Lime & Lemon Indian Grill & Bar - Durham

Delicious food with an expansive menu that can accommodate a variety of dietary restrictions. Everything was beautifully plated and it felt like a really special meal. The drinks were also 🔥🔥🔥10/10, would return!

I have been a loyal customer of Lime and Lemon for years, always enjoying their à la carte dinner and recommending it to friends. However, my recent visit to their Sunday buffet was a huge letdown, and I feel compelled to share my experience. A party of seven, including me, came in eager to try their buffet based on a tempting menu flyer. Unfortunately, the food was far from what I had come to expect. Here's a breakdown: - The Crab Masala was inedible - overly salty and unappetizing. - The Filter Coffee Mousse was overwhelmingly sweet, to the point it felt like poison. - Both the Chicken and Mutton curries were overcooked. - The Kara Pakoras were doughy and undercooked inside. - The Chicken Tandoori had uneven cooking, with some pieces still raw. - To top it off, the buffet wasn't properly maintained, and many of the hot dishes were lukewarm at best. When I provided feedback about the quality of the dishes, the servers' only response was, “I'll let the chef know.” No further action was taken, and no one came to address my concerns personally. I had hoped the chef would come to listen and discuss the issues since I was speaking about facts I was experiencing firsthand. That said, there were a couple of bright spots: - The Live Appams were fresh and delicious, a real highlight of the buffet. - We celebrated a birthday, and the restaurant brought out two complimentary ice creams (Pista and Mango) with candles and a “Happy Birthday” message. These ice creams were fantastic and helped salvage some of the experience. Overall, this visit was very disappointing, especially after having such positive experiences with the à la carte menu in the past. The quality of food and service during the buffet was subpar, and it's clear that there was little attention paid to maintaining the standards I've enjoyed before. I hope Lime and Lemon will take the necessary steps to improve their buffet offerings.

Food was great and had a very authentic taste. Everyone was so nice and helpful, including Anand who was very personable and explained the dishes well.

All of my favorite Indian dishes in one place!! I decided to try Lime and Lemon for my self care Friday, and it did not disappoint. My waiter Anand was amazing and he was very thorough with offering recommendations and options. I ordered a spicy mushroom appetizer, the avocado and cheese dosa and goat Chittinad. They were all cooked to perfection. I’m used to the masala dosa, but this was an interesting twist that kind of reminded me of me of a quesadilla. They had paratha bread that is cooked to perfection. It was nice having the option of multiple regions of India in one place. Will definitely come back for another self-care day. Also, the food is fairly affordable. I was expecting to pay more for the amount of food I received.

A fantastic atmosphere and bar with fantastic service. Morris treated us to a great meal and all the food was tender, flavorful and filling. I could not ask for a better dinner.

The food is phenomenal here! I recommend the Chef special mango lime paneer (mango is not overpowering). And the cocktails are so fresh!! Everyone, including Morris, is so kind and offers recommendations! Cannot recommend this place enough!

Our server was Ravi, who was very patient and had excellent recommendations. The food was delicious and our server in particular made the experience very enjoyable.

We went to this restaurant for the first time, it was great. The food and service was really good. The drinks were so creative :) our server Morris was very personable and provided good recommendations. We will be back.

Great place with great food! We have been a few times and really enjoy exploring their extensive menu. Ravi was our server this time and he was attentive and gave good recommendations. We will be back.

The food was amazing and the service was great. The menu was fully customizable and careful consideration was given to those with food allergies.

Food was delicious and the service was excellent. I will definitely go back. There were several families of Indian descent who had just come from the Duke University graduation with their graduates in tow. Says a lot about the quality of the food here that families would choose to eat here after such an important event.

Lime & Lemon Indian Grill is our go-to spot for all our catering needs! We had catering done this past weekend, and the food was absolutely incredible! The naans were super soft, the flavors were spot-on, and the service was top-notch from beginning to end. The food was from the Chapel Hill location. They also accommodated our dietary restrictions, like no onion or garlic, and they nailed it! They arrived on time and were super well-prepared! They also took care of all the details throughout the event and helped with everything towards the end. It was a huge relief to know that we could trust someone from start to finish. I highly recommend Lime and Lemon for all your catering needs. Ravi, thank you for always providing excellent service and amazing food.

Best food and service!!! Menu meets all dietary restrictions. Something on the menu for absolutely everyone!

Delicious & Amazing. Strongly recommend this great restaurant for the food and atmosphere.

We ate outside and the experience was great. Everyone thought that the food was excellent. The service was great.
