The service was attentive and professional, the food was excellent. We had the opportunity to try several new appetizers that were outstanding. To top it off, the kitchen surprised us with our favorite dessert. Oysters from New York were perfect.<br><br>Thank you to the entire team for the warm hospitality. We look forward to returning.

The food was fine, the highlight is definitely the vibe. We didn’t have a reservation but managed to get a seat after a long wait. The highlight was the tuna taco, the sushi dishes were mid

Went to dinner here with my coworkers started off with crispy rice, deviled eggs, and shrimp, which they all tasted really good, flavorful, warm, and fresh. We ordered mock tails. I got the lychee soda, and my coworker got the lemon drop which they both tasted really good and flavorful and on the larger side of a drink. We ordered a couple different rolls, yellowtail sushi, followed by Sumisa, salmon and another salmon dish with potatoes and vegetables. I felt like I was in a boat due to the atmosphere being set like you’re on a ship. Staff was friendly and nice. The main boss stopped by our table to ask us how everything was going.<br><br>I would recommend anyone that likes sushi followed by some good entrées and drinks. This is the place to check out date night celebrating your birthday or just going out with family. Give it chance.

This is the best meal I've ever had the opportunity to have. There are two MUSTS!! Get anything on the crispy rice and the Toro Scallion Roll. Good Lord it's not even fair how good this food is! Bailey was a great server, I have a gluten allergy, if she didn't know the answer, she went and asked, which was a lot because we ordered so much!<br><br>10/10 recommend

Amazing experience here! I don’t know which was better - the food or the service. Jesus was our waiter and he was the best waiter we’ve ever had. He was attentive and truly cared about us. The food was incredible as well. Fish was fresh and meat was cooked to perfection. Recommending this restaurant to all my friends.

Beautiful restaurant (unless they seat you in the back). Food was not as good as expected. The crispy rice was OK but seemed a bit stale. The salmon was fine. I don’t think the kale Cesar salad belongs on their menu, it was very generic. None of the food was interesting or special. If you like food that isn’t seasoned or saucy, maybe you should go here but the service was not great. Our waitress was MIA and we had to flag down a different waiter every time that we wanted to order. The bathrooms were closed, no apologize or explanation on that, so we had to go across the street in the middle of dinner (30°f). Dessert was ok. I don’t think that this restaurant is doing anything new, interesting, or fun, other than being a boat.

As a Hungarian, it was touching to see Tokaji Aszú on the menu alongside the cheesecake — a subtle nod to home. The food was excellent and perfectly matched our friends’ recommendations. A truly satisfying experience.

Lure Fishbar had been on my list for a while. However, I think it is alright, leaving a bit to be desired. I’ll lead with the pros and minor misses -<br><br>Pros -<br>Uni bucatini was delectable, creamy, flavorful, the pasta was al dente and the red chilies cut through the richness occasionally so it was so easy to keep enjoying the dish<br><br>The spicy tuna crispy rice was delicious. I love their little twist on the classic crispy rice that adds to the texture. Cant ever knock a crispy rice but this was definitely a memorable one!<br><br>Crispy rock shrimp was addicting and crunchy. The batter was light and the shrimp were fresh and great!<br><br>Minor misses -<br>The seafood tower was a considerable let down. Aside from the shrimp, the oysters and clams were unpleasantly fishy and sandy. The seafood salad was also bland and chewy in a very unpleasant way. Though this is one minor miss, I would anticipate a seafood oriented restaurant to perfect their seafood towers<br><br>Overall it’s a nice establishment. The interior design is unique and well thought out, mimicking the interior of a boat.

I visited Lure Fishbar with my family and we had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere is stylish yet cozy, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our visit. The seafood was incredibly fresh and flavorful - especially the fish dishes, which were perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. It’s a wonderful spot for a family dinner in the heart of SoHo. Highly recommend!

This place has the most amazing atmosphere, food, and service. Think of cool below deck, yacht vibes. We had the pleasure of speaking to John and loved every moment of this experience. Will definitely be coming back.

The sushi here was amazing. One of the best I’ve had, and the spicy tuna crispy rice, deviled eggs, and Hellfire roll were delicious. The inside also had a lovely atmosphere, with the interior made to look like you’re inside of a fancy yacht restaurant. I would definitely come back here.

This place got recommended to me because I love seafood. Firstly, the fish was very fresh and the food was delicious. We got oysters , crispy rice , tacos and some rolls. The restaurant was very busy , but the service was not as great as I expected. Regardless it was a nice experience.

This place is absolutely wonderful beautifully decorated and incredibly cozy. I felt like I was inside an old luxury ship, and the atmosphere was relaxing and inviting.<br>We ordered the impeccable shrimp tempura, which completely won my heart ,so flavorful and fresh. We also had a few sushi pieces, and each one was perfectly prepared and incredibly fresh.<br>I loved everything!

The service was top notch. The atmosphere is just absolutely adorable. Designed to feel like you are on a boat, the portholes especially were awesome. It felt warm and cozy with the wood tones and plaid chairs. The menu is good. Maybe they are more known for their sushi. We had two of the fish dishes...the Branzina and the halibut. Both really had almost no flavor which was disappointing given their description. The lobster bisque had a Smokey flavor and dare i say it, almost too many big chicks of lobster not mention $24 a bowl. I'd go back because of the inviting atmosphere but i think I'd try the sushi
