    Came for an afternoon lunch with a friend. The host staff was lovely and courteous, allowing me to sit while my friend was running late. The raw fish is always delicious here, and I had the crab legs which were to die for. Drinks were amazing and our waitress, I wish I remembered her name, she was lovely as well. Lure has always been my favorite place in SoHo, so don’t miss out.
