   Nice setting facing the beach at Limetree Resort. There used to be lights on the beach which gave a nice evening view, but there were no lights on when we were there. Service was acceptable. Lanai salad was delicious, generous portion. Chicken fettucine was very good. Poke bowl with tuna was good, but there was not a lot of tuna, and the tuna could have used a little extra seasoning. Overall, a nice place for dinner.

   We went for happy hour. There was one other table in the restaurant. We had four items on the happy hour menu and we each had one cocktail. The bill for two people had a 20% gratuity added and came to over $90 for a happy hour deal. The food wasn’t great. The chicken was over fried and  the conch fritters were overdone as well. The service was pretty standard, but after we got our food, it took forever to get our bill and actually we never did. We had to go to the bar to finally ask for it. I would not recommend this place.

   Food is ok, not the best around but not bad… the view is amazing, especially the sunset so worth it. Also they have a kids menu what’s really good.

   New management since we were here last and they are testing out their menus and making renovations to the restaurant. We had burgers which were very good

   The service and food were both terrible. This is about the worst dining experience I’ve ever had. To be honest I don’t think someone could do worse… Uninterested served, dirty napkin (unwashed), chipped dishes… you name it! Save your money and time, go somewhere else.

   Peruvian Chicken was really tender with 2 large dark meat portions. The service was very good, particularly given the often-slower pace of many island restaurants. We sat along the rail and enjoyed the gentle sound of the surf nearby. We dined in the pre-season of early December, so make reservations in the busy winter months. My husband enjoyed his poke bowl with fresh tuna, and my son lapped up his lobster mac. Some of the protein in the lobster mac appeared to be shrimp, but overall, it was a good entree with more protein that some lobster macs that I have been served.

   The food was tasty but over priced. $22.00 for an Acai bowl served in small pineapple cut in half. I make the same at home for far less. Two shrimp tacos for $16.00 with two shrimp in each taco. Grant the server was very attentive and pleasant. The amazing ambience was interrupted by bold and somewhat aggressive and very off putting Iguanas.

   The food was not appetizing. The chef attempted to make a correction but it took too long

    Have dined here twice this week, as staying at Limetree resort. Both times service has been horrible, have been treated as an imposition on both visits! The ambiance and scenery is amazing, and food is decent, but staff all look as if they would rather be anywhere else. Last night our neighbors were turned away at 7:30 due to staffing issues, and were told they could order for take out only! Really disappointing for a resort of this caliber to have such a poorly run restaurant.
