Its beauty will lure you in, food almost a catch
Though located in a basement off a SoHo sidewalk, it’s hard to miss due to many street level windows looking in. After a few hours traipsing around the SoHo shops, a nice place to stop in for a bite.
Decore/Ambiance: Beautifully designed and put together with lots of high-gloss wood and leather, comes off with a warm retro-yacht-club-type effect. Not at all kitschy. Good for either groups or a date. Crowd is very yuppie.
Service: Best service I’ve had in a long long time, from the waitress to the busboys.
Overall, a good restaurant that’s a bit pricey for the quality of the food. But the little things (e.g., service, dining experience, warm bread) make it worth coming back for.
Dishes I tried:
crispy blue point oysters
Fresh, very tasty, not too oily.
Steamed Branzino
Perfect consistency, delicate flavor. Comes with ponzu, scallions, ginger, and oyster mushrooms.
Grilled wahoo
Dry, short on flavor without enough soy-ginger marinade.
Lure House roll
Sounded good with spicy big eye tuna and shrimp tempura, but was average in flavor and very small for the price.

Decent meal
Since it was a cold night and I didn’t feel like walking any further, I tried this restaurant out. This turned out to be a pleasant meal.
Pros: excellent service- very attentive, warm flavorful bread, excellent cocktails/specialty drinks, wide variety of fish
Cons: Slightly on the pricier side in comparison to the portions served.
Would definitely try again (perhaps the oyster and sushi bar next time)
Dishes I tried:
Grilled wahoo
Soy-ginger marinade was great. But once you run out of it, you’re left with tasteless fish.
crispy blue point oysters
Excellent! Tastefully done and worth getting!
Steamed Branzino
Delicious flavors!
