I normally dine at this location during lunchtime so tonight it was so different experiencing the vibe. After a very loud thunderstorm I decided to grab some Mexican for dinner. I was in mood for soup. Salt and Lime has a chicken poblano chowder on menu, the description in menu can't match the flavor of course. It's so smooth, creamy chowder with the freshest ingredients. Potatoes cooked to perfection, smoked flavored chicken, corn, bacon and cilantro so fresh, you will be looking on the patio for herb garden it must have grown in. Bringing all these simple ingredients together with cream and poblano elevates a simple chicken chowder into a meal. The crispy tortilla strips are just right crunch . My server was so diligent, not forgetting me dining al fresco. Beef empanadas are a fav of mine and tonight's were super flaky, light empanada dough cooked to perfection and spicy side dip plus I also like a tad of guacamole with mine. Another wonderful dining experience not many establishments keep consistent quality in staff and food Salt and Lime does! read more

This is one of my family's favorite restaurants! The food here is great- we get the dip trio (the queso is the best) and they have a nice variety of salsas you can choose from. Their sangria is great as well! For mains, the steak fajitas are tasty. My grandpa loved the carne asada with shrimp. Overall, there are a lot of great, tasty items on the menu. The inside is very cute as well, it's nicely decorated and the staff are friendly. Overall, we recommend salt and lime! read more

Food terrible. Service terrible Waitress was talking with bartender as we waited for our food which was then while not hot read more

We always enjoy coming in with our friends to this location. The staff members are friendly and the wait is never too long. It can be a little loud at times, but I chalk it up to lots of people enjoying their company! The food hasn't disappointed. Everything is made fast and served right on time. It is flavorful and I never have to add seasoning to my entrees. The servers have always been attentive as well. Bartenders have been more than accommodating when I had a specific request that was actually off the menu and wanted to try. They know their brands and their flavor profiles! read more

We had an amazing lunch today at Salt & Lime Cabo Grill in Raleigh, North Carolina! The restaurant has a nice atmosphere, friendly service, easy parking and great food. My husband had the Cabo Chicken and really enjoyed it and said he would definitely order it again. I had the Nachos and they were delicious. Definitely not your normal nachos which I found refreshing and light. We would definitely recommend and will absolutely be going back! read more

We were so looking forward to trying this spot but sadly, it was a very disappointing experience. We sat at a high top by the bar and the service was just horrible. It was not busy and I'm talking about 25 minutes before being able to order, never being checked on, having to flag down the male bartender who was serving us constantly and repeatedly to get anything, including our check. The food wasn't bad but didn't make up for the service. Definitely the worst service we've had in many years. read more

Everything we tried here was amazing Queso, guac, salsa, chips, Bangkok shrimp tacos, queso rice (all not pictured but amazing!!) my drink tasted super fresh! Would definitely recommend read more

Being from San Diego and having traveled around Baja and Cabo a bit, we were surprisingly impressed with the food. I think it could hold up pretty well even in SoCal, and that's saying something. Definitely recommend it and will absolutely be back for more. read more

the food is great and the ambiance of the restaurants is stylish and cozy. I particularly liked the number of vegetarian options.

I'm struggling to write up this review. The service was good, the atmosphere was good, and the food was good but a few things stood out that had me pause and really think about coming back in the future. As I reflect the first point is I was not provided with any chips/salas like at most Mexican restaurants, I'm not sure if this is standard operating procedures or an oversight but I didn't ask and will own that and don't think it's necessarily fair for me to "hold that against them." The other thing I have to share is the pricing was not something I can get on board with! $17 for 3 birria tacos?! After the tacos, one margarita and tip I spend $40 on a subpar meal/dining experience. Sadly, I will consider other places where my money will go much further in the future. read more

Love Love Love it!! Its worth the price and the service was great. I will return again!

I don't know what took me so long to try this place out! Everything was amazing. Pork belly tacos were great Gouda grits ooooh my god the corn in it takes it to another level. Wife had mahi tacos and prob the best I have ever had. The drinks were just as good to match the food. We had the beach bum and a mojito. We will definitely be back and if your wanting Mexican with a twist this is the spot of all spots. read more

We have been here several times since the location opened and the staff has always been fanstatic as has the food you will not be disapointed. read more

Not the best service and food was over the top spicy. House salsa was more of a tomato soup. Not a fan.

Cute place! Great food. Pictured is the chilli relleno and chicken tacos (try them grilled!) the crunchy black beans on the tacos was a delicacy I have not had before. Cheers read more

Great spot! My favorite place to DoorDash from due to the quick deliveries and consistency. Also love eating in as the staff and environment make it a pleasurable experience. Recommend the surf and turf burrito and the spicy shrimp tacos! read more

Salt and Lime has always been my go-to for Mexican food in the Triangle. However, I'd always gone to the other location, so now that I live in Raleigh now and this location is closer, it only made sense to visit. I took a seat at the rectangular-shaped bar as I was coming in solo. They have so many tequilas and spirits displayed that they could put the local ABC store to shame. They do have various 3-tequila flights available at different levels, depending on how much you are willing to pay. For a cocktail, I tried their spicy watermelon margarita, which was a monthly special for July. It was pretty good, but it seemed like most of the spice was on the rim of the glass rather than in the cocktail. The drink was decent, the watermelon flavor was quite strong, I don't think I would order it again. Just looking for a snack, I got chips with sides of regular guac and Carribean salsa. I appreciate that the chips are not only homemade but served warm and seasoned with more than just salt. Plus the many salsas and guacamoles are made freshly, the proof is in the taste. Service was fair enough, it didn't stick out too much positively or negatively. read more

We grabbed drinks at House of Hops then headed over here for dinner. I started off with a beer and we split the queso dip and pico de gallo salsa. For our entrees it was the salmon tacos and a side of fried plantains for my husband and the key-lime mahi mahi and an El Jefe margarita for me. The food, drinks and service were all good. This place does fill up so get there early if you do not want to wait. read more

Best quest dip ever!!! Smoky smooth flavor in Blanco cheese!! Heard about it before going and it lived up to all they say!!

This spot has delicious food and the legendary margaritas were nothing short of amazing. We will definitely be back next time we are in town. read more

The food is Excellent! Fresh and the portion size was perfect. Ordered the taco Tuesday special with rice and beans. Delicious!

We really enjoyed our meal! We ordered calamari and ceviche for starters. Both were so flavorful! The calamari was so tender. I got the carne asada tacos for my main. It had a really good balance of flavors. My sister ordered the steak burrito. It is definitely smaller than your average Chipotle burrito, but it honestly was the right amount. Then we had their molten lava cake which came with delicious ice cream made in house. We loved the ambiance as it had so much greenery. We came on a Thursday afternoon right after watching a movie next door, so it wasn't packed which we liked. We would definitely come back again. The service was so nice! read more

Service was attentive. Food was ok. Chips came with enough salsa to eat 1/4 of the chips and we were charged for both chips and salsa. Additional salsa was more $. Fajitas were ok but came with 3 very small tortillas. There was a charge for extra tortillas. Actually needed two extra charges of tortillas to finish fajitas. This will definitely be the last visit to this establishment. read more

I had the Cabo egg rolls and carne asada tacos. They were amazing! Close to the airport and great ambiance..

Love the atmosphere! The presentation from the time you walk know the door. You know it's gonna be good! From the many delicious food & drink choices, this place does not disappoint! Enjoy! read more

Let me start by saying David G is a complete and utter moron. The food, staff, and vibe are incredible. David G humiliated himself in the restaurant and on this site with that review (we witnessed his tantrum). What a crybaby entitled man child! We visit this establishment weekly and can't speak highly enough about the entire operation. Everyone should visit! New menu is incredible. Good riddance, David G! read more

Went here tonight with family. We were able to sit within 2 minutes. The queso with chorizo was very good! We ate it all. I wish it was bigger. I ordered the Cabo street chicken. It had lots of flavor. The restaurant is nice inside as well. I will definitely go back again. read more

I have dined at Salt & Lime Grove Barton a few times now since it is local for me and super convenient. I typically visit during evenings for drinks and meals with friends. The service is always excellent and we have a favorite staff member who also works the bar. Recently the food has gotten better here & I enjoy a few menu items. The apricot habanero wings, chips & Queso, the cucumber jalapeño margarita and my favorite now is the Brisket & short rib Cabo burger with sweet potato fries. The brisket & short rib are moist, the burger is massive the sweet potato fries are thick, well seasoned and delicious. A excellent choice if you're hungry. I joined a friend for lunch today and they have great lunch specials. There's something for everyone to enjoy on the menu. There is patio seating, bar seats and lots of dining room tables. read more

We had such a lovely experience here! Everything was super fresh and delicious. I had the avocado and tomato salad SO fresh and flavorful.. We also tried a few appetizers that were really tasty, and my husband enjoyed his shrimp tacos (he said they were perfect). What also stood out, though, was the service. We were lucky to have Alex as our server and he was just wonderful attentive, friendly, and genuinely kind. He made us feel so welcome without being over the top. We're definitely coming back and trying the drinks. Highly recommend! read more

There aren't enough words to express how amazing this place is. One of the absolute best meals I've had in the triangle area, living around the area for 8 years. The vibe and atmosphere is great. The drinks were excellent. Huge portions. Had the tacos and burrito, both had so much meat. The flavors were amazing. Our waitress was very attentive and checked on us often. This place is a must try. read more

This is the second location in the area so I was excited to visit based upon videos that I've seen on social media. This location is def larger than the other location. There is a parking lot outside and many tables inside. A huge bar is also inside of the restaurant. Our server came over right away and introduced himself. He was nice and very attentive. The restaurant offers lunch specials. For starters I got an order of queso that came with a big basket of seasoned tortilla chips. The queso was really good. For my entree I got the mahi tacos. The lunch tacos came with three tacos. The issue I had was that the mahi was bland. I didn't taste any seasoning at all. If I came back I would try another dish. read more

Decided to give this place a try based on NC Eat & Play recommendations. Spouse enjoyed his traditional margarita and grilled BBQ Mahi Mahi street tacos. I tried his and found the fish a bit overcooked and under-sauced. The guac, salsas, and queso are good but the appetizers were probably a mistake with just two people to help share, and affected our appetites. We both had no trouble cleaning up a dessert special of peach & cherry streusel with vanilla ice cream and fresh mint. My monthly special entrée was a deconstructed grilled creamed enchilada with spinach, cheese, shrimp, and baby scallops. I found it a bit under-seasoned, but the spouse tried it and liked it so we just packed it up and took it home. If I were to go back, I'd go for the beer battered fish tacos or a salad. The staff, from the seating hostess to the server, were very helpful and prompt. The restaurant interior was pleasant, modern, and clean. I think we may favor a Gonza or Dos Taquitos flavor profile locally, but this was a good night out and we enjoyed our evening :) read more

Thank you Sarah (our waitress) for your hospitality and recommendations. You were spot on. Cabo burger, ceviche, chips with extra house seasoning and trio of dips. All so good. The sweet potato fries need to be on everyone's table for Thanksgiving. And that spicy house margarita, yes, yes, yes. We'll be back. read more

Tonight was an underwhelming experience. There was no sparkle at the front by the hostess as we put our names on the waitlist, maybe it's the time change or maybe just a Friday blues. Nonetheless, they didn't appear to want to be at work tonight. We usually order the Cabo burger which is top notch but tonight I chose adventure. We ordered the Baja trio dip as an appetizer which was good. Go with the pineapple dip. I ordered the cheese smothered chicken tinga enchilada. It was good but there was no wow factor that made me feel like I was in Cabo. My fiancé had the Baja street chicken and that too was good but no wow factor. That's a bummer because I don't feel the need to explore the menu any further. I will come back for drinks at the bar and maybe some chips and dip. The lister of our first visit has worn off. I'll be back..... but for drinks. read more

Saw this place on Instagram and wanted to check out their new location. Jeff, the bartender, made excellent drinks and service! We ordered the Queso, House salsa, Calamari to start - all delicious! However, the Bangkok shrimp tacos were very sweet and not good at all. We sent it back and got the carne asada tacos instead - which were not much better, as the tortillas fell apart easily. They need to work on the quality of the tacos. Otherwise drinks and apps were excellent. read more

Came in just before closing time on a Friday based on Yelp reviews. Staff was happy to have us despite being close to closing time. Waiter (Thomas) knew the menu and accommodated some food allergies well, made great recommendations ("do this over that") which always helps when navigating a new spot. Goat cheese guac is great. Salmon tacos and shrimp tacos were solid. Plantains and Street corn sides also terrific. We will be back. read more

We normally go to the original location, but the newer spot ended up being more convenient this time. Glad to report that it's keeping up!

NACHOS with carnitas is almost all I should say but that wouldn't do this place justice! I loved everything! We had so many things on the menu and not one complaint! It was all so good and hit the spot if you are looking for quick and upscale. Violet waited on us and was excellent and attentive! read more

Wanted to try a new place in the area and came across this restaurant based on the positive reviews. We started with the queso and brussels sprouts, which did not disappoint! For our main courses, we got the fajitas which came on a plate as opposed to the normal skillet but they were still delicious! Also tried the surf and turf burrito which was a nice portion and very filling. Ambience is very nice and perfect for either a big group or fun date night! read more
