Lime Fresh
Mexican Grill
On a recent
trip to South Beach we tried a wonderful and fun restaurant
worthy of going to weekly for a quick and healthy bite. That
restaurant is Lime Fresh Mexican Grill and they currently
have South Florida locations in Miami Beach, Pembroke Pines, and
soon Coconut Creek/Coral Springs. Lime is also affordable with
everything well under $10. The fresh ingredients will make your
mouth water and the ambiance of a Mexican Cantina will make you
wonder why there isn’t a Mariachi band walking through.
I would
recommend if you are in the mood for something spicy, and
Chipotle seems like the answer, then go with the Southwest
Salad that has marinated grilled chicken on a bed of fresh
greens piled high with bacon, black bean corn salsa, tomatoes
and carrots topped with crispy tortilla strips. Oh, did I forget
to mention that it is served with a side of chipotle-honey lime
dressing and a crispy tostada? The salads are served i a huge
wooden bowl. They also have a Taco Salad with a side of
spicy ranch dressing or a Fajita Salad that has a creamy
cilantro dressing and a crispy tostada.
I had the
signature Lime Burrito with grilled steak, beans,
shredded jack and cheddar cheese, sour cream and fresh lettuce
but I want to get more adventurous next time and try the
Fajita Platter and hear it sizzle (I did from the next table
over and was drooling.) The tacos come in a three pack
that save a little dinero and they'll mix them up one with
steak, one ground beef and one chicken for a small up-charge. We
also like the quesadillas that come in either chicken, fish or
shrimp. Try the shrimp!
Like most of
the restaurants in this genre of dining, there's an all you can
eat home made salsa bar with several styles of mild to
wildly hot salsa and Pico de Gallo. Unlike the rest,
there is a bar with more brands and varieties of hot sauce than
I've ever seen. A brilliant idea for us hot sauce connoisseurs.
With Cinco de
Mayo approaching, you should definitely consider dropping
by Lime Fresh Mexican Grill if you haven’t already! Viva la
Raza!
