Lure Fishbar

Walking into Lure feels a bit like entering an extremely chic submarine. From the portholes and teak paneling, to angular passageways and cabin-inspired private rooms, Lure certainly impresses first-timers with its luxury liner motif. That said, it's the food �" the truest measure of a restaurant's capacity for staying afloat �" that makes this place SoHo's fashionable choice for fish and seafood.

Those opting for bar food dining can enjoy Puget Sound oysters, arctic char or Littleneck clams; meanwhile, the "Fish Board" features options like grilled swordfish with soy-ginger marinade and bay leaf-crusted seared tuna. If you're looking to splurge, the surf and turf is a good way to go.
