Nine years ago, when I first visited Santa Barbara, this used to be one of the best restaurants around. Unfortunately, things have changed for the worse. The fish was overly salty, the rice was plain and lacked any seasoning or presentation, and waiting for a server took an incredibly long time. Overall, it was a huge disappointment compared to what it once was.

Loved the opportunity to have a large party. Celebrated a 60th birthday.

Staff were even gracious enough to allow us to bring our own cake and serve.

In from San Diego for Orchid Show and asked "locals" for a good seafood resturant. All we can say It was AWESOME". Bench seat does need more space for those who are not slim.

Our first experience at Lure Fish House in Santa Barbara was amazing from the moment we were greeted with a smile at the front desk and escorted to a booth where our order was taken by the very personable Tony. Service and food was amazing. This was our first experience with this restaurant but will definitely not be our last. It was a highlight of our Santa Barbara trip. We plan to return and also visit their other locations. Thank you so much.

It became a special place for me, because my boyfriend asked me to marry him. In addition, the food is very delicious along with the drinks and the service is excellent.

Such great food and service. I could have given them 5 stars for the bread and butter alone. The ceviche, white sea bass, and Sally's sand dabs were delicious! Our server was great as well.

Lure has declined significantly in my opinion. Sat at the bar for lunch with a friend. Bartender was courteous. Food has gone WAY downhill. Sand dabs and sides were horrible…. Almost inedible. Never coming back… Stay far away….

Today I treated myself to the best hot fudge sundae in the Santa Barbara region.

I was enthusiastically greeted by the hostess and then Valerie did an exceptional job on her second day working at Lure. Many staff, including the manager came up to see how I was doing + this was really nice, especially since I was sitting on my own.

And below is my review from another visit

We were warmly greeted more than once as our party came at different times and we had a wonderful luncheon and that lasted a few hours

Marisa, our server did a fantastic job meeting every need

A big bravo to the whole staff at lure

One of my absolute favorite restaurants when I want to treat myself

Excellent place! Very delicious and enjoyable atmosphere.
Usually seafood restaurants in South California, for some reason, are not good, but we were surprised…this place really is a hidden gem! Will come back here again.
Recomendacion!
