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.
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.

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!
Great place for their house curry chicken dish. I got that several times for takeout & it was certainly the star. I bit spicy, a bit rich, & quite filling. The coconut chicken soup isn't tangy like a tom kha, but it's good on a cold day - even better when you add the rice to it. The grilled chicken plate was alright, but I wish I had asked for some extra sauce. Overall yhey have great food here.
I have only tried their food through delivery service. Their red curry is absolutely delightful! I love it so much. It's close to my workplace but I'm so sad it's far away from my home.

We came here after the place we initially wanted nearby was full. I was disappointed at first but when we taste the food I was so happy we came. I got the vegetarian gyoza & house curry with shrimp. I usually don't like shrimp but this was so delicious!!! They have so many vegetarian options which surprised me. They had a high hair for my son too which was great. & he loved the food too!
Cuisine asiatique délicieuse! Ambiance conviviale, service rapide & efficace pour le lunch sur place ainsi que pour emporter. Excellent rapport qualité - prix! La soupe coco Thaïlandaise végé, le curry maison végétarien, les gyozas, la soupe Tonkinoise & les grillades maison aux vermicelles sont mes plats préférés.
The house curry with shrimp was very good. The portion was great & the price reasonable. I appreciated the 9 oz glass of wine. I will definitively return.

My favorite Asian restaurant & one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. I used to eat there a few years back & always had to ask which meals on the menu were vegan. One day, they hand me the menu & they added a whole Vegan section. I was so so so happy. It's amazing to have a whole section to pick from. The food is delicious. I love the tofu soup, curry rice dish & the spring rolls are the best in Montreal. Honestly, everything on the menu is good. It always hits the spot. The service is great. Lovely people. The decorations & atmosphere is cute. My only recommendation is maybe changing the music style. Lots of pop, rap & hip-hop & i'd love traditional music from Asia. The rap kind of takes you out of the vibe lol. 1000000% recommend. I come here multiple times a year.
First time at Lime & definitely won't be our last! Delicious Asian cuisine (fusion of Vietnamese, Korean & Chinese). The chicken curry was flavorful & delicious. The vermicelli bowl was a bit plain but still good. Can't go wrong with Saki ;) Service was quick & friendly. The staff are really nice & want to make sure you're taken care of. Parking is a bit tough so go early & definitely make a reservation! It can get pretty busy. The indoor decor is a bit outdated but the light music was nice. Definitely give Lime a try!
I had house special curry shrimp & Tao chicken both were good I highlight the freshness of the ingredients. The service was very good as well, they were very attentive. I liked the ambiance of the place.
