“Lure has been one of my favorite seafood restaurants in California. So excited to see that they opened up one in San Luis Obispo. Had to try it out. The oysters are always fresh and did not disappoint. They usually have a fairly decent price on their whole lobster, although I did not have it for lunch that day. In addition to the oysters, I had the fresh ceviche. It was really good. Check it out when you’re in the area!“

“Everyone always talks about Firestone and Old SLO, but CJ's is by far the BEST bbq slo has to offer!! We got the baby back ribs, fried catfish, potato skins, and onion rings. All were a solid 11/10. The ribs melted off the bone and the catfish was seasoned so well. Onion rings were the best ones I've had in a long time. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving BBQ.“

“Love the food here, they do a wonderful meal. I have issues with all of the plastic that is used to serve the meals. It would be really nice to have bowls and utensils that could be washed and reused for eat in customers. A good example is The Oki Momo grill located on Broad street. I eat at Oki Momo more often than at Poki Rito because I can eat in and not throw away all of that plastic. They wash and reuse ;)“

“Excellent food and service here—top notch! I was saddened to see the microcosm of negative reviews show up near the top here. All employed here seem locked on serving fresh, tasty authentic food.

The kiosk ordering system feels a bit weird, but it does allow you many customization options. Just be aware that it is like a giant iPad; if your wishes are not visible, scroll!

My only suggestion would be to dim the (nicely warm) lights a bit.“
