with the owner for a bit, who was lovely. I was happy to find a vegan friendly option late at night on a weekend, and the atmosphere just made the experience top notch.

Another nice find - Edit
Some tasty choices for vegans. Had a pasta dish that was pretty spicy. I was with 1 other vegan and she was happy and 2 meat eaters and both were good. Very friendly wait staff and owner was here too explaining food dishes.

Great food, not a lot of vegan options - Edit
The Mark is a fine-dining "slow food" establishment that serves Italian fare. You'll want to make reservations, especially for dinner. Several years back I heard a presentation from the owner, and at that time The Mark was one of the few restaurants in the United States using 100% organic ingredients, including oils and spices. The food is delicious, with seasonal ingredients, but the menu usually only has one vegan option available. I think they are willing to improvise or adapt other dishes if asked. The service is always friendly, but their philosophy is very "localvore." I asked for the cheese to be left off my pasta and the server said, "oh, but it's local cheese!," and I said, "I still need it left off." Despite this, it is definitely still worth the trip!
