FANTASTIC. Excellent food. Service was off the charts. Great ambiance. Cannot wait to go again.

This place is DELISH! The female bartender gives great service too! Make sure to get their awesome ahi, it has so many wonderful flavors and textures-not to mention its looks like a beautiful masterpiece! I also got their pork chop and I finished all of it, sadly I had NO leftovers! The only thing I tried but didn't love was their key lime pie cheesecake, I didn't care for the crust and I left that one behind...

It had taken me awhile to get into this place. Was finally able to make a reservation on my wife's birthday. I liked the old school environment. Was seated in a booth which was nice. Ordered the ahi tuna appetizer which was very good. Loved the crunchy bits of sesame. My wife ordered the sea bass that we split. Also very good. We were not disappointed in the food, the service and the location. We will definitely be back

The Lime Lite has easily become one of my favorite local restaurants! I recently came in for my Birthday dinner and Josiah was our waiter again- fantastic waiter! We ordered: -garlic pub fries: not the crispiest and small-ish portion, but yummy 6/10 -butternut ravioli: can't go wrong with this one! Lots of Fresno's local restaurants have their own versions rn. 7/10 not my number 1, but it's up there. -Chilean sea bass: SO yummy! Thoroughly impressed. Fish was cooked to perfection- tender and moist. The sundried tomato and harissa tapenade were to die for. 10/10 -Parmesan crusted sole: loved it then, and love it now! 9.5/10 -LL prime rib: "good, kind of rare (ordered medium rare), however the mashed potatoes were good" -according to my bf. 8/10 -Wood fired ribeye: They were able to split the meal into two plates for my parents to share and it was still a nice sized portion! 9/10

The food was excellent. I world highly recommend if you're in the Fresno area. Service was amazing as well.

Lime Lite is the most consistent high-end restaurant in town. Never had a bad meal here. The filet was cooked perfectly and topped with the perfect amount of sauce. The whipped potatoes melt in your mouth and the broccolini is just right. Service is always a 10 and so is the ambiance with the Christmas decor. Love it here!

We recently celebrated my husband's birthday at Lime Lite and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. We love coming back and it's always nice seeing Clint. Our waiter, Josiah, truly went above and beyond to make the evening special. He was attentive, friendly, and made sure every detail was perfect. The food was phenomenal! My husband couldn't stop raving about the ribeye steak--it was cooked to perfection--and the bacon fried rice was a unique and delicious touch. I thoroughly enjoyed my fresh, flavorful salad. Every bite was a treat! Thank you to Josiah, for making this birthday dinner so memorable. We will definitely be back and will be recommending this place to everyone we know!

A favorite! Made a reservation for a Saturday night and glad we did. Have been hearing much about this place and sure enough, it was amazing. We came on two separate occasions. I enjoyed the vibes it gives me. Very chill and socially. Tried their specialities - prime rib, rib eye, pork chop, and Mary's chicken. All were very delish. For appetizers, we tried the surf and turf, fries, and calamari strip. Surf and turf were scrumptious. I really love the way it was prepared. It had became a favorite of mine. Drinks were amazing as well. Really love the midori sour. Services were prompt and attentive. Overall excellent food and service!

To go order review. Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our 8th year anniversary. Last time we had The Lime Lite was exactly the same date Oct 14 but in 2017 haven't really had the opportunity to go back since it's on the opposite of town from where we live and we now have 2 littles so it's been hard to randomly go on date nights especially on weekday/ work days. As I could recall our experience from 2017 was okay, I had a halibut dish that I enjoyed it and My husband, but boyfriend at the time had ordered a dish I can't quite remember but I did remember that his food wasn't the greatest and I felt bad. We've also had been keeping a generous gift card to this place that was given to us from our lovely neighbors almost 2 years ago. Came across it figured it was time to use it and what better occasion to use it than our anniversary. I called the restaurant a little after 6 PM and asked if I could place a takeout order the gentleman that I spoke to said yes and put me on a brief hold. Surely after kind lady took my order and said it would be about 15 to 20 minutes. My husband and I ordered from the specialty menu. I had the parmesan crusted sole which came with whipped potatoes, garlic sautéed spinach, lemon caper beurre blanc. My husband ordered the wood fire ribeye (rare) which came with roasted ponzu bacon brussel sprouts, truffle potatoes, garlic butter. My husband picked up and the order was ready around the timeframe. They said it would. When he arrived home, the food was still nice and warm and they also gave us complimentary bread. My order was delicious the fish was so good and had the perfect crunch. The lemon caper beurre blanc was phenomenal I could just drink it lol. The Sides were also perfect. The mashed potatoes or so creamy and soft. My husband also enjoyed his order. His ribeye was cooked perfectly rare and it was so tender. The only thing we weren't huge fans of were the butter that came with the complementary bread. It almost tasted as if it had ginger, which is a bit odd. But overall the food was delicious! Everything was perfect to celebrate such a special occasion!

Came here as they opened on a Tuesday. Had a reservation but at 5 p.m. they aren't too busy. Very attentive and great service here. We sat on their cute patio which is more cheery and bright than the inside seating. Firstly, their bread is amazing. Warm with a whipped butter that tasted like a hint of rosemary in it. Honestly, this was the highlight for me. My husband ordered the burger and fries, which was good as usual. His fries had a lot of garlic on them, which I liked! I ordered the Chilean sea bass. The fish itself had a slight fishy taste. It had a nice harissa sauce on top which had a great taste and so helped hide the fishy taste of the fish. Unfortunately, there was no taste in the rice or vegetables on the bottom. If I am having a plain white fish it would be nice to have something along with it that had a big flavor punch. The plain sushi rice underneath was not for me. However, I have had the fried chicken here last time I was here, and it was good. All in all, this place is great for date night or a quiet romantic dinner out. Just wouldn't recommend the sea bass.
