Below Prince Street, Lure Fishbar is fitted out like the cabin of a vintage yacht — porthole windows, teak paneling, banquettes built for lingering. It's been SoHo's dependable seafood glamour spot for two decades, weathering every downtown restaurant cycle with the same crowd of shoppers, gallerists, and dealmakers.
The menu runs two tracks: a serious sushi bar and a classic fish house — and both hold up. The lobster roll and the crispy fish sandwich anchor lunch; dinner leans toward whole fish and the raw tower. The sushi counter in back is the quiet seat in an otherwise humming room.
