Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Piedmont Heights

The chocolate cake and carrot cake were both excellent. Some of the best desserts we’ve had at a restaurant. Tanner was great!

We experienced the winter chalet. We loved the seating options and the cocktails (especially the espresso martini) were great and we also ordered the sliders and the gnocchi was amazing too.

I really enjoyed the omelette with butternut squash, spinach, onions, and whipped feta cheese. Also appreciated and took advantage of being able to order collards and black eyed peas for luck on New Year’s Day.

Excellent service! Like top quality. Food was really good. I prefer the yellow tail jalapeno at a different restaurant but Umi’s is very good. Love the lobster toban-yaki. Spider roll was yummy. Sake negiri also tasty. Chocolate bento box dessert was amazing. It’s pricey but we will return for special occasions.

My wife and I have been going to Lire for years. It has always been our go to for seafood. With the rebrand and relaunch we are even more impressed. The menu is fantastic with options that allows you to create your own experience or enjoy a family style exploration of a myriad of tastes. The service has been and continues to be top notch. On our latest visit Haspil was our server. He was very attentive and delivered excellent recommendations that we may not have selected on our own (the whipped feta was one of his recommendations and it was probably the best plate of the night). I highly recommend Lure Saltwater Kitchen for anything from everyday dining to special occasions or events.
