    They’ve changed their menu from seafood to tacos which was surprising but delicious. The service was incredibly fast and accurate for our group of 10.

    This is not the Lime In it used to be. It is now an outcropping of Lime Out. Any character or great food selections of the past are gone. It is a shell of the restaurant it used to be. Don’t waste your money - go to Lime Out if you want tacos or just bypass it all together for the other great selections in Cruz Bay.

    The service is very slow and our server didn't seem to hear half the things that we told her. The drinks while appear interesting in the description, were less so in actuality. For the first time on this trip, everyone left half their first drink. The server brought our soup at the same time as the taco that we ordered so we had to choose which one we wanted to get cold before eating . The clam chowder was like a clam stew with little broth. Everyone left at least a third of their taco(s). I clearly don't understand the hype over this restaurant. There is one saving grace for Lime Inn, it has a large vegan taco selection.

    Wasn’t sure of taco menu since we ate there 2 years ago with a different menu. But, it was excellent and we’ll be back soon!

    Took over 15 minutes for someone to come to the front host stand and acknowledge us, then another 10 minutes for the server to come over after we were seated. I understand "island time", but almost half an hour from the time we walked in until we were able to begin ordering was a bit long when we had a reservation. The food was very good, drinks were so so. Lime Out is better.
