Reviews
I recently had an incident with a very disrespectful waiter, which I knew was not reflective of the restaurant’s usual high standards , as I’ve been there a couple times before and it my experience has always been the total opposite. Thankfully, I was able to speak with the manager, Katelyn, who handled the situation so professionally and kindly. She was incredibly patient and clearly values hospitality and each guest’s experience. She even took the time to call me personally, which showed how much she truly cares about what the restaurant represents and handled everything so professionally, as well as being so knowledgeable in this field.
I’m so happy with my experience today and had the best waiter. I’ll 100% be coming back.(especially for the bread haha) very soon! Thank you Katelyn for such a memorable experience 🙂
Raw Oysters – grassy bar from morro bay. Tasted fresh, non fishy, and premium as described.
Charbroiled oysters – flavorful and tender. Actually went well with the complimentary bread.
Lure fries – thinner cut, crispy, and well seasoned. Supposedly they use lemony seasoning they usually flavor fish with.
Clam linguini – perfect balance of flavor, lightness, and health, with plenty of clams. Not too thick or heavy.
Service: Julissa was very friendly and welcoming to first timers and explained items on the menu well, including their local daily catch menu. We also sat by the back wall for more quiet & privacy, and she checked in on us at the right times and frequency without being overly attentive or having us talk mid-bite. 5 stars!
This was our favorite seafood spot during our 3 day santa barbara trip. Would definitely return!
Our server did not show professional service manners. When she served our water, she almost banged the glass on the table, and she repeatedly made loud noises while placing our dishes down, compared to other servers. She also did not place the dish in front of me. Instead, she set it far from my seat without asking where it should go. The order in which our dishes were served was also unusual. The starter bread was very soggy inside and tasted old. The main dish and salad were brought out at the same time, and my cioppino was not as hot as it usually is.
My husband ordered the tuna poke, but the ingredients did not blend well together, and the chips that came with it were soggy. The salad was delicious and the fries were crispy, but overall, the experience felt disappointing. Because of the service, I could not leave a good tip. I felt unwelcome and unable to enjoy my lunch, and my husband and friend felt the same way.
I hope the restaurant can improve staff service manners and greet guests with a warmer, friendlier attitude moving forward. The host was friendly. Lure has always been one of my favorite places, and I would love to enjoy it the way I used to.
Management needs to support their staff more for when they get slammed; they know they’re the most reasonably priced place for good quality seafood, and SHOULD expect getting hit.
Hadn’t been here in a while. Music didn’t seem as noisy.
Left VERY satisfied after having been to the old Beachside couple times. Still also a bummer Enterprise is gone. This place is holding its own.
On point oysters. Shrimp cocktail was money.
The main menu largely lives up to expectations.
That said, our recent visit had a few disappointments. Most notably, the kids’ linguine with butter sauce was virtually tasteless—a barebones plate of plain noodles with barely any seasoning or richness. Even for a child’s dish, it felt like an afterthought, lacking the care shown in the rest of the menu.
Service was also inconsistent. Our waiter was frequently nowhere to be found, leaving us waiting to place orders, ask for refills, or even cutleries are heard me. While it wasn’t a full house, it felt like we were forgotten at times, which affected the overall experience.
Lure Fish House still has a lot going for it—especially if you’re there for the seafood—but between the underwhelming kids’ option and spotty service, there’s room for improvement. Hopefully just an off night at an otherwise solid establishment.
