We had a lovely dinner here tonight! So glad I listened to the most recent reviews. This place is a gem along Lake Ontario. The wait staff were so nice, friendly and courteous. I started with a yummy margarita, followed by a delicious prime rib dinner, cooked to perfection. And the view from the waterfront booth was amazing! This restaurant is beautiful inside, so glad we found it. We are from Southern California, however, I would definitely come here the next time I'm in Rochester New York. read more

I read the one and only Yelp review and got nervous. I started with a specialty martini and it kept getting better. Brunch on a winter Sunday, I quickly found out that the chef and the menu had recently changed. The chef came out to chat and we found out that the menu offerings change weekly. All the items were perfectly cooked and seasoned. I don't like salmon at all but this was not fishy, moist and flaky. I would go back for the waffles which are known as sugar cone waffles, they crisp up just a bit on the outside and taste so much like ice cream sugar cones. The penne and vodka sauce was creamy, had tender tomato chunks and tasted of the diced pancetta in it. Ok, one more.... the duck potstickers were great and the house chili sauce addicting. read more

Very nice views!!! Service was amazing and very caring. Food was good with great options

Excellent food and friendly service. The were short staffed and still hustled to please all their customers. We will be returning!! read more

I want this place to be there forever. I really am rooting for them. They were busy. We showed up for a reservation and got turned down. They were trying every excuse. They told the group behind us something similar. No phone calls made to give us a heads up or anything. Inexcusable. read more

Pros: Nice decor, view of lake nice, handicap accessible (via elevator), and good food. Cons: Extremely slow service, not enough staff, and very loud setting. My family and I decided to give this restaurant a shot. The place itself is nice decor-wise, however the place is very loud. You practically had to yell to be heard by others at the table. The first issue we ran into was they did not have enough menus for the amount of people there, we addressed this by using the menu on their Facebook page. My children ordered off the kids menu, my wife ordered one of the specials and I ordered the fish fry. The order process took a while as the staff appeared to be unable to handle the amount of customers they had. When our food arrived, there were issues. Each entree was missing one of it's side items. It took a while for the corrections to made. The food quality was good, everything was cooked properly. However, the service continued to be poor. I received one glass of water and was never offered a refill. The same held true for my wife and daughter. My son who had a soft drink, was offered refills multiple times. Apparently, water is hard to come by when we are near the lake.... We received our bill which was correct, but we had to flag down another person to process our payment as we waited at least ten minutes for our server to come back. Once our check was taken care of we promptly left to (a) get out of the noise and (b) be able to leave the restaurant. The food is good, but the service really did in this place. I may give it another try, but I would need to be really convinced that the service improved after this night. read more

This place has really kicked it up a notch and gotten it together. Food is on point w/ daily specials that are delicious. Front of house does a fabulous job. So glad to have this place in the area, and the view of Lake Ontario isn't bad either. If you haven't gone GO. read more

First time visit was for lunch; what a great ambiance with stunning view of the boats, marina, and Lake Ontario. Clean, slick, and generous seating. Ladies' room was spotless and roomy. Service was friendly and efficient. Very satisfied with my chicken wings, salad, and coffee. My friend's Beef on Weck with fries looked wonderful; she said it was! Reasonable prices. Will be going back for dinner soon! read more

We had heard of this restaurant on the lake through radio advertisments. This was our second time here in the last few weeks. The first was a relaxing drink at the bar on a Saturday afternoon. The bartender was friendly and we thought worth coming back for dinner, we did notice it was rather loud considering it wasn't very busy. We went last night for dinner, we were sat quickly in the dinning area near the bar, it was extremely loud, the waitress apologized. The fish frys were very good and the server was nice. We like the place, it's close to home and will go back but we will ask to sit away from the bar or weather permitting outside. The loudness was the only thing we were unhappy about otherwise a very beautiful place worth a trip. read more

Don't bother. They are not in a position to run a restaurant. Made a reservation for our anniversary dinner and were turned away at the door at 6:30 on Saturday night. Manager took the reservation. Hostess was helpless. Not an apology or even acknowledgement. read more

By far the WORST dining experience I've ever had. Went to dinner tonight with my husband and a couple friends of and thought we'd try someplace new. My husband and his friend ordered the steak which they said was good. However, myself and my friend both ordered the chicken and after taking a couple of bites I checked my food after having to really chew it to find that both my chicken & my friends were completely raw. Our waitress appeared undertrained and was quite rude. When the soups/salads came I politely said that we were missing a soup and in response the waitress rolled her eyes and gave the table attitude telling me I was wrong and did not order a soup. I've worked in dining and I can tell you whether I did or did not, that is not how you treat a customer. I was appalled by how she spoke to me and her body language even when we simply asked for one more soup. When we informed her that the chickens were raw she snatched the plates and walked away without letting us say anymore. After a few minutes my friend had to go to the bar since our waitress left without saying a word. My friend and I ended up not eating dinner and when the bill came the waitress dumped the bill and never said a word to us. In positive: the head waitress came over to speak to the table, was very pleasant and apologized for the experience we had. Unfortunately we will not be returning... friend and I both had food poisoning that night/following day. read more

Stopped in on a Wednesday evening for a meal with my wife and sister and her husband. Being 7:30 we were surprised to walk in on a full bar with a band so loud we couldn't hear our waiter. Should have taken a hint and left. Half the food on the menu weren't available. We all ordered fish, veggies, garlic mashed potatoes. Fish came out hot the rest was cold and I mean cold not even luke warm. Won't make this mistake again. read more

We ordered fish fries for takeout last night. They were the best fish fries we have had in a very long time. I must say they were so large you couldn't eat the whole thing. Very satisfied. read more

Just read Natalie F. review and agree 100%. Great place ,food and service. We've been there at least a 1/2 dozen times and really enjoy ourselves. Then we go to Schwenk's Winery (Bills Road) to top off our beautiful day. We recommend both for a beautiful day. read more

Wonderful service, food and views. Definitely recommend when in the area. The fried shrimp was a hit at the table.

This is a nice place for a waterfront view, good food, reasonably priced. Stopped by for breakfast on the patio and really enjoyed the morning! read more

Great service at the bar by Betha. Crab and corn chowder was excellent. Had a great burger perfectly fine. Fabulous view.

Went for Mother's Day brunch and it was extremely disappointing. I'm not even a mom and it was an awful experience. Buffet was sloppily set up in the middle of the bar area . That made it hard to get $6 warm mimosa which was basically just orange juice in a small glass. The food was nothing better than a hotel complimentary breakfast. The only thing they have going for them in their view of the water. Also heard the bar tender say they ran out of Bloody Mary mix. Dessert choices were frozen slices of pie and some store bought cookies. This is a very casual place. Not as advertised and far from anything special read more

We had a party of 6 people at the restaurant with a reservation at 7:00 PM. We arrived early to enjoy a cocktail prior to our reservation. Checked in at the desk at 7:00. Sat at our table at 7:30 and our dinner arrived to our table at 9:20. Besides the fact that it took so long, 2 dinners arrived very cold (to cold to be eaten). Never even received an apology from the manager when we asked to speak to her although they took 10% off the bill. ARE YOU KIDDING ME! read more

We went last evening, party of 5 and we were seated right away. The restaurant was busy but the room we were in was maybe half occupied. The restaurant is noisy, the bar area even worse. I am guessing our server was new?, you could hardly hear her, she didn't know of any specials, didn't refill water unless you asked. We received our drinks in a timely fashion and shortly after gave our dinner order. And we waited and drank, and waited and waited. A table for 2 that arrived after us got their food and we waited. Finally I flagged her down, she was good at avoiding her tables being focused on one thing at a time, and I told her we needed a few refills and were we going to eat tonight?, another waitress came over and tried to explain something about this room is the overf room and the kitchen was an hour and a half behind, whatever, whatever. Seriously??? No one thought to say something before now? Finally our food arrived, it was good and it was hot. We ate but before we were completely finished the room was being cleaned and we felt rushed to get out. We waited over 2 hours to get our food, we should be able to eat it At our leisure. Not going back. read more

We have visited Lure's several times over the last months and must say that the venue is fantastic: phenominal views of Lake Ontario and the boats in the marina from both the indoor and outdoor veranda tables. This is a pretty new establishment and early on the service was not great, but they have consistently improved and the food has always been top notch. Saturday night enjoyed a prime rib as good as any I have ever tasted. Service was excellent, wine choices are moderate and there is a huge bar if you just wanted to stop in for an app and a drink to enjoy the view. Worth the drive on the Parkway to Kendall ! read more

Great lakefront dining! Comfortable and fun atmosphere. Good for any occasion. Being a new restaurant there are several areas where more training is needed, but the owners and management are working diligently to improve all service aspects throughout the restaurant. Live music on Wednesday's and Sunday's too! So fun! read more

Food is amazing! Atmosphere is perfect lakeside leisure. Other than 2 bar tenders the service is terrible. After messing up our order several times, We were actually told by the server "I can't go home until you leave." We left. read more

Have heard that it was good,so we checked it out. The place is very clean with plenty of seating. The booths will seat six comfortably. The food is excellent. I had the classic burger with coleslaw and my g/f had a Ruben with fries. Plenty of beer choices. Staff is gracious. Prices are reasonable. Will make this a favorite place to go to. 5 stars!!!! read more

We've been there four times; the food is good but the service needs improvement. We went last night and had trouble getting the correct bill, this morning I checked and I was billed twice; two different amounts. I am still waiting for a call back from them. We went on Fathers day for brunch; had a 10:00 am reservation for seven people. We were seated at 10:30 and ordered breakfast. By noon we changed our order to lunch items since our breakfast hadn't come. They did apologize and took 20% off our bill. Staff had called in sick. read more
