LURE Seafood Restaurant & Bar– Viewrific
March 11, 2008 | Tips from Us > Victoria, Dining Victoria, Dining
Being the youngest of eleven children, food (and mealtime in particular), has always been competitive and somewhat of a contact sport for me. I research, I sniff out, I long for a gastronomic experience not exactly like ones I‘ve had in the past. Last Friday I found a gem of a place called LURE, located just across the Johnson Street bridge from downtown Victoria Delta Ocean Pointe Resort . Both their lounge and dining room have, in my opinion, one of the best views in the city. Our table looked straight across the harbour to the Fairmont Empress and Parliament Buildings .
The crab-stuffed salmon roulade followed by a tender lamb shoulder prepared me well for one of the naughtiest chocolate desserts I’ve had in a long time. Had I not had that last glass of wine, I could probably tell you the name of it. Just ask the server for the dessert with the word “sin” in it. He/she’ll know what you mean.
Whether you are just stopping in for a drink or decide to sample the quality fare, LURE is definitely worth a visit. Tip: if you go at night, you’ll see the Parliament Buildings lit up!
