  • Well it seems that the wife and I just had to move out of Ballantyne for the good restaurants to move in. We were lucky to be in the area recently and saw that Lure was open for business. We had heard that an oyster bar was coming to Charlotte and that made both of us excited. First thing that I noticed walking in was the revamped decor to give you the oyster shack feel. It also looks like they have few seats for a raw bar, as well as ample regular bar seating. For our quick lunch on this visit, we opted for a high top table, but in the future I would either do a booth or sit at the bar. The menu itself is quite varied and not only seafood/oyster driven, which is fine to please all types of palates. We were there for seafood to include raw oysters. We got six each of their northwest oysters from British Columbia and they were delicious. I would have asked for some hot sauce or sriracha, as none was on the table but we were in a rush and the oysters looked too good to wait. We used the cocktail sauce and mignonette provided. As entree, I chose the Bar Harbor lobster roll and the wife went with crab cake sandwich. Now I have had some lobster rolls in my time and this one is legit. It's served cold, as it should be, and on a warm toasted bun with a good filling portion of lobster. I doubt that the lobster was freshly shucked but it doesn't have to be, and we are quite a ways away from Bar Harbor, so I don't expect it. Oh and the house chips were perfect for me, thick, crispy and not greasy. I tasted the crab cake itself and it was good, but the lobster was better. The wife is allergic to lobster so she could not indulge in the roll. All in all, a solid meal and it was definitely 4+ stars, but can't pull the trigger on 5 stars yet. The service was fine and I am sure that them being open for a week explains the few hiccups that we encountered. We will likely return as often as we can and trust me, my upgrade to 5 stars is coming. I look forward to new different oysters varietals and seasonal dishes in the future.
