We went to Lure with a party of five. They do not take reservations but we were seated quickly and had a look at the menu. Everything looked good and the prices were reasonable. The restaurant was nicely appointed and very clean. The Mahi Mahi was delicate and perfectly cooked, the charbroiled oysters were delicious. The trout Almondine was a... More

What a pleasant dining experience. Although we waited over thirty minutes for a table for 2 it was definitely worth it. My husband ordered the fish and chips and they were fresh and fabulous! The lobster ravioli which I ordered was also good but it seemed to be missing some ingredient which neither of us could quite put our finger... More

Have several different types of oysters very fresh and excellent. Cioppino, sand dabs and everything else we've had was extremely good. Always enjoy going.

We are return diners at Lure living in Camarillo and have always been amazed at the continued great food here and the freshest fish. Dan was our server on this occasion and is the best most attentive server we have ever experienced. We will always return!

When the Lure first opened, we dined there on special occasions. The food was great, although pricey. The staff was very accomadationg and friendly. And the atmosphere was very appropriate for a Fish House Restaurant. However, our recent visit with the extended family proved to be disappointing. The choices on the menu were about the same, but the portions they... More

The Lure is one of our favorite restaurants in Ventura County. The fish is nearly always perfectly prepared--moist and not over-cooked. The sides are delicious. My favorite is the spinach! Great prices and great service!

We loved the food at The Lure and we were told that management was trying to get a handle on the service issue. We went again, this time with out-of-town company, on a busy Friday evening. Service was indeed better. There seemed to be adequate staff and the food was as good as before. Word is obviously out about the... More

Typical chain restaurant trying to be a little upscale. Large one dining area was a bit too noisy and crowded. Service was slow, fish dishes were okay. Not bad, but just okay. I'd rather pay a few dollars more and eat somewhere else.

I was on my way to Point Mugu (near Camarillo, CA) on a business trip. After three and a half hours of driving, I finally reached my destination. After settling in, I decided to stop in this restaurant for dinner. It was the best decision I made this whole trip. I arrived during their happy hour, so I sat at... More

I didn't expect to find a good restaurant in a shopping center, but after a referral from a friend I had the best fish dinner! The restaurant is clean, modern decor, and the food and service is great. If you like healthy, well prepared food (fish) this is the place for you.
