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.

Celebrated our 65 wedding anniversary. Have eaten here before. Staff was so kind. Treated us to a glass of champagne. Helped us choose what to order. Shared razor clams, clam chowder, clams and shrimp. All very good. A surprise cheesecake ended our lunch. Would highly recommend.
