Came here to see a couple of bands. Was pleasantly surprised by the size if the stage and the dance floor/party pit area. The sound system was superb. Beer prices were very reasonable. Plenty of parking. Had never heard of this place before, bit will definitely be back.

My partner and I went here for lunch while waiting for her car to be serviced and wow was this place a treat and a half! Prices were beyond reasonable for the quantity AND quality of food we received. Everything packed a flavorful punch, the staff was incredibly friendly, and the bar wasnt super crowded or rowdy. Best dish was the pretzel sticks - that beer cheese rocked!

Came for All you can eat Crab on thursday evening :) Staff was awesome! Super attentive and there wasn’t a single moment our table of 4 were waiting on a crab refill. We couldn’t stay for trivia, but they do that at 7pm as well :)My friends also ate probably way too much of their chowder which, to be fair, was delicious.Definitely recommend coming here!Also fyi it is a 21+ only place, so no bringing the kiddos to eat unlimited crab unfortunately

Great place to go with friends to eat, drink, shoot pool, or throw darts. A nice sports bar that wasnt terribly crowded during the early evening, but definitely started to pick up later on. It is normally packed on the weekends and they sometimes have bands playing live music.

Had an AMAZING time at The Lime!!! People here are energetic and friendly - I made so much friends! Didnt experience any ruckus. I saw La Divas performance, they brought the party with their great band and music. I would totally see them again! The Lime have paid darts, gambling tickets and billiards. Food is great too, I recommend the steak bites, corn dog bites and fries. My go to drink is the manis and coke whiskey. The security and bouncers are attentive in scanning all people entering and dancing at the dance floor. I find this place a safe and fun hang out place.

Loved the atmosphere 👌 😍 great sports environment which includes multiple big screen TVs and pool tables. Thursday night all you can eat Crab legs special was delicious. I commend the servers for their skills - attention to customers, swift delivery of food and drinks 🍸 looking forward to another impromptu visit

Great vibes food and drinks. They always have live music on Friday and Saturday. Just heads up finding parking on the weekends can be a bit challenging in the plaza.

Imagine deciding to come here and wake up the next morning realizing you may have been drugged. Then calling every single day trying to speak to the manager leaving messages expressing what happened and trying to understand the night, but the manager won’t even give you a simple call back! How good a place is, is not only about how yummy the food is or drinks, it’s also about the common decency of safety and service offered to the very same people who take your money and serve you. Honestly extremely disappointed in this place and wish I never chose to go here. It has significantly changed my life.

I like to get nachos and burgers here. Then I watch Ufc events. I dont come here for anything else.You should consider reserve seating for ufc events or expect to stand up.Food is reasonably priced and tastes well.Staff are usually pretty cool. Smoking areas outside and adequate parking.

Friends from Seattle took me here for a late breakfast. We walked up to the door and went inside. It was so sunny and warm outside that I was hesitant to enter the dark, gloomy bar. But I was so glad I did!!!!!! The food was outstanding! Eveyones food at the table looked good. The Bloody Marys were excellent. There was no wait for a table, and the waitstaff was very accommodating. My new favorite place.

I met a friend there for drinks. We ended up ordering Nacho appetizers, wings, and pretzel bites with cheese dipping sauce. The Nachos are delicious, chicken wings a bit on the salty side, and the pretzels were really good. The atmosphere is awesome we played trivia. Our Bartender is amazing, friendly , and knowledgeable about drinks. I had Gran-Marnier on the rocks. We didnt know arlt the time there is all you can eat Dungeness Crab on Thursdays, so we will be back!!! And you can play pool!! Nice crowd.

Such a fun spot for Karaoke and Live music during the week! Honestly might have the best happy hour on the east side of any restaurant. Staff is always upbeat and friendly and food portions are pretty good. Beer selection is super solid as well. There are pool tables and tons of TVs. I recommend getting a table early for any big games or on nights they have live music!

Always a good time here. This is the place that my friends and I go to in Kirkland when we want to hang out and not be confined to a table such as at a restaurant. The staff is amazing and the food delicious. Highly recommend this place for the weekly dinner specials such as Prime Rib, or All You Can Eat Crab! Plus they have free live bands on the weekends!

Destiny is the most incredible waitress and bartender, she always lights up my evening when I get to see her. She always has a smile on her face and a positive attitude. She makes killer drinks and has a killer attitude. Make sure you get seated in her section you won’t be disappointed 💕 thanks for always being the best Destiny!

Honestly a very good time, I sat at the bar… I did ask a waitress for a box while the bartender was busy and she was literally just standing there talking.., was told to ask him… insert EXTRA over the top smirk. We still be back, if there’s bar sitting.

My wife and I went to the lime today, my lunch experience was a pleasant surprise. As I stepped into the dive bar, I was immediately taken by its expansive layout and the lively atmosphere created by multiple TVs airing various games. It seemed like the perfect spot to unwind during a busy night.I ordered the half-pound garlic Sriracha wings and fish n chips, I found both dishes to be solid choices. While the wings were decent, as expected for a dive bar, they still packed a flavorful punch with the garlic Sriracha seasoning. The fish n chips exceeded my expectations with their crispy batter and tender fish. Normally I don’t like panko style fish n chips but this was pretty good.Although I didnt anticipate much from a dive bar, I was genuinely happy with the quality of the food I received. Its clear that The Lime takes pride in offering satisfying fare to its customers. Im already looking forward to returning to explore more of their menu, particularly the sandwiches and other tempting options. Overall, The Lime proved to be a fun and satisfying lunch spot, and I cant wait to come back for more.

Food is good, we had fish and chips, portion size was good for the price. We were there on a Saturday 11 ish, they seemed short staffed, one bartender did everything there was a woman there that did not help much, not sure what that was about. Overall, a good place.Ive come to realize online prices are VERY different than actual pricing 😖

I had two shots of patron. It was $36! Not including tip. $18 per shot. I informed the manager to tell the owner, that he or she is stealing. A 1.75L is only $89.99 at Total Wines right now. You do the math. Could have had sushi dinner where someone cuts up the food, prepares it, etc. Instead, I had 2 second pour out of a bottle. No place I have ever been charged that much for patron shots.I asked the manager is he sure this price is right. Instead of saying yes or no, they avoided me.I use to spend money here weekly, but this was a terrible experience.I will spend my money where the staff deserve good prices so they can earn larger tips.

This place has a decent beer selection and the bar seemed fully stocked with liquor for any drink. Lots of TVs for sports and quite a few pool tables. The stage has a great lighting and sound system - its a fantastic Eastside place for music.

Review №32

I tried to meet a friend from out of town who told me he had a table already. When I arrived I noticed there was a line and a door man. I went to the doorman to inquire about getting in since my friend had a table. He immediately treated me like I was trying to sneak in or lie to him. He immediately said everyone here has a friend inside with a table, back of the line. I was taken aback by this since I was trying to find out from him what I was supposed to do. I waited in line for about 10 minutes and then my friend came out to get me. We tried to walk inside and the man stopped me and was again rude saying that I was trying to sneak in (even though I was walking straight into the front door). He made me go to the back of the line again where I waited in the cold for 20 more minutes until I got in. Then it was a 30 minute wait to get a beer. The people were just running into me a bunch and being rowdy. It was smelly and humid inside. Its a typical dive bar that thinks its a nightclub. Its a pretty awful place. Ill never go again and Ill be warning everyone I know not to go there.

I recently visited “The Lime”, it exceeded all my expectations! The atmosphere was lively and inviting, with friendly staff ready to assist at every turn. The song selection was vast, covering all genres and eras, ensuring there was something for everyone.Not to mention, The Lime itself had a great selection of delicious food and alcohol drinks to keep our energy up throughout the night. The food was tasty, and the drinks were refreshing, creating the perfect karaoke session fuel.

Review №38

Looking for fun? Do not come here unless you like to be treated like dirt. Service is lacking from a personality standpoint. People seem to have a chip on their shoulder. And by people, Im speaking specifically to the bartenders, and the servers. Not kidding - I got water three times as I was the designated driver, and in each time it took me 25-30 minutes waiting in line to get it. No exaggeration! The bar only serves a single line with three bartenders taking turns with the line Q and they are slow as molasses. That was the average wait time for any drink in asking the people that I was standing in line with. Think of how much revenue theyre losing? Next there are waitresses that will come to your table if you can make eye contact to grab their attention (good luck) but the place was SO OVER CROWDED (fire code?) the poor servers are trying to squeeze through the hordes of people and to prevent their drinks from spilling they scream at their top of their lungs to get out of their way as its your fault that you are standing where you are standing and also giving you a dirty look. On their way back, they move through the crowd like a bull in a glass shop, almost purposely bumping into people to make a point. This is their bar and get the f out of their way. These two experiences combined ruined our time at this bar.

The Lime! Squeeze out extra fun at this neighborhood feel good venue. Drinks are well poured! The bartenders friendly, especially Calvin, sending out good vibes as they hustle behind the bar. I like how lots of locals go and made a newcomer like me feel welcome. The regulars tolerate a knucklehead like me having a good time. A weekly variety mixes up the program. Friday, Saturday and Sunday night live music. Taco Tuesdays. Pool tables allow you to people watch. Wednesday karaoke has some fun regulars. All and all a great place to find in a strip mall setting. Ive had so much fun there alone and with friends. Met new friends that have made life a little more fun!

We went to The Lime for the Gobblefest event to raise money for Northwest Harvest. The place was packed because of a Husky game but I have to say that our server John was probably top 10 in my life. This guy watched our table and stopped by at just the right moment. I would highly recommend going to the Lime for the next event especially watching a game.

I worked the last 6 days in a row and was looking forward all week to the prime rib at the Lime . I ordered the prime rib medium rare with vegetables. The prime rib came out medium and cold with salad and not vegetables. When I walked in I was hoping to sit at the bar as I was alone, and was looking for a seat when the bartender asked me for my order. I gave her my order and then told her I would be sitting at the table in the corner as there were no available seats at the bar. The server on the floor would not acknowledge me and asked everyone around me how they were doing except for me. It was awful. I felt mistreated and ignored. I think she was trying to punish me because I ordered and paid for my food at the bar. I would have liked to explain to her my disappointment with my prime rib, and order a drink but she never once checked on me. The service and food were disappointing. I cannot recommend the experience at the Lime. 😞

I am from out of town and was craving good bar food. Nobody tipped me off to The Lime just googled bars near where I was and picked this joint. Could not of been happier with my choice. Food was great, great price but it was the service that was the highlight. Ashlyn was on her game to say the least. Great service, funny, and so personable. The Lime is lucky to have her!

We like to grab A. Happy? Hour. A? Couple. Of times a month.usually? Around. Payday. Weve gone to a number of different places in . anywhere from a little to a bunch. But we found the lime last weekend.To be honest, when you first walk in the door, youre a little hesitant.this is in every way a bar. Dark walls dark tables dark floors.but then this bright and shining little server comes up. She was doll.We ordered the sampler platter off the bar menu, and I had a Manhattan . We walked out of there, and our total bill was less than $25, including tip and tax.So Yay! you say. So they have cheap food, but it was really good. It was good fried bar food; greasy, very crunchy, and we loved every bit of it. Well go back.Oh. We did go back. The next day, we went to breakfast.Im getting so tired of going out to breakfast and spending $40-plus. Breakfast at The Lime runs anywhere between $9-$12 a plate. And it was good.The coffee was good, which is rare. Because frankly, most breakfast joint coffee is awful. Well be back. Well done, Lime people.

To me, this place exudes a rustic charm of a rock club. Here, youll encounter first-rate bands that will tickle your funny bone, along with warm-hearted locals who ensure a welcoming atmosphere. And once youve danced your heart out, you can savor delectable cuisine that adds to the overall enjoyment of your experience.

Pretty much impossible to watch a Champions League final. Can not even turn the sound on. If you want to watch any decent game – pick a different place. Any competition, any performance?

Bar that has a little but of everything! They have great live music, a dance floor along with pool tables and several seating options to encourage mingling.

The bar staff are what really make this place special! They are generally super busy but still super friendly...and they always remember your name and your beverage of choice.Its also a nicely laid out joint with a big stage considering its size.

Went on a Saturday night around ten PM. They had a bouncer out front who checked ID and they didnt make me or my friends wear a mask when inside.The place was decently packed, mostly people in their late 20s and 30s. Music was good, classic rock, they had a small area opened up as a dance room but at that time most people were still chilling at the tables. Theyve got a few pool tables as well. Food is decent and arrives quickly.Got a beer at $5 so not too bad in that department either.

Review №75

A big group of us planned to be there for the amazing 80’s cover band, Mixdate Prom Date. Everyone was looking forward to this event for weeks. We showed up and to our surprise, the venue had also booked a UFC showing. Talk about the owners being greedy for money. Who in their right mind would schedule two big events in one night. After standing outside in the cold for a very long time, we went in and you could barely move. It was standing room only. The waitress did come up to us and she was very friendly. We ordered some drinks and stood there waiting until 9:30 pm. Band was to start at 9:00 pm. No signs of that. We decided to leave feeling very disappointed and a small group of us went elsewhere nearby where we had a great time. We also witnessed other people leaving. The venue looked like a fun place but that was a very bad call by the owners. I also feel bad for the band because we have seem them before and they are amazing. Needless to say, most of us will probably never return. Owners, don’t be so greedy for money that you scare away new customers.

My first time here to meet a friend and was one of a few places in the area open late. The parking is easy, there bar was clean as well as the bathrooms. They had Karaoke night which who knows is a hit or miss, not the Lime issue just the singers..lol The drinks where spot on and we ordered food that arrived fast and well displayed..Nachos and spring rolls. Now the about the spring rolls...They literally made our heads roll..So good!! I def recommend The Lime to any one who wants a casual place to meet friends or just go for a drink and be social with others. The Lime in my book is my go to, when Im in Kirkland!!

We decided to go for a girls brunch over at the Lime. We kinda ordered most of the food in the appetizers section - Pulled pork sliders, chicken tenders, mozz bread, bacon wrapped prawns and a sample platter.The food was not that great, just greasy and bland. The drinks were average and cocktails were very light. We had to order a side of alcohol to make it stronger.The crowd was pretty less, just a bunch of older men and 1-2 couples.. A very silent and bland bar for a Saturday.Average place to visit and would not recommend for the food.

Review №96

It was Beatles tribute night the night we went....really good band. The food was not your average bar fare. We had several of the appetizers along with the fish n chips..all were fantastic. The wait staff was almost too attentive...and I say almost because Im not used to that kind of service when Im in a bar. We never had to ask for another drink, it was just a simple yes or no as to whether or not we were ready for another. The layout was well planned for the venue...seating for the show was separated from the gaming area by tall tables and bar stools..separating the pool tables and video games from the main floor with.pull tabs in the corner in its own area...and still giving everyone a great view of the stage...Overall I would say it was a great night spent with a good friend and several new ones we met that night. Definitely a A+ from me..

Nice spot. Visited it when it was Balls n Whistles and it seems to have improved. The bartender Kira was awesome. She was good about getting more drinks for me and my friends when we made ourselves known that we wanted to get a new drink without making us wait overly long or anything. Also just very nice and easy to converse with in general. Went for a Tuesday karaoke night and it was good fun. I wish this place had been the way it is now when I lived down the street but oh well. I recommend it now as its a lot better than what Ive heard people say of the old ownership and older places before it was rose hideout.

Pre 2020 this was a wonderful place Id frequent for food/drinks and comedy nights. But those days seem long gone and much has changed. Still one of the busier places in Kirkland/Redmond but the spark is gone. The cold sloppy service was particularly underwhelming, but little things like the complete lack of beer/beverage/happy hour menus adds to the perception of a business with little motivation left anymore.

This place is one of my favorite bars in King County! Its got a very friendly airspace if you know what Im talking about. Id call it one notch higher than a dive bar and nothing fancy. The crowd is anywhere from hardcore blue collar up to white collar management types and super friendly. It has a live entertainment section with tables on one side, a pull tab section and pool tables on the other and great service all about. Hefe was my server yesterday and she is SO THERE with your next drink and a smile. Oh, and the pints are filled to nearly the top which Im a HUGE stickler on. I cant stand it when they leave TONS of room in the glass where beer should be, and not air. Ive been coming here for a little over a year now on and off with the pandemic and will keep it on my weekly go to list. There are tons of TVs showing tons of channels (sports) and theyll put something on your closest set if you want to watch something. Parking is easy, plentiful and free as its in a strip mall setting. The bathrooms are very clean! The food is really good and they dont have a problem tweaking your dish i.e. if you want the wings extra crispy? No Problem. Happy hour deals are indeed deals and not the dollar off an $8 drink like some places. They have Touch Tunes so you can jam your favorites. Most of the staff seem to like to hang out after their shifts too so ya know its inherently a nice place otherwise theyd Yabba Dabba Doo outta there as soon as they no longer had to be there. I bartended at Purdue and know what this is all about. This place is about 2 minutes off of 405 in Kirkland and very easy to get to. Ok, so nothings perfect and Id say Ive only had one rude server so far (twice, same person), the catty type with no manners, with her boyfriend off to the side with the mentality shes too good to serve people, seemingly. Regardless, this place is about as good as it gets with me.

Live music on Saturdays is always a plus and they even host comedy nights once a month. Food menu is worlds apart from other bars in the area and priced accordingly.

Review №124

Great atmosphere. Went to see some live music and an old friend, ended up staying for several hours, had appetizers, many drinks and a great time. The live band played music everyone seemed to enjoy, with dancing availabe. Came back a second time to watch sports and although the game did not end the way I envisioned, the whiskey burger I consumed was above one of the best burgers Ive enjoyed in quite some time.Highly recommend if you are in the mood for a great watering hole with great food, lots of entertaining things to do from pull tabs, billards, dancing, listening to live music, watching and cheering for your favorite sports venue, or just enjoying a couple of drinks, The Lime will be a place you need to visit on your bucket list. I only wish it was closer to home.

The portions here are very good on all the lunch specials that ive tried. The best value is the all you can fish and chips on Fridays. The fillets are more than just snacks, they are basically whole sides. Service has been great and food is relatively quick that I have time to finish my meal with time to spare during my lunch hour.

Review №126

The food here is awesome. I had a chicken, bacon, avocado, cheese, and egg salad called the CBRG, and they even give you the option to turn your salads into wraps, which I did! Yum. They also feature live music, crowd involved games, dart, and pool. Friendly atmosphere, and a great vibe!

I have come to this bar many times in the past and have had a good review. I feel obliged to change this review after the events thats happened tonight. This bar had the most unprofessional staff I have ever seen in my life. The bartenders were rude and the owners were extremely unprofessional when dealing with the patrons. There were fights happening and overall it is a bar I would never go to again and would highly recommended not attending. Terrible experience and would rate below 1 star if I could.

Great place to party if your that type. The alcohol flows very freely and you may not remember what you did last night but isnt that half the fun of going out!

Review №136

Dont order the wings... Well do... but order 2 half orders. The full is 7 wings for $12 or half order is 4 wings for $6... Do the math. Must be a new cook in the kitchen Friday night... Bacon prawns were overcooked, wings came out with the wrong sauce, food took 30 min to come out. Waitress is trying her damndest to make the rounds, but shes the only one on shift... bad scheduling is the only thing I can think of. I dont know about yall, but if Im dropping money to go out Id like the service to be on point as well as the food. Normally decent place to grab a tanker of primo local beers with a shot to wash it down... But tonight was severely disappointing.

If you are in Kirkland and want to see live music on a Friday or Saturday night, this is the place to go. You can catch all kinds of bands like Hysteria Def Leppard tribute, Dr Crue - Motley Crue tribute and Hair Nation there. The bar food is pretty decent and they have a great selection of beer and other drinks. The staff is always very nice and attentive and the food comes up pretty quick. They even have a great Brownie and ice cream dessert that I actually really love. So if youre in Kirkland and are looking for a bar to go grab a drink and or a quick bite, check this place out.

This is a very fun casual sports bar. Pool tables, darts, live music and lots of TVs to watch sports. There is also a large free parking lot with handicap parking. The bathrooms are large and the a handicap stall. This seems to be a over 21 bar, so not a place for kids.

It was chosen for retirement party. We work in Everett, so it was considered worth the drive. Drinks were ok.

The party cake was superb. Yummy. Will go again...

In my opinion, this place lacks character and friendly bartenders. I used to be regular when a husband and wife owned and worked the bar at this place and it was called Valhalla, it was a fun place to hang. It feels soulless now. 12 ppl at the bar and the bartender doesnt take your order for 10 mins on a Friday afternoon. It could be an isolated incident.
