Awesome drinks. Great vibe.
Awesome place. Top notch bartenders and very personable all with a great atmosphere. We had the best time here!
The drink was awesome nice place amazing bartenders. Terrible DJ he only plays music for himself... no one was on the dance floor everyone hanging around cos of bad but he didn't seem to car. Plus when I tried to plead with him to take a music request he blatantly told me “ we don't take music requests because we don't have Internet†what a joke.... as as he was entertained he didn't care about the crowd smh. Wouldn't recommend this place if u wanna listen to some bangers and dance. 👎 👎

Best Hacky Sack patio in the East village!!!
Cool hangout spot for those of you tryna pop one off after a long week at the 9-5. People are dying to get in. Happy hour beers come with a free shot to the face.
I just moved to Des Moines and have lived in several different cities around the US and the world. I have been dancing salsa, merengue, bachata, cumbia, and more since I was a young girl. Let me first start off by saying that this place has potential but management needs to make some fixes. The music for salsa night on Thursday's was a really poor selection. The DJ played no variety what so ever. It was a lot of bachata ( like four songs in a row) then slow salsa songs ( like four in a row). And not good salsa songs. It did not feel like an upbeat spot. Music at salsa clubs should have variety, different cultures, and really feel like a party. When I requested to the dj maybe play some upbeat songs like regatí³n to get the girls dancing he said I dont play that kind of music this early. He continued to not feel the crowd but play the music he wanted. Theres a reason its a bunch of young men and not a lot of women. Music makes the environment and this DJ needs more variety and needs to tailor his music to the crowd. His music had Absolutely NO FLAVOR. I don't think he's a dancer either because anyone who truly dances would not play music so bland and monotonous. There is no wonder the reviews are poor. When you go to an amazing salsa club you will see a mixture of ages, cultures, and the music plays everything from Salsa beats to African, Merengue, and more. This club has none of that. Overall Don't WASTE your time.
My husband drives for Lyft sometimes for extra income and got a ride placed from Lime Lounge. This is around last call on a Wednesday night. When he arrives the doorman literally carries and throws this extremely incoherent intoxicated man into the passenger seat of our vehicle. They usher in another really drunk man who can barely walk into the middle seat of the vehicle. The one man who was thrown into the car by the doorman vomits all over himself and the seat almost immediately upon being thrown into the vehicle. Both men seemed to have been over-served. The one man could barely talk, the man who vomited was unresponsive afterwards. He managed to get them back to the location, only to find out that the two man might not have known each other well or at all. The man who was unresponsive woke up upon reaching the other passengers destination to mumble repeatedly that he wanted to just go home but was too intoxicated to explain where that was. My husband ended up having to leave him there not knowing what else to do for him. Ultimately we had concluded that these patrons were over-served and lime lounge booked the Lyft to dump the problem on someone else's hands. Now my husband has to go the next morning to get our vehicle detailed and cleaned and is out $50, for a $5 fare. He is going to contact this establishment for complaint but I have my doubts that they will reimburse him for this disgusting and negligent situation they threw him into. Ontop of all of this, I am going into the hospital the day after to have an induction to delivery our second child and we need said vehicle to get me there. So we had to get the vehicle detailed immediately and promptly the next day which is the last thing we should have to worry about. In all, if you don't want to go to a place that might throw you into a random vehicle with a complete stranger and send you to a place your unfirmilar with when you decide to over-do drinking for the night or because an establishment doesn't know how to cut someone off before alcohol poisoning, dont go here...

Good music, drinks are awesome. Lovely bartenders.
Tuesday bingo night is a blast and this place is great on the weekends! Love!
Very misogynistic owner. Overpriced, I would consider this a ruffie type of club. With that being said ladies watch your drinks for you're safety and wellbeing. All together just a bad time. Spent as long as I could stand it. 45 min..
I have been to Lime Lounge several times and have always had great service. They have amazing mojitos with fresh fruit and sugar cane. I also enjoy all of the drink specials.
Great drinks, friendly staff and good music.
