Reviews highlight Lime Griffintown as a vibrant, generous fusion spot for Vietnamese and Thai flavors, with pho and tom yum among the favorites and a growing menu that includes vegan options and poke bowls. The food is praised for depth of flavor, freshness, and large portions, with many dishes such as the Vietnamese claypot salmon and various curries getting especially strong notes for balance and aroma. The atmosphere is described as bright, casual, and modern, while the service is consistently friendly, attentive and efficient. Takeout and delivery are reliable, offering generous portions and good value, though a few diners note prices can run higher than some alternatives. A couple of critiques mention the General Tao being too sweet or some dishes not being as tender as hoped, but these are outweighed by broad satisfaction with the overall quality. Overall Lime Griffintown is seen as a neighborhood gem worth returning to for reliable, flavorful Southeast Asian fusion and a menu that pleases both meat lovers and vegetarians.
Restaurant is clean & has a nice decor. Got myself some Pho & it was very flavourful. Prices check out for the area the restaurant is in. I'll definitely be coming back :))
A great tiny restaurant in Griffintown that really offers a fusion of Asian food. The restaurant is well lit with beautiful intricate food plates all over the wall :) The staff is super kind, attentive, & hard working & truly care about their customers. I had the Vietnamese Claypot salmon & it just melted in my mouth & was beyond delicious. Thai chicken Curry was just as tasty with the perfect blend of spices. We also ordered General Chicken Tao as an extra & it was crispy & awesome. A 10/10 & I know next time I will be ordering the papaya salad, Mango salad along with shrimp egg noodles. Highly recommend this 11/10 restaurant to everyone ❤?❤? UPDATE: Went back & had Vietnamese Coffee, Shrimp Tempura, Beef Vietnamese Grill, & General Tao & as always fantastic food & service 😇😇 Full compliments to the chef for such a gourmet's delight 🙏🙏

Although I haven't dined in yet , I am regularly ordering a delivery from Lime. Loved the Maison Vegan Curry & the Tom Yum Noodle Soup. Very aromatic & flavorful & feels healthy too. Not too oily or too spicy & provides the right mix to enjoy the multitude of flavors presented. Portion sizes were generous for takeout. A tad bit on the higher side of the price range but is definitely worth it. Looking to get the dine in experience soon. Highly recommend the place.
Pour ceux qui esite entre un gros bol de soupe ou un repas.je vs suggère de prendre la mini soupe au poulet à 6$ & très généreuse suivi d un plat..trop bon
Called this restaurant to ask about cross-contact for celiac disease, since they have many items marked as gluten-free. They told me they don't accommodate allergies & when I asked if they can use clean tools or clean surfaces for someone with celiac or wheat allergy they said no they won't do that. Anyone with gluten, wheat or other allergies for that matter should avoid this establishment & this restaurant should consider removing the gluten-free markings from their menu as this is very unsafe for people with severe allergies.
Update : Nous y sommes venu un peu moins de 10 fois en 2 ans! Toujours incroyable, saveurs incroyables, quantités titanesques ( nous sommes de très gros mangeurs, & le curry on peine à le finir!) beaucoup de viande, de riz, de sauce, de légumes.
On recommande 100 fois! Surtout pour le prix!
I have tried their general tao twice. While the sauce was good, it was excessively sweet even for me who likes sweet things. Also, the chicken nuggets contain more dough than chicken, which is a big disappointment, I'd like to feel like I'm getting some nourishment here, not just sugar dough. I really like that the chicken is crispy & that they mix in a good amount of veggies though. If they just reduced the sugar & put more chicken in the dough it could be 5 stars.

Le Poulet général Tao, miam ! Sur place, l'ambiance n'est pas incroyable, c'est simple. En revanche je ne suis jamais déçue. Le service est simple & efficace.
This restaurant is falsely advertising fraudulent Buy One, Get One (BOGO) deals on Uber Eats. On the restaurant's listing, a General Tao chicken is listed at $21.95 CAD, & the BOGO for the same item is listed at $38.25 CAD. In reality, by taking this'deal' (which literally has BOGO in its name, as photo & video evidence taken by me will show), you are buying two individual General Tao chicken dishes for about 13% less of what buying two at $21.95 CAD would cost you. This is not Buy One, Get One free, rather the restaurant attempting to take advantage of promotional offers around holidays, during a recession, to make more money. In reality, you are saving a whopping 5.65 CAD!
If the restaurant owner wanted to save you money & increase sales, they could use Uber Eats' discount function to make individual items cheaper. Instead, they are eroding the mutually beneficial nature of a real BOGO: customer gets a good deal, restaurant avoids throwing out food.
Dishonesty does not stop at the kitchen door; avoid this restaurant.
Even though the prices are a bit more expensive than the alternative options that serve the same type of food, the price is still reasonable & the portions are good. The food itself was flavourful & tasty. Some parts of the grilled chicken weren't as tender as I would have hoped for it to be but the overall was still great.
Eating at the restaurant had was such a different experience. The waitress was really friendly & polite which made the dining experience even better. The food itself was flavorful & plentiful. The portions were so big for around 19$ a meal. I was a bit deceived by the pictures since the food wasn't as pretty but it was still tasty.
