    About Lime Fresh Mexican Grill

    If you've eaten at Lime Fresh Mexican Grill, it is easy to see what sets us apart from the rest. Our fresh food prepared daily, homemade salsas, more than 50 hot sauces and our high-end decor gives guests the casual-style atmosphere with fast-casual convenience that they can't seem to get enough of. Lime has never lost sight of its fresh focus as it expands. All locations have fresh produce delivered daily from local markets and its meats are charbroiled on grills in an exhibition-style kitchen. Guests also have the option of making their meal with whole wheat, multi-grain or low-carb items. Lime's stores are outfitted with Chicago brick and hammered copper countertops, and earth-tone fax-finish walls adorned with custom dark hard wood trim and hanging lime baskets. Entrepreneurs are often attracted to Lime because of its consistent lines out the door, fresh food, atmosphere and over-the-top guest service, all of which has made Lime a favorite since 2004.
