ABSTRACT

For a tiny bistro that doesn’t take credit cards, Caffe Lure has managed to reel in some pretty big fish.

One reason it’s often packed to the gill is the menu, which brims with fresh seafood, eclectically prepared. The chefs, Robert Bonura and Anthony Labriola, met years earlier while training at the Culinary Institute of America. Two years ago, they pooled their resources and took over the cozy storefront from Jean-Claude Iacovelli. And the Village people (especially the biker guy) have been raving ever since.
