Chef May Yong and her team welcome you to Lure, a distinctive, modern Californian Seafood Bistro located in the heart of downtown San Mateo.  Join us for intimate evenings of distinctive dining in a sleek and seductive setting that captures and showcases the beauty and integrity of the Chef’s craft.  Enjoy some of the Bay Area’s best seafood and seasonal market produce in dishes that are inspired by yet challenge traditional preparations from the world’s great Coastal Cuisines.  Lure celebrates the agricultural bounty of Northern California and the Bay Area by highlighting local produce.  We are also committed to sourcing sustainable seafood and line caught fish.

Our suggestion. . . . start with Humboldt Bay Kumamoto oysters with just a kiss of lemon, savor ruby slices of Big Eye Tuna with pluot and ginger confit, then allow your palate to travel farther across the Pacific to sample plump, tender mussels bathed in green coconut cream, fragrant with lemongrass and galangal.  At Lure, you will experience dishes that are both delicate and pronounced, unexpected and memorable.  We look forward to your visit.
