What a cool spot to drink at with friends on third. This place has tasty drinks and shots to try. There is also a speakeasy in the back that is smaller than their main room. I will say their drink menu is slightly small and don't have too many shots options, but it is still a great spot to hang out at and have a good time. The service has always been awesome for me. Overall a great spot to try! read more

We visited Lime in the Coconut for the first time to celebrate a birthday, and unfortunately the experience was very disappointing. From the start, our server was inattentive and seemed completely dismissive when we mentioned we were celebrating a birthday. There was no acknowledgment at all, which made the occasion feel overlooked. To make matters worse, on a Friday night they were out of all draft beer, which was surprising for a restaurant and bar that promotes its tropical cocktails and lively atmosphere. Dessert was the biggest letdown. The mango sticky rice was honestly one of the worst versions we've ever had--poorly prepared and lacking flavor. The chocolate cake was so dry that it was practically inedible. The tropical décor and hidden tiki speakeasy "X" are interesting concepts, but the poor service and disappointing food overshadowed what should have been a special birthday celebration. We left feeling let down and will not return. read more

This place was at the top of my list of restaurants to check out and it is so incredibly unfortunate that I couldn't even stay to check out the fair. Whoever the young man is that is a part of the wait staff needs a re-set. His less than inviting demeanor coupled with his nonchalant rattling off of a laundry list of menu items they did not have available from their menu made my first time here my last time here. Only an hour or two into the start of their service, quite the shame, truly. read more

I like the ambiance here. Super spacious! Only came here for cocktails and want to try their food another day. The cocktails were good. Their specialty are Rum drinks, but I'm not a big rum guy. However I did enjoy my drink. The service was outstanding the gals kept checking in on us making sure things were going well. I'll come back with some of the homies next time to try the food! read more

This is our second time here in a year and we came back because our first time was really good. Parking can be a hit or miss so once you find a spot, take it! Food: coconut shrimp was delicious, perfectly fried. Our main dishes were a little slow coming out which was surprising because we were 1 of 2 tables being occupied so it didn't seem busy but maybe it was between shifts since the bartender was also our server? I got the tofu Bai flight and it was great! The tofu was cooked perfectly and the sauce was a great addition. My husband got the loco moco and after a few bites, realized the hamburger was undercooked. He lost his appetite after that. We brought it to the servers attention and they were kind enough to remove it from our bill. Dessert: the mango sticky rice was good. The rice Krissy's sprinkled on top gave it a nice crunch. Mocktail: Bird of the Paradise was tasty and refreshing. Overall, other than the loco moco, the food was good and the service was slower than usual (almost an hour) for a Saturday at 3pm. Food quality: 4/5 Service: 3/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 4/5 read more

This place was interesting to say the least. First off I think it is way over priced. 5 tiny coconut shrimp for 17.00 I could have bought a box at Costco for that price. The ahi nachos were okay way more chips then ahi, but I expected that. My sliders were meh I was just not impressed. The music was good at first, then it just turned into techno with the same song on replay. The service was great the people there were very attentive and friendly. I just think this place needs a refresher. The happy hour needs more food as well. All in all it was just not our vibe. read more

Updated 2025 review - This place hasn't changed much and is conveniently located on Third Avenue in downtown Chula Vista. There is parking in front of the restaurant and parking in the back in a lot. Parking is not free or validated. Staff is always extremely friendly when we've come. This last time we came with a party of 7-8 people and was able to be accommodated during the holiday. For those that do not know, they offer a "speakeasy" in the back and the Tiki Vibe is date night/romantic and you must make reservations. They offer some of the same food items as a variety of tiki drinks! It is definitely our favorite part of the restaurant. While the food is good, we love coming for the drinks! Our bartenders/waitresses have always been super nice and quick, even though they use fresh ingredients for their drinks. The volcano (I believe that's what it is called) drink is a whole event! Lit on fire and everything! a 5-Star Insta worthy posting! Highly recommend the regular restaurant or the Speak Easy, definitely give them a try and grab a drink or two! read more

Food was good. I'm not leaving my The review for food. Service was really bad. Server kept trying to upgrade. Was so hot with no AC. Old food stuck on menus. read more

This is a cute tiki-themed restaurant (family friendly) with a tiki-themed speakeasy in the back. I highly doubt the speakeasy allows kids. The restaurant is fine. They offer a happy hour of selected foods and drinks until 7 p.m. and who does happy hour until 7 p.m.? I love that. We tried the fries with kalua pork added and it is a massive dish that tastes absolutely wonderful. The fries are big and crispy and excellent. I would come here and get this dish every day, if I could. It is on the happy hour menu and you need to get it.. On the other hand, the musubi balls, also on the happy hour menu, while cooked perfectly, were really just breaded rice balls with tiny flecks of spam. Is spam so precious that no more than a few flecks could be added? This dish was just ok. I was extremely disappointed in the happy your mai tai. It was mostly tasteless. But the night was saved by the Painkiller (served in the speakeasy) which was perfectly made and was creamy, delicious, and wonderful. It also packs a wallop so be careful. I should add they do 8 different mocktails here. I tried two of them and they were both excellent and fairly priced. So, they get big points for the non-drinking mocktail crowd. The speakeasy is darker and, frankly, more fun that the restaurant but there is no reason you cannot hit both of them in the same night, like we did. The decor in the speakeasy if fun and playful. Overall Service was a little spotty in the restaurant but good in the speakeasy. Service in the restaurant needs some work. There is street parking and also a pay lot in the back. I believe the lot is free after 6 p.m. but don't send me your parking tickets if I am wrong. Overall, this is a fun place that is well worth a visit. read more

Overall this is my second time coming. We decided to come to see their Christmas decor/drinks. Overall, the decor was very nice & most drinks were good. We've tried the hurricane fries & the nachos. The nachos were not the best, but hurricane fries are decent if you need a snack. Service can be a little slow & at times they seem to be short staffed. This is a good spot if you want a place to sip & chill in the southbay area. read more

I am honestly appalled by the lack of service and the way we were treated. We were a party of 8 celebrating my best friend's sister's 21st birthday and getting together with friends. One of our friends arrived early and sat at the bar but received no service at all. Once the rest of us arrived, multiple servers walked directly past us, looked at us, and never acknowledged us. We stood there for over 20 minutes without anyone saying hello, telling us they would be with us shortly, or even attempting to help us get seated. The restaurant was not busy, and there were multiple employees working, which made the situation even more unacceptable. We weren't rude or demanding in any way. We simply stood there waiting to be acknowledged. We eventually left and went to another restaurant down the street, where we were immediately greeted and helped. We mentioned our experience at Lime in the Coconut, and the employee there told us they hear similar complaints about the service from customers, which unfortunately did not surprise me. We came in ready to celebrate, eat, have drinks, and spend our money, and instead we were made to feel completely unwelcome. And honestly, if the owner is reading this, please hire me because I can guarantee I would run circles around the staff there when it comes to basic customer service. A simple "hello" or "we'll be right with you" would have gone a long way. Instead, you lost a party of 8 because no one could be bothered to acknowledge us. read more

This visit was truly disappointing. I was there when it initially opened, and everything was great - the food, drinks, and ambiance. This time, everything was the opposite. Nobody greeted us, or told us whether it self serve or wait for the host. There was no one but the bartender serving everyone with occasional help from a kitchen runner. The music was way too loud, and the bartender was doing her best to keep up but it took forever to place our order, our drinks were given to someone else, the food was cold and not good. My sandwich was stale, the side was unappealing, and the burger my friend got was waaaay too salty and dry. Then we had to get up and get the check ourselves, and the bartender tried to charge us for the first round of drinks that was given to someone else. 0.5 stars out of 5. You will not catch me having dinner or drinks there again. read more

I finally came here after several months that I've been meaning to give it a try, since I believe it is closed on certain days of the week. We came in on a Thursday and it wasn't so busy. I decided to give their signature drink, lime in the coconut, and it was actually pretty good. It was kind of small, but had the right amount of taste. I'm definitely open to trying other drinks here. Also got the nachos, they were pretty good. Only complaint and reason why they didn't get a five star was due to the pricing. The prices in comparison to what you get did not really compare. I'd definitely give them another try though and would love to check out their speakeasy room at some point. read more

First time dining here with family for dinner last week. I made reservations but you can walk in. We had so many different types of food, check it all out in the photos. I love the vibe.

My wife and I came here for dinner on a Friday night and had a really solid experience. It wasn't too busy, which made for a relaxed atmosphere. The inside has a nice jungle/plant vibe -- warm, inviting decor that feels intentional without being overdone. Service stood out right away. Our waiter was attentive and checked in often without hovering. I ordered the Pupu Platter during happy hour, and it's a smart move if you want variety. It's just enough food for one and gives you a sampling of different menu items. The Korean-style wings had good flavor and just the right level of spice, though I wish they were a little crispier. The sliders were straightforward -- nothing groundbreaking -- but well made and satisfying. Fries came out crispy, which I always appreciate. My wife had the poke nachos, and those were the sleeper hit. I was skeptical about the pico at first, but it actually added depth and balance. The sauce tied everything together nicely. We also ordered a mocktail and one of their signature drinks, and both were well crafted. Overall, a great dinner with good energy, solid execution, and attentive service. A few small tweaks could push it to five stars, but we'd definitely come back. read more

I've been meaning to write this review for a while now, but a recent incident finally gave me the push I needed. I've been to Lime in the Coconut a few times, and each occasion brought out a different version of me. No matter which Mari showed up whether lively or low-key, I was always welcomed with warmth and grace, even when it may not have been the most convenient. One visit stands out in particular: I arrived with a group on a Saturday night. Fully prepared to be turned away, I began the conversation by saying I understand if you say no, but to my delight, they went above and beyond to accommodate us, seating our party in the speakeasy. I wanted to treat my husband to a scorpion bowl (or two... or more!) for his birthday, surrounded by our entourage.  Not only were we served, but we were treated to the visual delight of fire dancing atop our scorpion bowls. It was a memorable night that left me eager to return. On one visit, I wasn't feeling my best and just needed a calm evening to catch up with a friend. We sat at the bar in the restaurant and were served by a wonderful young man who made the best drink. I ordered his favorite, and the name escapes me, but the bartender can't steer you wrong. We caught up over a drink and an appetizer it was a great night. Most recently, my daughter celebrated her birthday here after we were told we were "too rowdy" at The Luau (their loss!). It's safe to say we wear our joy loudly, and Lime in the Coconut embraced us with open arms. With a big, lively family like mine, we tend to celebrate everything and everyone, and we're grateful for a place that doesn't just tolerate that energy but celebrates it alongside us. Whether you're looking to toast with friends, share a quiet moment, or mark a special occasion with laughter and a few scorpion bowls, this place delivers. Both the speakeasy and the main restaurant serve beautifully crafted drinks, and I've even enjoyed a delicious appetizer or two along the way. Thank you, Lime in the Coconut, for your kindness, your flair, and your unflinching hospitality. We'll be back, most likely loud, happy, and ready to celebrate. read more

Cute little spot and great drinks! Strongly recommend getting the Zombie or Scorpion Bowl Drinks, Hurricane Edamame, Ahi Poke Nachos, Fried Shishito Peppers, Tocino Pork Belly Rice Bowl, and Huli Huli Chicken plate. Those are the BEST plates & drinks that we always reorder every time we go back. read more

So disappointing. Went for happy hour. The wings were so poorly flavored and felt low quality. The sliders and fries were okay. My Mai Tai was like a big drink of ice and some flavored water. Easily the worst cocktail I've ever had. Nice looking place but service and food and drink lacked. Other guests too I could tell were feeling like they were getting poor service and it wasn't that full. read more

So I went to the little bar they have behind the restaurant, it's like a speak easy that's connected to them. This place is still tiki inspired, the service was good, friendly, nice people. The atmosphere was nice, great music and good vibes. The drinks were ok but the food was not that great, I got the steak or beef yakisoba and it was awful, I'm sorry I hate to say that but it's true. Overall, I'd go just for the drinks or try another item, definitely a cute place to check out though. read more

Lime in the Coconut - Tangerine Dream - Japanese Near Me - Chula Vista, California

I went here with my friends and had one of the most confusing and disappointing restaurant experiences I've had in a long time. We had a reservation for the speakeasy 'X' and arrived a few minutes early. Instead of being welcomed or given any direction, we were bounced between the front and the back with pretty much no communication. It already felt disorganized before we even sat down. When we were finally seated in the speakeasy, the menus we were given very clearly said "X Happy Hour 5-6pm". But when we asked the server about happy hour, she told us there were no food or drink specials. Then, in the same breath, she said she could do a $9 mai tai or martini... except she didn't actually have olive juice to make a martini. So basically no real specials and nothing that matched the menu. We decided to move to the front because at least the menu said the same happy hour applied there too. Unfortunately the experience didn't get better. We sat at the bar for nearly 20 minutes without anyone greeting us, giving us menus, or even offering water. When the bartender finally came by, the explanation of the happy hour specials was vague and unhelpful. She was talking to us like she was annoyed we even asked. We ordered 3 mai tais, hoping a tiki bar could at least get the basics right, but all 3 drinks were pretty much undrinkable. Mine tasted off immediately like ingredients were missing or the orange juice was sour or bad. None of us finished our drinks. My friend even complained about the drink in front of a server and nobody said anything. We also ordered a happy hour appetizer that came out cold and tasted like frozen food. At that point we just paid and left to eat somewhere else. I was disappointed because we left and paid with our drinks untouched and the bartender told us to have a great night. I wish she asked if she could maybe remake the drinks... What's frustrating is that the concept and the decor are genuinely cool, so I really wanted to enjoy this place. But the service, communication, and quality of both drinks and food were so poor that I can't see myself returning. read more

They had a speakeasy pop-up during Christmas, so we checked them out. It looked like they were closed, but the entrance was towards the back. They had an inflatable Santa and Santa hats, along with tiki decor. We weren't too hungry, so we shared the pupu platter. It included some wings, coconut shrimp, nachos, and fried balls. It was a lot pretty good! For drinks, I got a mocktail and hubby chose the Sippin' Santa. The drinks were refreshing and came in cute mugs! Since it was in November, there were hardly any other groups, but I did run into a friend. I would love to come back when it's more lively and try their other menu items! read more

Manny and Sapphire are cool ! They helped us out with our order and everything we needed.

Ate at this place for the first time last night. I had their salt and pepper wings during happy hour as well as their Mai Tai. Which were pretty good. I did think their happy hour prices were very good and worth it but I did notice an exceptionally long wait time in between ordering and receiving our food. At first I thought it was because we were a large group (9) and maybe that's why service was a bit slow but I did notice one of my friends ask what kind of draft beers they had and the waitress said "I'm not sure I'm just filling in for someone" and she did this quite often. My friend actually just got up and went to the bar to ask what was on draft. So I wouldn't say service was as great; also considering that there wasn't too many people in the restaurant itself. The service aspect was a bit strange. It's very nicely decorated. After happy hour we went to the back to check out the speak easy. It was nice that we didn't need a reservation and were just walked over from our dinner table to the speakeasy itself. read more

Lime in the Coconut, located in the heart of Downtown Chula Vista off 3rd Ave. Street parking can be a struggle depending on when you go but, there is a parking lot located behind the restaurant that is free parking after 6pm. Nice venue with an open-air dining concept that can accommodate large parties with an Island Vibe feel! Everything about this spot was on point! From customer service, to food, stiff drinks, and the whole vibe of the restaurant! We ordered: Coconut shrimp - lightly coated with coconut (which was a plus), perfectly crispy and not overcooked Chicken wings (salt & pepper) - crispy outside and juicy inside, perfectly cooked and delicious Musubi (pork belly) - Oh My! Pork belly was melt in your mouth tender! Not all fat neither! It had a good portion of meat to fat. Definitely a MUST TRY if your a fan of pork belly. Vegetable stir fry - Could use a bit more flavor or spices but, perfectly cooked where there was still bite/crunch to the veggies. If in the area, definitely give this location a try! Enjoy good food, stiff drinks, and jam out to Island Jams while enjoying your meal! I had the pleasure of meeting the owner Mr. Kevin. He was very nice and very interested on our opinion of the customer service we received as well as how we liked the food. Tell Mr. Kevin, Elizabeth sent you. We will definitely be back for more with Ohana! read more

Hate to give this a 2 star rating. But the food was below average and unfortunately, you come here to eat and this place was meh at it. It's a bit pricey for what you might expect to pay at another spot for the same food. The table ordered Yakisoba Noodles, Chicken Wings, Shrimp Tacos and Bánh mì. The wings were saucy. The tacos were a bit overcooked. The Bánh mì were overpriced and lacked a lot of flavor (I think they need to pickle the onions a bit more). The noodles weren't too bad. The tofu I ordered was cooked to perfection. So that was a positive. The drinks I'd give 4 stars. Came in tiki cups. Super tasty. Not a thing I'd change. They are up there in price. So I only had one. Only thing I'd change is that I'd have more offerings that doesn't involve orange juice. Felt like half the drinks had OJ in it. I'd give the ambiance 3 stars as well as the employees. It was cute and they were pretty fun to be around. read more

Went here on a Friday night with one of my girlfriends for a quick catch up and easy dinner. We were happy to catch them during happy hour so that was nice in and of itself. Walking in, they definitely have the theming down. Its a beautiful island themed spot, nice and open, with plenty of seating and a bright bar. We ordered margaritas and shared the nachos with ahi poke. Our server was very sweet and made sure to check in on us a couple of times throughout our dinner. The margaritas were pretty yummy and we opted for the tajin rim. I wish it was slightly more boozy, but it still was delicious. The nachos were yummy and filling. I loved that they were wonton chips and the poke was nice and fresh. It wasn't a skimpy amount of fish either, nor a skimpy portion. I think my girlfriend and I barely ate a corner each and we were stuffed! I know this spot also has a secret little speakeasy that we didn't get a chance to check out but if given the chance, I'm sure we would have. Overall, a solid place and a great addition to the Chula Vista scene. I would like to come back here with my husband or even more girlfriends just to also get a chance to enjoy the speakeasy and a couple of their other offerings. read more

Escaping to Lime in the Coconut felt like a tropical getaway. From the moment I stepped in, the island vibes took over, slowing down time. The diverse menu, curated by executive chef Jeremy Galapon, offered a delightful journey through Hawaiian, Filipino, Vietnamese, Japanese, and Caribbean flavors. It was a vacation in every bite, a blissful escape without leaving the dining table. ‼Drop me a message and I'll tell you about what I tried or my top favs! Lime in the Coconut also has a cool secret - a hidden spot underneath where you feel like you're in a tropical paradise called "X." It's away from the busy crowd, a fun place for the daring, a cozy spot for the curious, and a special spot for those who love unique experiences. But remember, you'll need reservations to get into this cool hidden place. Meeting the owner, Kevin, added a personal touch to the experience at Lime in the Coconut. The customer service, led by an exceptional team including Lilly, Jules, and Cassy, exceeded my expectations. Their attentiveness and warmth enhanced the overall enjoyment of the evening.

Great vibes, great venue in San Diego. My family and I visited from the East Coast and I definitely enjoyed my drinks. Nothing much to say besides the usual tiki bar vibes. Drinks are fairly strong but definitely good. Their signature drink based on their bar name was the best, compared to the Passion of the Tiki, and King Kamehameha. I didn't try their foods, but I bet it would be great with the drinks. read more

The Ahi pokè is super delicious and fresh. The Garlic Noodles with pork belly would have to be my favorite. They did unfortunately run out of edamame which I was disappointed.

Just ate here on Sunday July 20 2025! Food was kinda good when it finally came out 20 minutes after we ordered. Fish and chips was under cooked so the batter was a little raw, crispy pork tacos were tasty, and my wife liked her salad. Service was bad! We got 2 glasses of water and then no more water for us! There were 4 of us and one was a toddler. Waitress seemed tired and over it, bartender wasn't much help either. This guy couldn't even help me with ketchup!! It took about 10 minutes to have someone take our order to where i thought we were doing it wrong. I had to ask if there was an order window or table app! I own a small business and I hate giving small businesses bad reviews but today I wanted my money back. It's been years since I didn't tip. Owner needs new staff and I know it's hard to get good help now days. Sorry I might go back when I have time without a 2 year old. We can pound a few beers and we won't care about the super long wait time but never again with little ones. read more

Came here super hungry after comi-con with 4 super hungry kids too. We first went to a restaurant across the street but they started playing super loud live music and the kids couldn't even hear each other talk. So since this was nice and quiet, mellow we skadoodled over here to enjoy a peaceful meal. Service was prompt, the restaurant wasn't busy whatsoever. The host was super kind and as our server made her way to our table she was great as well. The restaurant was super cute! Very aesthetically pleasing, roomy and comfy. We started by ordering an appetizer. I picked out the Pupu plater which includes wings, fried Misubi balls, nachos (you pick the flavor) and coconut shrimp. For the nachos we chose the Kalua pork. And this is where it started to go downhill the fried misubi balls had a good flavor for the breading but I couldn't find the spam. The wings had no seasoning whatsoever, and the nachos had some hot sauce we weren't expecting that was way too hot and none of the kids enjoyed. The kalua pork was bland. Sadness 2 of the kiddos ordered the moco loco. I was excited as my son has not had it before and I love moco locos. The plate was MASSIVE! I was like perfect! Hungry teenagers will be satisfied. But it was quite the opposite. The beef was WAY too salty, the gravy was pretty bland and the rice was crispy and too overly garlicky. My son's ground beef steak was undercooked and so were his eggs, the breading on the meat was also falling off, I tried it because I know kids can be picky. But I wouldn't eat it either. The other plate wasn't undercooked but still didn't taste good. I ordered the huli huli half chicken, with a side of steamed rice and vegetable stir fry. And more sadness begins. Well, the chicken was hard to separate the pieces, the skin had the right crisp but the wrong seasoning it was WAY too salty in some parts and sweet in others. There was no consistency in any of the flavor and I picked at different parts of the chicken. My steam rice was crispy. Steamed=soft, not sure why it was crispy. And the vegetable stir fry deserves the name of peppers stir fry, as that's all I got with the exception of maybe 3 ultra thin slices of carrots, and it wasn't savory at all. My other kid ordered Da Burger... one bite in and was done, ate some French fries which I tried and had no seasoning at all, the ketchup was sweet. Fourth kid only ordered French fries ‍ I really really wish this could've been a much better experience and if salty and bland is the flavor they're going for then that's a very specific audience, Hawaiian food isn't flavorless or salty though. I was hoping for some bomb food to go along with an awesome crew and gorgeous restaurant. $180 and left all the food, didn't take the left overs because no one would eat them, only the burger/fries made it home for some odd reason but it's been left untouched. It's hard to say I'd come back, I like the food I pay good money for to be good tasting too and this was far from it. Left me sad after a long day read more

The server was great. The kitchen was terrible. There was 6 of us, and over a course of about 45 minutes our food all came at different times. The last plate was served after everyone was done eating. If management doesn't do something with the kitchen, they will be out of business shortly. We ordered a lava cake which took 30 minutes to get after the last plate was finished. This was our first and last time to visit this restaurant. read more
