    The food was stellar and the staff superb. The only tiny complaint we had was that the Christmas music--an oompa oompa constant unchanging beat for all songs that seemed like the back track to a video game--was actually pretty annoying. And I never complain about music!

    Such a welcoming and lovely place bathed in the colors of its name! Attentive service and wonderful food. The fish was fresh and the mango lassi one of the best we've ever had. Well-stocked bar, draft beer, good wines and lively vibe.

    We arrived 10 minutes before the restaurant opened, but they graciously seated us at a table and gave us water while we waited. All of the servers that work there are so kind and friendly. The buffet did not disappoint. They had an entire section that was vegan friendly.

    The manager made room for our party of 5 on a very busy Saturday night. The service staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, and the food&drink was outstanding.

    This was our first time at this Lime and Lemon location. The food was excellent! Our table had samosas, pakora, madras chicken curry, and shrimp biryani—all tasted very fresh and perfectly prepared. Service was great and the restaurant is lovely. We sat in a booth in the back, and conversation was very easy and comfortable, even when the restaurant filled up. One of our party has celiac and must be absolutely gluten-free. The staff were very knowledgeable and we felt very confident they were taking the right precautions. We will definitely return.

    The service was spectacular! The staff was very kind and attentive which made my dining experience very nice. It was my birthday, so they gave me ice cream and sang happy birthday to me which made me feel so special. The food was good and there was a good portion size, where I had some leftovers. 10/10 experience, I would recommend anyone to go here for dinner!

    One of the very best Indian restaurants we've ever eaten in - hands down! The menu includes many options from South Indian cuisine, as well as the more normal fare. We began with two appetizers - a spicy cauliflower dish and pillow -like Idli with three dips, amazing contrast of tastes and textures. We ordered a goat specialty, bindi (okra) masala and a spicy chicken dish - all superbly prepared, full of flavor and not oily in the least. The restaurant has a great cocktail list, excellent wine and beer lists as well, and the service was great. A special shout-out to our waiter, Kavin, who was gracious and gave us good recommendations. There were lots of different people there - groups of students, families, couples - which is completely understandable, since this is a fantastic, friendly place with extraordinary food. Highly recommended!
