Reviews Summary

LURE Restaurant & Bar receives praise for its stunning waterfront views and exceptional service, with many highlighting the unique outdoor dome dining experience and the exquisite Winter Lure Menu. While the food is generally well-liked, some reviewers suggest minor improvements in flavor complexity. The service is consistently described as friendly and attentive, with specific mention of staff members going above and beyond.

"The Winter Lure Menu is truly something special. For $99, we were treated to an incredible six-course culinary journey that rivals some of the best fine dining experiences out there. Each course was thoughtfully crafted, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented—it was clear the chef put effort into creating this menu.

The VIP experience went beyond just the food. The little extra attention from the staff made us feel so welcomed and cared for throughout the evening. Expect to spend about two hours savoring each course at a perfectly relaxed pace. Our server for the evening, Danika, was nothing short of amazing.

Dining in the outdoor dome was magical. With cozy heaters, warm blankets, and twinkling string lights above, the ambiance was enchanting and private. However, I wish there was some music outdoors or ambient music piped in. That would have made it even better.

If you’re looking for a memorable dining experience that blends exceptional cuisine with a unique and cozy setting, the Winter Lure Menu is an absolute must-try. Highly recommend!"

"My husband and I are staying at the hotel where this restaurant is located. We had dined here four times (two dinners and two breakfast / one dinner being room service). Everything we had we really liked. The wings were definitely one of our favourites. All three times we've been inside the restaurant the service was fantastic. Room service was great as well. They are very friendly and personable. We definitely recommend this restaurant."

Megan -Nicole

"Located inside the Marriott this place is beautiful, with an outside area with heaters, overlooking the port - for when the weather permits. The food is tasty and the service is good. Try the short rib tagliatelle, very creamy and flavorful, on the smaller side portion wise. We opted for the Mojito pitcher which was all juice, the recipe needs to be altered for sure. It’s the only thing we did not enjoy during our visit but had to mention. Our visit later to the bar was exceptional, good vibes, great service and lovely recommendations."

Restaurants in Victoria

A sunny patio, intimate balconies, and a wall of windows take in sweeping views across the Inner Harbour at this seaside spot in the Delta Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort. Casual mains and shared plates, such as local-brew battered halibut, maple bourbon pork ribs, and spiced-grilled Angus beef striploin, along with simple desserts with a twist (try vanilla cheesecake with pickled cherries) are served all day and into the evening. Creative cocktails, wines by the glass, beer tasters, sunset views, and a lively bar scene make this a great choice for a casual night out.

From its vantage point at the Delta Victoria Ocean Pointe Resort, Lure offers amazing views of the busy Inner Harbour. Seafood, fruits, vegetables, meats and dairy products are procured from local farmers and fishermen and the menu changes frequently based on what regional products are freshest. A recent menu included butternut squash-apple soup with pumpkin seed-sage pesto meringue; an amazing duck and pineapple tasting that featured foie gras with pineapple jelly and duck confit ravioli with pineapple chutney; seared rockfish with tempura honey mussels and a purple potato-caper-green bean salad; and panko-crusted house-smoked trout.
