As a long time patrons of Lume Inn, I am missing a finer dining experience. Tacos are excellent, but noise level, fast food feel is not enjoyable not at $16.00 per taco more or less. I am sure they are searching for a younger crowd.

We were seated a bit early due to our early arrival. Water and drink orders were promptly taken and delivered. The passion cocktail was delicious and unique. Bean dip and guac appetizers were flavorful and fresh. Homemade tortilla chips! They have a taco tasting menu if all want to order that. We had plenty of food with quesadilla, shrimp and grouper and pork tacos. Lively place close to downtown and the ferry landing. The most interesting taco menu ever!

So not what it was 2 years ago, if you think 13.00 a taco is cool then this is your place. 2 years ago it was a real restaurant with a tasting menu with options other than a taco. Just not good, great spot that someone with some restaurant knowledge could thrive in, so disappointed, wish they would have let folks know before we dropped $150.00 for 4 tacos, 3 drinks and tip…never going back

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.
